#15: Feeling it Still with John Gourley

Portugal. The Man started off as a group of teens playing music in Wasilla, Alaska. Fast forward 21 years, 8 albums, a Grammy Award, and billions of streams later and they are now one of the biggest names in alternative rock today.
In this episode, I connect with the singer, songwriter, and guitarist John Gourley to discuss what life was like growing up in Alaska with his larger than life parents, the creative process behind the music, and how the band is using their success to make an impact in the indigenous community through the PTM foundation.
We also chat about what's next for the band, and how John has learned to embrace his anxiety as a force for good.

#17: Finding Meaning in Life with Will Schoder [Part I]

Will Schoder is only interested in working on "Evergreen Topics." The stated goal being that anyone could stumble upon his work in 10, 20, or even 100 years, and the topic would still be relevant.
For the last few years, his time has been spent addressing one of the most important questions of all: "What is Happiness?"
In Part I of our conversation we discuss what makes irony lame, how to navigate an existential crisis, and why "Re-enchantment is so important."
