The King’s Radio Workshop is back with episode two of The Signal Podcast. This week, hosts Alex Rose and Caitrin Pilkington chat about the evolution of religion.

Eve Rosenthal from the Shambhala Centre talks meditation, while reporter Jennifer Lee asks millennials why they’re choosing spirituality over traditional religion.

We also talk to Dalhousie’s Zen Buddhism Chaplain about why people from all over the world are flocking to Nova Scotia to study Buddhism and hear from reporter Diana Foxall on the increasing popularity of Brahma Kumaris meditation in Halifax.

Follow Lara Lewis as she talks to a real life witch in Halifax’s pagan community, then hear from someone who spend a year living the monastic life at the Gampo Abbey in the Cape Breton Highlands. Finally, reporter Peter Topshee finds out why celebrities like Tom Cruise and John Travolta are attracted to the practice of scientology.
