Adaptability in Precarious Times (Riffing on Tao Te Ching 78) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Flow like water. If you've been studying the Tao Te Ching with us, this image and indeed concrete wisdom is familiar to you. But in this episode we discuss why it has been incredibly practical and arguably life saving wisdom for us. When things get tough, having a minimalist but life affirming strategy is a great treasure.
It is Expensive to be Poor (Riffing on Tao Te Ching 77) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We catch the audience up on our summer long quest for a new van for our adventures. Discussion of the Tao Te Ching's concept that a world with simultaneously extreme poverty and extreme wealth is unhealthy and that it is in the best interest of the super rich (albeit not for immediate capitalist aims) to avoid crushing the poor. Recorded in Hualapai Mountain Park on Labor Day.
