In our inaugural episode, we discuss questions surrounding the current crisis of the pandemic, especially as they relate to the human need for connectedness, love, authentic expression. Not surprisingly, this leads to a critical discussion regarding the many substitutes, corruptions and illusions of the same that we're especially prone to now. The discussion leads to a surprising result: the shift to electronic connection that the crisis has required of us raises age old questions about love, human worth and the meaning of life that are hard to contemplate, but always worth confronting. How can we find what's true, real, and worth holding onto, in this maze of images and appearances, when real contact has become something fearful or forbidden? What does the present circumstance reveal about our own reluctance for true relationships, and the causes and consequences of holding that posture? Find out inside!
