0:00.0 | Welcome to the Commune podcast. My name is Jeff Krasno. |
0:11.1 | How many of you may receive my weekly Sunday commusing article where I address a breadth of issues |
0:16.4 | from the spiritual to the physiological to the sociopolitical. And on occasion, I will also record |
0:23.7 | an audio version of these articles and release it here as a bonus episode. Now, those of us who |
0:30.0 | prefer an organic Whole Foods diet or champion regenerative agriculture are innately leery of anything, air quotes, artificial. |

0:44.7 | We campaign against artificial inputs that degrade our soil and denude our plants of nutrients. |

1:47.5 | of the emotional, linguistic, musical, and logical varieties, I need to maintain an open mind. |
1:56.2 | Perhaps there is art in the artificial, or perhaps artist just sort for Arthur. |
2:02.4 | Today's episode pokes at this emerging ethically fraught creation. |
2:08.2 | Before I dive in, though, I want to encourage everyone to sign up for my new course, Good Stress, |
2:14.4 | where I unpack the protocols that optimize our ability to find balance in the body, |
2:22.0 | otherwise known as homeostasis. |
