These talks and teachings are curated by Mark Watts, Alan’s son. After listening to many of the recordings I’ve increased my understanding of Eastern philosophy. I highly recommend for anyone on the path of wise understanding.

Great overview on eastern religion and spiritualism

Thanks - his voice is a calming balm in this crazy mixed up world

Thank you for doing this. It is so much appreciated. So glad you came out with a new episode. I am worried you may not be feeling it. The episodes seem to come out at random intervals and they are pretty sparse. If you aren’t feeling it I would like you to know that Alan Watts, though I’ve never met him, has been a fundamental part of myself becoming a better person for many years now. What I have learned from his talks has been a life changer for me. I still continue to learn from him even after I’ve heard a talk enough to memorize it. You are an awesome person Mark to do this podcast. I’m sure Alan Watts has changed others lives as he has mine. With you sharing this you will be helping to change the lives of future persons also. Please keep it up. And know that we all appreciate you very much. edit: better help. so now there will be commercials in the middle of the podcast? alan watts is my better help. please stop with them in the middle of the podcast.

Thank you so much for sharing his talks with us

That is what Alan’s voice is!

It’s nice to hear Mr. Watts talk from the source his son. R.I.P.

Such an important work to let everyone hear his work. Missing Alan Watts view point is like missing that Trees Blooms. Thank you Thank you Thank you

Accessible archives like this are so important.

This man is a legend and the grandfather I never got to experience. I wished I had known of him sooner. I went and bought the whole collection I was so impressed with his teachings.

I have a couple of Alan‘s books, but it is so much better hearing him speak, I think. He communicates such deep and profound concepts with a sense of humor. His ability to synthesize wisdom from several different spiritual traditions, so fluently, is one of a kind. All the episodes demand repeat listens.

The great audio quality makes Alan’s voice somehow more beautiful. Thank you for sharing these recordings. I began listening to Alan Watts as a teen in the early 2000’s around the same time I learned about Taoism through The Tao of Pooh :) but at the time I didn’t know who I was even hearing tbh I just knew it felt right and felt comfortable. I’ve stayed a Taoist, by doing nothing and always changing. Tuning into yourself and the natural rhythm of the universe is the only way to live. Listening to these episodes will change your mind, for the better. <3

Grateful for these recordings

Alan Watts has a way of speaking to my soul and inspiring my mind. He makes me want to learn more. Thank you, from this life to the next. 707 NDN #Wiyot

Listen every day. ✨✨✨✨

Thank you, Mark Watts, for sharing your father’s wonderful works. It’s a real pleasure and privilege to be able to listen to and enjoy his teachings today ❤️

About 2 weeks ago I found your father on YouTube. Chopped up copycat videos were tolerable for a little while but at least it gets the message out. The most important thing is that Allan has really changed my life! I have uncoupled from the freight trains and I’m able to embrace all aspects of life serenely in a state of oneness. And most importantly to be like an actor in a Timelapse scene who stands calmly and unaffected while everything moves around them in a blur and to have that state of mind towards my internal thoughts etc. “there are no bad thoughts only wrong ways to act upon them.” So imagine the joy I have in finding this podcast hosted by you! Thanks to you, your team and your dad!

Thank you so much Mark & Team for this podcast, one of my absolute favorite podcasts, if not my favorite ♥️ love the background on the time the lectures took place too. Very grateful for your work and always look forward to these lectures 💗thank you all 🙏

Absolutely love & appreciate these words that come from Alan & this podcast. A way to listen to great content with good quality recordings. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Always watching for the next episode.

Thanks so much for making it happen!🙏💗. New episodes take too long to come out though.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this! I so appreciate the generosity of putting this out there and making it so accessible. These ideas could save the world.. Bye bye YouTube - I’ll take my Watts this way from now on ✌🏼

I have read Alan Watts since the early 1970’s, and enjoy these recordings as complementary to the books. Alan’s perspectives seem relevant even in 2021, and I find myself telling others “you won’t believe what Alan Watts said in 1968!” Reflections on a society caught up in delusions, anger, greed and lust for power. His comments predated the internet, but sitting in front of the TV eating TV dinners back then, has evolved into sitting in front of a smart phone, or streaming service / TV, endlessly watching contentious “news”, fantasies, “reality shows” or social media. Thank you Mark.

Thank you thank you thank you for creating this podcast!!!!!

Some truly amazing talks from the Watts archives, lovingly curated and compiled by his son. Episode 6 is the best yet, containing a treasure trove of hilarious insight and wisdom. Watts’ discourses are just as alive and electric today as they were when he gave them.

Thank you for sharing your fathers work with us who enjoy his thoughts. I’ve been reading books and watching videos of his work but this podcast makes it so easy to tune in on my drive to work with a simple press of a button on each new episode. I look forward to the many uploads to come. :)

Mark, I thank you and your entire team for putting forth the noble effort of organizing and propagating these wonderful lectures. To share across this platform expounds on your father’s purpose with depth and a delicate meaning. Namaste

Thanks so much Mark, Be Here Now, and those who made this possible.

I’ve listened to scores of hours of Alan Watts’ talks, and the wisdom he imparts and the playful spirit in which he does so keeps his talks fresh, delightful, and meaningful. He distilled the essence of Buddhist, Hindu, Taoist, and even Gnostic thought in a way that makes these philosophies palatable and digestible to the western mind. Thanks to his son Mark for keeping his father’s legacy alive and for starting this podcast.

Deeply grateful for this podcast. Excited for the episodes to come.

Few would argue that Alan’s lectures were one of the most precious gifts from any human designed to raise our consciousness to meet the future. My life has been profoundly evolved by this one man. PS please lose the background noise/music during his words. It is so disturbing.

I’m newer to the ideas of Eastern thought, and this podcast is deep truth presented masterfully to make it simple to understand for those of us unfamiliar with the ideas presented.

Thank you for creating this in a format that is available to so many! You are doing a great thing for us all!

I will voraciously consume this podcast as soon as episodes are uploaded… please send us more!

Finally!!! Alan Watts!!

Several episodes should have already been li ed up prior to launch. No value added here beyond what you can get on Youtube.

I’m so grateful for your podcast especially during the Pandemic. The loneliness and isolation have been overwhelming, but meditation and mindfulness practices have been critical to my life. Alan Watts’s works are so accessible to those of us who thirst for self-discovery and search for wisdom of returning to the Present. Please continue to add to this collection!

I really like that this follows the format of Ram Dass’ podcast. I enjoyed episode one and can’t wait for the other episodes. Overall a great podcast!

I’ve listen to nearly every Alan Watts podcast I can find. It’s wonderful that there is now an official one and it’s on my favorite podcast network for spiritual, mythological, and religious stuff. Ram Dass and Alan Watts are immortal wisdom embodied and their voices preserved for all of us is a blessing.

Amazing to have this in podcast form. Happy to be here. Thank you

Ever since the pandemic began last year, I was looking for something to relieve my nerves and calm me down, which was a challenge. I was introduced to Ram Dass first and then Alan Watts. Now two worlds will become one!? Yea, I already know this podcast is going to be amazing to listen to. Thank you guys for making this happen. You just made a lot of souls and spirits very very happy.
