Whether food, drugs or ideas, "you are what you eat." Learn directly from the best scientists & thinkers about how what you consume influences who you become.
This weekly long-form podcast features conversations with the most interesting scientists, thinkers, and technology entrepreneurs alive today.

They discuss: psychological dissociation; the scientific study of 'neural correlates of consciousness'; the nature of perception and the influence of language on the mind; why the 'Hard Problem' of consciousness is so difficult; Bernardo's philosophy of analytic idealism; Jungian psychology & psychological archetypes; psychedelic experiences with psilocybin, 5-MeO-DMT, and how these could model the phenomenology of organic death.
