"Seeing isn't believing," but the brain believing is how we actually see...what an amazing lecture. I recommend to all viewers to obtain Dr. Eagleman's books, as he explains these perceptual events in great detail.
Dr. Eagleman, I ran across you back when I noticed you were a consultant on the TV series Perception. In fact, I am currently re-watching all 3 seasons of that show even though I watched them all when it was on TV because I truly want to understand the point of view of someone with schizophrenia. I understand it is a TV series and not a scientific series, but it does offer some valuable insight. I really enjoyed the PBS The Brain series and have read all your books. You give me some of the very best headaches because all of this is so confusing to me, LOL, but I learn so much about our brains, which are seemingly just about uncharted territory at this point. Your take on schizophrenia in this podcast is so interesting. I live in a condo complex where we have a resident with paranoid schizophrenia. Sometimes he is the nicest person and other times he is threatening people. Most of the people who live here just think he is a terrible person overall, but I know that he has a brain wiring disruption of some sort and I find it fascinating to observe his various moods. I don't know what the real answer is at this point because we can't allow a dangerous person to threaten others, yet I understand that he is not in control of all the things he does. I truly hope your research can contribute to helping folks with that disorder sooner rather than later.
Love the energy of the audio podcast, and it's multiplied when watching you in the videos! One comment about the 50 second delay of sound relative to the visual blast for the Trinity test site observers 10 miles away. I'm guessing that they would have experienced a lot of rumbling via ground-borne sound waves starting many seconds prior to the air-borne sound blast. I wonder if the director knew of this but decided that a long silence was more dramatic.

Great thank you so much❤
I am only halfway through and this is so mindblowing. I am a first time viewer and i am now excited to check out the rest of your channel!
Thank you - could this explain stimming behaviors?
Wonderful 🎉
In case you have time, I wanted to ask what is the cause of Tinnitus?
