Who Will We Be

   2015    Medicine
In ‘Who will we be?’ Dr. David Eagleman journeys into the future, and asks what’s next for the human brain, and for our species. We stand at a major turning point, one where we might take control of our own development. We face a future of uncharted possibilities in which our relationship with our own body, our relationship with the world, the very basic nature of who we are is set to be transformed. For thousands of generations, humans have lived the same life cycle over and over. We are born, we control a fragile body, we experience a limited reality, and we die. But science and technology are giving us tools to transcend that evolutionary story. Our brains don't have to remain as we have inherited them. We are capable of extending our reality, of inhabiting new bodies, and possibly shedding our physical forms altogether. And we are discovering the tools to shape our own destiny. Who we become is up to us.

God and the Universe

   2011    Science    3D    HD
Since the dawn of civilization, humans have wondered who or what created the universe. Religion offers a spiritual answer, but do the latest discoveries in physics show evidence of a transcendent intelligence, or simply that the laws of physics by themselves could have led to the universe in which we live? This episode embarks on a mind-bending scientific search for God, asking physicists and theologians if the seemingly miraculous way the universe has been calibrated to support life is evidence of a creator...whether string theory will eventually be able to rule out the existence of God...why Stephen Hawking says the universe could have been created spontaneously...and how an advanced civilization in another universe could have conceivably created our own.

The Rehearsal Season 2 Ep 1-3

   2025    Culture
Nathan Fielder returns with a daring new season that elevates the concept of constructed reality to extraordinary extremes. This season dives even deeper into ethically charged scenarios, where real people rehearse life-altering choices inside meticulously engineered simulations. As the line between performance and authenticity dissolves, the series confronts our deepest questions about control, identity, and the limits of preparation. Disturbing, brilliant, and darkly hilarious—it’s an experience like no other.
The opening three episodes raise the stakes immediately. A father struggles to reveal a devastating truth to his son—but the rehearsal begins to unravel his own sense of self. A woman prepares for a proposal that may never arrive, as emotional tension distorts her reality. And in a startling turn, Fielder inserts himself into the most personal rehearsal yet, facing consequences he may no longer be able to manage. With emotional weight, narrative twists, and biting satire, these episodes pull you in and don’t let go.
