Rick Glassman, is God Not Cool in Comedy? | Ep 1 | Soul Boom

Rainn Wilson sits down with comedian ‪@rickglassman‬ (Take Your Shoes Off podcast, ABC's Not Dead Yet), known for his sharp wit and unique comedic timing. The two ponder their spiritual beliefs and fears that speaking on God could polarize the audience. Rick opens up about his adult diagnosis of autism and how this revelation shed light on his unique approach to communication, both offstage and on. He shares how this provided him with a lens through which to re-evaluate his mental health, past interactions and struggles for connection. They delve into the art of joke-telling, discussing the delicate balance between making the audience laugh and letting them in on the joke, creating a shared space of understanding and enjoyment.

    I've been following Rick for a while and when he does talk about being neurodivergent, I feel like it's really important and vulnerable for him, but it's so valuable for people that may not have understood the things that come with autism before. Rec encourage me to do my own research. It helps me understand certain people in my family, who have autism and a whole lot of us have ADHD, which is also neurodivergent, including myself. I really appreciate how Rick can be funny and then serious. That's the best balance. I clicked on this for Rick but I think I'll stay listening for Rainn.

    This was me too.. to get things done I'd need someone with me (mirroring) for my brain to kick in and do it. And also there's an aspect of executive dysfunction where you don't know where to start. It may seem simple to others.. but it can be overwhelming. And the cherry ontop is finding out you're dyslexic too.. so you're a visual thinker.. so you see things in your brain like it's a projector.. and teachers are like.. why can't they do the task. Our brains are different and we never got a God damn instruction manual.. and there's no helpline to call just hold music (people having no idea how to help) and trying but making things worse and you feel more incapable with neurotypical solutions to neurodivergent brains. Okay I'm done 😊 haha Great podcast. ❤🎉

    Coming from working in the healthcare sector, there's something we talk about called compassion fatigue. It means that the extension of your compassionate instincts can be taken too far because your boundaries are being pushed without consent. The consent part is sometimes missed, or replaced with "you chose your job". I would say that while Rainn has spoken about doing it monthly by month and by his choosing, be careful how far you go because I've seen the most conscious and put together people break down from compassion fatigue leading to complete burnout layered with heavy guilt for feeling like they've failed.

I’d love to talk to you both! lol I just paused this video at the point of breaking down autism and brushing on the topic of masking. I have spent the last few years on my own personal hero/healing journey. I had to stop this video and post another comment stressing the part about more in depth of the autistic experience. I would love to talk with you guys about it all. I have a few special interests. Some of which simultaneously come and go in cycles. But for the past I don’t even know how many years at this point, the top interests have been autism, psychology, spirituality and philosophy. With a side of mental health and wellness.

    This is SO comforting and good to hear. I was raised Bahai annd I drifted away from it in my rebelious years, but as a man in my 30's, I have almost the exact same view as Rainn and I think it is absolutely worth exploring the intersection of religion and spirituality and all of the pros and cons that come with our understanding of existence.

    I love Rick so much. Selling your autism, so relatable. It’s one of my most frustrating things. “Idk dude everybody does that” “you don’t seem autistic”. It’s inevitable. I don’t even bring up my autism all that much, only in situations where I kinda have to and it’s always met with judgement and stupid questions

    As a perspn on the autistic spectrum, i was very pleased by this first convo. The blunt, honest conversation very much resonates with me. With regard to umbrella of neurodivergencies such as autism, ADHD, and AudASD, it has often been assumed that the character of Dwight was autistic and that Rainn is undiagnosed on the spectrum.

    how did you know that you should seek out help to try and figure out if you were autistic, like I wanna do it but there are so many steps and I don't know where to start, I am already bipolar, ADHD, avoidant personality disorder and social anxiety, but like after having lived alone and not worked for a very long time I no longer feel like the bipolar fots, that was something that would have fit when I had to be under a lot of stress all the time, but what if I'm misdiagnosed, like I've never fit in, I feel like people intentionally misunderstand me all the time, I have a lot of sensory issues but that can be the ADHD though.

    The more we realize we can only control how we feel, the less other people’s opinions will affect us. With that understanding we have a solid ground under our feet, we gain control over ourselves and then we can better understand how we feel. Self acceptance was the first step for me. And by the way, how I LOVE this podcast already! Thank you 🌻

    See, the autism discussions are so important, especially for women. Women with autism present in a different way than what is typically recognized as being "autistic". So many in my life were like "duh, we know".. But there were a few who said I wasnt.. I thought the same too, like.. You have no idea what I do when people arent around. You know the masked me. You have nooo idea what goes on in my head. It got worse when everyone started self diagnosing on tiktok.. Now, everyone thinks everyone is just making up that they're autistic to be "different"

    I’ve never known religion, I come from a home of scientists. I’m far too pragmatic to ever believe in any one religion, and I philosophically define myself as an absurdist. Nonetheless, this was a fascinating watch, and was well worth the time spent. Looking forward to more. I hadn’t heard of the Baha’i faith before just now, but I do see the value for many to lead a life with spirituality at the forefront. Not that either of you said this, but I do resent the idea that being spiritual is a prerequisite to having a strong moral compass, or even that it’s a prerequisite to finding a ‘tribe’. I have, and love and adore all of my people, and they run the gamut of religious beliefs.

    Nice post. As far the connection between morality and spirituality, i would say morality exists not in the physical world but the mental, emotional world. So moral terms like responsibility and generosity are felt. We talk about a moral compass on a soul level. I think the connection between the moral compass and spirituality, or the soul, is just semantic. It's just making the distinction from the physical to the emotional and conceptual. Not sure how i clear i was but again, great post!

The wit, the banter, the emotional intelligence,... and i say that wearing outside clothes while inside. I also admire Rainn's mission with this podcast,... you may want to get Pete Holmes on if you haven't already, his grasp on religion/philosophy/spirituality/theosophy/comedy is a close 2nd to Russell Brand.

    What an amazing start to a new podcast. So happy to have a podcast like this come into the mix and such a perfect choice of first guest. Also generally speaking pods take a little time to settle but they just found a natural rhythm straight off the bat, led by Rainn who is simply a natural. I know it's essentially just a conversation but in reality there's a lot more to it and they just knocked it out of the park day one, which is a lot easier said than done. Can't wait to see more... Neal Brennan... David Cross... Both are doing the pod circuit currently I believe....

It is indeed VERY MUCH SO the experience of a Spitual Being in a human body and being able to ADAPT to this material matrix and the Laws that apply to this material World!!!!! Much Love And Peace To All, I Am Practicing Compassion And Learning To Being Less Attached To External Things!!! After all it is a Learning Experience for a Spiritual Being!!!! 🙏🔥🌈✨️❤️
