#367 “Gods and Genes”: A Podcast Exploring Science & Spirituality

<p>Science and religion don’t have to be in conflict. In this special crossover, we premiere the pilot episode of “<a href='https://godsandgenes.podbean.com/'>Gods and Genes</a>”, a new brand podcast in the <a href='https://www.genepoolmedia.com/'>Gene Pool Media</a> network hosted by Amber Sher, MS, CGC.
