  • Ep. 21 - "Fire Of Love"
    Jan 16 2025

    Last week, Jaymee was on the scene with his father to witness his parents Altadena home and all their possessions burn to the ground in the Eaton Fire. In this episode, Jaymee shares the details with Daren of how he and his brother Benjamin became instruments of unconditional support, guidance and gratitude for their parents at their darkest hour, and the kaleidoscopic spectrum of support their parents have received from complete strangers. You'll hear how through the loss of all their material possessions the Carpenter family have been reintroduced to the power of a loving Universe.

    The boys solve imaginary problems, perform on air miracles, dive deep into the artistic intuition with a smattering of name dropping for the first hour, then spend the last half hour calling fans of the show to learn about them for a frickin' change. This week we talk with a lactation nurse in Austin, a nature conservationist in South Carolina, and... well... "Clifford".
