  • Could do without the moralizing and TDS

    Once I detected a subtle but increasingly noticeable political bias, I found it hard to focus on the message. It distracts and detracts from the message. Unnecessary (& incorrect) aspersions don’t help unite us at all so I’m unfollowing this show. Why is it so hard for people to see the other side of things? I used to be like that. Then I got better information and now I can’t deal with the constant panic porn.

  • Vertical Morality

    There are lots of gay men with power today. It’s more about wealthy against poor and middle class rather than identity.

  • Insightful and Hopeful

    I find Michael’s accumulation of knowledge and wisdom to be very important and helpful at this time in our human history.

    Each week he shares myth and poetry that are relevant and unique. Appreciate the podcast very much.

    Just what I needed right when I needed it. Yes our ultra violent times reach right into our very souls and knowledge of that alone is so healing. Thank you! Wayne

  • Too political

    I was so excited to find this podcast since I am a huge fan of Jungian psychology and myth. However, the first five minutes I listened to was about Trump being evil, comparing him to Hitler, and lining him up as the source of all problems. I’m not political and I believe the two party system is designed to divide us. Disappointed this podcast which has so much potential has bought into “divide and conquer.”
