In a World Obsessed With Hustle.. Dudeism Brings the Calm
Dudeism Explained | The Church of the Latter-Day Dude, Beliefs, History & Meaning Dudeism, also known as the Church of the Latter-Day Dude, is a modern religion and philosophy inspired by The Big Lebowski and the character Jeffrey “The Dude” Lebowski. But Dudeism is more than a joke religion — it presents a modern interpretation of Taoism, Zen philosophy, and the practice of “taking it easy” in a high-stress world.

E46 - "Teenager" by Killing Stares with Brad Gunnarson
In this episode of B-Side Breakdown, Brett Johnson sits down with Brad Gunnarson—better known around the Twin Cities as B-Gun—to unpack “Teenager,” a Deftones cover recorded under the project name Killing Stares. Originally appearing on White Pony, the song was reimagined for For the Song You Saved, a community-driven Deftones tribute benefiting Oasis for Youth.

The Many Hells of Buddhism
When most people hear the word hell, they imagine one place, one judgment, and one eternal punishment. Buddhism tells a very different story. In this episode of Gnome Talk, we explore the many hells of Buddhism, not as threats or divine punishments, but as states of suffering shaped by cause and effect. In Buddhist thought, hells are not eternal, not ruled by a god, and not places you are sentenced to forever. They are conditions that arise when certain patterns of anger, obsession, cruelty, despair, or confusion take hold. This is not a...

The point where darkness stops growing and the direction of the year begins to change.In this special Gnome Talk episode, we explore the Winter Solstice through a Gnomean lens—not as a rush toward light, but as a season of unseen work. Across ancient Pagan, Druidic, and Northern European traditions, humans honored this night not because it was dramatic, but because it was true. Fires were kept low. Evergreens were brought indoors. Seeds were counted and protected. Quiet guardians were remembered.Th...
