A New and Ancient Story with Charles Eisenstein

Airing every few weeks, the podcast which I call "A New and Ancient Story" features a conversation with someone who has inspired me with their work, their story, or their presence. Occasionally I also put out a recording of a speech, especially if it contains new material. Some of the conversation partners are well-known; others are seemingly ordinary people, or perhaps they are so far ahead of the curve that they won’t be well known for years. They include people pushing the edges in activism, science, healing of every kind, and technology (broadly conceived).

Truly paradigm-breaking work often seems flaky, irresponsible, naïve, or otherwise suspect; we want to accept it and believe in it, but at the same time we are afraid to, lest we be a numbered among the dupes and the fools. Complicating the issue is that there are indeed a lot of ungrounded developers and practitioners of new-story technologies. As best as I am able, I curate this podcast to introduce you to innovators, visionaries, change-makers, edge-workers, and story-holders of integrity.
