Third eye drops are intended for open-minded adults.

Now administering the third eye drops. Greetings brothers and sisters I hope your temporal situation is as lovely as mine is right now. It is such a

glorious day outside. I can literally hear the birds chirping and whatever that banging is feeding back into the

microphone I think we can hear birds listen I hear it I guess the simulation is humming perfectly today which on that no let's be honest though

I've certainly been captivated by it and explored it considerably on this podcast.

I also sort of feel as if talk of living in the matrix or a simulation of some kind has kind of

jump the shark. It sort of hit the peak of its usefulness because there are a lot of

obtuse ideas being thrown around as if they're serious philosophy or

science which I'm obviously a world-renowned authority on, but my

point is the majority of these musings, no matter how fascinating or intuitively

tasty they may be are not ever very ontologically filling.

Oftentimes they're more like philosophical junk food that leaves me feeling like I just did something

trashy to myself and to my intellect.

Like I'm soaked in a serum of loosey-goosey ideas that will never be able to really penetrate into or test in any way.

That said, there are a few exceptions, and one of them, probably my favorite one, is our guests on this podcast, Dr. Donald Hoffman.

He'll actually be the first to tell you that he's not trying to prove that we live in a simulation.
