Sheppard's Rest: Reflections about life, both the inscrutable and the beautiful

Society EN ↓ 197 episodes

Sheppard’s “Rest” is the voice version of blog posts written by me, Steve Sheppard. But I’ve long desired to add my own voice and my own style to those observations, and this podcast allows me to do just that. I have no pretenses about viral followings or creating commercial enterprise. I only mean for the entries to represent one man’s thinking about his life and the world in which he finds himself, as both indiscernible and lovely as that often is. I hope that my reflections may be of some comfort or affirmation for you on your own journey.
