Are You the Same Person You Were Yesterd...

Danny Ballan
About this episode

If all your cells are replaced every seven years, are you the same person? If you lost your memories, would you still be you? In this episode, we're tackling the big, brain-bending question of personal identity. We'll journey from the ancient Ship of Theseus paradox to the idea that you are a story you tell yourself. This isn't a dry philosophy lecture; it's a fun, fascinating, and sometimes startling exploration into the very core of your being. Get ready to question everything you thought you knew about who you are.
