How to understand your own consciousness (w/ Michael Pollan)

الوصف

What is consciousness? Humans and animals have it, but do plants have sentience? These are the questions journalist Michael Pollan studies. Michael is the author of ten books on the relationship between food, consciousness, and psychedelics. Michael joins Chris to discuss why humans ruminate, how people should get comfortable with boredom, and whether we can really trust our own memories?Host & GuestChris Duffy (Instagram: @chrisiduffy | https://chrisduffycomedy.com/)Michael Pollan (Instagram: @michael.pollan | Website: https://michaelpollan.com/) LinksBuy Chris’ book, Humor Me, at https://t.ted.com/ZGuYfcLFor the full text transcript, visit go.ted.com/BHTranscriptsLearn more about our flagship conference happening this April at attend.ted.com/podcast Hosted on Acast.
