Knocked Conscious with Mark Puls
Knocked Conscious with Mark Puls explores the deep and often tangled intersections of society, culture, science, spirituality, and philosophy. This podcast isn’t just about presenting ideas; it’s a journey into the heart of what we believe and why we believe it. Here, the goal is to: Spark Introspection: Encourage listeners to look within and question their own views. Challenge Beliefs: Engage in a critical analysis of established and emerging ideas. Cultivate New Perspectives: Introduce novel viewpoints and then rigorously debate their merits. Unite Science and Spirituality: Highlight the complementary nature of these fields, advocating for a synthesis where both are seen as essential to understanding our existence. Foster Enlightened Conversations: Serve as a beacon for those yearning for deep, thoughtful, and expansive discussions. By weaving together seemingly disparate threads, Knocked Conscious invites its audience into a space where complexity is embraced, and curiosity is the compass. Beer Googgles (double-E, double-O, double-G) is basically a show where we get drunk and look-up random $#!T on the internet. It’s the lighter side of our personalities. ***Disclaimer*** We are childish boys who make inappropriate jokes and some of them are extremely insensitive.

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.
