The Rich Roll Podcast

This is the 1,000th episode of the podcast. Insane. To mark it, Julie and I take it back to the start.

We recap the origin story of this show. A creative experiment, born in a yurt on a Kauai mango farm, our family was on the precipice of foreclosure. We get into the crucible that gave birth to everything, and why change stays within everyone's reach.

Fourteen years. A thousand episodes. Grateful for every one of you. Enjoy!

Danny McBride is the writer, actor, and producer behind “Eastbound & Down,” “Vice Principals,” and “The Righteous Gemstones.”

For 30 years, he's satirized the aggrieved modern male, the guy who grew up on Rambo and ended up working at Geico. His first collection of short stories, “Thrilling Tales of Modern Men,” puts it all on the page. We get into masculinity, disappointment, the manosphere, and a world that already feels like the extended McBride universe.

Beneath the comedy, the only real antagonist in these stories is the man himself.

Danny is a master of his craft, and a rare eye on the foibles of the modern American man. Enjoy!

Dr. Kelly Starrett is a physical therapist, New York Times bestselling author, and co-founder of The Ready State.

This conversation explores human performance and a wellness culture that's become a kind of secularized religion, fixated on optimization while the fundamentals get ignored. We discuss the carbohydrate revolution, why the brain chooses safety over performance, the Enhanced Games, the power of play, and much more.

Before the pod, Kelly put me through the paces with a Frisbee, a tennis ball, and a rope – and it reframed how I think about starting over.

Kelly is a grounded source of trust and a force for good. Enjoy!

By 2020, veganism wasn't a fringe choice. It was mainstream. A few years later, the momentum faded. So what happened?

I sit down with nutrition scientist Simon Hill for an honest autopsy – the overhyped meat alternatives, the broken trust around health claims, the sanctimony that turned people off, and how eating plants got tangled up with politics and masculinity. I cop to my own part in it too.

No dogma. No purity tests. Just a reckoning, and a saner way forward. Enjoy.

Ed O'Brien is a member of Radiohead and the artist behind his new solo album "Blue Morpho."

This conversation explores the intersection of creativity and mental health, and the ways transformation so often mirrors the artistic process itself. We get into the prolonged depression that birthed the record, the dark night of the soul, childhood trauma, the surrender that comes with embracing uncertainty, the limits of AI, and much more.

As we talk, we realize his album and my book are circling the very same themes. Call it synchronicity.

Ed is lovely. Enjoy!
