About this episode
Arnold Leibovit discusses H.G. Wells' time machine and the science behind time travel concepts. Leibovit examines Wells' vision and whether modern physics supports the possibility of time travel. Dr. Paul Pearsall discusses cellular memory and evidence that consciousness and memories exist throughout the body not just the brain. The conversation explores how consciousness might transcend brain function and exist at the cellular level. Pearsall examines organ transplant cases where recipients acquired donor memories, preferences, and personality traits. The discussion addresses implications for understanding consciousness if cells store memories and contain aspects of personality. Leibovit explores time travel paradoxes and theoretical solutions including branching timelines. Pearsall discusses how cellular memory challenges brain-centric models of consciousness and supports energy/informational views of mind. The conversation examines whether heart transplant recipients truly access donor memories or whether alternative explanations account for these phenomena. The broadcast explores connections between cellular memory, survival of consciousness, and the non-local nature of mind.
