Philosophical Entertainment is a concept coined by Alan Watts, who referred to himself as a Philosophical Entertainer. Through listening to Watts, we decided to take up the mantra of making philosophy entertaining again!
Science only studies the usual, which is why our objective has been to take uncommon topics (the more taboo the better) and dive into why it makes us uncomfortable. As we settle into our fears, we find that it is what lies behind the heebie jeebies that has us scared; it is death that has us frightened. That being the case, we want to explore death and find out why we feel so unsettled with our own mortality.

Season 4, Episode 17: Remembering Who We Are: A Soul Dialogue with Jeanne Comeau (Part 1)
Episode Overview
In this expansive and soul-deepening opening to a powerful trilogy, Nirakara Vani meets Jeanne Comeau, PhD for the first time—and what unfolds is nothing short of alchemical. This isn’t a typical interview. It’s the sacred moment when two old souls recognize each other mid-journey, and what begins as conversation becomes communion.
Through stories, silence, and spontaneous insight, Jeanne and Vani explore the evolution of identity, the role of trauma in awakening, and the deep inner permission required to shift from who we’ve been to who we’re becoming. They speak about language as a technology of transformation, about astrology as soul-mapping, and about the strange beauty of remembering ourselves in real time.
This episode opens the door to profound recognition—for both host and listener. If you’ve ever felt like you were waiting for a sign to let go of the past and soften into your becoming… this might be it.
