There's a lovely Sean Carrol podcast interview with Kip Thorne where he discusses the people and the work that led to the discovery. https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2018/11/26/episode-24-kip-thorne-on-gravitational-waves-time-travel-and-interstellar/ https://www.preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2018/11/26/epis...

  I can second this. The book is still worth getting too but this podcast is an excellent discussion around the subject.

  Talking about Sean Carrol, I'd also recommend his latest book, Something Deeply Hidden - a fascinating, and very readable, exploration of the theories, history and even philosophy of modern quantum mechanics.
