The first of the year we all have those resolutions don't we? Some are great, some are terrible. In this world of body shaming and constantly trying to look good, let us set some reasonable expectations for ourselves. Hopefully 2021 will be kind to our physical and mental health!

2020 is over. It was not the year we wanted by any stretch, but what if I told you that it was not as bad as you think? Don't believe me? Let's talk about it. Here is our goodbye to 2020 and hello to 2021. HTW Pod Style! Recorded Prior to 01/06/2021

I had a former classmate of mine die by suicide. It has hit me hard. This show talks of mental health, and we need to talk about it right now.

Joe and I get together to discuss what we've learned both good and bad about ourselves and our families during the pandemic. What have you learned?

The Summer of 2020 is over. We are back to our regularly scheduled shenanigans! Join us for the intro to the HTW Happy Hours! Your chance to be a part of the show!

Joe and I talk about our all time lineups in the world of baseball. The best at every position. It was a great break from everything Rona related!

Joe and I talk about movies overall! Our favorites, the best, overrated, underrated, and guilty pleasures!

The other side of the coin is the Police. The thin blue line that separates order from chaos. Is the treatment of the police fair? Are cops as bad as they say? Let's discuss.

With time to think and observe, we dive into the current racial unrest in the country. Justice for Floyd, Protest, riots, and black lives matter. We hit it all.

The pandemic rages on, but the real rage is what we are doing to each other. Could we possibly be any worse to those who might think a little differently? I think not.

There's too much Corona Virus and not enough sports! Joe and I are trying to think of happier things! We discuss sports movies! Our favorites, the most underrated, overrated, and our guilty pleasures!

So how have we scored in our first quarter of the Pandemic? The Government, the population, and the essential workers. The grades are in, and there is work to do!

Isolation and Quarantine. Quarantine and Isolation. These are some strange times that can take a toll on everyone's mental health. Joe and I talk it over. Here's hoping it helps during these crazy days!

The Covid-19 Virus is getting wild! Let's talk about what we need to do and how we need to handle each other. These are crazy times, so let's keep a cool head on our shoulders.

Let's have a real conversation. We're not going to be politically correct and we are not going to sugar coat the truth. We have things to discuss about life, love, and moving forward.

From my thirtieth birthday to my fortieth. This has been a decade of never ending change. Highs, lows, and everything in between was found from 2010 - 2020.

While Kyle is on vacation, join Joe and Gabby as they bring you their latest episode of "What's Good?" Always a treat to get some fresh perspective by our little future podcaster!

In the context of life and relationships, whose responsibility is it for your happiness? The answer might surprise you. Why has the "Happiest Day of your Life" not withstood the test of time? Let's discuss.

There is no message, there is no deeper meaning. We take a week as two home grown Kansas City fans to revel in the victory of the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl 54. Joe and I celebrate a historic victory 50 years in the making!

We have the excitement of the home town team in the big game. While that is great, often our fantasy sports world can collide with real life. That has happened a lot lately. We're going to talk about when sports go bad and the effect it has on us all.

We interrupt our usual broadcast to bring you two guys elated with their home town team! We talk about our Kansas City Chiefs heading to the Big Game (wink wink) for the first time in 50 years! We share our Chiefs memories, heartbreaks, and triumphs!

Happy New Year! 2020 is shaping up to be an unforgettable year. With all the political intrigue, at some point and time the nastiness will start. This could be the most devisive election season we have ever seen. What will you do with it? Give in to the hate, or remember that we can disagree without the hate.

It is the end of the year and the end of season one of Hitting the Wall! With your support, we have had such a wonderful time bringing you these last fifteen episodes! Joe joins us to wrap up season one, talk about 2019, and where we are going in 2020!

The Holiday's and loss seem to go together for some. Myself included. I want to tell you about my latest loss, and share with anyone who has lost during the Holiday season that there is a way to keep going. It is not fun and it is not easy. It is however, possible. This one is a tear jerker! Grab a kleenex and let's get this done.

November is Salute to Service month. We welcome our special guest from the Air Force Shaunie! Shaunie is stationed in Germany at the time of this taping. We will talk to her about life in the military and life over sea's. Enjoy a new voice and new perspective on life!

Have you looked in the mirror and not recognized the eyes staring back at you? I sure have. That my friends in the Monster in the Mirror. When it is not our reflection but our character staring back at us, it can some times show us the beast we've become. Listen in and see if you can recognize your monsters.

Today we celebrate host Kyle's 100th Podcast! For over two years, 100 episodes, and two shows we've laughed, cried, and grown together. Think back a little and look forward a lot as we take this moment to just say Thank You for all your support!

Burned out in your relationship? We've all been there. Here's some signs that you are in some trouble. It is never too late to change them, but you have to see the problem before you can solve it. Then we switch gears to talk about finding your voice. Whatever it is, how ever you use it. Put it out there for the world to hear, because people need YOU.

Burnout. The burnout is real my friends. Here's a few identifiers of it. Once we see the problem, we can start to fix it. Let's put out the fires of "Burnout" and get back to what we love!

#ToxicNegativity
