Captions provided by CCTubes – Captioning the Internet! As we continue explore free will, today Hank considers a middle ground between hard determinism and libertarian free will: compatibilism.

We’ll also cover Frankfurt Cases and Patricia Churchland’s rejection of the free-or-not-free dichotomy and her focus on the amount of control we have over our actions.
