I launched The Taoist Online on Medium to share wisdom, growing it to 190,000 monthly viewers with diverse writers. Medium’s lack of tools frustrated me—poor editing queues, communication, and platform changes drained my passion. I took a break, faced a breakdown, and returned to a declining Medium. On June 1, 2025, I’m moving The Taoist Online there as a newsletter for philosophy and spirituality.
Join me as I tell the tale of how The Taoist Online started, grew, and ultimately declined.
Do you want to encourage more learners to follow the Tao? I’d absolutely love your support at any level that’s comfortable for you.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
