In Episode 32 of Chasing Joy, the conversation centers on walking for peace as a deliberate, embodied act in a deeply divided moment.

Rather than debating ideas or amplifying opinions, this episode reflects on what it means to show up physically and intentionally... choosing presence, restraint, and humility over performance or persuasion. The walk becomes a way to examine uncertainty, emotional tension, and the challenge of standing alongside others without needing agreement or resolution.

Welcome back to Chasing Joy… where curiosity, creativity, and real life collide.

In this episode, Spencer, Bryan, and Wayne are joined by Joel Miller, author, lifelong rock roadie, and host of the Party Like a Rock Star podcast, for a conversation that completely flips the narrative on social media.

If you’ve listened to the show before, you know Spencer is famously skeptical of social media and the chaos it brings. This time, the tables turn. Joel is living proof that social platforms can actually be used for something better… connection, encouragement, and creative joy.

Joel shares stories from his years on the road with legendary acts like Stone Temple Pilots and Ozzy Osbourne, and how those experiences shaped his voice, perspective, and sense of purpose. From backstage chaos to viral reaction videos watched by over a million people each month, Joel breaks down what it really takes to build an audience without losing your soul.

Along the way, the conversation dives into creativity, humor, loss, resilience, and why purpose matters more than popularity. There are laughs, unexpected insights, and a few moments that might make you rethink how you show up online… and offline.

Whether you love social media, hate it, or feel stuck somewhere in between, this episode is a reminder that joy can still be shared loudly, generously, and authentically… even in the noisiest places.

In this new-year episode of Chasing Joy, the hosts move past the pressure of resolutions and into a deeper conversation about renewal, rebirth, and reinvention.

Rather than treating change as something to fix or force, they explore the idea that transformation is already happening... constantly. Through humor, philosophy, and reflection, the conversation examines why resolutions often fail, how identity hardens over time, and what it means to shed the “armor” we’ve built just to survive.

This episode invites listeners to reconsider growth not as a grand reset, but as a rhythm—one shaped by awareness, intention, and small daily practices that reconnect us to what’s underneath the noise. If the new year has you questioning who you are, who you’ve become, or what no longer fits, this conversation offers a grounded, human place to start.

P.S. Bryan misatributed a saying from Heraclitus to Rene Decartes.
