درباره این اپیزود
In this episode, we consider the 2014 film 'Interstellar', directed by Christopher Nolan and starring Matthew McConaughey with Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain. Our discussion critiques the manner in which the film appears to support a notion of scientific progress that falls in line with the political projects of imperialist expansion and extractive capitalism. Following an historical exploration of these themes, we consult Karl Popper to help us properly understand the scientific method in order to determine the exact character of scientific knowledge claims. Once this has been ascertained, our discussion concludes by presenting an alternative view of scientific progress that remains apolitical and achieves its validity from a consensus among impartial observers of inductive data. These reflections are washed down with a Corona Extra as well as a gluten free lager from Foxes Rock.
