From exploring non-commercialized spirituality to advocating for animal rights—and living a life steeped in acting—Billy McNamara has seen it all. In this episode, the actor-turned-citizen firefighter breaks down his wild ride, starting with his early days rolling with Krishna Das and the Neem Karoli Baba crew, witnessing firsthand how yoga and spirituality got packaged for mass consumption.

Then, we shift gears—hard. Billy takes us into the trenches of real-world activism, where the stakes aren’t enlightenment but survival. He’s protected whales from illegal hunters, fought for dolphins’ freedom, and spent the last decade rescuing horses from the infernos of Los Angeles.

This isn’t just another feel-good chat. It’s fast, fiery, and full of hard-won truth. What happens when action matters more than philosophy? And what does it take to step up when the world is literally burning?

Buckle up.
