Episode 095 Noble Eightfold Path #8 Right Concentration

About this episode

The episode discusses the final aspects of the Noble Eightfold Path while touching on various cultural and political themes.

The secret word of the day on this episode is.... BEDTIME! Are we sleepy or are we drunk? That will be for you to decide. Mister Mister rip off Billy Joel. Chess with the mentally unwell. We finish the final episode of Lost and talk about its religious connotations but Siobhan is incapable of describing anything clearly. We both say the words "fiddle-de-diddly". Turns out Ben Hur is a good film. Turns out the flow state is a good state. Turns out Jesus is a good fellow. Superman does not satisfy us with his ending but get over it. Your politics are the equivalent of angrily walking past a hill. News is crap. Compassion is good. Oh, and as the title of this episode may suggest, we put the final nail in the Noble Eightfold Path.
