Mike Posner on Walking America, Summiting Everest & Writing Hit Music | Rich Roll Podcast

[@harmonybarry6182]

Mike Posner’s music and poetry have helped me through dark times. His music feels ike therapy.

[@chrisscanlan8819]

I really appreciate how Mike takes a moment to think through his thoughts to convey them. Makes me want to just relax and not rush everything.

[@imonmyway317]

I feel exactly the same. It makes me want to give the same thought to what I say and how I live. He's an inspiration

[@ColtonLoberg]

I think thats why I dislike fake " gurus " so much. Robotic

[@quasimotto2009]

I love that Rich usually gave him the time he needed to truly express himself. He didn’t give him option sentences to use like many journalists do. This is what makes Rich so good to listen to.

[@rubenrichardson5866]

I was very proud and inspired to see Mike go against the grain and chase such seemingly impossible goals. He not only broke my perspective of a music star but of a human and the limits of the human body. I have much appreciation and respect for this man.

[@madsqil19]

I don't normally comment on podcasts, but OMG this was so much fun to listen to. It was just so genuine and real. I couldn't help but feel joy and gratitude for both Mike and you, Rich.

[@risika]

I was listening to a podcast that said, “it’s important to live life by design rather than emotion. Basically, sticking to a routine is what allows us to be the healthiest version of ourselves (especially when you're fighting these demons ex. OCD for me). I’ve had to overhaul how I approach taking care of my brain (journaling) by practising mediocre consistency. Now I try to put in consistent 50-60% effort into my journaling habit, workouts and studying - to make sure I do it I began recording it and posting it on YT. Because historically I have a habit of going too hard, not being able to sustain the Herculean effort, giving up and hating myself. So now I’m trying to give a small, consistent mediocre effort everyday. And its crazy how it adds up. Hearing Mike speak on his life, and where he is now makes me feel like I can feel better too.

[@californialiveevents8950]

You're an inspiration in yourself.. Keep going❤️

[@wrenbisson4760]

Mike is my favorite human on this planet,he has taught me so much.he is wise beyond his years!! What a remarkable person.tgis interview had me in tears!! Sincerely thank you to you both!!

[@DavorZyx]

Best 2 hours 10 minutes and 54 seconds that I spent in a while. Wow, Mike really never disappoints, such a wonderful and inspiring human being.

[@canyonhaverfield2201]

' beginnings hide themselves in ends !' This man is very lovable..An amazing role model ! The US desperately needs millions more Mike Posner's..cause as it is now, healthy true to the bone, rock'in-out,1 bean sprout'n heroes, speaking & living close to their heart, are a diamond in the rough. This man speaks volumes like sweet blackberries oozing from a perfect winter pie ! We see Rich taking baby steps up higher & higher, learning the fine art of inquiry, purpose, & that golden ribbon where one places aside their own line of reasoning in order to give the mike space to the guest.

[@erichopham]

I think that’s his lyric from his song “move on”

[@TheCallahans21]

I love your podcast. My husband and I are truckers, so I spend a lot of time driving and listening to podcasts. This is hands down my favorite so far. Also love the interview with goggins. I just want to thank you for your content. You've also been a huge influence in us becoming plant based, which I can say has changed the outcome of my life. Thank you.

[@kylemockler]

Who’s here who hasn’t seen Posner’s first appearance and is now going back to see the first because this was so good?! Cheers, Rich!

[@joe_a_photo]

This is my favorite. I absolutely loved listening to Mike Posner. It was SUCH a pleasure.

[@reflectionOfLyf]

I followed Mike throughout his journey. He is an inspiration. Mike if you are reading this, I want you to know that u are awesome.

[@gabriel.visita]

What an beautiful conversation! Really love this Channel ♥️

[@richeyrich2203]

So many feels. Loved how it was opened and closed. The last song meant so much more after this conversation. It gave me chills the whole way and really made me think about my own life, or lack there of… I’ve always liked his music, but now I like him more. This was quite motivating.

[@bigpappachungus5273]

Mike is by far one of the most under appreciated humans let alone artist

[@repurposeyou]

Artists like Mike Posner and Jason Mraz give me massive hope for humanity. They are very mature masculine role models. There's not all this ego and trying to force their will on others. Effing amazing interview.

[@BMAGZ8]

All of Mikes interviews makes me like him even more and become even more a fan, such a kind and genuine down to earth guy with so much talent, such an inspiring guy as well.

[@alenearlene3905]

Me too, i cant find anymore interviews, i hope he do more of it..

[@darianbroadhead2863]

His voice will ALWAYS throw me back to his chart toppers that were huge during my college days. Seems like an absolute awesome person.

[@vincentkrause7097]

I've only heard one minute but Mikes Voice instantly calms me down.

[@rbc2042]

Rich. Your interviews are fantastic! Allowing people to settle in and giving them the space to think it out and showcase their genuine self is a true gift!! Really nice job… Didn’t know about Mike Posner until this interview..but his walk~through on how he has transformed is sincere and love the childish enthusiasm ,yet such a mature outlook on his journey about who he is and his identity…

[@will_1536]

Wow inspirational, got such a good energy from Mike

[@kathleenkulp240]

What a beautiful human being! Thank you, Rich, for sharing him with us.

[@chaddavis2992]

I'm so pissed I found out about Mike Posner today, I love this guy! Thank you rich! 💜

[@torwashereee]

This has made the past two hours go by fast. Thankful for being able to listen to this beautiful conversation. Mike- I will forever thank you for allowing me to believe and become who I know I’m meant to be. You are an incredible inspiration

[@CoreenMazzocchi]

The stories from his walk across America wow.. that human connection is what is so needed right now.

[@chimara729]

Humility, gratitude, possibility. Thank you.

[@praslai]

"if I pray for you, what should I pray for?" "pray for my sobriety". That made me tear up...

[@janine9871]

Wow, this is the best I have heard in so long. Mike is glowing in this interview, he has found enlightenment that I can only dream to touch. So inspirational. Much love♥️

[@MrMattMcC]

Ok. Im 20 seconds in and I ALREADY KNOW this is gonna be an impactful conversation between two of the most influential people in my life. Keep going.

[@Mookiethedog]

Wow I only knew about Mike because of his earlier appearance. I ended up a huge fan and can’t wait to watch this pod. One of the loveliest humans!

[@dakineprotoss]

[@liamkelly6098]

This might be his best guest. Just total truth.

[@tkrpclips8363]

Mikes a real deep dude but definitely a positive figure, we need more of that. Thankful for this podcast thanks always Rich!!!

[@melomanacejr]

Mike is an inspiration to this old man. speaks to the power of his soul.

[@ssoundwaves]

I hope to one day be in a peaceful place within myself that allows me to smile as much as this guy. It's truly inspiring.

[@Ooooopppsss]

It's awesome to see the channel unfold.

[@BigRudolph69]

[@trailrunningexperience496]

[@daveprice3095]

2:40 reminds of Shannon Hoon from blind melon - I wonder if Shannon is one of his favorite musicians - wish Shannon was still around to share beautiful music with the world - we need it now more than ever

[@saravandenheuvel9103]

A beautiful, heartfelt interview 💖. Your conversation was so special. Thank you Mike 🙏🏻. Thank you Rich 🙏🏻

[@steviurben1425]

Incredible interview! Off to explore Mike’s music…

[@theaccidentalvegan5919]

So much respect for Mike! Two of my favourite people in one podcast🙏🤩 Thank you Rich!

[@emilybarry9410]

This was such a JOY to listen to! I’m a HUGE fan of you both, and Mike’s music is incredible! His last album I seriously listened to on repeat for like a week. His outlook on life is beautiful and his journey inspiring. Thanks for having him back on the show💜🤗

[@reflectionOfLyf]

That smile and attitude is contagious 😊

[@TechOutAdam]

I swear I need Rich to come out with a styling and how to dress course. Dude you always killing it!

[@jlkimmel]

So beautiful- a True inspiration delivery and a gift - thank you deeply

[@kaseybowen]

I balled my eyes out for the first 50 mins of this video. I feel you Mike. I really do.

[@zezty4295]

What a great way to start the week.thanks guys.

[@wephotogal]

Mike Posner speaks how he lives his life, with intention. Thank you for sharing this part of you. I have dreams, too, that I intend to make real.

[@iolanisjourney4828]

Wow that story about when Mike was on his walk and that young man came to support him and give blessings to keep him safe and Mike then finds out that, that young man had lost his entire family to alcohol and he is on a journey of staying sober. That was deep! A reminder of how beautiful humanity is 💕 The same thing that Ram Dass did for Mike is what Mike is doing for all of us. You can see he has done the inner work, is comfortable in his own skin and his light shines bright. It reminds us that we can do the same.

[@konstantin_na_kavkaze]

Faaaantastic interview! And right before New Year! Happy Holidays everyone!🥳🥳🥳

[@johnbreen66]

Instant Posner fan. Actually listened to it on my morning run then watched it on here an hour later.

[@Sandaufderbank]

You both are incredible human beings. Thanks for teaching me through this why I am embarking on my row across the Atlantic next year. It's to be able to arrive in Antigua as a better person, one that can help improve other peoples lives through sharing.

[@kellymceachern4538]

[@SSSyndrome214]

Thank you for all that you do, Rich! Is there anywhere someone can purchase your film "Down Dog"? I saw it years ago and it was so funny. I'd love to share it with my yoga-enthusiast friends, but all viable links to it seem to have disappeared from the internet. Any pointers would be appreciated. Take care!
