Lloyd Dobler reads Chapter 1 of the Tao Te Ching and wrestles with desire, delusion, and why enlightenment feels like buffering in a capitalist Wi-Fi zone.

The Tao that can be podcasted is not the eternal Tao. But that won’t stop Lloyd Dobler from trying.

Season 2 of The Tao of Lloyd begins here β€” one chapter of the Tao Te Ching at a time. In this premiere, Lloyd wrestles with Chapter 1, chasing stillness in an empire addicted to noise. Along the way, he confesses to losing his breath, his center, and possibly his last remaining Patreon subscriber.

Expect spiritual irreverence, political despair, and the occasional flash of transcendence. It’s a guided meditation for people who meditate badly β€” and still show up anyway.

πŸŒ€ From the edge of empire and the center of self.
