I've loved every talk I've ever had with Kip Thorne. He can make the Really Far Out hit home. Listen to our latest conversation on Clear + Vivid. He won the Kavli Prize and he always wins my attention. I think he's win yours, too.

My friend Carl Reiner died last night. His talent will live on for a long time, but the loss of his kindness and decency leaves a hole in our hearts. We love you, Carl.
