The Science You Need To Know To Understand Rick & Morty

A cartoon, quantum mechanics and Many Worlds Interpretation.

Just like Kyle Hill says in the video, Rick and Morty has to be one of my favorite TV shows on right now. The combination of dark humor, weirdness, and silliness keeps me entertained each week.

Some episodes, like Rick Potion #9 shown in the video, have a bleak message that send you down some really weird lines of thought. My wife knows I’ve watched one of these episodes because I act weird for an hour.

That being said, Kyle Hill does a fantastic job explaining the Many-Worlds Interpretation of quantum mechanics, the scientific backbone of Rick and Morty. 

So watch the video, then you can subscribe to “Because Science” on the Nerdist YouTube channel.
