The more we attempt to make sense of the world at the moment, the more confusing everything becomes. Up is down, left is right, and it’s feeling a lot like the inmates are running the asylum. But in a mad world is being crazy simply a matter of perspective? What do the words mad, crazy, or insane even mean?

With aspects of physical reality colliding left, right and centre, Jost and Leon get onboard the c...

In this episode, Jost and Leon chew the fat on all things food - from agriculture, permaculture and industrial food production, to superfoods, alcohol, porridge and the mystery and misunderstandings around the topic of dieting. 

The conversation kicks off on the topic of our unhealthy and unsustainable system of food production, the current uprising of farmers around the world, and how we must find a way...

Why do some people see through lies while others go along with them? What makes us either blindly follow the rules or challenge the prevailing narrative? What makes us feel safe, helps us make decisions, and allows us to freely and truthfully express ourselves? Turns out these things are all related and are affiliated with the small and humble amygdala. But what happens when it becomes damaged? What happens when we ca...

Welcome to Future Chi, where once again we’re broadcasting from a log cabin, on a nature preserve, somewhere in the hills of Queensland, Australia. Off the bat this leads to a reflection on living in isolation, living free of critique, and how to break through the sheath that surrounds our true selves. This reflection on self reliance leads Jost and Leon to get into the topic of true power; where it comes from, how to...

We’re amidst one of the biggest transitions and most rapid shifts in consciousness we’ve ever seen. Time feels like it’s speeding up (according to quantum physics it’s more than a feeling), and it’s hard to know what to let go of, what to hold on to, and where it’s all headed. It’s time to acknowledge that the old ways are dying and a new reality is emerging. 

This week’s episode kicks off amidst the ser...

Everything is becoming condensed and compressed; between an information overload, rapid increase in stressors and a looming cloud of uncertainty, it feels more and more like something has to give. But in these dark and heavy times it's important to remember that both darkness and heaviness must always give way to light. 

In this week’s episode, Leon and Jost light up the dark with a luminous discussion o...

It feels like we’re sailing further and further out into an ocean of weirdness, uncertainty and instability, with positivity and optimism in short supply. In dark times, when the horizon is hard to see, it's easy to lose hope and become entangled in anger, cynicism and negativity. But dwelling in the dark is not what we’re here to do. We’re here to learn, evolve, and grow, and to do that we need to be excited and insp...

Where do we go when we’ve gone too far? After a tumultuous few years have we hit peak weird, peak ideology, peak excess and peak division? Are we at peak civilisation? All signs suggest we’re near a tipping point and a massive shift in consciousness. But every ending brings a new beginning, and pushing the boundaries has been the mainstay of doers, fighters, creatives, philosophers, leaders and agents of change for th...

We’re in the midst of a rising mental health crisis, but is there also a crisis of incorrect treatment? What happens when the focus remains on the mental and not holistic aspects of health? A combination of weak guidance, poor quality food, sedentary lifestyles and overuse of medication, minus a constructive, structured, confidence building physical regimen is sending people on a downward spiral. This has devastating ...

According to a recent Harvard study, 43% of the world is currently going through a ‘spiritual awakening’, and yet very few people are talking about it. If this is news to you you’re either in the other 57%, or you’re experiencing something you can’t quite explain (let alone describe to anyone else). In a time of unprecedented upheaval, where more social disruption has occurred in 4 years than in the past 40, having a ...

Are we in the midst of some kind of societal dismantling? In an ever increasing rush to take a side, make a stand, and signal to others what we believe, we get more and more caught up in the external world. The more we try and make sense of this via analysis, opinion, and intellectual processes, the more it drains our energy.

Trying to make sense of the world by solely engaging with the ‘issues' gets us ...

Are things getting weirder, worse, and more unstable? Are lies and deceit on the rise? Or is it that are we becoming more attuned to reality and the true nature of life? The answer is…yes! The weirder it gets, the more we need to go within. The chaotic and hostile environments we find ourselves in require us to draw from inside ourselves and to tap into our own spiritual information and destiny. This information tells...

War, what is it good for? It looks and feels like things are getting worse by the day - death, destruction and despondency are out of control, and there's a seemingly daily effort to divide us by any and all means possible. With brewing wars, constant conflict, and global pain and suffering it’s easy to lose hope. How to we counteract this? How do we prevent war, cut through the lies and get to the truth?
