This episode discusses the Eternal Inflation Multiverse - the strongest support from modern physics for an infinite multiverse. This support comes from the theory of inflation and, in particular, from a model for this theory known as eternal inflation. By the time we’re done, you’ll have a basic idea of the theory of inflation and its various models, and see to what extent eternal inflation supports the infinite multiverse premise and doesn’t support the varied multiverse premise. And, you’ll learn a lot of fascinating physics along the way!
