On this week's episode, Harvey and Austin dive into the struggles, triumphs, and nuance of meditation.  The guys dive heavily into the importance of listening - not just in meditation, but in everyday life.  They discuss the parallels and metaphors found in both the relationship we have with ourselves and the relationships we have with others.  

Remember your town's rival for high school sports?  We tend to find they're not so different from us.  It turns out our disgust for them was only because we were threatened by them.  Tune in to hear Harvey and Austin talk about how listening to understand would make not only the external world a better place, but also our own internal world.
