Part One: The Very Last Minute

What is it about endings that causes us so much anxiety? A cosmologist explains what the end of the universe might look like, and Jonathan's parents argue about how they'd want to spend their last minute on earth. Plus, a special tribute to Beat poet Gregory Corso. Featuring cosmologist Paul Davies and Buddhist author Sharon Salzberg. Special thanks to Poem Hunter for providing research for our Corso tribute and to Chris Zabriskie for his music.
