We're saying the same things, but something could be different.

And usually something is different when you run the simulation.

And that's what got me into a whole other rabbit hole, which I cover in my second book, which is the Mandela effect.

I don't know if you've heard about the Mandela effect.

Yeah.

Well, I kind of dismissed the whole thing earlier.

And the Mandela effect is when a small group of people remember something happening differently in the past than what is the majority consensus opinion.

Well, that was the first thing that kind of kicked off this blogger who actually coined the term.

I think her name was Fiona Broome.

Some people remember Nelson Mandela dying in prison in the 80s.

But of course, he didn't die in prison, right?

You can look it up.

He got out of prison, became president of South Africa, won the Nobel Peace Prize and died in whatever it was, like more recently, like 2013 or something like that.

The people who remember this, they remember it with just like a whole bunch of specific details, right?

There were certain U.S.

politicians or presidents there.
