TMB69 – Peter Moore – Chasing Presence: Sketching Truth Through Absurdity

petermoore.substack.com

I’ve been deeply moved by Peter Moore’s storytelling…moments that swing wildly from fart whistles to moments so tender they hit you in the gut. In this episode, we trek across landscapes both literal and emotional: foggy hikes in the White Mountains, late‑night Red Rocks concerts, and game‑time awakenings with Nikola Jokic. We talk Zen in baseball fandom, bearing life’s absurdities with humor and awe, the transformative risks that nearly killed him, and how cartooning saved his voice.
Peter’s journey—from ghostwriting for others to unveiling his own story through writing and illustration—is a roadmap for anyone wondering how and when to own their truth. He helps us see that suffering isn’t just something to survive—it’s something we can narrate, almost redeem, by sharing it with others. Tune in if you want to explore life’s summits, stumbles, and the laughter that helps us move ever forward.
