Summary

This is one of my all time favorite conversations. In person, on a podcast, anywhere, period. Rarely do I meet someone who similarly embodies the full throttle expression of our human birthright. Someone who has found spiritual resonance with a mountain lion during a peyote ceremony. Been arrested, naked, for playing his bongo drum at the tail end of a hedonistic bender. All the while being one of the most dedicated actors and inspirational speakers of our time.

Matthew McConaughey has been a guest on a lot of podcasts since his #1 bestselling book Green Lights, but having listened to all of them, I promise that this is a much different conversation than you will hear anywhere else. McConaughey is a man that I admire, not just for his work, but for his character. And if you are a fan of his work, you’ll hear some stories about his preparation and performance for movies like Interstellar that will blow your mind. I can’t wait to share this epic podcast that touches mindset, spiritual growth, philosophy, and poetry. But more importantly, I’m just excited to let you in on a conversation amongst two men who share a cavalier smile and a lot of laughs.

0:00.0	Like many of you, I've been a fan of Matthew McConaughey's work for a long time.
0:04.4	All the way back to the Days in Confused Days, and of course, my favorite movie of his
0:09.2	Interstellar, which he tells an incredible story on this podcast about. But I didn't really understand
0:16.9	how much I really appreciated Matthew McConaughey the man until I read his new book, Green Lights.
0:24.0	So this podcast is one of my favorite podcasts I've ever done, and I can't wait to share it with
0:29.5	you guys. Our sponsors for this week are Tushy, my favorite but washing Tushy Bade,
0:36.9	hello Tushy.com slash AMP, Lakonto Monk Fruit Sweetener, Lakonto.com, promo code AMP,
0:44.4	and of course, on it.com slash Aubrey for 10% off all the time for your human optimization needs.
0:52.4	One of the really incredible things about Matthew McConaughey is that he's a person who seeks
0:57.2	balance not by staying in a narrow band just doing the simple routine every day. He'll go far out
1:05.2	on the extremes. And that's something that I aspire to myself, whether that's spending a few weeks
1:11.2	in a spiritual diet on the top of a mountain or for Matthew McConaughey. Maybe that was floating
1:16.8	down the Amazon River or going to the Dagon tribe in Africa. And at the same time enjoying the
1:24.2	carnal pleasures of being a human being. And he's not afraid of either of those. So we talk about
1:30.4	all of the lessons from his life and just have a great time. I was sipping on a little whiskey
1:36.3	and joy in a conversation with someone that I admire, not only his professional work,
1:41.0	but also the human being that he embodies. So I can't wait to share this podcast with you guys.
1:47.0	Before we get started, a word from our sponsors. Our first sponsor is Hello Tushy. Now you've
1:54.0	heard me talk about it. And it's something that literally like this makes the biggest difference
2:00.0	for me. When I go to somebody else's house to go to the bathroom, it's not that I'm like shy
2:04.5	about pooping in someone's house. I will totally poop in your house like I am not afraid of that.
2:09.1	But it's just the hassle of not having my Tushy and then having to go wipe dry, wipe dry, wipe dry.
