#1 Matthew Moore on Buddhism, Meditating Machines, and the Robopocalypse.
Our top dawg podcast goes to one of our most unusual, yet revealing, episode that dives into what it really means to be human and spiritual … all through the pathway of the Robopocalypse. Thank you for listening. It has been fun. [ READ THE FULL ARTICLE ] #2 Daniel Stiles on Cowboy Churches
One of the greatest joys of doing this podcast for the past eight years has been to meet some pretty incredible people who are just “ordinary” citizens going about their daily life. My goal from the beginning of this project was to highlight “practitioners” who “learn by doing” and to bring forth the knowledge they […] [ READ THE FULL ARTICLE ] #3 Ron Hassner on Sacred Spaces and Holy Conflict

We recount some of our adventures in this podcast, including how I first […] [ READ THE FULL ARTICLE ] #9 Carmel Chiswick on the Economics of Being Jewish in America
