• Why the brain can make the supernatural feel real - Explore how our brains interpret sensory information and how fear, expectations, memory, and our environment can influence what we see, hear, and feel.
• The neuroscience behind unexplained experiences - Discover the science behind sleep paralysis, hallucinations, déjà vu, false memories, and the eerie sensation of feeling that someone or something is nearby.
• Where perception meets reality - Examine why our brains sometimes create experiences that feel completely real and explore whether these moments point to something supernatural or reveal just how powerful and complex the human brain can be.

Zachys Cellar School: Chardonnay Showdown
Compare Chardonnay from four world-class regions and discover how place shapes one of wine's greatest grapes.
Few grape varieties have suffered more from stereotype than Chardonnay. Too often, we reduce it to "oaky" or "buttery," forgetting that Chardonnay is perhaps the greatest translator of place in the wine world. In this comparative tasting, we'll explore four benchmark regions, Sonoma, Chablis, Maconnais, and Piedmont to understand how climate, geology, and winemaking shape dramatically different expressions of the same grape.
If you've ever wondered why one Chardonnay tastes like crushed oyster shells while another recalls toasted hazelnuts and cream, this class is for you.
