The Department of “Defense” just dropped the act and rebranded as the Department of War. Not a glitch, not Orwellian doublespeak—just truth in advertising. In this episode, Lloyd Dobler guides you through a sort-of meditation that uses breath like a crowbar, prying open myths about defense, empire, and silence.

Seven affirmations. One loud monkey mind. And a reminder that kindness, refusal, and joy are stronger than any budget line item.

Sit down, breathe, and join Lloyd as he finds stillness in hostile conditions—and maybe slips a crowbar into the hinges of empire while he’s at it.

From the edge of empire and the center of the self—this is The Tao of Lloyd.
