  • Summary

  • Thomas asks Stephen to explain the 'small matter' of consciousness. Stephen focuses upon the element of consciousness sometimes called a subjective experience. There is a lot of talk about this question on podcasts and YouTube channels - sometimes called the "hard question of consciousness', coined by David Chalmers. Stephen introduces the work of neuroscientists and psychologists to try to understand this mystery, and also finds what he believes is the most promising theory yet to explain consciousness scientifically. This will only be the first of many discussions about consciousness and its intersection with psychology and physics.
