Knocked Conscious Podcast
Knocked Conscious with Mark Puls explores the deep and often tangled intersections of society, culture, science, spirituality, and philosophy. This podcast isn’t just about presenting ideas; it’s a journey into the heart of what we believe and why we believe it. Here, the goal is to: Spark Introspection: Encourage listeners to look within and question their own views. Challenge Beliefs: Engage in a critical analysis of established and emerging ideas. Cultivate New Perspectives: Introduce novel viewpoints and then rigorously debate their merits. Unite Science and Spirituality: Highlight the complementary nature of these fields, advocating for a synthesis where both are seen as essential to understanding our existence. Foster Enlightened Conversations: Serve as a beacon for those yearning for deep, thoughtful, and expansive discussions. By weaving together seemingly disparate threads, Knocked Conscious invites its audience into a space where complexity is embraced, and curiosity is the compass. Beer Googgles (double-E, double-O, double-G) is basically a show where we get drunk and look-up random $#!T on the internet. It’s the lighter side of our personalities. ***Disclaimer*** We are childish boys who make inappropriate jokes and some of them are extremely insensitive.

We always intend humor (not malice) with every comment we make, so please keep that in mind as we stick multiple feet in our mouths.
