{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"The Subtle Forces Podcast","slug":"subtleforces","podcastDescription":"

An unpredictable show in which Anja Notanja explores a different “subtle force” through essays, interviews and experiments. Episodes are released sporadically because Anja is a human rather than a content robot.

Also available here: episodes of Anja Asks Anybody, Anja's weekly show on Riverwest Radio where she talks with one anybody at a time.
