About this episode
Are you actually attracted to her, or are the microbes who call your body home tipping the scale in their interest? More philosophically, the expansive power of our microbiome elicits questions regarding the very nature of self. Commusings is our Sunday morning newsletter where we take a moment to think deeply on the topics of spirituality, philosophy, and culture. To sign up, visit onecommune.com.
