And I think the reason for that, Ben, is that imagine that you took the set of all possible playable games and you extracted out what playable meant. Playable would mean something like infinitely iterable, improving as you played it, and voluntarily chosen. Well, that's a very tight set of constraints around what would constitute an acceptable game.

And there's no reason to assume that wouldn't reemerge continually as the world of playable games battled What would you say? As battles raged in the world of potentially playable games. It makes perfect sense. Dawkins kind of got excited about that idea near the end of our discussion because we talked about how that might function biologically.

So once you establish a story as supreme, then people can compete within that framework for reproductive supremacy. And that would mean that the reproductive victory would confer an advantage on the genes that matched that story. So that's how biological evolution can chase the...

structure of narrative well geez well Dawkins he figured when we talked about that this was only the last half an hour so he saw how that might work which I thought was well I couldn't have asked for a better end to our discussion than now it's like that's also an explanation for the emergence of the Jungian collective unconscious right at the genetic from the genetic level all the way up to the conceptual I think it's indisputable that these sorts of things have occurred

It can't not be the case. It has to be the case. And I think it has to be the case biologically. Once human beings opened up the capacity for abstraction and we created worlds of representation in abstraction, then the fact of the existence of those worlds is going to start to have a determining effect on the course of biological evolution.

The alternative hypothesis is that the fact that human beings can think is independent of their reproductive status and their biology. That's a stupid theory. Obviously, that's not true. So I think we're in a revolution, a conceptual revolution, Ben, and I think all this political drama, all the culture wars are a reflection of something much deeper going on underneath the surface.
