Episode description

Jim and Randy talk about how special relativity might be amended to incorporate a minimum length scale.  Such scales are common in quantum gravity theories, and in the limit where both QM and GR are less important, QG should induce first order corrections to SR.  We then talk about how these corrections seem to lead to unreasonable paradoxes.
