Since February 2025 we run our podcast “Metameaning” (Link here), where we inquire into the topics that we also address here on the website.
In December 2024 we were invited to “Shrinking Trump”, the podcast of our wonderful friends Dr. Harry Segal and Dr. John Gardner. The exchange was so beneficial and inspiring that we wanted to continue in some form – also because we could read in the comments how many people find the podcast helpful and how much support it gives them in these difficult times.
That’s why we wanted to find a format ourselves that offers emotional, therapeutic, spiritual support to deal with the crisis of meaning as a result of the global meta-crisis. We want to create a space to deal with grief, fear and stress. A space to be able to differentiate between reactivity and response-ability in one’s own behavior. To remain present and loving and to be able to act wisely. To collect supportive, helpful, but also creative things.
In each episode, we would like to explain one or two terms or concepts that illustrate different aspects of the meta-crisis, e.g. fear versus basic trust, “bullshit” (according to H. Frankfurt) vs. love and value of truth, or as mentioned, reactivity versus response-ability… etc.
And in another section of the podcast, there is a “Therapeutic Medicine Cabinet”, analogous to Erich Kästner’s “Lyrical Medicine Cabinet”. Here we want to present thoughts, suggestions, and poems that are as helpful as Kästner described them.
