In Episode 17, we are joined by writer and inspiration Michael Allen to discuss his deeply personal film, A Long Road to Tao. Based on Michael’s own life, the film explores a writer’s transformative journey upon learning his best friend, a former pro-surfer, is gay and dying of AIDS. Together, they embrace Taoist and Native American spiritual philosophies while finding joy in “one last stoke” before confronting mortality. Through this poignant tale of love and loss, Michael shares how his story aims to entertain, educate, and enlighten audiences, leaving them inspired and reflective.
