Leonard Susskind joins us to discuss why the crisis in string theory is deeper than most realize, examining its conceptual limits and the search for a more complete quantum gravity framework. We explore the history of the theory, recent critiques, and possible paths forward.- 00:00 - IntroSPONSORS:- The Economist: 20% off discount. https://www.economist.com/toeRESOURCES:- New Substack!
