Pete and Jay journey into the meaning of life with Dr. Neil Theise, a world-renowned pioneer in stem cell research and a diagnostic liver pathologist. Neil's career in science and medicine combined with his long-term practice of Zen Buddhism has opened new doors into thinking about consciousness, complexity theory, panpsychism, complimentarity, and other things Pete and Jay had never heard of before.

In Part 2 of 3 Neil ties together his scientific and spiritual backgrounds. Pete and Jay try to figure out whether they experience life any different than ants.
