  • Summary

  • If you'd spent your entire scientific career getting nominated for the Nobel Prize ... nominated by all your students and collaborators, many of whom were Laureates themselves ... nominated more times than anyone else, ever ... and yet you never won the damn thing ... how would *you* feel if you met the chaps who received a Nobel for an experiment that utterly failed to find the very thing it was looking for? Chris tells James the story of Michelson, Morley, and their attempts to nail down the luminiferous aether.

    Science, possibly.
    A podcast in which James Lees and Chris Stewart share stories that are definitely science-adjacent.
