  • #26 Black Holes - Part1 : The Death Sentence for Stars (Malayalam)
    Mar 31 2024

    Black Holes are the universe’s strangest and most fascinating objects. Right now, you are orbiting a black hole. The Earth goes around the Sun, and the Sun goes around the center of the Milky Way: a supermassive black hole—the strangest and most misunderstood phenomenon in the galaxy. In this podcast series, we are trying to uncover the weird and wonderful world of black holes, from the collapse of massive stars to the iconic first photographs of a black hole in 2019. A cosmic tale of discovery, here we discuss why black holes aren’t really ‘black,’ that you never want to be ‘spaghettified,’ how black holes are more like sofa cushions than hoovers, and why beyond the event horizon, the future is a direction in space rather than in time. In this first part of the podcast series, Roy explains how Stars are formed and how their graveyards are made from white dots to black holes.

    Apr 4 2022

    In Part one of this two part series,  we addressed why Capitalism failed to deliver on its promises. In this episode we are looking into the economics and morality contrasting Capitalism and Socialism. Does Socialism solve the inherent instability and unsustainability of capitalism? We look into how socialism can make the economic process more democratic and ethical. 

    We will also discuss a number of practical ways socialism can be implemented through the process of democratization of the workplaces and how worker Cooperatives (Workers self directed enterprises) can be a real game changer for achieving economic justice throughout the world.
