Psychologist Angela Duckworth, author of Grit, joins Rainn Wilson to rethink what grit really means: consistent effort, feedback, and goals, supported by the right people and circumstances. They explore why environment shapes behavior, how Alcoholics Anonymous creates a powerful community for change, what learned helplessness can teach us about agency, and whether spiritual intelligence can be developed.

Hunter Biden joins Rainn Wilson on Soul Boom for a deeply personal conversation about addiction, recovery, trauma, grief, spirituality, Joe Biden, the infamous Hunter Biden laptop, cryptocurrency, American politics, Donald Trump, faith, shame, and what it means to rebuild your life after your darkest moments become public.
Hunter opens up about his struggles with alcohol and crack cocaine addiction, getting sober, the childhood car accident that killed his mother and sister, losing his brother Beau Biden, and how trauma shaped his understanding of addiction. He explains why he believes drugs and alcohol initially “worked” for him before becoming what he calls his “prison and executioner,” and why honesty, service, art, the 12 Steps, and spirituality became central to his recovery.
Rainn and Hunter also discuss the extraordinary public exposure of Hunter’s private life following the release of his laptop, his relationship with his father President Joe Biden, privilege and political power, the controversy surrounding Hunter’s $LAPTOP cryptocurrency project, media polarization, Donald Trump, AI, America’s political divisions, and whether the country can rediscover a sense of common humanity.
The conversation ultimately moves beyond politics into Hunter’s spiritual worldview: his Catholic upbringing, the Bhagavad Gita, the Serenity Prayer, his belief that “God is love,” and his definition of the soul as the connection that binds us to one another.
This is Hunter Biden beyond the headlines: a conversation about addiction, family, shame, grief, accountability, recovery, spirituality, and what remains when the ego is stripped away.
