Rob Morgan Is A Curious Person

“The seeking of one thing will always find another. And the single greatest phrase separating Artistic Heathens from Hierophants is, ‘Why does this even matter? Nobody’s going to notice besides me.’“ See the photo examples I talk about here 👇🏻 www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/unrequestedobsessions ※    -  The Map Of Recording Locations: www.thecuriouspod.com/map - The Podcast Hotline:  (612) 584-...

How Kurt Vonnegut, Conan Obrien, Shakespeare, and Stephen Colbert reminded me that I don’t not know enough about life to know what the good news is, and the bad news is. Ever since, I’ve calmed the hell down.  www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/whatyouwant   ※    -  The Map Of Recording Locations: www.thecuriouspod.com/map - The Podcast Hotline:  (612) 584-9330 - Thank you to Wild Pony for the theme...

A chance encounter with Scott Renteria (of SUMMIT BREWING Co.) changes the way I think about NA Beer, and gets me thinking about the importance of being in tune with our taste as creators. 📍 Surdyk's Liquor & Cheese Shop www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/summitandtaste   ※    -  The Map Of Recording Locations: www.thecuriouspod.com/map - The Podcast Hotline:  (612) 584-9330 - Thank you to Wild...

“I apologize for such a long letter - I didn't have time to write a short one.” ― Mark Twain “I apologize for such a long podcast - I didn’t have time to record a short one.” ― Rob Morgan www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/catechismofconciseness

John Morley once said, “The great business of life is to be, to do, to do without, and to depart.” Today on the podcast, I ambush Sarah in the bathroom as she's getting ready, and we discuss what happens when we find ourselves in a period of "to do without." Specifically, when one doesn't naturally feel curious about life.  www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/thegreatbusinessoflife

Sarah and I were watching the new Harrison Ford doc on Disney+ last night called "Timeless Heros" when something sparked my curiosity... www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/fansvscustomers

Sure... I've been guilty of it plenty of times... my head stuck so far up my technical skills that I forget what I was trying to express in the first place. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/craftblindness

Seriously… this may sound like crap, but I probably wouldn’t have been music director for Owl City if it weren’t for what I learned from the actors on this show. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/breakingbadcareer

I’m just getting over a month of some of the worst back pain of my life. It almost put me in the ER and I almost had to cancel a tour because of it. Naturally… I looked for advice. Unfortunately… most of it sucked. And that fact taught me a ton about the way the creative process works. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/mostadvicesucks

My friend was given a crappy cocktail, and it could have been solved with more questions. I'm annoyed, and I don't have time to dry off. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/fromtheshower

“What are my 5 to 10-year goals?” Those kind of questions have never resonated with me. But, “Who am I?” and “What do I want?”… those… those seem like they serve me a bit better at the top of the year. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/whatdoyouwant

How badass would it be if we allowed 2024 to give us permission to say, “This is who I am, this is what I like, and that’s ok.” www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/2024permission

Nostalgia is my drug of choice, and New Year's Resolutions often fuel my anxiety about the future. It’s all too much. It’s all too big. Maybe simply giving grace for the now is all I can resolve for.  www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/nownewyears

At the end of the day, most of the crap just doesn’t matter. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/noprizes

Do you consider yourself a traveler? Forget “Yes” or “No.” What I’m really curious about is what comes to mind when I ask you that question. Maybe you picture yourself boarding a plane with your passport in your pocket. I’ve been obsessed with asking my music friends that same question this past month, and a gig this past weekend in Minnesota’s Iron Range reminded me of a quote I once heard, “Some...

Just a quick podcast to talk about how sick of talking about it I am. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/stoptalking

"Eager" and "enthusiastic" are two words I could use to describe my younger self in multiple aspects of my life. The problem is that those often get perceived externally as "desperate." Here's how I learned not to give a shit. (or at least calm down and appear like I didn't."  www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/stopgivingashit

For years... I misunderstood what real manifestation looks like. Turns out, it's far more blue-collar than I thought... www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/bluecollarmanifestation

A greenroom conversation with my buddy Steve Bosmans in Columbus, Georgia reminds me of how I defined 'Success' for years... It turns out it was extremely unhelpful. 📍Columbus, GA www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/successcansuckit

I once heard a comedian say, “Writing a set is similar to building a playground.” The writing and prep, that’s where the real work happens. Once you walk on stage, your only job is to embrace the play and have as much fun as possible.  It changed the way I view my job as a bassist and music director but last night, eating at one of my favorite restaurants (Tenant) with Sarah, I realized it might n...

When I'm developing film, I don't get pissed at it for taking longer than I thought. You don't look at a flower that hasn't opened and get frustrated at the amount of time it's taking to bloom... Why the hell do that then to ourselves and our creative journey? Be gentle with yourself my friends, if your evolution is taking longer than you thought. www.thecuriouspod.com/questions/begentle   #filmph...
