A Note from Laura Chandler
I want to take a moment to thank all of our generous supporters and volunteers who help make the Sacred Stream Radio Podcast possible. I began this podcast as a labor of love and to share the stories of the remarkable, talented, famous and not-so-famous people I have the great privilege of meeting and engaging with as a result of my work in the world. These are people I am moved by and who inspire me and I hope that they move and inspire you, too.

Podcast: Episode 148: Remembering Robert Thurman: Part 4: Not the End
October 27, 2026
In the final episode of this series, Laura Chandler sits down with Isa Gucciardi, founding director of the Sacred Stream, to reflect on the life and legacy of their dear friend Robert Thurman, and the impact he had on them personally and on so many others. They also share reflections from their longtime friend Thupten Jinpa, who offers his thoughts on Bob’s remarkable life and death.
Bob dedicated his life to His Holiness the Dalai Lama and to the Tibetan people, whose long exile from their homeland remained an enduring cause close to his heart. His commitment extended beyond advocacy and scholarship to the living practice of wisdom, love, and compassion. Through his teaching, writing, humor, and deep devotion to the Buddhist tradition, he helped bring Tibetan Buddhism to a wider audience and inspired countless people to engage more deeply with its teachings.
In this conversation, Laura and Isa remember Bob not only for his extraordinary contributions, but also for the personal connections, shared experiences, and moments of insight that made him so beloved. They reflect on what it meant to be with his community in the days surrounding his passing, and on how his life and teachings continue to resonate. May his legacy continue to inspire us to meet the world with greater understanding and compassion.
