So many of us worry. About everything. But as we near the American presidential election more of us are getting sick from worrying. Here, cohosts Carter and teZa Lord share how they deal with their worries. It’s a human trait, our mind’s generating worry, fear, sadness, depression. Our minds can heal this dis-ease as well. Let’s befriend our minds instead of letting it remain our enemy. Love (starting with loving our own self, first) is the weapon of mass illumination.

After a short hiatus hosts teZa and Carter Lord are back. Speaking about how important it is to take breaks from our lives, to reassess, to reaffirm, to know where we’re going and where we’ve come from. Speaking from the same Maine farmhouse where they started ZLORD podcasting five years ago, the couple can see where they’re going more clearly than ever. How important it is, to step aside from one’s everyday life, to be more objective. To bring choices of joy and happiness to themselves and to all they can connect with.

Many people are emotionally strained these days. With both national and worldwide events escalating daily, many are nervous, many are angry, some are contemptuous of others on “the other side.” In this episode cohosts teZa and Carter Lord discuss what is the obvious solution: civility. And detachment from toxic people and situations. How to practice these choices though, when face to face with others’ incivility is the solution for changing negative-dark situations into more positive, light-filled ones.

Life on planet Earth is getting more tense by the moment. Some of us though, see all challenges as opportunities for choosing how to live in conflicted times — responding, not reacting, with peace and calm instead of revenge and violent solutions. Cohosts teZa and Carter Lord share their perspectives on the hyper-explosive situation in the Middle East, compounded by the ongoing conflict between the dominance of Russia over the fighting-for-survival Ukraine.

Whether a world crisis or a personal resentment, we all contribute to elevating our world (or not) by the action we choose to take. In this episode, cohosts Carter and teZa Lord talk about the recent atrocities in the Middle East’s Gaza, and how we can relate this show-down between extremist-Hamas and Israel in the bigger world arena—to having a resentment against our neighbor, something all of us can relate to. See tezalord.com and carterlord.com for more about hosts. 

After last week’s unprecedented violence by Hamas extremists in Israel’s Gaza Strip, cohost teZa and Carter Lord attempt to explain their relationship with the Divine, the blatant cause of too many wars. For these two long-marrieds, they experience the Sacred through both personal inner experiences, like meditation and serving others, as well as through spiritual teachings, such as “The Word” offered in religious texts. Both defend their very different stands on the modern question of: “Is God dead?” debated by various seekers and anti-religious alike. The Lords’ conclusion? Yes! ALL Religions serve as a beacon of hope for many in our otherwise insane world. But extremists—of any ilk—can make anything a trip to hell with their narrow, intolerant interpretation of what is, in essence, simply one’s version of goodness: being a decent human being.

All of us face many unknowns. Our health could be threatened or we might lose a loved one suddenly, or any of a long list of worrisome “could be’s” accompanies each of us, every day. In this episode Carter reveals to cohost teZa his concerns over a serious surgical complication that has arisen from his recent joint replacement. With good cheer the pair discuss the endless possibilities of both life—and death. The hosts agreed with Warf the feisty Clingon of Star Trek fame, who says at any given opportunity—“It’s a good day to die!” See tezalord.com and carterlord.com for more about the hosts.
