Neuroscientist and host of the guided meditation app Waking Up Sam Harris returns to discuss tech’s effect on our psyches. And how the loss of “liminal” spaces may alter us as a culture.

Since 2013, Harris has hosted the Making Sense podcast, which produced his 2020 book, Making Sense: Conversations on Consciousness, Morality, and the Future of Humanity. Sam’s 2014 book Waking Up: A Guide to Spirituality Without Religion, inspired his WAKING UP meditation app.

Susie Essman is best known as the foul-mouthed Susie Greene on HBO’s CURB YOUR ENTHUSIASM. For 12 seasons her character berated her show biz manager husband, played by Jeff Garlin, and his client, played by Larry David, in expletive-laden tirades that remain masterclasses in verbally-castrating vulgarity. Actor Armin Shimerman is best known as the iconic Ferengi alien Quark on STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE NINE. But it was a love of classical drama that led him to a career in theatre and, eventually, earned him a place in the science-fiction pantheon.
