In this podcast, Tom Bilyeu sits down with Richard Dawkins to discuss the fascinating connections between human behavior, evolution, and consciousness. Dawkins sheds light on how our evolutionary past shapes our instincts, emphasizing the tension between our instinctual "reptilian brain" and our more logical "mammalian brain." They explore the role of sexual selection in shaping human traits, including the intriguing aspect of concealed ovulation. The conversation also covers the concept of memes as cultural replicators, the ethical challenges posed by genetic engineering, and the ongoing enigma of consciousness.
