About this listen

In We Might Be NPCs, Ray Brownlee takes you on a sharp, funny, and mind-bending tour through one of the strangest ideas in modern thought, the Simulation Hypothesis. Blending philosophy, physics, and a dash of pop culture, this book asks the unsettling question: What if reality isn’t… real?

From Nick Bostrom’s famous argument to quantum quirks that make our universe look suspiciously like code, you’ll explore:

  • How simulation theory went from sci-fi to serious science.
  • The eerie overlaps between video games, AI, and human consciousness.
  • Why our memories, choices, and even physics might be “rendered” on demand.
  • How to live well, even if you’re just an NPC.

Whether you’re a philosopher, a scientist, or just someone who’s ever wondered if the universe has patch notes, this book will change how you see everything… or is it just BS pushed on us by tech bros?

But if we are in a simulation, you might as well play well.
