Before Albert Einstein became the wild-haired icon who changed how we understand the universe, he was a struggling patent clerk with a rejected dissertation, no job prospects, and a messy personal life. But he had time to spare and a mind that wouldn’t stop. In this first episode of a two-part series, Jonathan Schwab takes Yael Steiner through the Einstein you don’t know: a contrarian Jewish outsider whose ideas would reshape our understanding of time, space, and reality itself.
The series continues with Part 2 — Einstein’s Jewish identity, his complicated relationship with Zionism, and the question the Nazis asked loudly: was his science Jewish?
