This week on That Would Be Rad…

What if your entire life—your memories, your relationships, your struggles, your dreams—was nothing more than a line of code?

What if you’ve already lived 54 million other lives…
...and just don’t remember any of them?

In this mind-bending episode, we dive headfirst into simulation theory through the lens of two radically different but equally fascinating thinkers:

First, we explore the work of physicist Melvin Vopson, who believes time might not be what we think it is—and that entire lifetimes could be compressed into mere minutes of “real” time outside the simulation. From entropy-defying data to philosophical ties to the Bible, Vopson’s theories blur the line between science, spirituality, and something far stranger.

Then we take it a step further with Dr. Roman Yampolskiy and Alexey Turchin, who aren’t just asking if we’re in a simulation…
They’re trying to HACK it.

We’ll break down their ideas on how we might uncover glitches, communicate with the system’s architects, and (maybe) crash the whole thing.

Whether you’re curious, skeptical, or already halfway through building your own digital escape plan—this episode is for you.

So plug in, tune out, and question everything.
Because if the simulation is real… the clock might already be ticking.
