Episode Synopsis

This episode breaks down quantum entanglement, one of the most puzzling phenomena in modern physics, famously called “spooky action at a distance” by Einstein. We explore how particles can remain instantaneously correlated across vast distances, why this doesn’t break the speed of light, and how the EPR paradox and Bell’s theorem proved entanglement is real. The discussion also covers key interpretations of quantum mechanics and explains why entanglement is the backbone of quantum computing, cryptography, and teleportation.
