A view into life and consciousness
To really appreciate this podcast, you need to listen to several episodes so that you can catch the repeating themes, questions about the nature of life itself (on the cellular level, on the level of the organism and the things that live within it or on it, at the species level) and questions about the nature of consciousness: how does the brain work?

And many more...
