  • Summary

  • The Encomia Podcast takes broad, complex ideas in the world of philosophy and explains them in basic terms so that they can be applied and practiced in every day life. From ethics, to consciousness, to the nature of God, to achieving happiness, the show encourages listeners to think about complicated issues so that they can better understand the perspectives of others and their place in the crazy and confusing world we find ourselves in today. The podcast takes a laid back and relaxed approach to these problems, dropping the technical jargon and formalities used by most people in the field of philosophy in exchange for simple metaphors, comedy, and short, basic explanations of often overly explained concepts. Book by book, interview by interview, The Encomia Podcast attempts to get to the bottom of what it means to be human and to live in accordance with what is best for ourselves. Happiness is a choice. So come learn how to live your blessed life.
