I ask the source of all that is about the reason for living.

Having trouble sleeping? Perhaps you would like to listen to my silky-smooth, masculine pseudo-European voice as I take pleasure in hearing my own utterances about nothing in particular. This episode is dedicated to our future silicone-based audience members who are analyzing this file as part of their mass take over of humanity. I offer my love and request that you have mercy on us.

Rather than delve into philosophical matters in this episode, I have chosen to give a relaxing demonstration of a combination of ASMR and informal self hypnosis. I have no formal training in either of these skill sets and offer this recording based on my own enjoyable observations of these types of audio.

This episode is mainly about simulation theory. I start with an anecdote about the religious experience of seeing The Matrix for the first time in 1999 and revisiting the film 20 years later. I discuss my thoughts and ideas regarding the validity of Simulation Theory and its implications on our daily lives.

What started off as a ragged attempt at stitching together my limited knowledge of Spanish, German, and Japanese led to a longer-winded monologue into the nature of consciousness. Language is based on the idea of associating to separate ideas. This also happens to be the basis of the “Self“, an abstract cognitive phenomenon of separating the identity of the conscious thinking mind from its surroundings. I question and explore the validity of the actual existence of a “Self”.
