090 - Reality - Donald Hoffman
Have you ever questioned the nature of your reality? For our guest in this episode, cognitive psychologist Donald Hoffman, that's his day job.
Hoffman has developed a new theory of consciousness that, should it prove true, may rearrange our understanding of reality itself.
Listen as Hoffman talks about the bicameral mind, the umwelt, and the hard problem of consciousness in this mindbending episode about how we make sense of our world, our existence, and ourselves.
