In this episode of the Commune Podcast, Jeff Krasno sits down with New York Times bestselling author Annaka Harris to explore one of the most profound and enduring questions in science and philosophy: What is consciousness?

Annaka is the author of Conscious: A Brief Guide to the Fundamental Mystery of the Mind and the writer and producer of Lights On, a new audio documentary series that investigates the deepest mysteries of mind, matter, and awareness. Together, Jeff and Annaka examine the "hard problem" of consciousness—asking whether it’s simply a byproduct of brain activity or a fundamental aspect of reality itself.

This conversation is a mind-bending journey to the frontiers of neuroscience, philosophy, and the very nature of being human.
