Summary

Krista Tippett, informed by decades of inquiry through her super-project, On Being, sits with Kelly to consider what’s in flux, what needs will never abate and what we might rediscover in new forms. In this moment when everything is broken open, when institutions are received with less reverence and more skepticism, where should we point our minds and hearts? What practices serve us best? This is a conversation to share with every thinking friend in your life and use as fodder for your own search for a spiritual home. Thanks to our many friends at the Aspen Ideas Festival for making this interview possible. This conversation was captured before the SAG-AFTRA strike.

0:00.0	My working definition of spiritual life at its best is befriending reality.
0:08.0	Welcome to Kelly Corrigan Wonders. I'm Kelly Corrigan and today I'm kicking off a new series
0:13.6	we're calling after much study. Conversations with people who spend most of their lives
0:20.0	learning. The series features three voices, Rainwellson, Dan Harris, and my conversation partner
0:28.4	today the great Krista Tippett. You know her from her radio show and podcast on being,

1:18.2	conversation I had with Krista Tippett while both of us were at the Aspen Ideas Festival.
1:24.0	Krista is a journalist and an author she studied at the Yale Divinity School. She's a
1:28.4	Peabody Award-winning broadcaster. I have admired her for many years. I often listen to on being,
1:34.8	particularly their series of poems, which I feel you just can't get enough of. On being has been
1:41.1	her life's work that has expanded into all kinds of really interesting side projects,

1:53.7	Or at least that's how President Obama put it in 2014 when he awarded Krista the National
1:59.5	Humanities Medal at the White House.
2:06.4	Hi, Krista Tippett. Hello. So great to be with you. Yeah. So I want to put a few things you've
2:12.9	said back in front of you and let you expand a little bit. The first is we are among the first
2:19.2	peoples in human history who do not broadly inherit religious identity as a given, a matter of
2:24.9	kin and tribe, like hair color and hometown. And I'm reading everywhere I like about religious
