You Are Now Less Dumb by David McRaney is an amazing book about all the ways our brains delude ourselves and trick us into thinking we're rational beings, when really, we're just making s#!t up. This episode explains the basis for the book and gives 5 specific examples as to why we're so dumb :)

In this episode we cover the fundamental Toltec philosophy about the nature of reality and human consciousness, what they call "Mitote" or The Dream. The idea is that human beings are the embodiment of creation, God, life itself, but our perception is covered by a smokey mist that makes it nearly impossible for us to recognise the "God" in us and in each other, and it's our task in our lives to clear away the haze.

We discuss Ian's hotel quarantine experience during Covid, Lorna's confusing childhood & growing up in a Ski Resort, how to deal with a woman when she's all hormonal and nonsensical - PINEAPPLE! - and Sexual Asphyxiation and also how to solve all the problems in the world.

In this episode, we discuss a bunch of wild and confronting facts about the human anatomy that nearly made Ian jump ship from society and join a sex cult. The unique human anatomy lends to a concept called "Sperm competition" which is the key argument in the book that humans are not meant to be monogamous.
