Jay Shetty & Michael Karlberg: Humanity's Collective Coming of Age

In this special double episode, the gang tackles a big question: could the turbulence and chaos in our world be signs that humanity is collectively coming of age? To help them answer, they've recruited Jay Shetty, award-winning podcast host of On Purpose and New York Times bestselling author, and Michael Karlberg, a professor at Western Washington University whose work reconceptualizes human nature, power, social organization, and social change in the pursuit of peace and justice. Simply put, Michael helps make sense of our world, and Jay helps make sense of our place in it.

Jesse Metcalfe

Jesse Metcalfe comes on Podcrushed and opens up about being bullied for being “too pretty,” carrying a chip on his shoulder into Hollywood, and how the peaks and valleys of his incredible career introduced him to spirituality. He revisits John Tucker Must Die with Penn for the first time in decades, including JTMD moments from behind the scenes, and a dinner moment involving edamame that still haunts Penn to this day. There’s soap-opera hell portals, pilot-season pressure cookers, and a brutally honest reckoning with fame and identity. Funny, uncomfortable, and unexpectedly deep — this one's a banger.   David is offering our listeners a special deal: buy 4 cartons and get the 5th free when you go to https://davidprotein.com/PODCRUSHED [https://davidprotein.com/PODCRUSHED]   Right now, new customers can get 15% off sitewide at https://magneticme.com [http://magneticme.com].    🎧 Want more from Podcrushed? * 📸 Instagram [https://bit.ly/PodcrushedInsta] * 🎵 TikTok [https://bit.ly/PodcrushedTikTok] * 🐦 X / Twitter [https://bit.ly/PodcrushedTwitter] ✨ Follow Penn, Sophie & Nava Instagram * Penn [https://www.instagram.com/pennbadgley/] * Sophie [https://www.instagram.com/scribbledbysophie/] * Nava [https://www.instagram.com/nnnava/] TikTok * Penn [https://www.tiktok.com/@iampennbadgley] * Sophie [https://www.tiktok.com/@scribbledbysophie] * Nava [https://www.tiktok.com/@nkavelin]   See omnystudio.com/listener [https://omnystudio.com/listener] for privacy information.
