My guest today is Ian Leslie, a writer on human behaviour and the author of books such as 'Born Liars' and 'Conflicted.'

In this conversation, we discuss the nature of lying, its evolutionary significance, and its role in human intelligence. We explores how lying is an inherent part of human behavior and how it can be both beneficial and detrimental in social contexts. We also discuss the importance of disagreement and constructive argumentation in fostering intelligence and understanding as well as navigating political conversations and the need for open dialogue even in the face of differing opinions.
