"Come To Where I'm From" is the second series of Podcast made by Joseph Arthur, after "Nothing To Talk About" in 2014.

Joseph made a first announcement on twitter on 2019-05-19 :

"New podcast in the works. Calling it “Come To Where I’m From” mainly we will discuss the shape of the earth and no fap. Probably music and how to rebuild yourself when it all goes horribly wrong. Plus laughs. Many many laughs. Kleem. Shreem brzee. We’ll talk about whatever. Loose"

COME TO WHERE I'M FROM: THE JOSEPH ARTHUR PODCAST PLAYLIST

< >

Review :

By Whitney Matheson

3 Recs from ... musician/artist JOSEPH ARTHUR!

Joseph Arthur is an insanely talented singer/songwriter and visual artist who, if you ask me, turns all he touches into magic. This week Joe launched a podcast, COME TO WHERE I'M FROM, in which he interviews fellow creative spirits like Jesse Malin, Craig Wedren, Dave Hill and Holly Miranda. (The title mirrors his landmark 2000 album.)

I asked Joe what he's into these days, and he was quick to pass along these recs:

1. Social media. I know -- shocking, huh? I mean, it has the worst rap ever and deservingly so. It’s addictive and a soul stealer. However, at its best, it can save lives. I recently overcame some rather complex trauma and was validated and embraced in many ways just by watching videos on NPD abuse recovery on YouTube, which led me down a rabbit hole of many other healing modalities including fasting, mantras and meditation and (embarrassingly enough) NoFap or, as the ancients called it, brahmacharya. ... Social media, like life, is all about what you choose to focus on, and at its best, it connects us into some kind of cosmic healing tribe. Rock on!

2. Poetry. I believe in it again. In this loud world, poetry can fall by the wayside. But just like with rock 'n' roll, I think it can make a comeback. And I think with poetry we can communicate complex ideas in a way that is palatable even in this culture of outrage. We need to learn to communicate without burying each other just 'cause we disagree. And if we are honest and at all open-minded, most of the time you can weigh two sides of reasonable arguments and see that each side has a point. We are in this together. Let’s start acting like it. Oh wait ... let me get off this soapbox and write a poem about it. Poetry!!

3. Mantras and metacognition. Excellent ways to go beyond your thoughts and to stop identifying yourself as your thoughts. I’m listening to a mantra in my headphones writing this the whole time. Shreem brzee Shreem brzee Shreem brzee (look it up on YouTube). I run with mantras. I wake up with mantras. Hell, I even sleep with mantras. Ho’oponopono is the big boss mantra in my book. It’s an old Hawaiian prayer which goes, "I love you, I’m sorry, please forgive me, thank you." It's about forgiveness and, therefore, self-empowerment. It’s about taking responsibility for everything within your field of consciousness so that you may live from inspiration rather than memory, so that you may manifest a world of your dreams rather than re-manifesting a painful and disappointing past. Mantras are the new punk rock. My friend Helium G taught me all about them. He sometimes posts clips over on my Instagram. Peace and love!!

Peace and love back atcha, Joe! Check out COME TO WHERE I'M FROM via YouTube, iTunes, Spotify or wherever you hear good things. Throw him some support on Patreon, and see lots of his paintings, musings and cover songs on Instagram. His latest album,ARTHUR BUCK, a collaboration with Peter Buck (of R.E.M.), was one of my favorite records of 2018.
