Almost Enlightened is a show about discovery. Reflection is the lens through which the host, Alex, takes you on a journey of thought and emotion. Intertwining observation and experience, Alex's reflections are certainly thought provoking, often times eliciting a panoply of conflicting emotions. That's natural and that's deliberate. If you're interested in seeing life from a variety of perspectives; if you're interested in developing an ability to think for yourself, then this is the show for you! This is different. Are you okay with different?

    Beliefs and Behaviours

    I had a revelation the other night: I can't keep thinking and acting the way I've been thinking and acting. My thinking and acting just don't line-up with what I believe anymore. So I guess it's time to make some changes. I hope you enjoy this episode as much as I enjoyed creating it.

    Fixing a Broken Education System with Michael Maloney

    Why do we put-up with an education system that systematically ignores solutions to illiteracy and innumeracy?
