Conversations with comedians, mystics and philosophers trying to make sense of it all.

I'm Marc Salmon, a comedian and practising Buddhist (who needs a lot more practice).
The Bardo Podcast is where I talk with comedians, philosophers, artists, mystics and other curious people about philosophy, spirituality, creativity, psychology, Buddhism, politics, culture and the messy business of being human.
Inspired by the Buddhist idea of the Bardo, a space of transition and uncertainty, the conversations explore different ways of seeing the world, making sense of change, and what it means to be human.
Sometimes it's serious, sometimes it's funny. It's always searching.
The podcast is completely independent. There's no production company behind it. It's just me trying to make the best conversations I can.

Marc Salmon is joined by Buddhist teacher, activist and author Lama Rod Owens for a conversation about love, anger, compassion and how we can change the world without losing our care for one another.
Author of Love and Rage and The New Saints, Lama Rod explores the relationship between Buddhist practice, social justice and collective liberation.
Together they talk about systemic collapse, community, performative goodness, accountability without punishment, masculinity, spiritual abolitionism, boundaries, grief and why laughter and joy matter.
