Farming didn’t just change what we ate—it changed how we lived, thought, and experienced the world.

In this episode, we explore the origins of agriculture from the Fertile Crescent and the Natufian transition, through early settlements in Anatolia like Boncuklu Höyük and Çatalhöyük, and the spread of farming into Europe with the Linearbandkeramik culture.

Along the way, George ask a deeper question: what did this shift mean for the human nervous system—and for neurodivergent minds?

From mobile hunter-gatherer life to structured farming societies, this episode explores how one of the biggest transitions in human history may still shape how we think and feel today.
