Decode Ancient Mind

Your brain is 300,000 years old. Everything it does today — the habits, the fears, the things you can't explain — it learned on the savanna, not in the modern world.

Decode Ancient Mind breaks down human evolution, anthropology, and psychology through hand-drawn doodle explainers that connect ancient survival systems to the way you actually live, scroll, love, and fear today. Every video takes something you do without thinking and traces it back to why your ancestors needed it to survive.

New videos weekly. If you've ever wondered why your brain works the way it does you're in the right place.
