Episode description

In this multi-topic episode, after some meta-talk about podcasting, I argue that minimalism will not work for everyone, that bodily health is not the only important goal in life, and that physicists and life scientists have a different notion of 'understanding a system'. Finally I present an idea from Michael Levin about the almost inevitable evolution of intelligence.
