In this deeply personal and cinematic podcast, Chris Gentile recounts a decade-long journey that begins with childhood anxiety and spirals into a full-blown crisis in his 20s. What starts as a search for relief becomes a gripping inward expedition marked by emotional turmoil, physical unraveling, and moments of mystical clarity. From hallucinations and identity dissolution to profound insight and resilience, Chris invites listeners to witness the unspooling and rewiring of his inner world.
Along the way, he stumbles into the territory of what has long been called spiritual awakening, offering a rare, grounded look at what the path to enlightenment actually feels like from the inside.
With immersive storytelling and raw emotional honesty, The Magic Robot isn’t just a story about meditation, it’s a modern hero’s journey into the depths of human consciousness, and a reminder that healing doesn’t always look the way we expect.
Chris Gentile produced, wrote, sound designed and edited the series.
