This episode brought tears to my soul. This is the reason why Joe Rogan is the man for information these days. Not once you heard MSM through this last two years talk about mental health and this episode does that and helps you with tools to navigate all sorts of mental struggles one may face in life. This is the reason why I will never go back to MSM again in my life. Listening to her is the health option and information people need today and not even ONCE was promoted from any MSM with the level of care , purity and genuine emotions and debate. Thanks Joe Rogan for this one and thank you jewel you really are the now not so hidden jewel amongst the crap I see in this planet.

@Roy Whorshtz Yes, mutual agreement. They both(Ty and herself)even spoke on them splitting up, and why. It's a normal thing. My ex-wife and I did the same thing. You act like people can't get divorced, but still communicate and the children can live with both parents?? Not only have they both spoke about them splitting up. They both speak about how they communicate, and co-parent. So how is their little boy fatherless, and how was their divorce not mutual...when you can hear them actually say what I said? Grow up? Wow, how passive aggressive of you. You can't see past your own inner hatred for what happened to you, you actually believe every divorce is like yours. If you say you're not divorced...then you're speaking from a place of ignorance and this whole conversation was a complete waste of my time.

[@joeschmo247]

@Roy Whorshtz Wait, so you're doing the exact same thing? You assume that their son isn't "alrright". All I know is the son isn't fatherless, and they mutually agreed to get a divorce. Which those were your original points, which is coming from their mouths. So what you said about their son being fatherless, and Jewel leaving her husband, is untrue...period. Also, "broken homes" don't communicate and co-parent. Broken homes are dysfunctional and damaging. From what I've read and heard both them say about one another, it doesn't sound like a "broken home". Now as to them no longer being married, does that possibly affect their child, possibly. But until you ask the child, you and I will never know. But keep assuming since you went through some horrible shit??🤔

It's very easy to slap an Instagram feel-good, tough-ish Rocky Balboa/Tony Robbins quotes but those people who are suffering it is INEPT and GLIB. It takes more courage to feel the pain of others, extend hand of empathy and console a grieving person that say: "Oh tuff ish...get over it. What are you gonna do now now that your father is dead as a rock?" Love her music, but first time I realized how jaded I was to be star-struck. Be your own celebrity. Worship yourself. Instead of looking up to the elite.... I have few more celebs whom I idolize (like Eminem...lol) but this does it. These people are no different from the rest of us. Only us sheep who put them on pedestal with our money and tickets thinking THEY have talent and US don't.

I heard this podcast was amazing years ago but still wasn't prepared for how compelling the story was. It is begging to be turned into Oscar bait. She is such a good storyteller and getting a behind the scenes view of the music industry as grunge was blowing up in the 90s was so fascinating. She is so emotionally intelligent. Most people would have cracked under that pressure and then to do it all over again after that quick rise to fame is insane. Had no idea this was her life when she blew up on the radio in the 90s. And she is still so unbelievably talented with that amazing performance at the end. Will never hear those songs the same again. 4 hours went by so fast.

I too have been homeless and it basically strips away the steps we are taught and makes us think of things from a different perspective. Because when you're homeless, you don't have anything that's really tangible except for your intellegence and talent. So to try to build a life starting off in debt to someone, is a definite no unless you want to be owned and still face the risk of a falling out before the loan is paid back. So the risk of it is just too great no matter how badly we may want a particular change that will give us the break we so desperately need.

[@__eee__]

Unexpectedly one of the best podcasts ever done by Joe. My favorite moment was Jewel making a fair criticism to the Me Too movement (she said women had the choice to say no like she did). Then Joe, rather than going for the low hanging fruit, he goes the other direction and argues in favor of some aspects of the Me Too, making a good point about Hollywood. It was beautiful seeing a successful woman acknowledging some women use sex to advance in their careers and a successful man going on a rant against men who abuse power. That stuff makes more for gender relations than cringy slogans and male feminism. You see two adults acknowledging their own team has fuxxed up.
