What does it take to keep a podcast going, year after year? J. Brown has been hosting Yoga Talks since 2015, and I’ve tuned in regularly. I’ve also been interviewed a couple of times (here and here), so I thought I’d turn things round and ask J. the questions!
As J. freely admits, he likes stirring things up. His blog appears on search engines with this introduction: “Outspoken and sometimes controversial yoga teacher and blogger J. Brown has sparked broad discussions in the yoga community...” Among other topics, we talk about:
The backlash to some of his episodes, and how he handles criticism
A shift away from polarisation to more harmonious forms of dialogue
What inspires his choice of guests, and his approach to yoga generally
Why he rejected his parents’ religion, and found solace in practices
How he reconciles resistance to authority with embracing a deity
