Jon and Daniel decided to take an easy week and discuss trivial matters like free will, fate, and whether our choices actually matter. You know, small stuff. Settle in for some deep-dish Mind Pizza though, because the conversation soon turns to how belief in free will or lack thereof might affect our actions, and whether the universe is a Rube-Goldberg machine (and what that might tell us about its nature). Lastly, Jon and Daniel end this slice of Mind Pizza with some unintentionally inspirational conclusions to value paths over outcomes and live boldly.
