You're listening to the skeptic's guide to the universe. Your escape to reality.

Hello and welcome to the skeptic's guide to the universe. Today is Tuesday, April 7th, 2015, and this is your host, Steven novella.

Joining me this week are Bob novella. Hey everybody, Jane novella. Hey guys, and Evan Bernstein. Good evening folks.

How are you guys doing today? All right, it's very tired. Thank you Steve.

We have an interview with David Gorsky coming up a little bit later in the show.

This is a special week guys because the protons are flowing. The LHC has they

hit the on switch and stuff's happening. Don't you want to hear that?

I just got to hear that thing turn on. It sounds like this.

It starts exactly. It starts. That's a good one Steve.

We'll be more interesting is the science that comes out of it.

We'll analyze the results and have them in about 18 months I suppose.

Yeah, I mean besides there's another thing that they may find that I read

besides the potential for extra dimensions or new cousins to the Higgs boson and evidence for

super symmetry and other things I found today that they may find something called

unparticles which they're called unparticles that which are very bizarre and I still

need to learn a lot more about but they may be implicated in the magic of

superconductivity. So they might so now the LHC may find or deepen our

understanding of superconductivity which we which would be awesome.

They're also going to be exploring dark matter. Yeah, that's that's fascinating.

Hey, we're at Nexus right now. Oh, yeah. Hey, there you go.

Oh, when you listen to this, we will be. Yes, that's correct and in podcast time.

When when this podcast comes out, we'll be probably recording our live show.
