Guest speaker: Terence McKenna

PROGRAM NOTES:

WARNING! If you don't want to hear Terence talking about his Timewave idea yet again, then you should skip this podcast.

In this recording, Terence McKenna introduces a concept he humorously names the "Habit Reflex Increment" (HRI). He discusses the need for a unit to measure habit, reflecting on the significance of such a concept in understanding human behavior. McKenna jokes about not naming the unit after himself, contrasting his name with those of renowned scientists like Ohm or Ampere, which he finds more fitting for scientific terms.

He then shifts his focus to a broader philosophical reflection, asserting that the struggle humanity faces is not eternal. He conveys an optimistic message, declaring that "novelty is winning." According to McKenna, the emergence of new ideas and innovations will ultimately prevail, bringing positive transformation and progress.

Of course, you will have to listen to many more little details about the Timewave than a lot of people can put up with.
