Show Summary
Even given a million years with a million typewriters, can a million monkeys produce the works of Shakespeare? Dr. Benjamin Wiker doesn’t think so. Can random molecules bumping together ultimately produce genius? Join Rick and Lael as they interview Dr. Wiker on how the arts and sciences in general and the complexity and layered meanings of Shakespeare, the elegance and order of Euclid’s geometry, the periodic table, and cellular metabolism in particular reveal the genius of nature and the Genius behind nature.
