It's fall, and that means How God Works is back with a new season! We'll explore the wisdom the world's faith traditions offer to improve our friendships, our decision-making, and lots more about our lives. Plus, why shamans are everywhere & how Tibetan monks control their dreams.

With political violence, social division, & despair on the rise, the US has clearly lost its way. I talked with Krista Tippett & @chrismurphyct.bsky.social about why the country is facing a spiritual, not just political, crisis and how to find our way back. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

Fifteen years ago (a long time for tech), my lab showed not only that people were willing to engage in conversation with social tech, but that we could manipulate their moral beliefs around trust by having the robot send different nonverbal signals. Imagine what today's tech can do.

There's a lot going on out there right now! It's time for...a breather. But how you take that breath really matters! Spiritual traditions developed ways to heal minds & bodies with breath, long before breathwork became a life-hack. We discuss how & give some tools: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

I'm often asked what to do if you want to start a spiritual path but feel like you just can't believe in a higher power. Here's Rabbi Shira Stutman with my favorite answer. Sometimes it's the doing - and doing good - that comes first. From @aspenideas.bsky.social www.aspenideas.org/sessions/los...

Loneliness is on the rise. That's not news. But maybe part of the reason is: we're no longer sure what it means to be a good friend or lack tools to make it happen. I talk with Samuel Kimbriel & Robert Waldinger about what science, philosophy, and religion offer. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

While I can't say if Hell exists, one thing is clear: The idea of Hell shapes not only individual lives, but society, morality, & politics too. On this episode, I speak with Bart Ehrman and @shadihamid.bsky.social about the history & social impact of the Bad Place. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

If you're looking to improve life in 2026, you might want to think about...sin. Not in the fire & brimstone sense, but as @elizabetholdfield.bsky.social notes, as something that separates us from others or, simply put, just F's things up. Join us as we rethink sin. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

I asked David Brooks if he thinks relying on rationality can get in the way of embracing faith. His answer doesn't reject science & positivism, but speaks to their limitations. It's why I think he's right & scholars like Richard Dawkins & Steven Pinker aren't. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/h...

Episode preview here. We take a deep dive into why many men are feeling lost, why some are turning to Christianity for answers, and the benefits & dangers that can follow depending on the messages they receive. Great insights from Richard Reeves, @drmoore.bsky.social & Rasool Berry @aibm.bsky.social

That’s right. The B.C. government is planning to log critical #spottedowl habitat and #oldgrowth forest at Fire Lake. This area is federally mapped as essential for the survival of the endangered northern spotted owl, so why did we find proposed cutblocks in the provincial government's maps?

Back in 2025, after Virginia Giuffre’s reported suicide, other Epstein survivors publicly stated they were not suicidal and warned they were living in fear. Juliette Bryant claimed multiple victims had died under suspicious circumstances — while mainstream media largely ignored the warnings.

I don’t think he’d put the country at risk of another GOP admin if he didn’t think he could win. It isn’t an ego trip for him as he’s firmly committed to doing what’s best for the country.

Why I don't watch sports. There's a reason why the Romans used to say If you want to keep people distracted, You give them bread and circuses. It's because they knew that If people were fed and entertained, Then they wouldn't question anything & wouldn't think for themselves.
