Jimmy Barnes, Helen Czerski and Lawrence Leung - Nine Lessons 24 Hour

The Cosmic Shambles Network | Jimmy Barnes, Helen Czerski and Lawrence Leung - Nine Lessons 24 Hour - Part 17 @cosmicshambles | Uploaded 3 years ago | Updated 16 hours ago
At midday on December 12th we staged a 24 hour show, Nine Lessons and Carols for Socially Distanced People, hosted by Robin Ince, full of science, music and comedy for charity. You can now watch almost the entire show in one hour(ish) chunks. With our traditional December shows, Nine Lessons and Carols for Curious People and Robin Ince and Brian Cox's Christmas Compendium of Reason forced to cancel for 2020 we knew we couldn't just leave everyone without their end of year science jamboree.

In this hour we chat with Australian rock legend Jimmy Barnes about his new book and then her performs a song for us. Lawrence Leung does some quantum tricks with a Rubik's Cube and then Dr Helen Czerski makes early morning cocktails. Also, Robin's getting quite tired now.

The Universe was made by a god, sometimes omnipotent, sometimes fractious, sometimes both. Now, as we explore the Universe and start to explain ourselves, the Universe has started to lose it single meaning and we have to find individual meanings ourselves. This is Tips for Existence where Robin Ince talks to cosmologists, composers, astronauts and authors about what gives them meaning.
