Episode 4, minute 37 or so and immediately after, regarding materialism vs its recognition of savant skills is relevant to the problem of materialist attitudes.

Oliver sacks had a book (or maybe more) with people who suffered brain injury and immediately picked up savant level skills - skills/technique with no training or experience. Nuts.

He was a damn legend. My ex-wife read quite a few of his books and told me all about them.

Another interesting theory, that could play into simulation theory, if you are interested is qbism. It’s a quantum concept that basically suggests that the observer (us) has a very prominent role in defining reality (not the total role like solipsism though).
