Travis Terns joins the MI PEOPLE Podcast for a wide-ranging conversation that blends philosophy, personal experience, and grounded Midwest perspective. Based in Ypsilanti and managing a restaurant in Ann Arbor, this episode moves beyond surface-level small talk and dives into how people form meaning, find drive, and stay connected in a world that often feels divided.
The conversation explores the relationship between science and spirituality, the value of open discourse, and why curiosity matters more than credentials. It also touches on growing up in small Michigan towns, how community shapes accountability, and why shared struggle has historically brought people together rather than pushing them apart.
This episode doesn’t aim to provide neat answers. Instead, it invites listeners to sit with big ideas — from the human condition to generational knowledge, from personal responsibility to cultural division — and think more deeply about how those ideas show up in everyday life.
