Matthew McConaughey On Life, Love, Freedom, And Truth | Aubrey Marcus Podcast

[@BenGebo]

For the last two dozen+ podcasts McConaughey has been on, he has barely repeated himself. A man of wisdom, insight and not taking life too seriously.

[@Chaz.hands.]

Aah, you know I was hesitant to click on this because I have seen him on a few podcasts already, but it's good to know he is full of fresh anecdotes/wisdom!

[@BenGebo]

@@Chaz.hands. True! Everyone has a rich history that we can all learn from. Especially people who have lived multiple lives in one!

[@FrankyDescoteaux]

Agreed. We keep watching him share his story from deeper perspectives. Obviously, it doesn’t hurt to have such a wonderful host.

[@jonathanrazza9299]

It's very refreshing to hear someone from Hollywood who has not completely lost touch.

[@austincagan3258]

Ya I know right it’s funny tho our idea of what’s in touch is another persons idea of what a nut job sounds like its all relative but I do agree 😁

[@eileenschaeffer2646]

[@ethanbabbage4336]

Seen quite a few of these as McConaughey makes the rounds. This one is by far the best. More of a conversation than an "interview." Less talking points, more authentic open ended questions coming from both sides. Just keep living my dudes.

[@lauderdale77]

Feel the same. This one is great

[@officialcalvinwayman]

Agreed. I’ve seen a few of them. There are two that really stand out, and this is one of them. (PS, the second one is the podcast episode he did with Tim Ferriss)

[@everydayshowday5151]

Calvin Wayman - I like his with joe Rojan as well.

[@Dr.EWMatic]

Couldn’t agree more. The only other one I seen was the impact theory one with Tom Bilyeu. This one is so much more tasteful and genuine. Would definitely be interested in another episode of these two great minds.

[@Vshamann336]

10:35 amazing that I just said that at the beginning of this episode and expressed that this is exactly what we need. Marcus, much love. Thank you. Why I come here so often. It's nice to be on the same page as somebody.

[@j.c5078]

I hope you have rethought this in 5 months Holly wood started as Holly wood land. Disney started as Disney land. Heritage USA Dot to dot was how data started Now it is zeros and ones. Real life is not in this castle of digital images. I love my fellow travelers. Matthew is a good egg.

[@streetballa331]

One of the most insightful, high value conversation I’ve heard in a while. Thanks Aubrey

[@Vshamann336]

9:54 We really have to come back at this moment in our world. It's what's necessary...... Because people need the example without watching somebody detach from society their entire life... That it can be brought into society... Part of why I f****** love Matthew so much for doing this..... I got really excited when I saw that he was turning spiritual like he was and talking to some of these guys... It's 100% what our world needs. I was going to say America but it's the world. As everything we're doing in America is rippling around the world... Unfortunately because we are not putting our best foot forward so often right now. So he is absolutely the example we need. Because with him you have no hiding away, you have the flaws which are absolutely necessary. You have his abundance and fame. Showing you that you can be a spiritual person and not have to denounce all material possession. That was a trick guys. It was a good one too apparently... Nor do you have to detach from society to reprogram yourself.. I understand why people do though But yeah. Thank you Matthew. All right, all right all right.😅

[@derlukas5711]

Impressive to hear Matthew talking about the "Interstellar" Scene. I cry EVERY time when I see it. When you are a father (a parent) - that there is nothing more sacred that time with your children. To miss their whole life is a tragedy. Cooper (the guy Matthew plays in the film) missed the youth of his children for a greater good. He had to go to give them a future at all. But the price was to loose the time with them. Powerful scene - highly emotional. Thanks for that! Take care, cheers from Germany

[@marielove3485]

Great comment ‘stop not a stay’ love it

[@lauderdale77]

This is the best podcast I’ve seen in a long time if ever. Feels like I’m listening to of my friends sharing their experiences. Love it.

[@11STANE11]

This one is one of your best. I really REALLY like the combo of you 2 and i really like how respectful dance it was. No interruptions no bullshit just 2 people pointing at the same thing from a different angle it was joy to listen to greenlights was on my reading list but this bumped it up quite a bit Thanks!

[@harryathanasiadis]

Amazing person Matthew is man he is so smart and he lives life to the fullest and writes about the best lessons he has experienced then shares with us to be better ❤️ 😊

[@laurenhoneysett8349]

I’m reading Matthews book to one of my residents at work. It’s so lovely reading a chapter or two each day. And the laughs we are getting are so great! Thanks for writing such a great book.

[@Dr.EWMatic]

Love this idea! If it weren’t for COVID i would find a local home/assisted living place and do the same!

[@adblaze4808]

Honestly, Aubrey is much better at podcasts than Joe Rogan.

[@Tes73792]

Duh. So much profound insights, absolute amazing attitude towards the guests, such respect and friendliness which is so great to listen and see. My impressions of Joe Rogan are not like that to be honest.

[@texaslady1969]

I agree

[@thechold7062]

I mean...after Spotify yeah. Too bad he sold out, but then again I'm sure he did it for his family and his kids future. Can't blame him for that!

[@johncharllirazan3363]

True coz he's now out in youtube

[@Dr.EWMatic]

Was thinking the exact same thing! Can’t hate on Joe at all but man it appears that Aubrey is on to something here!

[@cathyweiss5347]

Great interview! Yes I believe Mr. McConaughey you are catching all the green lights as you pass through this world. This life is a stop not a stay. Our blessing is to see you at work and witness a great man's wisdom.

[@zynark777]

Matt is such a Grey Knight. He touches Chaos but comes back uncorrupted.

[@deinemiesemutter4661]

Best podcast with McConaughey I stumpled upon. Very natural and interesting. :)

[@intentionalevolution3653]

Great podcast, I really liked how comfortable you both were with each other. Alignment. Just a great conversation.

Damn they make em good in Texas! Loved MCs insights on acting and presence met with Aubrey questions about spirituality, I'm as inspired as I was back in drama school! Imagine if all interviews on talk shows were like this instead of the barage of fluff!

[@dilshodsultan6575]

[@normanralph3730]

Incredible episode, one of my favorite podcasts to date. A ton of depth and meaning

[@EjJonelis]

What a beautiful conversation! Love you both, guys ❤️

[@randallmitchell6326]

Aubrey You’ve inspired me in more ways than one. I’ve always had the desire to start a podcast to keep the Inspiration Alive, and I finally did! Thank you again

"I knew it was a stop, not a stay"

[@jennifersmiles]

It's so soothing to hear both of you unfold and share, such groundedness and flow and grace, thank you for your sharing~

[@matthew.fanchatEmailcom]

It's been quite a roller coaster ride, but I've grown and learned a lot about myself. The best thing is being able to interact and touch with the fans Human lives... I'm grateful for that. In return i grant you the privilege to view this channel biography and to follow the instructions for further communication with me. I wish you a nice day.😍🥰

It’s a pleasure to hear you guys

[@bliss314]

Aubrey you are amazing in every aspect! Much love!

[@Dumbpuppet101]

I've been watching as many as I can of McConaugheys podcast features, and man Aubrey I have to say this is the first time I've seen a host really share their OWN experiences, it was as though you were talking to a good friend, and I could see him really listening and for once its so refreshing to see a conversation between two people who hold no "reverence" or "expectations" of one another - this felt like two human beings having a really interesting and awesome discussion on life! I have subbed and I cant wait to hear more from this channel!

[@aimeewhiteford6844]

Good combo. For sure.❤️❤️

[@stewartxp2400]

Who the heck saw Matthew McConaughey becoming a wise elder? He just came out of left field this year, first I saw his face on the thumbnail image for Impact Theory and thought "Hmm, it's Matthew McConaughey.. that's cool." Then Garyvee, then Joe Rogan, Lewis Howes, and I was like "Damn, he's all over the place look at him". And now on here with Aubrey! Super excited. And I have to say he's just as damn interesting and helpful in this podcast as any. Aubrey too, as I've said, has recently hit a new level with his interviewing and discussion abilities, so good at giving examples, providing analogies, describing things and expressing and linking ideas together. 41:31 Quick sidenote, I loved Interstellar and particularly that one scene. Very rarely have I ever cried watching a movie, but got damn that got me good and I basically couldn't hold back the tears at that part.

[@techtech9062]

When i see this video i know it will be good one because made my Aubrey. i think this mcconaughey also thinks that this is best interview so far that he could express himself better. I have watched other youutubers interview him like gary vee. . it was a big waste of time he kept interrupting matthew and asked very shallow questions. Aubrey is becoming my idol lol. Ceo, spiritual guru, no ego, enjoying life, possitive vibe always contributing great value..

[@seamusdebuitleir20]

From the vernacular of the ghetto nice one lads, and great to hear no ego or attention seeking underhanded motives....🔐💚🤝🔑🙏🏻

[@QDdawg44]

Aubrey's Podcast need more views in general.

[@Chaz.hands.]

I normally listen to it on my phone when I'm out walking, so it probably still gets plenty of people listening to it, but I agree, it is good to watch also, so more people should do that!

Ok, so less than 10 minutes in I am googling 'dark retreats'. They sound AMAZING. The internet is wonderful for learning! Already tried the 10 day Vipassana silent retreat, the darkness would be a whole other level!

[@giorgioacccc]

Can you post a link, please? :)

[@Chaz.hands.]

@@giorgioacccc Well I am based in the UK & there are some amazing looking ones in Europe, but I can't leave the UK from Jan 1st, so it might be Thailand... but I read a bad review & it has put me off, so I don't know where to go. Did the Vipassana in Victoria, AU www.dhamma.org/en/schedules/schaloka That was 10 year ago, so it may be different now.

[@giorgioacccc]

@@Chaz.hands. I am familiar with Vipassana, but it was my first time for me hearing about those 'dark retreats' - so I would like to know more about these. :D If anyone could provide me some info, to save me some time googling it.

It stresses me how much people don’t know about cognitive functions 🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️ Aubrey you and McConaughey are both of theocratic temperament, INFJ and ENFJ!!! Go look up introverted intuition you will not regret it!! Theocrats are meant to get to the essential and show it to others!!

[@Vshamann336]

7:12 Really something else when you haven't even taken a substance or anything, and you can't shut what's going on off. And it is not normal for your everyday experience. It adds a whole other layer of intensity. So I can imagine what you're saying about the darkness retreat..... Though I've never done that in particular. I probably will at some point though. But I have heavy experiences without even doing that heavy of a practice. So I kind of get worried that like 6 hours in I'm going to start tripping and then I can't shut it off until I'm done. And I know that when that happens, because of some experiences I've had, it adds a whole other layer of intensity to it.... That might be because I'm used to taking a substance for that to happen, from a young age. So that's just what I'm more comfortable and used to.... But for me when I had a Kundalini experience, and I didn't really know what was going on, it had a major another layer of intensity. Because anytime I've gone through an ego death on a substance. I really still knew that I was okay. But for this, I thought I was having a stroke or something. Cuz I didn't have a clue what was going on as I did not have any practice to have that happen.... Now 3 years later, and it's still going on. And I go to the doctor to make sure that it's not something medical that's wrong... Nope. Just a mystery, at least to the medical community. Not much of a mystery to me... And somehow I actually knew what was going on before I knew anything about Kundalini.... Just intuitionally kind of knew.

[@shannongillespie8966]

What you both talked about at the end (what is lighting a fire for Matthew), keeping Austin the way it is through its growth... keeping an authenticity, opening and inviting each other to be seen in each community of the city, bi-partisan, non-denominational values of ‘we all live here’... let us work together to support each one of our unique selves. Beautiful work gentleman. I am inspired by you both. Thank you. This underlying intension and way of approaching Austin’s growth reminds me of the Maternal Gift Economy. Check it out: www.maternalgifteconomymovement.org. The first 20 minutes or so describe the concept, of which I believe is a part of what you’re referring to in Austin’s growth and concept of community.
