Welcome, welcome.
Welcome to armchair expert expert Sun Expert.
I'm Dan shepherd and I'm joined by Monica Padman.
Birthday girl.
Monica Padman.
Oh, yay.
We're going hard.
We're gonna go all the way through.
Today we have, for the second time, Andrew Newberg.
He is a neuroscientist.
He is a pioneer in the neurological study of religious and spiritual experiences known as neurotheology.
That's what we talked a lot about the last time he was here.
And he's got an incredible new book out right now called Sex, God and the brain, how sexual pleasure gave birth to religion, and a whole lot more.
It was a juicy, fun one.
I love any evolutionary topic.
It was very interesting to hear how the brain works similarly with both of these opposing sure topics.
Please enjoy.
