Godfrey: "I think the biggest question that we have to answer is, how are we defining it? What do we mean when we say we have free will?" He says scientists can find other things going on such as neural connections and all this stuff in the environment. Godfrey believes there's a mystery to the brain because you use your brain to study it.
Neil deGrasse Tyson investigates free will, morality, meditation, psychedelic experiences, artificial intelligence, and more alongside neuroscientist and author Sam Harris, comic co-host Godfrey, neurotheologist Andrew Newberg, and neuroscientist Robert Wright. You have no choice but to listen.
