Torvus Podcast S2E6: The Mandela Effect: Alternate Realities or False Memories
July 31 2020: Ari and Jason sat down for an epic geek chat about alternate realities and the phenomenon known as the Mandela Effect. The Mandela Effect posits that there are several time lines we live on and major events like CERN (discovering the god particle) and other rips in time/space have caused us to get pushed from one reality to another. As such, we have memories of events and things that are not true according to the timeline we currently inhabit. Do you remember movie lines? Well, its quite possible JAWS, Silence of the Lambs and Forrest Gump may be different from what you recall. How about your favorite cereal box or logo for a car company? There are so many examples out there.
PLUS: We name the shield in this episode. Ari's good friend Pauly made an authentic viking shield and it hangs in "Valhalla" (Ari's man cave). The shield needed a name and we gave it one tonight!
