Fat Monks with Jay Shetty

This week, we’re joined by the one and only Jay Shetty— a #1 New York Times bestselling author, award-winning podcast host of On Purpose, former monk, and actual modern-day guru. We talk about everything from his past life in an ashram (cold showers and all) to what spirituality actually looks like in the real world. Ben tries to get out of shaving his head if he becomes a monk, Josh offers to take his shirt off, and we all spiral into a surprisingly deep convo about anger, meditation, and the subtle art of not losing your mind in traffic. Jay also opens up about fame, service, his marriage, and the power of doing small, hard things every day to build self-worth. Plus, we answer your messages about open relationships and unrequited friendships. What are ya, nuts?! Love ya! Follow Jay on Instagram , subscribe to his podcast On Purpose, and sign-up for his newsletter. For the first time ever, fans can experience On Purpose in person. Join Jay Shetty for live conversations with surprise guests, guided meditations, and inspiring insights that blend ancient wisdom with storytelling to spark growth, learning, and connection.
