About this listen

 This episode explores how human perception is actively constructed, not passively recorded. Rather than a camera, the brain acts as a prediction machine, blending sensory input with expectations, memory, and context.

Phenomena like the McGurk effect and change blindness reveal how the mind fills in gaps, shaping a personal version of reality—one that invites greater humility about what we think we truly perceive.
