Can we tempt you sell your car, compost your shit and embrace a life of joyful frugality? 

You don't have to answer right away. Listen to this conversation with Meg Ulman of Artist as Family to hear what a radically connected lifeway is all about. 

We cover a lot of ground in this episode from growing up Jewish and getting intentional about time, to forest names, bush kids, menopause and grief.

A convo about the collapse of civilization may not be everyone’s cuppa tea, but a spoonful of Dave Pollard makes the medicine go down! And today Dave is bringing the sweetness to episode one of Reskillience for a Big Hairy Chat about the End Times – that ain’t so scary after all. 

We discuss what “collapse” means, skills that can help us cope and adapt, why communitarianism is where it’s at, and how to catch each other when The Shit Hits The Fan. 

Dave is a writer and longtime student of culture, systems theory, complexity, history, human nature, non-duality and how the world really works. He describes himself as a dechooled non-spiritual vegan and joyful pessimist – and after this surprisingly uplifting conversation, I’m sure you’ll agree.
