Episode 100.jpg

Today's episode is a special one that I've been honestly planning for quite some time. We've now reached well, frankly, over a hundred episodes of Feeding Curiosity. And. Instead of doing the typical. Interviewing Q and a or something like that. That didn't feel like it captured the spirit of what Feeding Curiosity has been for me and what it has evolved into over the last two years.

And the last a hundred plus episodes. What I thought would be more interesting and more fulfilling would be to pull in the people behind the scenes or the most frequent guests that have been here since day one.  I had with each of the main people who helped shape what Feeding Curiosity is becoming and evolving into. We pull back the curtain and evaluate or reflect on the past present and future of Feeding Curiosity.

To all the guests and listeners of the podcast: This wouldn't be what it is without each of you. I'm blown away by the response I receive and encouragement from those who come on the show.

It's incredibly rewarding to connect with curious people and to resonate with what we believe about human nature and leading a more fulfilling life.  So once again, thank you all for joining me on the journey that is Feeding Curiosity.

Joey and Drew on Few Will Hunt
Joey and Drew on Few Will Hunt

"Everybody wants to eat, but Few Will Hunt."

Today on the podcast with Joey Bowen and Drew Beech, co-founders of the apparel brand and community Few Will Hunt.

Joey and Drew spent their daily commutes through the gritty streets of Philadelphia on the phone for a year straight.

On these calls, they talked about business and life — especially the trends of self-entitlement and shortcut-seeking they witnessed in society.

These trends made them feel alone in an ever-softening world. “Are we the only ones that still believe in the power of hard work?” Drew asked. Joey responded, “It’s like we say at my hunting cabin — everybody wants to eat, but few will hunt.”

This statement perfectly summed up their frustrations with society. It became their mantra.

Jordan Criss on Fulfillment, Imposter Syndrome, Procrastination and Eulogy Virtues
Jordan Criss on Fulfillment, Imposter Syndrome, Procrastination and Eulogy Virtues

On this podcast episode, Jordan Criss returns for a long-overdue discussion on Life and Fulfillment. We start the conversation with the idea that most people are actively disengaged with what they spend most of their time. From there, we cover imposter syndrome, healthy habits, procrastination, and focusing on what matters most to you regardless of the current outcome. Life is about playing a long game. Toward the end of the conversation, I was reminded of a book called The Road to Character. One of the core messages is to think more deeply about the eulogy virtues than resume virtues since modern life is more focused on the latter. In the end, each of us has to figure out what fits best for our life; no matter what, it will be a process. The faster you embrace the process, the less painful it will be. So with that, I pass this off to the listener. What else can we explore if you've encountered the mentioned sources, your own experiences, or any other related ideas?
