The differences and similarities. And more. A great and fun conversation. Thanks for coming on Jakob. #podcast #cometowhereimfrom #jakobdylan #josepharthur

Was a great honor chatting with Chely Wright today for the podcast. Her story is as intense as they come and her openness in discussing its many layers should be an inspiration to us all. I know it is for me. From being the first major country star to come out of the closet both as a lesbian and a Christian. To her near suicide and resurrection as a mother of twins, and a major memoirist. She is a seeker and a force that continues to write poetry, fiction and songs to add onto the string of hits she’s already had in her unique and inspiring career. Thanks for joining us today Chely! Great to meet you. #podcast #cometowhereimfrom #chelywright #josepharthur

Had a very interesting and rewarding conversation with Har Mar Superstar and Sabrina Ellis of the new band Heart Bones on the podcast today. It was Inspired in part by Brene Brown ‘s work about the power of vulnerability and relating it back to making music and performance and keeping our shit together while being on the road. Enlightening and fun. These two are gonna play tonight at Le Poisson Rouge in NYC tonight so if you can.. check em out! And look for this episode of The Come To Where I’m From podcast sometime in early August. #podcast #cometowhereimfrom #harmarsuperstar #sabrinaellis #seantillmann #josepharthur

Rosanna Arquette Is simply a magical being. And she opened up her magical world to us today. What an absolute honor to sit with her and hold space this way and in this context. Podcasting is like therapy. There is something that happens when cameras are rolling and mics are recording. Another spirit enters. Maybe it’s the dimension of eternity. We opened up the podcast about intense subjects. The way society is captured into shame induced comas through the weaponry of porn and that lead into her involvement with the “me too” movement and the evolving dynamics between women and men. And then we went absolutely everywhere else. Of course I asked her about one of my favorite movies ‘After Hours’ and how she used astrology to build characters. It was an amazing conversation. She is a light worker and she brought the light. Sitting in front of an infinite mirror with train tracks going all the way to oblivion. That’s where we took it for 2 plus hours until we just started singing songs. Just like we did in the movie we were in together way back in the day called ‘Hells Kitchen’ Old friends shooting the breeze on a train made of film and zeroes and ones. The west coast has been an explosion for the podcast. We’ve found our stride. You’ll have to wait for this one. But it’s one worth waiting for. Thank you Rosanna! No wonder everybody writes songs about you. #love

Incredible conversation with Ben Lee today for The Come To Where I’m From’ podcast. We went deep into relationships with gurus, psychedelics, being of service or just being, music, working with geniuses, finding common ground in the various ways we’ve escaped situations where we’ve relinquished control and how he finally found what he was looking for. It was unexpectedly intense and I mean that in a good way. Actually I mean it in the best way. Thanks so much Ben for inviting us into your home. Episode slated for end of July but will be worth that wait. #podcast #cometowhereimfrom #benlee #josepharthur

The birth of The Manifestors! Dave Catching was gracious to invite us into Rancho De La Luna (legendary recording studio in Joshua Tree) and let us interview him for ‘The Come To Where I’m From’ podcast. We talked about the magic of the desert and New Orleans and how the universe will nudge you where you need to go. The power of words and music to manifest your reality. We touched on his work with Queens Of The Stone Age, EODM, Masters Of Reality, Earthlings? And more! His Mezcal brand, pedal inventions and over coming tragedy. The magic of these west coast episodes continues. Thanks Dave for being such a cool and generous dude. Can’t wait to make those jams with you.
