What Does Science Really Know About Free Will?

I interviewed Edward Slingerland about the history of intoxication, the flow state and effortless action. Apologies for the sirens in the background. At least it's fitting to the theme.

I interviewed Aaron Schurger about his famous experiments on Free Will that debunked the popular interpretation of Libet's studies.  Check out my other episode on Free Will also, titled: What Does Science Really Know About Free Will?

I interviewed Dr Mark McLaughlin, author of Cognitive Dominance: A Brain Surgeon's Quest to Out-Think Fear. We discussed philosophy, surgery, a day in the life of a surgeon, responsibility, wrestling, and late bloomers. It was a fascinating conversation. I'd recommend this to med students and anyone else wanting to learn to deal with fear and anxiety.

I interviewed Vanessa Haley-Benjamin, a marine biologist who's working on growing ocean mollusc meat from stem cells. I ask how cell agriculture will shape the future of food production and aid in conservation.

In this episode, I interview Stephen Jenkinson, the author of Die Wise: A Manifesto for Sanity and Soul on his music and what he learnt working with the dying.

I interviewed Dr Iain McGilchrist, neurologist and author of The Master and His Emissary about matter, models of reality vs reality itself, schizophrenic art work and how he found his way into medicine.  Links: IainMcGilchrist.com channelmcgilchrist.com thedividedbrain.com @jaxpaxworx on instagram Jax's previous books on Amazon: The Artist's State of Mind: A Guide to Accessing the Flow State Through Mastery of Your Chosen Craft How Yoga Really Works https://www.amazon.com/Artists-State-Mind-Accessing-Through-ebook/dp/B081L6TWKF/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=artist%27s+state+of+mind+jax&qid=1612145697&sr=8-1 https://www.amazon.com/How-Yoga-Really-Works-Jax-ebook/dp/B089F65XLH/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&qid=1612145777&refinements=p_27%3AJax+Pax&s=digital-text&sr=1-2&text=Jax+Pax Coming: Existential Questions
