More than a decade ago I used to watch Doreen Virtue’s weekly tarot forecast and eagerly wait to see if her predictions came true. Like so many other folks who were looking to modern new age spirituality to answer questions and help create a life full of purpose. She offered tarot-esque decks that had themes like mermaids and angels and said anyone could learn how to read and hear the voices. It was all so fluffy and fun. But then Doreen seemingly heard the voice of God, became a born-again Christian, and denounced all her previous work. She now spends her time telling her followers how to be good Christians and how to spot the devil in modern new-age culture. Plot twist!

The Superficial Spirit is a podcast that explores how pop culture affects our spiritual experiences and seeks to uncover unconventional ways people experience the divine…Every episode explores a different area of spirituality including tarot, crystals, psychics, manifesting, plant medicine and modern new-age trends. In the podcast, we ask questions like is modern spirituality a cult? Is Ayahuasca really that profound? Are psychics and tarot even real? What about fame, money, sex and social media? How do they affect our spirituality? Can the superficial really be profound? Ultimately, we believe in one thing: spirituality is real but the tools we use to define it may not be magical at all.
The Superficial Spirit is hosted by Peter Breeze, a former club kid and underground pop star who found success in queer clubs across Canada and America. He believes that his time as a fame-obsessed, hard-partying club-kid was a conduit for his spirituality and is passionate to connect with people who've also had unconventional or scandalous experiences exploring their own spirituality. Peter shamelessly explores the spiritual power of celebrities like Britney Spears, Courtney Love, Paris Hilton and The Real Housewives.
Guests include RuPaul's Drag Race Superstars, Reality TV stars, Scientists, witches, psychics, tarot readers, naturopathic doctors and regular people who've been affected by modern Spirituality.
