על אודות פודקאסט זה 🔗
In its three hour-long programs, SEARCHING asks deep and timeless questions: Where do we humans fit in the grand scheme of things? Why do we yearn for permanence in an impermanent universe? Are we just atoms and molecules, or something more? All of the conversations lasted for much longer than we could include in the broadcast. This series of SEARCHING podcasts gives us an opportunity to share with you some of those extended conversations.
