    The Year of Quantum

    Quantum computing raises big questions—about security, power, and who benefits as the technology advances.

    Throwback: The Phantom Orchestra

    Happy holidays, everyone. We’re bringing you a hacked classic to tide you over while Scott and I take a break to relax and gear up for the new year to hit us like a ton of bricks. This is one of my favorites from a couple of years ago, back in the halcyon days of June 2022—an interview with music professor Meryl Goldberg that I still think about. It’s got Cold War intrigue, hidden codes, and Klezmer music. Honestly, I want to make a movie about it, so if your 2025 wishlist includes setting a bunch of money on fire producing a film, let me know. Hope you had a happy holiday and a festive new year. Safe travels if you’re on the road, and if you’re home, I hope you’re relaxing. Enjoy The Phantom Orchestra. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

And yes, I'm aware we never actually revisit the intro story during the ep. We apparently had too many broken bones to discuss. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
