Welcome to another episode of A Buddhist Podcast! On tonights show we have William Woollard reading the last part of Buddhism and the science of happiness, Appendix B. This is the show that is for every beginner you have ever wanted to have something to say, “Here, listen to this, this is the basics of Buddhism!”
By popular demand we have some more questions that we do our best to answer as well as the traditional shoutouts!
In addition, we have music from the Podsafe Music Network. We play England by the great band, Great Big Sea and When We Are Old by Molly Magdalain.
This is the first show that we use the new octa capture interface from Roland, so let us know what you make of the sound, we want to improve!
Have a fabulous week and thank you so much for listening.
