Smallville, thinking back reminds me of better times with my brother and my childhood. My brother's paralyzed today and my gran has alzheimers. Also same story with my dad, never good enough or loved enough. Though I know he did a lot to take care of me, I still hold a lot against him. These kinds of parallels make the show very relatable. Hope to hear more about how you're really trying to overcome or have overcame these hardships. Awesome show mate
I listened earlier and it’s another great episode. This is an episode that is going to really help me, I’m definitely using the tools Rainn mentioned and I’m definitely going to try his podcast. Thanks Michael and Ryan!
Wow, Rosey is killing it with the guests lately. Rainn's always a great podcast guest. Love it when he has people back, especially guys like Rainn who are just really interesting and thoughtful people.
Wow... this is deep. My father went through lots of dramas and tragedies in his life. My mother came from a very happy family. So when she got with my father, she didn't know that rollercoaster she was getting on. But my father, well, he tries very hard. He tries very hard for my mother and for us. My mother told me a lot of his experience over time and I can't be mad at him. He hates sports but he went to my games. He hated talking to people and yet, he went to my teachers meetings, talked to my coaches and so on. No matter what happened in his past, he wanted things better for my life, for the life of my brother and for the life of my mother. My brother and I gave him a brand new truck for his 72 birthday. He looks at us with a smile and said, " I wanted it in blue." lol So we went back and got it in blue. lol I know I am blessed.

Hello, Mr Rosenbaum, Im a huge fan and there’s something Id like to tell you- as in fan mail. But I couldn’t find an email address for that, is there one you could give me?
This is a really interesting podcast until they start talking about religion which they clearly know zero about. Trying to speak for atheism is pretty insulting because they are ignorant of what it really means.
I love how he says that he's got to do what people do to better themselves in order to be average. I'm exacly the same. Some days I get really angry about that, but it is what it is. Thanks for the cast and kudos from Brazil.
Don’t worry friend you’re not alone. Sometimes it’s a huge victory for me to stay silent and not erupt in anger. Even though that is a small victory it is still a victory to feel normal again. Keep fighting the good fight friend and remember you’re not alone.
This episode was a true delight. Rainn definitely opens up and he is such an insightful person. His statement that your truth don’t define you is so true. A part 3 would be great.
Honestly going through some very deep depression and anxiety lately, this definitely is nice hearing from others speak on it so freely growing up the way I did talking about this stuff wasn't a thing.
Never been a fan of The Office, but Rainn seems like an all around good guy. Going to enjoy watching this while drinking my first cup of coffee. Wishing everyone a wonderful week and Happiest Thanksgiving to those who celebrate 😁. I know how thankful I am for this podcast 🙏🏻.
I adore this channel! Michael Rosembaum is so amazing, such a good host and always respectful of his guests. Keep making such quality content. I had no clue Rainn Wilson voiced Lex Luthor, two amazing Lex Luthors in one room! God bless.
Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. ARE YOU NOT OF MORE VALUE THAN THEY?? And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?
The argument against god stating 'Why is there death and destruction?' 'God wouldn't do that'.. Tell me how many video games, movies, TV Shows and books do we have where absolutely no drama happens? There's bound to be some but they aren't known because they' boring as heck. No the only interesting media we create has drama, it has loss, destruction, hurt. This world we live in was made by someone else, I believe that. It wasn't designed to be perfect, it was designed to be entertaining. Our creator loves us the same way a game developer loves their game and the characters they create.
My Dad is similar and so am I, I'll bottle things up and I have emotional inhibition, I don't tell any family I love them even if they say it, I don't hug anyone, I kind of just keep closed off, it's not that I don't love family and friends it's just that I deal with things by going numb and shoving everything down and I can't turn it on and off so I just stay standoffish.
Wow, I'm so sad for Rainn. I lost my mother nearly 7 years ago and it's brutal. And he has lost so many people this year Rosey, also very sorry for your losses. I adore your podcast. You're a terrific interviewer and a fantastic actor.
Still processing loss of my dad, almost 3 yrs now. Hurts that I can’t talk to him, I still have so many questions. My dad had a full life and was sick at the end, so I kind of accept better now almost three years later even tho when I got the news I literally collapsed on the floor crying.
Really enjoyed the last time you had Rainn Wilson on the podcast. Looking forward to what conversations you guys will have this time. I watched the Shit Talkin’ portion last night. I loved the DnD reference he made there. Hope you have an amazing week! Keep up the awesome work!! Thank you for the incredible Sun Spin show this past Saturday!! Can’t wait until the Christmas shows next month ❤️ Love you Michael ❤️ Happy Tuesday ^_^
I almost didn't watch it but was told to skip the 1st season and was able to get into it and then go back..so glad I gave it a second chance..so many great moments
"Hesher" is an incredibly underrated dark comedy gem that more people need to see. I'd love to hear Rainn talk about it in depth sometime. It really does connect with and share similar themes that he seems to discuss on his podcast. Loneliness and isolation, depression and grief, the crucial importance of acceptance and self awareness, letting the strange and unfamiliar in as a potential unforeseen catalyst for necessary change and transcendence . . . . Joseph G. Levitt is phenomenal in this film, as is the entire cast. Everyone should watch HESHER again at some point.
Wow - if anyone in my family ever had a deep and meaningful with me or eachother, we'd all just assume they'd just been given 2 weeks to live. We all love eachother but we NEVER say it. Do people do that? Are we weird? Oooor just British 😆
Take it from the folks who don't have their father anymore, go talk with him, and if he's kool with it, try therapy with your dad. 👊 If nothing comes from it, you will have at least tried..
Phone Auto-Correct Edit: I wish there was someone in my life I could have a conversation with in regards to my eating disorder. At least it's inspiring me to maybe look out for someone in the future. Thank you for the podcast.
Very good talk. I used to be lost when someone would ask me about what religion I was and would notice my ma-aunt wouldn't and my fam would rely on her to be our spiritual guide. When she crossed over I opened my eyes and heart and realized I was Spiritual not religious which helped a ton in accepting people and pets crossing over. Knowing that our physical bodies are not immortal unlike our souls which are forever makes me appreciate everything more and knowing our loved ones are never really gone. I really feel the purpose of life is to grow as people , like to be kinder ,help, take care of others and ourselves etc.. and not to over think everything , just grow and be kinder :) One doesn't need to listen to other's spiritual opinions , have yours and be happy with that. With pain there is growth and it's all a test on how we deal with it.
Why is there suffering if there's a god? Simple, it's called free will. He isn't out to get you with afflictions. Life is random and shit happens. Love him or don't love him. God doesn't want a planet full of robots who are forced to love him. That's your choice.
16:30 that’s my mum Treats me different to my sister Never asked how I am Never said she’s loves me Never said she’s proud Thank gawd I have a loving dad 😮
For anyone who needs to try it or feels the drive to meditate please RU-vid Shivrasa her breathwork is outstanding. Also Heart Brain Coherence meditation and sound therapy are beautiful.
Maybe you could videotape your therapy and if something comes up that is an opportunity for him to better understand your perspective on the relationship you could share a short clip of it with him? I suppose the biggest problem would be he knows that you're an actor so how could he not question the candor. But...maybe?
I have ALWAYS thought about how add it is that certain sounds mixed together to a specific rhythm, called music, pleases us so much. It is indeed strange how sounds can entertain us and even turn our mood around and inspire us.
Dwight is one of my all time fav characters. So much laughter you've brought me and to see your wisdom n humbleness Rainn...awesome! Congrats on doing the 12 steps and all you've overcome.!
I like Rainn's way of thinking. It is outside the box and very different to mine which gave me a completely flipped view point on things. Normally when I watch the pod cast it is stuff that I would do and would agree with right away. He gave me a completely different outlook. After watching a few of these, I'm sort of thinking that maybe therapists are like people who pretend to be mediums. Where they're people readers and say things that resonates the client but vague enough that you keep paying for more, like a medium who says "Do you know someone called Rose? Who has a creaky bathroom door? Who was the person who had the train set?" some people have an immediate connection with that (where I live they always say "who lived in Canning Town?" and I think, here we go 🙄). It's good that therapists can help you understand yourself more but then what? You know why you do things now, ultimately it is up to yourself to work out a change in pattern and these people aren't going to tell you properly or entirely give you what you need because they need your money and they don't care about the client personally. If you're paying (and it ain't cheap either) year on year for therapy, then it can't be working or you now have the tools you need but they tell you a different version of the things you know already and dress it up as new information... ...Says the person who doesn't take her own advice but sees the answer for other people 😉😁. Anyway, that's what I think and other people don't have to agree with me because we are all individuals. Purpose for me is to help others by being at the right place at the right time. For example, if I hadn't left home at 12:30, I wouldn't have seen that Rasta and gave him directions yesterday. If I hadn't been at the train station at a particular time than I couldn't have helped when the old lady fell down. So I believe all of our purpose is to be at the right place at the right time to help others and to be helped because when you are helped the person who helped you (yes yes I am aware that I am saying the word too much) also, feels happy or whatever scientific boost it is called. So you're both getting something out of it
Eckhart Tolle, Wim Hof, Bruce Lipton, Gregg Bredan and Joe Dispenza are the BEST people who make it easier to get out of your own head and more connected to the universe.
Michael, you seem extremely focused, present, active and clear minded on every podcast. As a person who is also dealing with anxiety, I would like to know how much effort you are putting into being like this? Or in your case anxiety powers you rather then drains you? I’m asking because most of the time I feel cloudy, tired and sometimes out of it - anxiety sucks the life out of me. Have you also experienced the thing I’m talking about or have you always been energetic but anxious? Thanks! Roman
