The show usually is recorded in a pub--that's why there is some background noise on occasion. The topics can vary widely seeing as the Pugsters have different spheres of knowledge and interest, but common themes which appear regularly include the transcendence of God and the meaningfulness of His creation.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-08T18:19:49.635117+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-theology-pugcast-696088"},"episode":{"title":"Is Nature Conscious?","slug":"is-nature-conscious","published_at":"2026-04-06T08:42:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-theology-pugcast-696088/is-nature-conscious","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-theology-pugcast-696088","url":"https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-theology-pugcast/episodes/Is-Nature-Conscious-e3hb3a7","audio_url":"https://anchor.fm/s/930b87c/podcast/play/117852935/https%3A%2F%2Fd3ctxlq1ktw2nl.cloudfront.net%2Fstaging%2F2026-3-2%2F421274952-44100-2-b6724d5025935.mp3","summary":"In this episode, the Pugsters begin with a discussion of panpsychism, the idea that everything has a form of consciousness. In a world where even trees communicate with each other, how should we think about panpsychism? Is consciousness at the base of reality as some physicists and philosophers suggest? And what about the Orthodox (and unorthodox) ideas of panentheism? These are some of the questions the guys talk about in this episode.
