What the Buddha actually taught is far deeper than most Dhamma talks suggest. These podcast series go beyond the familiar surface — beyond "be kind," "let go," "be in the present moment" — and into the actual discourses of the Pali Canon, read the way the Theravāda tradition has always read them: root text first, then the ancient commentary and sub-commentary, each layer entering only where it genuinely deepens what came before. Plain English. No personal interpretation. No opinions. Just the teachings opened up the discourse, one by one, for anyone willing to go deeper.

December 31, 1999: The world braced for disaster as midnight approached. Then, nothing happened. The hysteria over the Y2K computer bug quickly became an afterthought; a punch-line. In Surviving Y2K, Dan Taberski takes you back to the turn of the millennium to meet the people for whom it was anything but a joke — computer coders, conspiracy theorists, survivalists, and true believers — as they each face their own version of the apocalypse. And Dan tells a new millennium story of his own, about a decision that could destroy his life.

Headlong is Dan Taberski’s documentary podcast that explores the lives of overlooked people, moments and events in our culture. Season 1 is Missing Richard Simmons. Season 3 is Running From COPS.
