Knocked Conscious with Mark PulsAuthor: Mark Puls
Knocked Conscious with Mark Puls explores the deep and often tangled intersections of society, culture, science, spirituality, and philosophy. This podcast isnt just about presenting ideas; its a journey into the heart of what we believe and why we believe it. Here, the goal is to: Spark Introspection: Encourage listeners to look within and question their own views. Challenge Beliefs: Engage in a critical analysis of established and emerging ideas. Cultivate New Perspectives: Introduce novel viewpoints and then rigorously debate their merits. Unite Science and Spirituality: Highlight the complementary nature of these fields, advocating for a synthesis where both are seen as essential to understanding our existence. Foster Enlightened Conversations: Serve as a beacon for those yearning for deep, thoughtful, and expansive discussions. By weaving together seemingly disparate threads, Knocked Conscious invites its audience into a space where complexity is embraced, and curiosity is the compass. Beer Googgles (double-E, double-O, double-G) is basically a show where we get drunk and look-up random #!T on the internet. Its the lighter side of our personalities. ***Disclaimer*** We are childish boys who make inappropriate jokes and some of them are extremely insensitive.

4/22/2026: If By Whiskey welcome John Graham of Giraffe Heroes Project
Episode 240
Wednesday, 22 April, 2026
This week on If By Whiskey, Mark & Jake welcome John Graham of the Giraffe Heroes Project—a guy who didn’t just talk about making a difference… he built an entire global movement around it. John is the Executive Director of the Giraffe Heroes Project, which has spent decades spotlighting ordinary people who take real risks to do the right thing (aka the folks making the rest of us look like we “retweeted something brave” and went back to snacks). His work has recognized thousands of unsung heroes, inspired classrooms, and quietly pushed people everywhere to be a little bolder and a little less comfortable. Plus, he literally wrote the book on it: Quest—Risk, Adventure and the Search for Meaning, where he dives into what drives people to choose purpose over comfort and why a meaningful life usually comes with at least a little chaos. Naturally, Mark & Jake respond to all this high-minded courage with jokes, whiskey, and some light self-reflection like, “Does ordering the second drink count as risk-taking?” It’s fun, it’s thoughtful, and it might even nudge you to do something mildly heroic… or at least slightly less lazy. Pour a drink, hang out, and meet a guy who’s spent a lifetime proving that heroism isn’t rare, it’s just usually underreported. 🎙️ New to streaming or looking to level up?
