Gifts of Time
Gifts of Time brings forth timeless spirituality through contemplation and reflection. Together, we contemplate on passages from the great spiritual and behavioural thinkers of the past, from Vyasa to Tolstoy, and reflect on the life experiences and accompanying lessons learnt from the show host. Anthony Andreoli, a Montrealer with a bent for spiritual understanding has organized this show to support those who feel deserted, seeking higher levels of thought, and who’ve lost years of valuable human potential at the hands of the misaligned environment of their youth. A one-man-show with occasional guests that help exemplify the theme of the show, it carries a supportive, explicit, and comedic tone.

Essentially these statements admit our personal investigation for the causes of our character - the effect being our present character. Effects mix to pr...
We begin in the "Diary" episodes to cover selected entries from Anthony's personal journal which he began about 8 years prior to this recording. The purpose is to investigate behavioral evolution over time, and more importantly to dissect the pain that fuels it. In this episode we hear about the initial efforts at deliberately designing a character beyond the negative tendencies implicitly absorbed during a family's lifetime. It cl...
We explore Anthony and Cynthia’s friendship which began in High School at Vincent Massey Collegiate. Problems we faced then, how poorly they were handled, and how clueless we were to the delicacy needed in those times. A small journey is taken to our present day situation. We touch on Patanjali’s internal and external cleanliness from his classic text Yoga Sutras in comparison to Warren Zevon’s classic song Sentimental Hygiene. It’...
“Stay hungry,” they say—but hunger is a cycle; an insatiable loop. You feed it, only for it to return. In the corporate world, this hunger is rebranded as virtue—more gain, more status, more recognition. But like physical hunger, it is ceaseless. When you see life as an endless chase, you become unending dissatisfaction. Listen in for a reflection on this paradoxical aphorism, as we take a deeper look through the lens of Zhuangzi a...
Gifts of Time is the podcast that brings us to a place of understanding. We will process our lives together, look at ourselves, and reduce the level of fear in the world. We go beyond knowledge of success in hierarchies. How can we bring more joy into this world? That is our purpose.
