This moment in history is a real hapac right at the foot of the mountain d. We're starting to move on on the sting of and by the wat, youknowr our wristband just just came out this year after ten years of or and an lab. And yes, is, there's nothing in the science that says, but this can't happen. It's not even where we're going to be in a few years. This is, thisis where we are.

In this episode we sit down with neuroscientist David Eagleman to learn how brains turn noise into signal, chaos into order, electrical spikes into meaning, and how new technology can expand subjective reality in ways never before possible.

In his new book, Livewired, Eagleman explores how brains come into the world "half baked" so they can create reality itself out of the inputs and experiences available. And now, thanks to that plug-and-play plasticity, with the latest tools, not only can we return senses to people who've lost them, but we can add to any brain senses we can't imagine.
