Free Will: Worth Contemplating Courage Over Convention

    • Self-Improvement

A fun though perhaps controversial collaboration with Stewart Alsop III (host of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast). Subscribe to his podcast (Crazy Wisdom) - you’ll be glad you did. You can find him on Twitter @StewartalsopIII
You can find me on Twitter @WoodyWiegmann

(1) Woody's general perspective on free will, determinism, and the views of thought leaders within the Philosophy of Neuroscience.

(2) Stewart relates his experience with free will, the emotional ego complex, and what he really means when discussing "God" publicly.

(3) Woody discusses David Hume's departure from his typical skeptical approach in favor of a compatibilist outlook. He asserts Robert Sapolsky's views on the mechanics of thought actually rest on a foundation of faith.

(4) Stewart weaves iboga and addiction into the discussion of free will - and outlines how the first order of neurochemistry fails to explain the process of breaking the addiction to heroin.

Our discussion is wide-ranging - plenty of other interesting topics are covered!
