    The Big Lebowski with Matthew Rand
    May 2 2025

    "The Dude abides..." What does that mean? And how do we - throughout life's hurdles (even when our rugs are micturated upon) - continue to abide?

In this conversation with Matthew Rand, we uncover the Dude's outlook and what we can glean from it as we trudge through our troubled world.
