Episode 119 - Amy Berg

Amy Berg is an Academy Award nominated documentary filmmaker known for her groundbreaking storytelling in films like 'Deliver Us From Evil', 'West Of Memphis', and the new Jeff Buckley documentary 'It's Never Over, Jeff Buckley'. In her most revealing interview to date, Amy and Jaymee discuss loss and forgiveness, limitless empathy for the underdogs, what it was like being a rising star and a single mother in the golden age of documentary filmmaking, her unknown LA punk rock roots, the sainthood of Jeff Buckley, and the making of her next documentary on the life of Chris Cornell. 


Recorded in the ballroom of The El Roblar Hotel in Ojai, CA. Special thanks to Jeremy and Eric, and David Berger at the Ojai Playhouse.

Episode 118 - Rob Bell

Rob Bell is an American author, speaker, and former pastor known for his books challenging traditional Christian views. He’s a New York Times Bestselling author of fourteen books, including the bestseller 'Love Wins'. Rob and Jaymee meet for the first time and sparks fly, which set the stage for a highly engaging (and hilarious) conversation on the nature of God, the mechanism of belief, the subversive nature of joy, making friends with fear, the utility of nostalgia and what inspires him today.

Memorial: Diana J. Mukpo

On the morning of September 11th 2025, Lady Diana J. Mukpo, who was Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche’s wife, closest friend, and confidant, and a brilliant Buddhist teacher in her own right passed away. Jaymee was granted the incredibly rare opportunity to interview Lady Diana in 2023 on the 36th anniversary of Trungpa Rinpoche's passing (April 4th, 1987) while she herself was hospitalized related to her ongoing battle with cancer. This in depth interview would sadly be her last, and is being re-released as a small offering of condolence to her family, many friends, students and admirers. Within this hour we discuss her extraordinary life journey as the Queen Of Shambhala. There are those who may be intimately familiar with the books and teachings of Chogyam Trungpa Rinpoche, but have yet to be introduced properly to the extraordinary feminine force by his side all of those years who made so much of what he accomplished in the west possible, planting initial seeds of the Buddha dharma to flourish for future generations.

Episode 117 - Adam Goldberg

What do Dazed And Confused, Saving Private Ryan, A Beautiful Mind, Zodiac and the sitcom Friends have in common? Adam Goldberg, who’s been a working actor in Hollywood now for over three decades contributing memorable roles (and catch phrases) to some of the most iconic films in cinema history. In this 2 1/2 hour conversation with Jaymee, Adam shares his gratitude as well as some of the pitfalls and triumphs of working in the industry, everything from the highs of being hand selected by legendary directors like Stephen Speilberg and Richard Linklater, to the lows of developing an anxiety disorder from some of his most important roles and  the creative straightjacket of being typecast. He may have even (inadvertently) pissed off Quentin Tarantino somewhere along the way. Get ready for a real look behind the curtain of the Hollywood dream, which may not be quite what you thought it was.

Episode 115 - Lama Lhanang Rinpoche

Jaymee sits down with his spiritual teacher and guru, Lama Lhanang Rinpoche, for a deep conversation on how every word and thought functions as prayer, the difference between ordinary love and unconditional love in Buddhism, and how to approach impermanence, karma, and even daily interruptions with mindfulness. Rinpoche also explains the paradox of being both disciplined and relaxed in practice, the power of devotion, and how to hold compassion for those who cause harm. You'll learn details about the upcoming San Diego Celebration of Awakening: World Peace Through Inner Peace Festival (September 20th, 2025), a day of interfaith dialogue, meditation, music, and cultural performance designed to cultivate peace from within.

Love Is The Author
Episode 101 - Chuck Testa & The Mormon Boys

A Buddhist, two Mormon Missionaries, and Chuck Testa walk into a conversation to try to find the cosmic punchline in this instant classic episode of non-stop hilarity and wisdom. Chuck Testa is easily the most recognizable taxidermist in the world, due to a viral commercial for Testa's business created by Rhett & Link for the show Rhett & Link: Commercial Kings, and the catchphrase "Nope, Chuck Testa!" became an Internet meme. Elder Hobbs and Elder Andersen are two Mormon young men currently fulfilling their missionary work in Ojai as part of their religious calling who have become friends with both Jaymee and Chuck (separately) canvassing door to door, and thought they all should meet. Jaymee facilitates a beautiful discussion between the men on the nature of faith, seeing past differences, and we learn a whole lot more about both Mormonism and Taxidermy in this groundbreaking episode.
