Well howdy my curious crew, today we’re taking somewhat of an insightful detour on our discussion of the rest and digest system! Our mode of transportation? Metaphor! We’re using figurative language to figure out what should already be widely known.

For anyone new here, we’ll be discussing neuroscience, math, fluid dynamics, lateral learning and inhibition - we cover a lot of ground. Feel free to trilateral my position on information silos and receive a high five when you get here.

Apologies to those who aren’t mathematically inclined, sometimes you have to “take it there” to prove a point, coordinate frustration.

Also, please feel free to leave your favorite marching band performance! They’re so hypnotic and incredibly impressive, I’d be honored to have them in the communal Schauer.

Make sure to rate my 5 stars on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, any place you get your podcasts!
