A questioning Catholic and an open-minded Jew go into a studio to explore the concept of spirituality. The result: a podcast that covers everything from quantum physics to the hero’s journey and everything in between. Clayton was raised to believe that Evil emanates from the devil, and that it creeps into the human soul through the gateways of venial and mortal sins. Luna…isn’t so sure.

Every day, our world gets smaller. Today more than ever, we’re constantly in contact with people who don’t believe the same things we do. How can a person who follows Jesus have healthy, respectful and loving conversations with people of other religions? What can a Christian and a Muslim talk about? What about Buddhist or Hindus? Atheists or Mormons? In this class, we’ll explore the basic structure, beliefs and practices of other religions. We’ll learn where they overlap with Christianity, and what the important differences are. In the end, we’ll be more confident of our own faith, and more able to engage those of other religions with love and grace.

Shortly after my Huffington Post essay “Beyond McMindfulness” went viral, a popular mindfulness promoter accused me of being a “crank”. So why not own it? Alas, The Mindful Cranks was born. The Mindful Cranks was the first podcast to critique the mindfulness movement. Conversations with guests soon expanded in scope to include critical perspectives on the wellness, happiness, resilience and positive psychology industries – sharing a common concern that such highly individualistic and market-friendly techniques ignore the larger structural and systemic problems plaguing society. Whether these be trendy Asian spiritualities such as mindfulness or yoga, or other interventions from therapeutic cultures, The Mindful Cranks will call them out without mercy. I am very fortunate to engage with my favorite journalists, authors and public intellectuals whose works that I admire, as well as educators and spiritual teachers who I have learned from — fellow cranks who don’t simply accept the way things are. They’re modern muckrakers who dare to question the unquestionable. But being cranky can be critically wise and compassionate. Casting a wide net around the impending meta-crisis, The Mindful Cranks also explores with leading thinkers how the problems of our times are deeply entangled with our ways of knowing and being. Rather than just retreating from such problems by sitting on cushion, doing yoga or listening to a meditation app, I believe using our minds is not necessarily a bad thing if it challenges the limits of human knowledge.
