What can be illuminated when you explore in the darkness of your subconscious mind, through lucid dreaming or darkness retreats? We get to the heart of mystery in this mind-bending episode with Andrew Holecek, one of the most brilliant and poetic explorers of consciousness I know.
We go deep into the transformative crucible of dark retreat—something I experienced firsthand. What happens when you face your own mind in complete darkness? No distractions, nowhere to hide. Magic happens, that’s what.
Andrew weaves together decades of wisdom from the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, offers cutting edge dream research on lucid dreaming, and shares his own profound encounters in the dark. The stories he tells will leave you questioning the very fabric of reality.
This episode has it all—quantum physics paradoxes, Sufi teaching tales, and practical tools for your own path of discovery. Andrew has a way of making the most esoteric ideas feel like a chat with a wise friend. That's a rare gift.
Andrew is also the host of the "Edge of Mind" podcast, where he interviews luminaries in science, philosophy, spirituality, and psychology. His work has been featured in major outlets, including Wired magazine, and he is recognized for his innovative approach to integrating Eastern and Western perspectives on consciousness and transformation.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
