👁We don't \"move on\" from grief. We move forward with it
🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English

👣In a talk that's by turns heartbreaking and hilarious, writer and podcaster Nora McInerny shares her hard-earned wisdom about life and death. Her candid approach to something that will, let's face it, affect us all, is as liberating as it is gut-wrenching. Most powerfully, she encourages us to shift how we approach grief. \"A grieving person is going to laugh again and smile again,\" she says. \"They're going to move forward. But that doesn't mean that they've moved on.\"

👁Dark matter: The matter we can't see - James Gillies

🗣Subtitle: Farsi | English
👣The Greeks had a simple and elegant formula for the universe: just earth, fire, wind, and water. Turns out there's more to it than that -- a lot more. Visible matter (and that goes beyond the four Greek elements) comprises only 4% of the universe. CERN scientist James Gillies tells us what accounts for the remaining 96% (dark matter and dark energy) and how we might go about detecting it.
