Nice interview. I would do away with the dramatic music, it was honestly distracting from such an important topic. I also wish that during the conversion about cognitive liberty discussions of the mind and the brain being two separate substances would be given any type of airtime. I know we probably don't want to lose ppl on technical terms or nuances but I think it's important if we want to help continue exposing humanity to higher concepts and ideas.
