  • Finding peace during uncertain times

    Finding peace during uncertain times
    Mar 14 2026
    With recent news of war and other violence, it can be difficult to maintain pne's equilibrium. In this episode, I offer a spiritual perspective on how to maintain your own peace when violence around the world is escalating. I delve into the concepts of radical acceptance, karma yoga, and selfless giving (dana).

    This episode could be heavy for some listeners. I avoid going into too much detail, but take care of yourself first and foremost!

  • Heated Rivalry and Fujoshi

    Heated Rivalry and Fujoshi
    Feb 27 2026
    This episode is 17+ only!

    Happy Lunar New Year to those who celebrate! This episode is a bit of a departure from my usual content. I'll be discussing Heated Rivalry, where it can be problematic, and how this gay Eurasian podcaster from a hockey family who even dated a Slavic European in Boston in 2010 is...not the target audience demographic?

    I talk about the fujoshi phenomenon (women who read gay male erotica) and how white writers can learn to write better minority (especially Asian) characters.

    I know I'm in the minority opinion when it comes to not liking this show. Please keep any comments civil or simply keep them to yourself!

  • My recent experience with the Buddhist Walk for Peace (February 4, 2026)

    My recent experience with the Buddhist Walk for Peace (February 4, 2026)
    Feb 6 2026
    Here I share my recent experience at the Buddhist Walk for Peace rally in Caroline County, Virginia. I try to summarize the Venerable Bhikkhu Paññakāra's Dharma talk and a potentially upsetting incident that happened at the rally. (Content warning for religious trauma and most likely mental illness. Listener discretion advised.)

    I do my best to answer any possible questions about this Buddhist pilgrimage, including the lineages of the monks participating and how to find a similar Buddhist teacher near you (especially in Eastern Virginia)! I wish to extend my deepest gratitude to the organizers of the Buddhist Walk for Peace, both layperson and monastic, as well as all the local volunteers and law enforcement personnel who have kept these events safe and open to the public.

    Buddhist topics, groups, & temples discussed in this episode:
    Vietnamese Buddhism
    Vipassana meditation
    Theravada Buddhism
    Pure Land Buddhism
    Buddhist ordination
    Buddhist monk robes
    Buddhist etiquette
    Chùa Hương Đạo (Huong Dao Vipassana Bhavana Center, Fort Worth, Texas)
    Insight Meditation Community of Fredericksburg / Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Fredericksburg
    Saddhamma Meditation Society - Tâm Pháp Thiền Viện (Bumpass, Virginia)
    Ekoji Buddhist Temple (Burke, Virginia)
