Episode description

Ever wake up one morning and realize that no one actually knows anything about anything? That's what the consciousness debate is like. Presumably everyone already has intimate firsthand knowledge of their own consciousness...so why can't we agree on anything?  I'm throwing a few ideas out there with their own problems and challenges. What's your take on this greatest of mysteries?
