Zen and the Art of Remembering What You Were Just Doing
In this episode of Radio Buddha, Jesse dives into the wild world of distraction — from monkey mind to rogue fruit flies. You’ll hear stories, Buddhist wisdom (including a classic Ajahn Brahm tale involving monkeys and bananas), and simple mindfulness practices to help you come back to the moment — even if your brain feels like it has 53 tabs open.

Includes:

• A “Drop of Dharma” from Ajahn Brahm
• Micro-mindfulness tips for the mildly unhinged
• A guided one-minute meditation

Let’s laugh, breathe, and get a little less lost together.

"Do Buddhists believe in aliens? Would the Buddha have used TikTok? Can you meditate while scrolling Instagram?"

In the very first episode of Radio Buddha, Jesse — a 20‑year lay practitioner and fellow wanderer — spins the Wheel of Samsara to tackle 10 of the weirdest, funniest, and most not‑so‑profound questions about Buddhism. Along the way, we explore how ancient wisdom collides with modern life, with plenty of humor and curiosity to keep things light.

Includes:

• 10 playful questions about Buddhism (yes, aliens and iced coffee are on the list)
• A Drop of Dharma with Pema Chödrön’s classic “strawberry” story
• A quick 30‑second mindfulness practice you can do anywhere
