A guide to navigating "the rodeo of life".

Academy Award–winning actor and #1 New York Times bestselling author Matthew McConaughey is a husband and a father, an eternal optimist, a hopeful skeptic, and a man of faith who believes that we should all start sellin' Sunday morning like a Saturday night. His latest book is Poems and Prayers.

In this episode we talk about:

• What Matthew's prayer practice looks like
• How to figure out what your beliefs are
• His relationship with doubt and humility
• How to reframe your relationship with failure, risk, and embarrassment
• Morning rituals and how to prepare for the day
• Sins, cynicism, and what to do when things get hard
• Matthew's take on the world
• Misconceptions of 'good' and 'evil'
• The difference between 'hope' and 'belief'
• Why "belief is punk rock"
• And more
