About this episode
This episode discusses the relationship between the brain and our experiences, suggesting that our understanding of the brain is shaped by our experiences rather than the other way around.
We tend to think that our experience arises inside the brain, but in fact the opposite is true. All we know of our brain is our experience is it, and our brain is entirely contained within our experience.
