  • 2025 #055 - Abby Lee Miller LOVES Long John Silver’s

    Pat & JT recap a wild Derby weekend that included a sold-out live show with Dance Moms icon Abby Lee Miller—who insisted on Long John Silver’s for lunch (LOVE), dropped meet-and-greet pose rules, and had fans screaming like it was 2011. JT defends Larry Birkhead’s sweet Derby tradition with Anna Nicole’s daughter, while TikToker Griffin brings horse racing to Gen Z. Also: a Cirque du Soleil breakout star from Lincoln, Abby’s savage Bravo regrets, and a surprise Cinco de Mayo shoutout to Amigos.

    Follow the show: On Purpose with Jay Shetty

    Have you ever been seen in a way that didn’t feel true to who you are?

    Who do you feel truly sees you for who you are?

    Today, Jay sits down once again with the incredible Khloé Kardashian to talk about growth, healing, and what it really means to evolve on your own terms. It’s been six years since Khloé first sat down with Jay, and a lot has changed. Now in her 40s, Khloé reflects on the defining moments of her 30s, the clarity she’s found in this new chapter, and how her journey has shaped the woman she is today

    In this honest and heartfelt conversation, Khloé opens up about what it really took to move through heartbreak, public judgment, and her own self-doubt. She shares how she learned to forgive herself, let go of shame, and step into a deeper sense of self-awareness. Khloé talks about navigating the pressures around motherhood, relationships, and success — and how therapy, journaling, and her unwavering faith helped her rediscover her worth and inner peace.

    Jay and Khloé also dive into what it looks like to slow down, make room for solitude, and intentionally choose joy. She offers a glimpse into her daily routines, the spiritual practices that ground her, and how she’s creating a loving, mindful environment for her children, one rooted not in perfection, but in presence and authenticity.

    In this interview, you'll learn:

    How to Set Emotional Boundaries Without Losing Your Kindness

    How to Forgive Yourself and Heal from Past Mistakes

    How to Use Solitude as a Tool for Self-Discovery

    How to Stop Comparing Your Journey to Others

    How to Build Emotional Resilience After Betrayal

    How to Raise Emotionally Aware and Grounded Children

    How to Find Peace Through Faith and Daily Rituals

    Through her candid storytelling and unwavering humility, Khloé offers hope, wisdom, and an empowering message of self-acceptance to anyone navigating their own inner transformation.

    With Love and Gratitude,

    Jay Shetty

    "After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal about Life and Beyond" by Dr. Bruce Greyson

    https://books.apple.com/us/book/after/id1521273820


    This episode of The Oprah Podcast features Dr. Bruce Greyson, one of the world's leading experts on near death experiences. As a scientist and physician, Dr. Greyson has been studying these fascinating phenomena for decades. He and Oprah dive deep into near death encounters and speak with people who have undergone their own transformative episodes, including Oscar nominated actor Jeremy Renner, who described his event as harrowing but also exhilaratingly peaceful. Their stories reveal striking similarities and shed light on how facing death transformed their understanding of not only life, but what comes after. Most people come away from a near death experience with an expanded view of consciousness and consider the possibility that death might not be the end. As Dr. Greyson explains, this “knowing” has caused people around the world to reexamine their own life's journey and view death as nothing to fear.

    Follow the show: Math & Magic: Stories from the Frontiers of Marketing with Bob Pittman

    Ron Howard is an Academy Award, Golden Globe, Emmy, and Grammy award-winning film director. With work spanning from comedies like Splash and Parenthood to critically acclaimed dramas like Apollo 13, Frost/Nixon and A Beautiful Mind, he is one of the most popular and prolific filmmakers of the last 50 years. His first on-screen appearance was at just 18 months old and he was cast as Opie on The Andy Griffith Show at age five. By the time he was 10, adults on set predicted he would make a great director; but at the time, it was a major challenge to transition from acting to directing feature films. In his conversation with Bob, Ron shares how he leveraged one green light to make that improbable jump, how his feelings about collaboration have changed over his career, and his advice for young people in the entertainment industry today.
