Donald Hoffman has spent forty years asking one question: are we just machines? He walked away from a defense-industry career to answer it, and the math he found says space and time aren't real — and that what you're looking at right now is one of the cheapest headsets available. We get into the beetles, the beer bottles, the nine proofs he's chasing, and the one story he's never told publicly. Buckle up.
