Episode notes
I think because they're easier to kind of grok, we're storytelling beings. And I think what was happening here is there was a conflict between systems and stories. The guy who was getting his guesses correct more accurately, he was using a system. But the other guy was using a story. He was creating this kind of, okay, well, this happened and then this happens and then this happened. So I think that really just sums up the way that we prefer information, we prefer it in narrative form. We kind of have to fictionalize information before it appeals to us."
