The Demiurge - with Tim Freke
A conversation with philosopher Tim Freke about the mythical Gnostic figure of the Demiurge, the lesser God who creates the material Cosmos. The Gnostics used the Demiurge to explain how a God of pure love could end up creating a universe of suffering. We talk about how the image of the Demiurge has been recycled through the ages right up until the present day, from films like The Matrix to the theories of David Icke.

I host a discussion between philosopher Tim Freke and physicist Jude Currivan, centred around the themes in Jude's new book, The Cosmic Hologram and Tim's book Soul Story. We discuss Jude's view on what quantum physics is telling us about the nature of reality and whether it is pointing towards a particular metaphysical position. The discussion then moves along to look at how the views we hold on the fundamental nature of reality effect our behaviour on a personal and political level.

Radical Sages - with Tim Freke and Robert Rabbin
I talk with Tim and Robert about non-dual spirituality and what impact it can have on political activism. Does a non-dual philosophy imply certain political/economic positions? How does an awareness of a deeper sense of identity affect the way we dialgoue? How does it speak to the sense of despondency activist may suffer from when confronting the impossible? Does it leave a person optimistic for the future?
