I love listening to David Albert and anything to do with the foundations of physics. The extra length was fine by me. Definitely bring him back some time and finish the discussion!

Forget the wave function. My brain has collapsed.

"Sadly, we didn't get quite enough time to talk about what approaches to QM that he IS in favor of..." - Sean Carroll on a podcast that's 18 minutes shy of 2 hours.<br><br><br>Alright, let's do this.

I really wish there was another, longer episode of you two talking about these topics. Fascinating, time just flies by so fast listening to it.

Loved the length of this one. Longer is better.

I can’t necessarily follow all of his philosophical reasonings, but I like Albert and it just gives me a reason to listen through the whole conversation multiple times. Rather than just clicking on another introductory lecture on quantum mechanics which will normally will only cover material I’ve already heard a million times.

Smart people who disagree are excellent guests to have conversations with! Thanks for the great podcast Sean.

Wow.. very good conversation. I will admit I'll have to listen to it a second time to really catch it all. Two great minds here having a great conversation.

With a few years' retrospective viewpoint, I think this may be one the finest interviews Carroll has done..
