The sound quality though

Dr Sapolsky said not to take pleasure in delivering retaliation (when this will actually change the behavior), but I have to wonder, why not? Where does this "should" come from? If the person does not have free will, then them feeling pleasure while delivering retaliation is not something they chose or they can influence, is it?

Can people change by themselves through thinking and reflection and understanding? Please answer me, you both or anybody else who believe in free will?

Actually, the Shih Tzu is the apex of evolution. Just ask one.

This is what happens when Jnanam (knowledge) is at work without Bhakti (devotion). Eventually the knowledge should turn into compassion and love. Otherwise it is useless. These guys are great. ❤

Good grief. This is one of the best podcasts I've ever listened to on this topic. These two are an incredibly good combo.

1:05 agh, it's a strange coincidence that my 77 year old father has recently been diagnosed with this disease. We're checking if it's genetically-linked soon.

Two of the best minds on the planet today.

The sound quality is terrible.

Basically free will is an illusion. Obviously most people feel like they have free will. It doesn't mean they actually have it. It is an illusion like thinking a mirage in the desert and swearing it is a lake. For example, was it your free will what type of home, parents, society, time period you were born in to? No. Yet these things decide what ice cream flavor you will choose.

I absolutely do prefer an intelligent animal companion. Unfortunately, I would prefer it to be in the form of an amphibious alien theropod super-predator, such as a Grenchler from Metroid Prime 2. So it wouldn't need advanced technology to kill me, just enough reason.

Why are they in a cave?

who did this episode first? rick n morty or gravity falls?

Snowball = No Balls

There is so much to disagree with in this discussion, and I really enjoyed listening to it as well.

All of ya’ll that are thankful your dog is dumb/don’t wanna give it sentience is telling enough of how much of an asshole you are to your dog. Hope the little motherfucker goes and bites your dick/titty (male/female respectively) off as a result.

To be fair. Kunstkamera exist. Place where all sorts of concervated mutant and deformed people can be found

The dachshund was bred for hunting. A lot of weird-looking dogs were bred for a purpose, not because they look funny.

I wonder what snowball would do or say when he learns that Rick and Morty abandoned the rest of the family because they screwed up over Morty's selfish needs and Rick's inability to not give Morty a horny potion thing even though they could've saved the rest of the family easily or Rick could've just portal to Morty, stop him from rubbing it on Jessica or cure and isolate Jessica.

Great vid

This could have been a movie, straight up box office numbers right here💯😂, I'm laughing but a plot like this could have been a serious hit in scifi-fi films

Two of my favourites

This is why I haven't fix my dog

RESPECTING SPOLASKY NO DRUG AND ALCOHOL POLICY..I too have never indulged and find it sad that so many people mess with these substances.

This episode made me hug my dog... And thankful nobody decided to give him self awareness. I'm glad he's just a himbo pup and not going snowball on my family bcoz we have plans for his offspring and his mate

Is there audio without shit audio

what a shame about the audio

what about free will in flow state? i think it is the only time there could be a free will, seemingly paradoxical, only once the self is discarded, or rather transcended

what's with the metallic sound?

"Since then [age 13] I have had zero capacity for religiosity, spirituality, or for believing that the universe is anything other than cold, empty, unempathic, and pointless. And I've been depressed ever since" (Sapolsky December 2020). Perhaps Sapolsky's adolescent rebellion against an overly strict religious upbringing, and the resultant depression concomitant upon those decisions have drawn him into an obsessive need to rationalize those materialist presuppositions which he may be unwilling to discard. One’s adolescent rebellion against legalism together with a cultural predisposition which adamantly refutes any hint of theological syncretism should not blind a brilliant mind to that which is. The learned professor it seems has determined not only that there is no God, but oddly enough, that there are no scientists.

See “Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife” (by Eben Alexander M.D.) for an alternative perspective.

sorry, could not listen, terrible audio

>99% of our daily behavior is predetermined by habits to stimuli both external & internal, but there’s that <1% thats determined by a conscious, yet transcendent, will to act Truthfully. What we call “free will” today was known as “divine will” by the wisest men in history.

I am blown away by this. Thank you both so much!

My 62 year old female neighbour during the day at work she doesn’t drink or smoke. After work she is an alcoholic and chain smoker who can’t stop and spends every penny on this illness. One can hold these feelings back for so long and then they come like a tidal wave. Same with yo-yo diets. They can only control for a short time.

Some days it is hard to watch people act out what is essentially a macaque attack...and knowing I am no better....

Someone, help, please - ive been watching Sam Harris for years, and i just dont understand this "we dont have freewill" thing. I can eat an apple,or a banana, something else, or nothing - i am free to chose, therefore i have freewill. I can stay in bed, or go to the park, i am free to chose, therefore i have freewill. Obviously my undertanding of the word must be to blame, but i dont underdtand how else the word "freewill" can be understood...?

When I first saw this I thought of the Stephen Hawking voice, Portal 2, and Argonaut from spy kids.

Reversed

Man is ruled by reason n beast by instinct!! Man has free will to choose between right n wrong ! 👍

Admire Sapolsky interviews, surprise the media lack the interest in his contribution with basic appreciation and not just to act as devil advocate

the eye in the background is very distracting

Depression for me was and is a very strange thing I can recognize it coming now I can be walking and feeling normal when it feels like my energy is draining down through my body into the ground and I'm sinking sinking sinking... I hope that more and more people will realize they're misconceptions. A tough business

i know the solution just get a wolf

“There are those who think that life has nothing left to chance A host of holy horrors to direct our aimless dance …”

Must be such a relief for Sapolsky to finally be interviewed by someone on his intellectual level that knows exactly what he's talking about

The brain is the most important organ in the body, according to the brain.
