In this episode, Matt and Chris converse with Kevin Mitchell, an Associate Professor of Genetics and Neuroscience at Trinity College Dublin, and author of 'Free Agents: How Evolution Gave Us Free Will'.
We regret to inform you that the discussion does involve in-depth discussions of philosophy-adjacent topics such as free will, determinism, consciousness, the nature of self, and agency.
But do not let that put you off!
Kevin is a scientist and approaches them all through a sensible scientific perspective. You do not have to agree but you do have to pay attention!
If you ever wanted to see Matt geek out and Chris remain chill and be fully vindicated, this is the episode for you.
