Meditation practice (again), savouring the old instead of looking for the shiny new, learning through repetition, mayonnaise flavoured crisps would be shit, Shelter have been wonderful for many decades, Noisy Mothers was an excellent telly programme, creating a healthy salience landscape, but mostly this episode is, and I mean this in the most technical of ways, bullshit.Nothing to do with this episode but listen to Rocket From The Crypt.

Episode 084 Some people like you are morons
Dreams about Ray Cappo, racist Slade tribute acts, Herman Hesse, country and western, experiencing opinions that are different from your own, 60% of people are idiots, 80% of people are idiots, 20% of people are idiots, social egotism, meditation is hard, meditation is worth it, everything in life changes, failure doesn't exist, we're not sponsored by anyone and get your mum to listen to this episode and see if she calls you a cunt.Nothing to do with this episode but watch Broken Flowers.

Episode 083 We need to fuck more and cum less
This episode, we return again to our experiences on our recent silent retreat but this time with an emphasis on the subject of renunciation. What can we get from going without unimportant things in order to get all the stuff that might lead us to finding meaning in a meaningless world?! And that's not all, of course, because we go off piste a lot... Going for a walk is special! Music is special! Not doing the things you want is special! You, the listener, are special! FOMO is a death cult! Enjoy.Nothing to do with the episode but go and listen to Morphine.

Episode 082 Vipassana Silent Meditation Retreat
Fresh from finishing a 10 day silent meditation retreat, your trusty Sohbet Punx are back to share their experiences! I'm not going to write anything silly about it like I usually do in these descriptions, it was a very profound experience and we have quite a story to tell (or maybe start telling). Enjoy.Nothing to do with the episode but go and listen to Sense Field.

Episode 081 Recleaning the Little Chef knives with a napkin
On this episode we're discussing whether faith can solve our crisis of meaning after hearing two much more intelligent people discussing the same topic. But that's not all, problematic people follow us everywhere we go! Disturbed are YOUR favourite new band! AI Jesus! Deep conversations are important! Grappling over THE big existential questions! We're recording this episode just before going on a 10 day silent retreat so I think we're feeling even deeper than usual! Good luck with that dear listener, good luck!
