Episode #192
#192: Lasers 101, Particle Physics & Nonlinear Optics ft. G. Ravindra Kumar
Oct 3, 20262h 15m
How do lasers work, and how can extreme laser light be used to study matter at the most fundamental level? In Know Time Episode 192, physicist G. Ravindra Kumar takes us from the basics of lasers to the cutting edge of nonlinear optics, intense light-matter interactions and particle physics. We explore how lasers generate and control light, what happens when extremely intense laser pulses interact with matter, and how these interactions can create extraordinary conditions that help scientists investigate fundamental physics. The conversation also explores nonlinear optics, high-intensity lasers, plasma physics, particle acceleration and laboratory experiments that recreate extreme, star-like conditions. If you're interested in lasers, quantum physics, particle physics, optics, plasma physics and how extreme light can reveal the fundamental nature of matter, this episode offers an accessible introduction to the science behind these experiments. ️ Guest: G.

#190: Fantasy Architecture, Dharavi Redevelopment & Philosophy of Architecture ft. Mustansir Dalvi
Sep 19, 20261h 50m
What does architecture tell us about power, inequality, cities and the way we imagine the future? In this episode of Know Time, architect, poet and writer Mustansir Dalvi joins us for a wide-ranging conversation about architecture, philosophy, Dharavi redevelopment and the idea of “fantasy architecture.” We explore how buildings and cities reflect social structures, Casa Battlo in Barcelona, the Dancing House in Prague, the Blur Building, Fish Building in Hyderabad, who gets to imagine and design the future of a city, and what happens when architectural visions collide with the lived realities of the people who inhabit them. We discuss Dharavi redevelopment, Mumbai, urban planning, architecture and inequality, the philosophy of architecture, speculative and fantasy architecture, public space, housing, displacement, and the relationship between architecture and power. Mustansir Dalvi brings together architecture, literature and philosophy to ask a deeper question: when we design cities, are we simply designing buildings, or are we designing society itself? Watch the full conversation for an exploration of architecture, urbanism, Mumbai and the politics of space.

#189: Black Holes, String Theory, Quantum Physics & Gravity ft. Shiraz Minwalla
Sep 12, 20261h 41m
What happens when the laws of quantum physics meet the most extreme objects in the universe? In this episode of Know Time, theoretical physicist Shiraz Minwalla takes us deep into the world of black holes, quantum mechanics, string theory, quantum gravity, and the fundamental structure of reality. We explore some of the biggest questions in modern theoretical physics: What actually happens inside a black hole? Why is it so difficult to reconcile quantum mechanics with Einstein’s theory of general relativity? Could string theory provide a path toward a theory of quantum gravity? And what can black holes teach us about space, time, information, and the universe itself? Shiraz Minwalla is a leading theoretical physicist whose work spans string theory, quantum field theory, gravity, black holes, and mathematical physics. In this conversation, he explains these difficult ideas in an accessible way while exploring where our understanding of fundamental physics currently stands. Topics covered include: • Black holes and the black hole information paradox • Quantum mechanics and general relativity • String theory and quantum gravity • Quantum field theory • The nature of space and time • Hawking radiation • The holographic principle • The AdS/CFT correspondence • What happens inside black holes • The deepest unanswered questions in theoretical physics ️ Guest: Shiraz Minwalla Podcast: Know Time Episode: Know Time 189 Shiraz: https://www.infosysprize.org/laureates/2013/shiraz-naval-minwalla.html SUPPORT: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/knowtime Anchor: https://anchor.fm/knowtime/support Youtube Membership: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJ-937lA3_s2g5AxdpKQjVg/join Merch: https://know-time-shop.fourthwall.com/ PODCAST: Anchor: https://anchor.fm/knowtime Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/2CjRJPktODLDeHavCNDLGA Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/know-time/id1535371851?uo=4 CONNECT: Youtube: Subscribe!

FAQs

Every question we get asked before
someone starts their trial.

If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.

What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?

Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.

How do agency tiers work?

Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.

What is a talent profile?

A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.

Can I switch plans later?

Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.

Do you offer a free trial?

Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.

What happens if I cancel?

You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.

Is the 20% annual discount automatic?

Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.

What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?

That is our Enterprise tier. Contact our sales team and we will build a custom plan with volume pricing, a dedicated account manager, and SLA guarantees.
