Friends,
Who better to go on a spiritual adventure with on the podcast than my pal Pete Holmes! There are lots of places you might know Pete from; his stand-up, his spirituality-meets-comedy podcast You Made It Weird, his HBO show Crashing, or his new book, Comedy Sex God. Pete and I have been wanting to record another show since our epic conversation on Pete‘s podcast, and it’s a great and wide-ranging discussion but for me, the big news is that we do a short but totally accessible spiritual experiment to unravel the weirdness of the universe just through paying attention to our own experiences.
We also discuss
-
what toxic masculinity means if no one really has a definition of masculinity
-
identity and certainty
-
whether or not lucid dreaming is good for us
-
just how much free will do we have, anyway?
-
what Louis CK represents to people, especially in his “comeback” set, and why it’s important to think about those representations
-
contending with evil
-
what happens when we investigate our sight
-
death as a project we all engage in
-
the fear of God and how God unfolds through us

Loved this episode, I kept thinking of the Octavia Butler quote “Everything we touch, we change. Everything we change, changes us. Change is God.”
