Episode 9 — Rolling Boulders and Briefcases: A Cosmic Conversation

We kicked off Episode 9 by diving headfirst into the myth of Sisyphus, that poor bastard eternally pushing his boulder uphill, and asked ourselves: can absurdity actually make us happy?

From ancient Greek punishment to Albert Camus writing under Nazi occupation, we explored what it means to find meaning in meaningless repetition. We ranted about billionaires, ROI on our labor, and why trickle-down economics is still a scam 45 years later.

Then we pivoted to Pulp Fiction—dissecting Vincent Vega’s fatal bathroom breaks, Butch’s cursed watch, and Jules’ divine intervention. We geeked out over UK EV disasters, solar panel recycling, and whether brutal truth beats comforting lies. Finally, we launched into cosmic territory: the Hubble tension, dark energy, and whether our universe is just one bubble in an infinite multiverse.
