I love how Dave speaks in a way that in Russian there is an expression: "Start from a far". He starts talking about topic, goes long way and different roads, links many stories that you think are not related to it, and at the end is like unexpected eureka moment where he makes conclusion and all stories are kind of linked together to one spot and make sense.

Choe is the man. He had an art show, The Choe Show, in Koreatown that you had to apply to get into, then you got to go for free. He basically turned an entire office building into an art installation. Everyone was broken up into groups, put on painters suits, and had a tour guide. I cant even begin to desribe how amazing and life-changing it was. Each floor of the building, including the roof was a completely different themes, all executed in amazing detail. There were live 3-D holograms, a choir, actors reciting lines throughout the tour, the craziest paintings and art pieces all over the place. I honestly cant even comprehend how much I saw in those 3 hours. There were no phones allowed. I will never forget David singled me out of my group and took me over to a sink where an elderly Korean man and Choe himself started washing my hands, bothing wearing diapers, whilst asking me very emotional questions. I wish he would do it again so more people could experience it, it was incredible. Such an underrated talent and human being.

I ran into him on the road walking he had snorkle in his hands and was wear a gucci board shorts lol. I recognized him right away and we started talking story. Incredible person

This should’ve been an 8 hour episode.

I love how Choe pours his heart out on the mic. Every time I watch one of his WHOLE interviews I can see how cerebral this dude is and how simple but complex his state of mind is. This I can relate too and I applaud steve-o for bringing him on the show 👏👏👏

Just want to say this is probably one of my favorite episodes of the podcast, really hit home for me... I was literally in tears thinking about myself when you guys were talking about addiction, depression, and shame. Made me really look at myself and my issues with how I feel emotionally and my issues with my past, chronic nerve pain, and food. I've been on the fence about therapy for a while and I think hearing David and the methods he mentioned about coping and stuff has really made me think therapy might really help so I can learn coping mechanisms. I know yall wont see this but I still wanted to say thank you to you guys and David. Sometimes it's hard to self reflect and this helped

I'm only 22 and I've been having back and neck and jaw tightness ever since around May of this year! Done PT and myofunctional therapy and yet I wake up almost every day still feeling that tension, no good explanation from the therapists either. But around two weeks ago I noticed the 'Healing back pain' book David was talking about on my shelf because I had apparently bought it like two years ago and so I started looking into TMS and I decided to just try to work on giving myself the space to let my emotions come up and to just accept them. It has only been a couple weeks but my back is doing better since I have accepted that it is likely trapped emotions manifesting as muscle tension. It is honestly crazy to me that David is talking about all this now as I'm just getting started trying to release some of this stress, I think I'm on the right path, I appreciate you David!

David Choes’ interview is awesome, super interesting person and super down to earth. I can completely relate to the understanding that living experience is worth so much more than money. Mr. Choe, if you get to read this, thank you for the “ego” statements.

David's show on FX was absolutely incredible. Super meaningful and helped facilitate so many conversations with friends, family, and myself. I'm sorry to hear he doesn't think it was the success he hoped for it. The art direction and story telling was the best television I've ever seen. I hope to see many more episodes. Would love for it to continue forever.
