  • The Magic of Wearing Masks (Happy Halloween!)
    Oct 29 2025

    It's our Halloween Episode of The Container! We discuss the power of masks that we wear in our lives: the Cool Guy, the Good Mother, the Professional, etc. Sometimes, we struggle to feel authentic while wearing masks, but there is so much more to what's going on. If we are really paying attention, it even touches our ability to shape reality.

    We also see how circling is such a rich practice space to explore masks and how Halloween is the perfect technology to understand the best approach.

    This is based broadly on our most recent newsletter, which you can find here. | https://the-containers-newsletter.beehiiv.com/p/on-wearing-masks

    Also, this episode marks our official two-year anniversary of the show. Thanks for being here for the ride.

  • Myths and Family w/ Sean Wilkinson
    Oct 15 2025

    What do archetypal stories like Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, and the Gruffalo teach our families? How can we more consciously relate with these contemporary sources of mythic images? And can we use them to raise children and fortify ourselves on our own journeys?

    Sean Wilkinson of Transformational Connection comes on The Container to answer all these questions (and many more).

  • Power Dynamics in Circling w/ Jordan Myska Allen
    Sep 17 2025

    Power dynamics and hierarchy are rarely talked about features of any community. In Circling, where so many participants value egalitarianism, this can become tricky.

    So let’s dive into it with one of the world’s leading experts on the practice! Jordan Myska Allen is a veteran of the art of circling who has pioneered the practice while also creating an organization devoted to it.

    On this episode, we explore the gifts and perils of power in a circle with him. And yeah, this is feeling like part one of a million-part series, doesn't it?

  • Is It All a Psyop? w/ Rob Kancler
    Aug 6 2025

    Do we have the ultimate unplug from the real Matrix? Did aliens implant religion into humanity as a psyop? What's going on with emotions anyway?

    This conversation goes EXTREMELY deep into how we navigate moving into and out of the Matrix: the network of constructions, helpful fictions, ideologies, and notions that make up the world we know.

  • Escape the Matrix w/ Rob Kancler
    Jul 23 2025

    DISCLAIMER: Some of the conversation was a bit too controversial for the RSS feed, so we've put the full, unedited discussion up on our Patreon.

    In this conversation, we welcome Rob Kancler back on the show to talk about the Matrix, both what it is and how we enter and exit it at will.

    We discuss the implications of the Matrix on personal development, sexuality, and community dynamics.

    And yes, we lean HEAVILY on the metaphor of the Matrix.
