No, you can't get back to it. So if you look at the studies on memory and reading, it's the highest. The real book. The highest when we read actual real physical books.

So the good news is I don't have to say much beyond what I've already said. One of it is like books are, are fixed. The words are not jumping around the page and flashing and blinking and whatever. So cell phones, as you pointed out, what technology did they base cell phones on? You know this. They designed them to function like slot machines. the most, right?

Addictive, distracting, lots of bells and whistles, lots of noises, lots of earphones. Your focus goes all over the place. In a sense, the brain doesn't multitask. Like it's a total lie, right? I was on the original panel on multitasking with Cliff Ness out of Stanford. Like I worked on it. We are not built to multitask.

We can serial process information, but we do that at a subconscious level, a conscious level, a conscious mind goes one thing at a time, right? It doesn't process two or three things at once. You have to switch tasks. And every time there's task switching, there's a cost to it. So- I want to dive into that a little bit. For sure. So like with phones, one is the anticipation, right? You're right.

Dopamine is a, I mean, and even calling dopamine a chemical of anticipation is a lie. Because what are multi-tools? Neural chemicals are multi-tools. dopamine, norepinephrine, anandamide, serotonin, all these things. They do tens of thousands of jobs in the brain. The brain is really concerted by design. So it finds something that works and it reuses it and reuse it and reuse it and reuse it.

No need to reinvent the wheel each time. Oh, this works. Can it work over here? Can it work over here? Can it work over here? That's sort of how neurochemicals function. Dopamine does a lot of different stuff. Most people don't realize, I'll give you a really simple example. Why does time pass so strangely in the flow? One reason is when there's more dopamine in your system, time speeds up.

And when there's less dopamine in your system, it slows down. You want to hear, this is weird. You want to talk about mind-body connection stuff. Like we used to think these were two separate things and they've been coming closer and closer and closer together. Here's the craziest mind-body connection story. There's a whole bunch of new research that says, and they did this, they wounded people.

put cuts on their arms, and some people, time passed really, they asked them how slow was time passing for you or how fast it was passing for you. The people who thought time was passing faster, their wounds healed faster. People who thought time was dragging on board, it took them longer to heal.

So the latest front of like the mind-body connection is literally how we perceive the passage of time impacts wound healing. The question that I ask myself all the time about that one is we're all weightlifters. Weightlifting is about tearing the muscle or wounding the muscles, right? And regrowing them.

So the question I've been asking myself, but I don't have an answer, I just think it's fascinating is, wait a minute, if I'm wounding my muscles all the time and then I'm in
