{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Just Curious with Rob Evans","slug":"JustCuriousRob","podcastDescription":"Rob Evans is a father, storyteller, and lifelong seeker—rooted in love, sharpened by loss, and shaped by an enduring hunger for truth.
He doesn’t claim to have the answers. Instead, he honors the questions—the ones that live in the quiet, the ones we inherit, and the ones we ask to stay alive.

Born from the intersections of identity, struggle, joy, and growth, Rob’s life has been a classroom long before he ever taught in one. He has walked with pain and purpose, navigated systems that weren’t built for him, and found his way through reflection, community, and grace. His curiosity is not a performance—it’s a practice. A way of seeing the world, and of seeing himself within it.

Just Curious with Rob Evans is more than a podcast. It’s a journal, a reckoning, a soft place to land. It’s a space for honest conversation, deep listening, and the courage to ask better questions—not to fix the world, but to understand it. To connect across difference. To remember we’re not alone. To heal.

Each episode invites listeners into a moment—a story, a conversation, a breath. Sometimes personal. Sometimes communal. Always real. Whether exploring the echoes of fatherhood, the weight of leadership, or the quiet power of presence, Rob approaches each topic with a tenderness that disarms and a wisdom that resonates.

He believes that growth is sacred. That curiosity is a form of resistance. That the most transformational conversations begin not with certainty, but with openness.

This is his compass. This is his offering.
Just Curious with Rob Evans—where questions are the compass.","podcastLogo":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/imglogo/image-logo/20821007/podcast_logo_min_1400.jpg","podcastShareLogo":"https://d2bwo9zemjwxh5.cloudfront.net/image-logo/20821007/podcast_logo_min_1400_1200x628.jpg?s=90b74d2481d87fa4379dd2a580b59a00&e=jpg","podcastUrl":"https://JustCuriousRob.podbean.com","podcastCanSearched":true,"feedUrl":"https://feed.podbean.com/JustCuriousRob/feed.xml","theme":"elegant","podcastDeepLink":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-9bq6z-13db40f?from=usersite","removePodbeanBranding":"no","brandingLogo":null,"timeZone":{"timeZoneId":5,"gmtAdjustment":"GMT-08:00","useDaylightTime":1,"value":-8,"text":"(GMT-08:00) Pacific Time (US & Canada)","daylightStartTime":"Second Sunday Of March +2 Hours","daylightEndTime":"First Sunday Of November +2 Hours","timezone":"America/Los_Angeles"},"podcastDownloads":null,"totalEpisodes":16,"showComments":true,"iOSAppDownloadLink":null,"customizeCssUrl":null,"androidAppDownloadLink":null,"showPostShare":true,"showLike":true,"author":"Rob Evans","enableEngagementStats":true,"shareEmbedLink":"https://admin5.podbean.com/embed.html?id=pbblog-9bq6z-13db40f-playlist","language":"en","sensitivitySessionExpireTime":3600,"podcastApps":[{"name":"Apple Podcasts","link":"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/just-curious-with-rob-evans/id1821224307","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/apple-podcast.png","title":null},{"name":"YouTube","link":"https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSxdGWdP3ww&list=PLfy2HVXN_JHqkio7gR9-7_swx4qody6Ef","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/youtube_logo.png","title":null},{"name":"Podbean App","link":"https://www.podbean.com/pw/pbblog-9bq6z-13db40f?from=usersite","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/podbean-app.png","title":null},{"name":"Spotify","link":"https://open.spotify.com/show/0m6cfics8SE9lbbeR8FwX9","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/spotify.png","title":null},{"name":"Amazon Music","link":"https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/20ce918b-3d6e-4e54-b28b-6631b267c1f3","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/AmazonMusic.png","title":null},{"name":"iHeartRadio","link":"https://iheart.com/podcast/288128582","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/iHeartRadio.png","title":null},{"name":"PlayerFM","link":"https://player.fm/series/3712057","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/PlayerFM.png","title":null},{"name":"Podchaser","link":"https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/just-curious-with-rob-evans-6169333","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/Podchaser.webp","title":null},{"name":"BoomPlay","link":"https://www.boomplaymusic.com/podcasts/141556","image":"https://pbcdn1.podbean.com/fs1/site/images/admin5/BoomPlay.png","title":null}],"components":{"base":[{"id":"MainStyle","val":"light"},{"id":"Font","val":"Geometric Humanist"},{"id":"SecondaryFont","val":"Geometric Humanist"},{"id":"PlayerColor","val":"#428200"},{"id":"PlayerStyle","val":"player1"},{"id":"PlayerWave","val":"show"},{"id":"Favicon","val":null},{"id":"CookiesNotice","val":"hide"},{"id":"CookiesNoticeContent","val":"

In this finale of the “What’s Next” series, Rob asks: What do you do with your free time? From a St. Louis story about “Free Time LLC” to reflections on struggle, self-compassion, and purpose, this episode reframes free time as ownership—not idleness—and explores how volunteering and giving back can shape what’s next.
