Ep 48 - The Passive Aggressive Game of Our New Secular Religion
Über diesen Podcast
In The Willing Fool podcast, we ask questions and seek answers about the biggest questions of life--what is the meaning of life, what we should pursue and how. We question, think, explore, and discuss things that you care about but might not feel safe to say out loud. We consider this search for wisdom a sacred journey that we can take together.
