Recent Reviews
  • ethics of avoidance?
    In an attempted practice towards not becoming “the crisis,” just avoids it completely
    Six months in and not a single story, writer, perspective, literally word about Gaza? I’m sorry, is the pace with which over thirty-thousand people being slaughtered and 1.4 million being forcibly starved on a live feed too fast for your magazine/podcast’s “ethics of ‘slow consumption”’?

    Nourishment
    Thank you, Emanuel, for this soulful podcast. It speaks to another part in us that has atrophied severely since the industrial capitalist system has taken charge of our world. It feeds this part and reminds us to stay human kind.

    Hopeful calm
    Somehow calm and relaxing while witnessing the beauty and pain in the world that leaves you feeling deeply empowered to be the change. Shares helpful inspiring practices to reconnect w everyday nature. Really brilliant. Frequently leaves me feeling awe.

    Amazing and Awesome
    I have the collection of essays, stories, and art work in a beautiful bound book and love everything about this. I also am loving this podcast and was thrilled to listen to my favorite author Ben Okri and hear his story read so beautifully. I also loved the interview with James Bridle!
  • Eric Riddle
    Among the best podcasts if you love nature
    Great work, Emergence!
  • Dale Biron, Citizen Poet
    Stunning and Brilliant
    I found this particular episode both stunning and brilliant. Having lived in the San Francisco Bay Area (and in love with Point Reyes) for many years, I am amazed at how much history I did not know. There was something about the combination of personal narrative added to stories of history missing in the typical narratives, that were both gifts intellectually and for the heart. Well done…

    Soul nourishment
    Borrowing from another reviewer, this podcast is soul nourishment for these deeply troubling times. It animates the hidden and gives voice to the overlooked and forgotten. A healing vessel indeed…

    Soul Nourishment
    I read my hard copies of the annual Emergence Magazine like a holy book. I listen with great openness while I paint. I dream of contributing someday myself. A stunning project.

    Great Listening
    I’m a new listener and had such a wonderful time binging older Emergence episodes. Compelling writing, great sound quality - what more could you ask for in a podcast?
  • DKMNYC
    Essential, Important and Moving
    I never rate podcasts - this publication has been a lifeline over the past few weeks. The work is beautiful and after each episode I find myself moved - towards reflection, collective good, caring about others and our complex world. Particularly during this pandemic, I find these episodes almost meditative in their ability to both wake me up and calm me down. Thank you for every episode!

    Seed savers
    Just listened to my first Emergence episode and immediately shared the episode. It also reawakened my love of gardening and the pleasure of planting seeds. Nurturing the plants and harvesting carrots, peas and squash. Squash seeds and hollyhocks are the only seeds I have saved for use. Thanks for this episode.
  • Mr. MathLaughlin
    Breathtakingly good
    A few weeks ago, a coworker insisted that I check out Emergence. I have absolutely loved everything I’ve experienced from them, from profound essays read aloud on the podcast by Paul Kingsnorth and Aylie Baker to the online virtual Shikoku pilgrimage that left my wife and I in tears. Emergence is putting out some of the very best spiritual content being made today, and I can only hope that they continue for a very long time!

    Simply Profound
    Emergence Magazine is, in my opinion, everything that a digital experience should be. It is a modern epitome of spiritualism on a multimedia platform consisting of essays, articles, videos, and podcasts. Each feature is expertly crafted, curated, and narrated by the Emergence Mag team. These podcasts are unique in that they always seem to take the small and large implications of a topic on ecology, carefully mend the two together, and then deliver deeply moving message to resonate with listeners in this ever-changing time we live in. I highly recommend this podcast if you are looking for inspiration, perspective, and spiritual growth.
