This week Caleb and Steve start the show with a discussion of time and why it is not a base ten system like the metric system. They touch on whether or not we need daylight savings time or not. They also talk about their love for Wikipedia and how great it is to have a resource like that. Caleb touches on how being in the military has benefited him as a graduate student and shares some fantastic sayings he picked up as well. One of them being, "embrace the suck". The guys discuss how life never gets easy and you have to embrace the struggles you have. They also have a brief discussion of simulation theory.

Finally, Steve talks about how strange the perception of time is in that it can change in different circumstances. They talk about how fascinating it is that there are chemicals that can alter your perception of time (i.e. psychedelics). They talk about how psychedelic trips must be similar to what happens when you are dreaming. Steve describes how plants evolve proteins that cause interesting things to happen in humans and what is the difference between a drug and a toxin. Listen to this and much more this week on The Beaker Report!
