#12 Dreams of Divinity: Rabbi Jill Hammer on mysticism & the meaning of life
Rabbi Jill Hammer is committed to an earth based and a wildly mythic view of the world in which nature, ritual and story connect us to the body of the cosmos and to ourselves. We explore the meaning of life, the role of dreams and how we might find hope in the face of climate breakdown.

#11 This civilisation is finished? : An interview with Professor Rupert Reid
Rupert Read is convinced that societal collapse is inevitable – and near. And that this is White Swan effect – it’s not remotely surprising or coming out of left field. So this being the case, we need to act – we have a choice between crashing into extinction OR moving forward to a transformation of our culture and society so profound that what transpires bears no resemblance to the current society.

#10 Healing ourselves & the World: an interview with Della Duncan
If we can open our eyes and look in the mirror of the world, we can open ourselves to the Inter-Being that allows Active Hope as we face the chaos of our world. In this interview, Della Duncan, Renegade economist and practitioner of Joanna Macy’s Work that Reconnects, explores the ways to a sustainable and equitable future.

#9 falling in love with living
Falling in love with the wonder of being alive feels like such a distant dream… but it’s a key, core part of the journey. When every moment is a wonder and a joy – even those laden with fear or doubt, rage or horror – we begin to shift the nature of what it is to be human.

#8 emergence from complexity
Emergence from Complex Systems is a thing. And the thing about it is, that there are only two options when a system reaches maximal complexity: collapse to chaos and extinction OR emergence to a new phase. We prefer the second option, so this is a look at complexity – and at the levers of change in any system.

#6 changing our minds
‘Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny’ – Lao Tsu mapped the progress from habits of thought (and we would add habits of feeing) towards the truth of what we become.
In this episode, we map the core science of what makes our habits move from simply things we do once, to things that we do without thinking them…

#5 heart coherence
If we’re going to reach conscious evolution, we need to be able to stand in balance in the world – a key part of which is that we learn how to open the routes from head to mind to heart so that we can begin to feel what we choose to feel – rather than reacting to our amygdalas.

We also explore how to be grounded and fully present throughout the day.

#3 growing into coherence
This third podcast looks specifically at what it means to (re) awaken into connection with the web of consciousness that is the world, how we can rediscover a heritage we have only recently lost and re-purpose it for the twenty-first century.

#2 awakening into connection
What is conscious evolution? How might we each play a part – and what do we get out of it? Short answers: the next evolutionary step; we grow into coherence and awaken into connection, then we learn how to ask for help (that’s the big one), and then let go of everything that’s holding us to the old paradigm.

#1 conscious evolution
In this first episode of accidental gods, we outline the thinking that got us to here, and then go on to explore the possibility of transformational change – of conscious evolution – and the very practical, daily practice that could lead us towards it.
Whatever else you do, listen to this first… it puts everything into perspective and sets us up for the rest of our journey together.
