Is free will a scientific fact? Dr. Kevin Mitchell, neuroscientist and the author of _Free Agents: How Evolution Gave Us Free Will_, certainly thinks so. While some, like recent guest Robert Sapolsky, argue that biology and physics can explain away free will, Kevin begs to differ. Join Adam and Kevin in this episode as they dive into how evolution paved the way for free will and unravel the common misconceptions surrounding the "I" that makes choices.
