Well done. You've sorted through the embarrassment of riches that is the modern podcast landscape

and found me Rob Briden on my podcast. In this series of Briden and I talk to among

others Harry Hill, Ben Elton, Charlotte Church, Steve Cougan and Dame Harriet Walter.

And that's just a few. We tend to chat for about 45 minutes to an hour never longer.

It's terrific conversation, reminiscent where appropriate and exchange of anecdotes.

So do join me Rob Briden wherever you get your podcasts.

New episodes of Briden and are available early and ad free on Amazon Music or by subscribing

to Wondery Plus in Apple Podcasts or the Wondery app.

The Panic is a new comedy podcast from Wondery that leans into our most absurd anxieties and

defuses them with humor and actual advice. Listen to Don't Panic on the Wondery app or

wherever you get your podcasts.

Hey, hey, one of the things we like to do on this podcast once in a while is to bring

in somebody who's practicing and or teaching meditation in what you might consider to be

a deeply inhospitable environment. This week we've got somebody who's doing that in spades.

His name is Justin Von Boydosh and he teaches meditation on Rikers Island, the infamous

jail right here in New York City. He's got quite a story to tell. Here he is.

From ABC, this is the 10% happier podcast. I'm Dan Harris.

Thanks for doing this.

Thank you.

So how did you get into the meditation game?

It started very early and I want to say I was in middle school. My parents introduced me

to Transcendental Meditation.
