Maybe considering the format he’s presenting on he should qualify those points but as a listener I’m not assuming it’s worked out. I’m not assuming that these phenomenon grew in a common ancestor I’m just saying the lobster’s experience evokes empathy (in me) when he describes the restructuring of the human brain after difficult experiences.

If it were deep dish science it would take weeks to muddle through the details. Now, if I were his student, I would expect those details because that’s where the practical knowledge is. But as a dude to listen to casually I enjoy it. Maybe his classes guide you through the neural processes or maybe they don’t. If I were dropping 60 grand or whatever I would want information that I could use to formulate something practical and that’s going to be in the tedious details I’m not looking for in a podcast.
