New Feature!
The Podcast Parlor
Many of our newsletter subscribers are baby boomers, a generation whose grandparents were the first to get their news and entertainment from a radio. The next generation was the first to gather the family around a television set; a technological advance that changed the world.
Today, the internet has transformed us in the same way, and the current generation of media content now comes from streaming (what would your grandparents think of that word?).
So as a new feature, each month we will highlight some of our favorite podcasts for your listening pleasure, covering these diverse topics:
|

Why a Celebrity Death
Can Feel Like a Personal Loss
by Terri Daniel
After the sudden and shocking death of basketball superstar Kobe Bryant, I was asked by Business Insider to write an article about why celebrity deaths often feel like personal losses. Here's an excerpt:
"The rich and famous are no more special than the lonely and destitute. We're all equal in the cosmic scheme of things, regardless of our bank balances or which god we pray to. Recognize that your assumptions about safety and protection are illusions, and practice loosening your grip on them. We can learn a lot from theologies and belief systems that teach about accepting impermanence and practicing non-attachment."
