169: How To Be Mysteriously Virtuous [Tao Te Ching Ch.10]

Filtered through two socks, we gain a whole other layer of perspective in another empowering episode of Meta-Cosmos!…Hosted by Bartleby and Artemus Neehi.…Produced by Isaac Bluefoot.…Theme Music by Royal Jelly

166: The Foundations of Enlightenment [Tao Te Ching Ch.7]
Mar 100:33:33Tap to summarizeLooking at Chapter Seven of the Tao Te Ching, we ask ourselves, is enlightenment just a bunch of classist propaganda?

162: Un Dao Process [Tao Te Ching Ch.3]
Feb 100:29:25Tap to summarizeWhat is the Tao and what isn’t? What do we do when we do not want to do too much? How do we just be when tyranny is afoot? And how do we ensure due process is done? Our favorite pair of socks try to just talk about the Tao, but Justice is crying and hard to ignore in another very real episode of Meta-Comos.…Hosted by Bartleby and Artemus Neehi.…Produced by Isaac Bluefoot.…Theme Music by Royal Jelly
