“This podcast is an insightful depiction of Buddhism and its core beliefs.
My only critique would be that the same speeches seem to be reused quite often. While the reminders are always pleasant I also find myself searching to hear something new.”

“Joseph has helped me immeasurably. I love that he points out the simple instructions laying right there on the surface of the Dharma (which can sometimes seem pretty elaborate and esoteric). His straightforward guidance has pulled me back from getting lost in the weeds many times. Indispensable.”

“I agree with all who have shared how great the podcast is and Joseph’s teaching is so helpful. But I’ve unsubscribed today as the ads have become louder and can be obnoxious. I have no idea how ads are chosen but they have become too intrusive for me.”

“If you want a warm soothing bath for your ears, it’s this dude. He gets at the intellectual side of meditation benefits better than anyone I’ve listened to and he’s possibly the least judgmental, most supportive person I’ve ever heard speak. His words make you think, “hey, maybe I CAN do this,”...”Read full review »
