Join hosts Robin Hohweiler and Mikel Mauree Robinson in Episode 34 of Mr. Robin's Hood Podcast as they embark on an intriguing exploration of the age-old debate of free will and predestination. Through humor, jokes, and insightful discussions, they delve into complex philosophical and scientific perspectives, inspired by Robert Sapolsky's book, "Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will."
Despite Sapolsky's stance that free will is an illusion dictated by our subconscious, Robin and Mikel examine both sides of the argument, questioning the validity of determinism and the role of the subconscious in our everyday choices. With a touch of humor and personal anecdotes, they tackle the implications of free will on morality and society.
This is a thought-provoking episode that challenges listeners to consider their own beliefs about free will and determinism, ultimately leaving them pondering the central question: do we really have the freedom to choose, or is our path predestined?
