Einstein’s 1913 Warning, Variable Light Speed, and Why He May Be WRONG | Jason Verbelli | Ep. 46
In VivoShow Notes
Jason Verbelli, founder of Galilean Variance and CEO/Lead Engineer at SEG Magnetics, argues that Einstein left a written test for his own theory: if the speed of light depends even a little on the motion of the source, relativity and Einstein’s theory of gravitation are false. In this interview we start from first principles and work up through John Searl, magnetic waveforms, free energy vs over-unity, the double-slit experiments, the Casimir effect, and what that would mean for energy, technology, and space travel.
At SEG Magnetics in San Diego, Verbelli and his team are engineering a magnetic motor-generator based on Searl’s layered rings, orbiting rollers, and magnetic waveforms — an open-system device meant to harvest ambient energy and eventually power homes, industry, and vehicles without conventional fuel. The working image he uses is an electric car you never have to plug in.
Verbelli is the surviving apprentice of the late Professor John Searl and author of a four-book series: Light, Gravity, Time, and Coherence. He rejects Lorentz invariance in favor of Galilean Variance and Dr. Edward Dowdye’s Extinction Shift Principle — primary waves extinguished and re-emitted by local matter.

In this episode of In Vivo, I sit down with Dr. Rasmus Rosenberg Larsen, Assistant Professor of Forensic Epistemology at the University of Toronto and author of Psychopathy Unmasked: The Rise and Fall of a Dangerous Diagnosis (MIT Press).
In this episode, NASA space biologist Ryan T. Scott explains why biology, not rocket science, is the real limiting factor in humanity’s goal of becoming a multi-planetary species. We discuss how NASA’s Open Science Data Repository (OSDR) is transforming space biology by making decades of multi-modal data openly available, standardized, and reusable.
