The Brain with David Eagleman - Season 1
Season 1
Episodes
What Is Reality?
Dr. David Eagleman takes viewers on an extraordinary journey, exploring how the brain, locked in silence and darkness without direct access to the world, conjures the rich and beautiful world we all take for granted.
What Makes Me?
Explore how we are our brains, how our personality, emotions and memories are encoded as neural activity. The process of becoming continues through our lives. We change our brains and our brains change us.
Who Is In Control?
Dr. Eagleman explores the unconscious brain and reveals that everything from our movements, to our decisions, to our behavior is largely controlled and orchestrated by an invisible world of unconscious neural activity.
How Do I Decide?
Learn how the brain navigates the tens of thousands of conscious decisions we make every day and the many more unconscious decisions we make about everything from whom we find attractive to what we perceive.
Why Do I Need You?
See how the brain relies on other brains to thrive and survive. This neural interdependence underpins our need to group together - and our capacity to do the best and the worst of things to each other.
Who Will We Be?
Join Dr. Eagleman as he journeys into the future and asks what's next for the human brain and for our species. He speculates that our descendants may be so different from us that we'll be strangers to them.
