Episodes

  1. 023-Oopsy Daisy!

    In this short but sweet episode we explore the world of accidents that seems to be not only unavoidable, but beautifully part-and-parcel to all of our lives having happened at all. At the very least, it will give you something to think about the next time you say “Oops!”

  2. 022-thinayr-Men on the Horizon

    The Mongolian armies slaughtered tens of millions of human beings in their unstoppable conquests. How does one reconcile the living horrors of human experience with todays experience and values? Join me for autumn reflections on mortality at the sight of men on the horizon.

  3. 021-thinayr-Chaos and Meaning

    Another in a series of tandem musings with special guest, Tomas. Recored at the Masonic Temple, join us on a disjointed journey to the edge of order in these tangled musings on chaos and meaning.

  4. 020-thinayr-Desert Prologue

    A low-fi exploration of harmony on an assemblage of home-made and digital instruments...

  6. 018-thinayr-You Are What You Do

    What does it mean to be a good person? Is there more to ourselves than the roles we play, and if so, how do we separate who we are from what we are doing? Shakespeare said "The world is but a stage..." Well then, actors... on your marks!

  7. 017-thinayr-Holding On to Letting Go

    In this episode, we re-ask the question, "how much to you try to control, and how much do you let go?" Again we find ourselves orbiting around two polar concepts that somehow overlap. In the end, it's much ado about nothing.

  8. 016-thinayr-Toe Moss

    Journey to the edges of the map, geographically and psychologically in this edition of Thinayr. This is a long one, but well worth the listen. An epic narrative in the truest sense of the word. Sink your toes into the moss, and enjoy!

  9. 015-thinayr-Taoism in the Name of God

    Is there anything more Taoist than having complete faith in a biblical God? In this episode we explore the idea that two fundamentally opposed ideas, taken to extremes, will wrap back around and be one in the same. Why play favorites with cells and seeds?

  10. 014-thinayr-Mental Droppings Vol.1

    An assortment of original poems and musings selected at random from my stacks of notebooks. A cop out? Sure! Amusing? Sure hope so!

  11. 013-thinayr-Sorrow and Faith

    Tragedy strikes. In this "chautauqua" we explore the murky mists of death and birth… focusing on the experience of personal tragedy and the death of a loved one. How do sorrow, guilt, compassion and faith coincide?

  12. 012-thinayr-The Reflecting Mirror

    How much can we know, and what can we say about it? In this podcast we are seeking the truth of seeking the truth of seeking the truth…

  13. 011-thinayr-The Power in Limitation

    What is the best way to interact with someone who does not share the same beliefs? When different musical styles are played simultaneously, it helps to know something about the instruments themselves…

  14. 010-thinayr-The Illusion of Choice

    We are raised in a culture that puts extreme emphasis on CHOICE. "The choices you make create your life and define the person you are." Is this really the case? In this podcast we look at the idea of "choice" and offer alternative choices to choosing… Mu

  15. 009-thinayr-The Silent Guitar : CF Manifesto

    Rumination on the power of the silent instrument, the blank canvas, the waiting population. The wonder and folly of the plucked string, the drawn line, the imagination made manifest.
