Ep 67: Yin & Yang - Fire, Water, Duty & Feelings, Oceans of Memory, and the Dao of Diplomacy
What a time to be alive! Things are really heating up and in this episode Jost and Leon talk the topsy turvy topic of war and diplomacy, the observable - and rapid - increase in anger and outrage, and how these things link back to the mother of yin and yang: the Kidneys. The world is going through a massive shift, and navigating the rough seas of emotionality requires sure footing and a steadfast hold on reality (whatever that means).
Jost and Leon also discuss memories stored in the oceans, underwater UFOs, Godzilla, moving to Mars, and the repercussions of the 'yindemic'. Leon tries to explain exothermic core-mantle decoupling (perhaps not completely successfully) and why the Great Pyramid of Giza has water damage. As always our health is at the core of everything, and our Kidneys are responsible for stabilising our true nature. In a time when so many are losing their grip, it is now imperative to stick to our guns and be true to ourselves.

Ep 66: The Great Divide - Good vs Bad Health, Vigilance, Selfishness, the Shaolin Spirit, and Fighting without Fighting
In this episode, Jost and Leon navigate the great divide - the phenomenon that not only separates us politically, but that splinters us even further based on every issue imaginable. The biggest loser is our health, and this is where the battle is being fought whether we realise it or not.
Jost gets into the Taoist and Chinese medicine perspective on division and transformation, how they are inseparable from current events, and the organ that allows us to distinguish relevant issues with clarity before making decisions. Jost and Leon also discuss Bobby Kennedy Jr’s confirmation hearings and his face-off with Bernie Sanders, and what this confrontation represents in the bigger picture. Leon talks about a serendipitous discovery of JFK’s affinity for design and the symbol of hope his legacy left behind. Jost and Leon also chat about the dead internet theory, bomb-proof suits, the Shaolin way, and what happens when you mention the “T” word.
While it feels like we’re in a battle of good vs evil, it’s really a battle between good and ill health, so we now have to cultivate our personal health as a form of resistance against divisive forces. The great divide isn’t about picking sides, it’s about finding clarity in chaos.

Ep 65: Transformation - Triggering, Grounding, Spiritual Fire, Unskilled Anger, Patterns of Disruption, and Our Infinite Nature
Future Chi is back, and what better way to kick off a new season - and a new year - than with a lively discussion on the unstable, disruptive, and infinitely unexpected times we're living in.
In this episode Jost and Leon cover everything from angry outbursts (and what causes them), road rage, patterns of disruption, the positive sides of AI (and how it gives us access to our higher selves), and the recent changes to Facebook's censorship policies (which Jost and Leon have differing points of view on!).
We're entering into an era that requires us to grow and transform. We're here to be infinite, unlimited and all powerful, and to share this with the world. But we must also build yin and keep grounded if we want to channel that energy into a force for good. So keep the flame of your spiritual fire burning bright, and light up the darkness!
