We start every episode of the Star River Podcast with The Ritual: we share a drink.
Whether we share a cup of tea, a local vintage, or a simple glass of water, the drink is our anchor. By slowing down to share a cup and a conversation, we honor the ancient relationship between humanity and the stars.
