- Super informative
I hope this show is going to continue, because it’s a rare find. With the exception of Islam, I know very little about the religious traditions covered here, and I’m able to learn a lot from it; it’s academic but accessible and lively. A great educational resource in itself but also a wonderful inspiration for further reading.

I am thrilled to have found this podcast. It’s such a beautiful overview of topics that can easily get drowned down by esoteric writings …This peels back the layers of some of the ancient wisdom and rituals, practices and beliefs without getting inundated by too much clutter. Easy to listen to —and fascinating with every turn of word and thought.
