What if reality isn’t behaving the way we think it is?

In this episode of Divergent Files, we explore a question that’s moved far beyond science fiction and into serious scientific, philosophical, and government research: the possibility that reality itself may be simulated — or at least not as fundamental as it feels.

We examine the Simulation Hypothesis, quantum physics experiments where observation changes outcomes, declassified government research into consciousness, and the strange patterns that show up in memory, perception, and near-death experiences. From the Mandela Effect and déjà vu to theories of consciousness as information, the evidence paints a picture that’s unsettling, fascinating, and deeply human.

This isn’t about convincing you of one explanation. It’s about slowing down, laying out what’s known, what’s theorized, and what’s often misunderstood — and asking better questions about the nature of reality and our place within it.

If you’ve ever felt like something about the world doesn’t quite add up…

If you’ve ever wondered whether consciousness is more than biology…

Or if you’re simply curious why so many credible thinkers are questioning base reality…

This conversation is for you.
