What is time? We all live in it, but the moment we try to explain it, it slips away. From Augustine’s famous puzzle to today’s philosophical debates, this episode explores competing theories of time: the Block Universe, the Moving Spotlight, Presentism, and the Growing Block. Do past, present, and future all exist at once? Or is only the “now” real? Join us as we unravel the paradox of temporal passage—and why time might be the most baffling concept of all.
