One of the finest films ever made. Roger Avary recently said that Beowulf was an attempt to do it all over again. A great tribute to John and his wonderful films.

This was an excellent discussion. A welcome contrast to (usually American) formats which descend into a showcase for the host. In the end the difference is slight- Sapolsky admits that he’s part of the ‘lunatic fringe’ of unreconstructed determinists - but Mitchell’s book is better grounded IMO.

Audio Feature: The Puzzle of Free Will
Tune in to an exploration of one of the great quandaries in science and philosophy.
Along with the story on free will that I wrote for Nautilus, I also produced an accompanying 20-minute audio feature, where you'll hear directly from Kevin Mitchell (@wiringthebrain.bsky.social), Robert Sapolsky, @seanmcarroll.bsky.social, & Jenann Ismael. Enjoy: nautil.us/audio-featur...
