Jim Newman is a Non-Duality non-teacher who meets the paradox of living by offering the idea that there is nothing at all at his YouTube channel, @JimNewman01 . This is one of the most perplexing conversations we've ever had on the podcast, and is somewhere between a dadaist art piece, an Andy Kaufman performance, and an Andy Warhol show. It is best to sit back, allow it to wash over you, and to embrace for a moment that there is no there, there.
