Once the meaning of it all was simple, if at times also cruel and/or barbaric. The Universe was made by a god, sometimes omnipotent, sometimes fractious, sometimes both. Now, as we explore the Universe and start to explain ourselves, the Universe has started to lose it single meaning and we have to find individual meanings ourselves. This is Tips for Existence where Robin Ince talks to cosmologists, composers, astronauts and authors about what gives them meaning.
Clips included in the show: Various clips from Katy Brand’s Big Ass Show, Clip from Miracle Workers, Clip from Red Dwarf, clip from It’s a Very Merry Muppet Christmas, clip from Mary Poppins, clip from The Infinite Monkey Cage, clip from Bruce Almighty.
