Episode 2530, ten minutes in. He's on about the fall of the Roman Empire as a regression to the mean. And the role of coincidence.

If he thinks too deeply about coincidence he'll be down the same rabbit hole as Robert Anton Wilson [RIP].

Coincidance: A Head Test by Robert Anton Wilson | Goodreads
Dance a mad dervish whirl of coincidence and synchronicity with Robert Anton Wilson and his dancing partners James Joyce, the Marquis de Sade, William S. Borroughs, Carl Jung, Timothy Leary, Bobbie Kennedy, Marilyn Monroe and a host of others. Coincidance is one of Wilson's personal favorites.
