    Audible just had a 2 for 1 sale and I found 4 that look intriguing to me and pulled the trigger on:

    Projections by Karl Deisseroth
    Being You by Anil Seth
    The Anatomy of Anxiety by Ellen Vora
    The Dragons of Eden by Carl Sagan

    I haven’t started any yet. I’ll probably start with Sagan because he’s a great blend of rational scientist and story teller. The other three look like moderately researched books on different aspects of the brain and I read as much as I can find on the brain and intelligence. I have a fairly lengthy list of ones I’ve read and consider interesting here.

      Oh man, I’ve listened to Carl Sagan’s Cosmos so many times in my life that I’m afraid it would be a Pavlovian response to him narrating an audio book… 😴😴

        Demon Haunted World is really good, too. I don’t think he narrates any of it himself, though.
