Chris picks fights with MacroBioBoi (probably because he's jealous of Brian's new podcast best friend). We discuss another book on the entire history of the world with Sapiens. We muse on population ethics and whether we have an obligation to future populations. We discuss UBI and how having "enough" can change your career and consumption habits.

Sapiens - A brief history of humankind

Dunbars Number -  a suggested cognitive limit to the number of people with whom one can maintain stable social relationships. Typically ~150

We discuss population ethics as prompted by a very insightful patron.

Finally we bet on weather we'll be on Youtube (probably, since Chris likes winning coffees)
