About Meditation SUCKS! (if you don't practice it)
Welcome to your new favorite meditation podcast.
Meditation SUCKS is the podcast for everyone who’s ever tried to meditate and thought, “Am I doing this right?” or “Is this even working?”
Hosted by Sebastian Rusk, a podcaster and comedian who knows that meditation can feel awkward, boring, and sometimes downright impossible, this show is all about making mindfulness fun, accessible, and a little less serious.
