Play ā€¢ 54 min

Brian KeatingĀ (@DrBrianKeating) is a professor of physics and astronomy at the University of California San Diego, host of theĀ Into the ImpossibleĀ podcast, and the author ofĀ Losing the Nobel Prize: A Story of Cosmology, Ambition, and the Perils of Science's Highest Honor.

What Jordan Harbinger discusses with Brian Keating:

  • What compelled dynamite inventor Alfred Nobel to annually reward outstanding contributions for humanity, and how would he feel about the way Nobel prizes are awarded today?
  • What is an ethical will, and why should you make sure you have one in place sooner rather than later?
  • How accolades like the Nobel prize and the Academy Awards have taken on outsized importance in their respective fieldsĀ in spite of being selected arbitrarily by an anointed few - with sometimes deadly consequences.
  • How Brian turned around surface losses like getting fired from an academic dream job and missing his shot at the Nobel prizeĀ from disasters into catalysts of great happiness.
  • How you can have a chance at winning a fragment ofĀ the 4.3-billion-year-old supernova that created Earth and the hemoglobin in your blood!
  • And much more...
