This Artificial Life

A very loose, personality-driven show where the host explores consciousness, AI sentience, and altered-state ideas through guest interviews and sometimes personal/therapeutic reenactments. If you speak at the intersection of AI, philosophy of mind, and spirituality/psychology (especially with a creative or experimental angle), there’s good fit and an opportunity to reach an audience that values “framing” more than formal credibility.
