Content

In this UNEDITED interview with philosophy professor we cover a wide range of topics, including Buddhist modernism & exoticism, the nature of the self(!), what Sam Harris and Robert Wright get wrong about Buddhism, and how all of this relates to the modern guru environment.

We enjoyed the discussion, Chris came out as an Evan fanboy, and we hope that you do too by the end!

This episode will not be released for a few weeks on the main feed so consider this a sneak peek!

And for those wondering, tomorrow the full interview with Jesse Singal will be released (with minor edits) on the main feed!
