Sourdough Modernity

Why do people become religious and conservative when they grow up?

Let’s make the car a place of silent reflection.

A short thank you episode for 1,000 listeners.

We know we’ve been gone — we’ll explain everything IN 2027.

Flower essences are —created through water, sunlight, living flowers, and communing/ attuning to the plant— they work in subtle ways, meeting us on emotional and energetic levels, cultivating deep transformation.

In this episode, we explore what flower essences are, how to make them, and how to work with them intentionally. We talk about the energetics of flowers, the role of touch and presence, and how water acts as a receptive carrier—briefly touching on experiments that explore how water responds to words, energy, and intention, including the work of Masaru Emoto.

This is also a reminder that medicine doesn’t always need to be heavy, forceful, or high-dose to be effective. Sometimes the smallest dose—taken consistently and with care—creates the deepest shift.

On Christmas Eve, we return to the beginning. Tristin from EP05 The Crucible—one of our top five most impactful episodes—comes back to close out the season before our holiday break. We reflect on how far the show has come, revisit the ideas that inspired so many listeners, and unpack the diets, discipline, and commercialism surrounding Christmas. A full-circle conversation to end the season with intention.

What are the words that can flip a room, end a friendship, or get your jaw checked in real life?

A previously recorded conversation gets new life as a full episode.

In this episode, a late-night, slightly drunk phone call from my brother turns into a raw conversation about language, consequences, and the stuff you don’t always unpack when you grow up around it. We talk openly about being white guys who were raised in environments where saying the N-word was normalized—and what it means to look back on that now.

In this episode, we dive into Paul Verhoeven’s 1987 classic RoboCop, exploring how this sci-fi masterpiece shaped my life, my code of honor, and the way I see the world. From a childhood Walmart VHS run with Aunt Chick to the 15-year wait for the RoboCop statue I helped fund, we reflect on how RoboCop’s struggle to reclaim his humanity resonates today in a world of AI, corporate overreach, and privatized policing. Along the way, we ask the provocative question: would RoboCop, a man-machine fighting for justice, have supported ICE? Plus, I share how the media I consumed—from RoboCop to Spider-Man—became my personal bible, teaching lessons I still live by.
