What would it change in a trades business if the sales team stopped waiting on leads and started owning the pipeline? In this episode, Jordan White tells Chad Peterman how he moved to Nashville with a beat-up truck, slept on a kid's couch, and built a high-end roofing company that grew from $2M to just over $20M in four years, almost entirely off door-to-door hustle. Jordan breaks down how he and his partner built a visionary/integrator partnership, fed the business first instead of chasing early distributions, and created a culture where clean-cut, young hustlers can make multiple six figures by knocking on doors in affluent neighborhoods. The conversation connects directly to HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other home service leaders who are tired of blaming "the market" or "this generation" and are ready to build a scoreboard-driven, people-first sales culture instead. If you lead a trades business and want a place to work on your leadership, culture, and growth strategy with other owners who get it, get plugged into The Arena, the private community built for home service leaders who refuse to coast.

Visionary and integrator for trades growth – how he and his partner split roles so the business isn't dependent on one person.

Hello and Welcome to the DX Corner for yourweekly Dose of DX. I'm Bill, AJ8B.I mentioned previously that I would be addressing two issues, as I do at the beginning of each year. The first is my goals for 2026. We accomplished that last week. The second issue was to share those contests that I have participated in over the years. I have found them to be excellent opportunities to improve your skills, garner you some new band slots and potentially some ATNOS. The dates that I am referring to include the State QSO Parties, international DX contests, and regional DX contests. I have worked many normally difficult entities during contests and found it very easy (sometimes) to get them in the log. I have about 90 dates that I would suggest that you keep in mind. However, you don't need to write them down. I have created two items to make it easy for you. There is a list of dates andcontests in both .pdf and Excel format. Both files can be found at www.aj8b.com/files. Let me know if you have any questions. If you are somewhat skilled with Excel, you can create a CSV file from the Excel workbook and import it in to your personal calendar.The following DX information comes from Bernie, W3UR, editor of the DailyDX, the WeeklyDX, and the How's DX column in QST. If you would like a free 2-week trial of the DailyDX, your only source of real-time DX information, justdrop me a note at thedxmentor@gmail.comKP5/NP3VI, Desecheo Island, makes history  - At its four-day mark, KP5/NP3VI has made over 10,000 QSOs on all continents.

The location is on the island's northern shore with an unobstructed view over water, using generator power 24/7 due to lack of public electricity. Their  main goal is to provide contacts from Guinea-Bissau, which is ranked as number  85 worldwide, and number 53 in Asia. QSL cards and LoTW confirmations will be managed through Club Log OQRS, and donations are welcome via Club Log.H4 - Solomon Islands - DL2GAC, Bernhard now in the Solomon Islands as H44MS until mid-May.  He departed India last Wednesday, arriving in the Solomons' capital on Friday.  He is renewing his H44MS license, which was scheduled to expire in early February.  He will move to his "usual QTH" there tomorrow or Wednesday.  He has taken with him a Hexbeam that covers 20-6, to replace his old tri-bander that covered 20-10.  He says the weather is poor, lots of rain, no sunshine.  He plans to mostly be on 40M this time, with a dipole 20M high in a palm tree near the ocean. V6 - Federated States of Micronesia - Yesterday afterarriving on Chuuk (OC-011), JA1XGI (Haru) reports his amplifier was likely damaged during airport transport.

In this episode, we're joined by Madhav Bhandari, VP Marketing at Storylane, the demo automation platform helping B2B teams show their product before prospects ever talk to sales. Storylane is a profitable, fully remote SaaS with 50 employees, and a clear path toward $20M+. Madhav shares how Storylane broke out of the “race to average” in an insanely crowded martech and sales tech market, not by spending more, but by building a repeatable system for pattern interruption. We unpack how they used unconventional SEO, brand plays, and GTM experiments to grow brand searches from 1,500 to 12,000 per month, drive massive inbound, and turn marketing into a true growth engine. We spoke with Madhav about why great products aren't enough anymore, how to become the first vendor prospects discover, and how to build a marketing portfolio that consistently produces breakout ideas instead of chasing one-hit wonders. Here are some of the key questions we address: Why visibility, not budget, is the real advantage in crowded SaaS markets What pattern interruption actually means and how to systematize it How Storylane grew brand searches 8x and created an unfair inbound advantage Why traditional SEO and blog strategies are too slow, and what replaced them How to build a marketing portfolio instead of chasing viral one-offs Where pattern interruption should live and why leadership must own it

Alexi Lalas and David Mosse are back with a new episode of State of the Union! Today we break down all the action from this week's Champions League slate, including Weston McKennie finding the back of the net for Juventus AGAIN and Manchester City suffering a shocking defeat in Norway. After, we discuss Patrick Agyemang and Haji Wright scoring once more for their clubs in the Championship and a potential $20M move to the Premier League for Agyemang. In #AskAlexi, we debate if Christian Pulisic is in a slump or not for Milan and get to the bottom of Mosse's amazing mind. To finish up in One for the Road, Alexi reacts to a stunning story about the kidnapping of a former MLS manager.

The long-anticipated Luis Robert Jr. trade has finally happened, and we're here to break down what it means for your 2026 Chicago White Sox. In this emergency podcast, Duke Coughlin and Nik Gaur react to the White Sox trading Luis Robert to the New York Mets, closing the book on the last major piece of the previous front office era. The guys discuss why the return feels underwhelming to many fans and whether Chris Getz realistically could've done better - or if he should have just kept him instead. The conversation then shifts to incoming prospects Luisangel Acuña and Truman Pauley. The two focus largely on Acuña, due to his expected prominent role with the 2026 club. Despite his defensive versatility, speed, and winter-league performance, Duke and Nik have differing opinions on just how good of a prospect Acuña is and just how much long-term value he will provide to the team. Where do you fall in this debate?   Finally, the duo looks ahead: what the $20M in payroll flexibility actually means, why the outfield remains a glaring need, and how the White Sox should approach the rest of the offseason. The episode closes with a reflective send-off for Luis Robert, revisiting favorite moments and acknowledging what could have been.

Episode 291 features Scott Love in conversation with legal business development strategist Karen Kaplowitz on how lawyers can use charitable sponsorships to deepen client relationships and generate business in a way that feels authentic. Kaplowitz defines “charitable sponsorships” as the common scenario where a client invites a lawyer or law firm to support a charity through events such as dinners, honoree celebrations (often for a general counsel or senior executive), golf tournaments, or fundraising activities. While this can resemble other networking, she argues the charity context creates a stronger “expectation of interaction” and a closer bond because the client is personally invested. Done well, it is not simply writing a check; it is learning what the client and their company care about and showing up in meaningful ways that build trust and access in an increasingly competitive market where competitors are often being invited to the same opportunities. Kaplowitz emphasizes that the biggest mistake firms make is treating charity involvement as a one-and-done transaction, which leads to wasted spend and missed relationship leverage. The value comes from being intentional: doing advance research on who will be there, coordinating internally to ensure the right lawyers attend, arriving early, engaging purposefully, and following up to convert introductions into ongoing relationships. She highlights high-impact approaches such as volunteering alongside clients (e.g., joining a client's Thanksgiving service activity), helping a charity by mobilizing firm resources when a key client is being honored, and serving on boards where clients can see lawyers “in action” as problem-solvers. Her three recommended action steps are: (1) identify what charities your most important clients support, (2) plan specific ways to support the client and the charity (sponsorship, board service, volunteering, fundraising), and (3) execute with consistent follow-through as part of an organized relationship plan with clear activities and a budget.

Sixteen years ago I walked away from the traditional career path. And I haven't looked back. Between selling websites in college, building SEO niches, launching service retainers, coaching, and exploring coffee shops and AI apps, I've generated somewhere between $10M and $20M without ever punching a clock. Today on the podcast, I'm pulling back the curtain on every money-making venture I've tried, the lessons I learned, and the fresh ideas I'm gearing up to launch next. Listen in and discover how I flipped websites in college for $2K–$10K apiece, why niche SEO sites once paid me $300+ per month on autopilot, the secret to pitching reoccurring service retainers that clients can't cancel, how I scaled one-on-one consulting into $120K last year, my upcoming experiments—from an underground coffee pop-up to parenting AI tools, faceless YouTube channels, and daily text-message coaching If you've ever wondered how to turn hustle into real income, or what to try next, this episode is your roadmap.

Send JD a text message and be heard!The @mets make their first splash of the #mlb offseason signing #bobichette to a 3-$126M deal with opt outs in year one and two.  He's also going to play 3B which he's never played in his professional career what could go wrong?  Agree with @jaymahanti & @joewillie62 he played SS so arm strength won't be a concern. Everyone is concerned about an #mlblockout in 2027.  I mean the Mets offered @ktuck_30 4-$220M but the @dodgers beat them out at 4-$240M.  $60M a season for a player who hit three more HR's and one more RBI than @anthonyvolpe who's making $3.4M.  @thejudge44 making $40M as reigning MVP & Tucker getting $20M more this season.  Tucker coming off .266-22-73 season.  Make it make sense.  @companyadjace @thomaswdonovan @nyquil_inthe_flesh @call_me_tca_prez @paddy_bailey & @brianbarnaby had a nice debate over the @yankees great pitching staff when everyone is back healthy.  Also Hal selling the team to Jeff Bezos.   It doesn't matter Cashman and Boone aren't going anywhere.  We are going to have a pool for win totals for all AL East teams this year.  As for the @nyrangers retooling letter from #chrisdrury to the fans @ari_gold24 thanks for explaining that basically Panarin, Zibanejad, Trocheck and Fox are all unmovable and Panarin is an UFA at the end of the #nhl season.  So not sure where the new blood is coming from & who's being traded to make it happen.  NFL playoff picks: @buffalobills 24-10 over @broncos sorry @steve.cohn7 @49ers 21-17 over @seahawks I just don't trust Sam Darnold @partylikearochkind @dominic.etienne @houstontexans 17-14 over @patriots @c_brown518 @d__brown15 yep I did & @rams 28-17 over @chicagobears thought about going Bears but their slow starts scare me.  Sports trivia at the finish line.All sports.

Pirates reporter Jason Mackey from the PG joined the show. Jason reflected on the news of the PG, his main employer, ceasing to exist as of May 2026. Jason described yesterday as an ‘odd' day. Jason gave his quick thoughts on the Steelers-Texans matchup Monday night. Jason told us the Pirates were not close to signing Kazuma Okamoto, despite what many claimed on social media before or after the fact. He thinks Okamoto will be a pretty good MLB player. Is Eugenio Suarez still a realistic possibility at 3B? Jason doesn't see it if the contract approaches $20M/year.

Mike Tomlin spent some time praising the Texans' defense earlier this week. Are we as a collective sleeping on what Houston can bring on that side of the ball? The guys think the Steelers can hang around in this game, but not due to the doubts of that defense, but of the offense. CJ Stroud is a good QB, but hasn't taken the step to ‘great' just yet. The last 3 QBs that have beaten the Steelers in the playoffs have all won the MVP award. Stroud isn't that player yet. Is Demeco Ryans the mirror image matchup against Mike Tomlin? Is it a little bit of what Tomlin wishes he had? Pirates reporter Jason Mackey from the PG joined the show. Jason reflected on the news of the PG, his main employer, ceasing to exist as of May 2026.

In this explosive deep dive, Tara exposes the staggering scope of government fraud hiding in plain sight — starting with $19 BILLION in daycare fraud alone. From Minnesota to California, federally funded “childcare centers” exist only on paper: boarded-up buildings, barred doors, zero children — yet tens of millions flowing in taxpayer money. Tara breaks down how Biden-era rule changes weakened oversight, how fraud metastasized nationwide, and why panic has set in among Democrat officials as investigators finally move in. This episode connects the dots between mass migration, job shortfalls, welfare dependency, and systemic fraud — and explains why independent journalism on X shattered a media blockade that once made all of this untouchable.

She went from selling hydration drinks out of the trunk of her car to building a $20M brand, without outside investors, industry experience or playing by the rules.  In this episode, Jesslyn Rollins, the CEO of Biolyte, reveals how grassroots hustle, relentless sampling, and a medical-grade "IV in a bottle" helped her break into one of the most competitive categories in beverages, and why the brand is now ready to make its boldest move yet. Show notes: 0:25: Interview: Jesslyn Rollins, CEO, Biolyte – At BevNET Live L.A. 2025, Jesslyn recounted Biolyte's origins in 2016, when her father developed a medical-grade rehydration formula and she began selling it out of her car to high school athletic programs. She details how success with local football teams led to Biolyte's big break into Kroger's natural store sections, where cold placement and in-store sampling fueled rapid growth. Jesslyn talks about how Biolyte has expanded across regions, launched a rebrand, secured national powder-pack distribution in Walgreens and CVS, and positioned itself as a premium rapid rehydration sports drink with significantly higher electrolytes than legacy brands. She emphasizes the importance of consumer trust, data-driven storytelling, and evolving the brand's message beyond niche use cases like athletics or illness to everyday wellness. Despite intense competition, operational challenges, and no outside investment, she stays motivated by customer testimonials and a clear mission, noting that Biolyte is now at an inflection point where incremental growth isn't enough and bold strategic change is needed to become "the rehydration drink for the next generation." Brands in this episode: Biolyte, Gatorade, Powerade, 7UP, Poppi, BodyArmor

In this episode of The Capital Raiser Show, Richard C. Wilson sits down with Paul Hutchinson, co-founder of a multi-billion dollar real estate investment fund, founder of the Child Liberation Foundation and Liberating Humanity, and primary investor/executive producer of the film "Sound of Freedom." Paul shares how he went from a $20M exit in his 20s, to losing hundreds of thousands on his first real estate deals, to ultimately building a multi-billion dollar multifamily platform by bringing in world-class partners, managing risk, and operating with uncompromising integrity through the 2008 crisis. He also opens up about his decision to commit 10–20% of his income and time to philanthropy early in life, how that shifted his opportunities, and the core mindset that makes someone truly effective at raising capital. Then Paul dives into his undercover work rescuing children, the real story behind "Sound of Freedom," what families actually need to know about trafficking risk, and why he now focuses on global healing and trauma-release through Liberating Humanity and transformational retreats. In this episode, you will learn: How Paul built and sold his first company (anxiety and mental health education) for $20M before age 30 Why he lost money on his first real estate deals and the specific pivot into B-class multifamily that changed everything How bringing in "overqualified" partners (ex–Citigroup leadership, global capital raisers) turned a good firm into a multi-billion dollar fund The role of integrity during the 2008 crisis and how not losing principal created 48% IRR years and long-term investor trust Why committing 10–20% of income and time to giving early can radically change your deal flow, relationships, and opportunities The inside story of Paul's first undercover rescue mission, the making and distribution journey of "Sound of Freedom," and practical ways to better protect your own children If you want to go deeper into capital raising, integrity-based deal structures, and building a life that actually makes a global impact, this conversation will challenge how you think about money, mission, and what "success" really looks like.

Special Guest: George Rivera   https://buybacktimeformula.com Welcome back to the Profits Unleashed Podcast — where podcasting meets purpose and profit. In this powerful episode, I sat down with George Rivera, a father, founder, executive coach, and creator of the Buyback Time Formula. And honestly? This is one conversation every founder needs to hear. George has spent over 30 years in direct response marketing, e-commerce, and real estate coaching. From the outside, his success looked impressive — multi–seven figure businesses, scale, momentum. But behind the scenes, the cost was high: his health, his energy, and most importantly, his time with family. What really moved me was the story that sparked George's pivot. As a child, his father — a successful medical doctor — missed nearly all of his basketball games. Decades later, shortly before his father passed away, George received a simple but life-altering message: “Don't miss Leo's games.” That moment forced George to confront a hard truth — he was repeating the same pattern in his own life. Despite growing his business to $20M, George found himself trapped as the bottleneck, working 60–90 hour weeks, exhausted, resentful, and stuck in what he now calls “founder prison.” That breaking point led him to redesign his role, his team, and his systems — not to slow growth, but to accelerate it. The result? A business that scaled to nearly $50M while he reclaimed his time, worked fewer hours, and became fully present as a father. In this episode, we dive deep into the mindset shifts, delegation frameworks, and practical systems that allow founders to step out of the weeds and lead from their zone of genius — without guilt or fear. George doesn't sugarcoat it. Buying back time isn't magic. It's intentional, structured, and deeply personal. If you've built something powerful but feel trapped inside it, this conversation might just change everything. Key Takeaways (From My Perspective as Host): I learned that burnout isn't a badge of honor — it's a warning sign I saw how poor delegation creates bottlenecks, not protection I was reminded that 80% done by the right person often beats 100% done by me I realized time audits reveal freedom opportunities hiding in plain sight I believe scaling doesn't require sacrifice — it requires systems I'm convinced that buying back time is one of the highest ROI decisions a founder can make

Read our deal analysis on PaladinPaladin Power CEO Ted Thomas—a U.S. Navy veteran with 20+ years in energy storage and the named inventor on multiple U.S. patents for stackable batteries and integrated power systems—joins Inside Startup Investing to explain how he helped pioneer integrated storage and why Paladin's patented, fire-safe, all-in-one system can make true home energy independence practical. We cover why the inverter is the real bottleneck, how Paladin's stackable 10 kW architecture fast-charges EVs and extends battery life, and how the single-device design replaces a tangle of inverters, batteries, and chargers for faster installs and lower cost. Ted shares traction (incl. enterprise wins like Disney), a revenue jump from < $1M to $7–$8M this year with $20M+ in sight, “Made in USA” manufacturing with Jabil, and what's next as Paladin pushes a decentralized power future.News: Paladin engages Aegis Capital Corp. for IPO advisory while it evaluates capital-markets options—no assurance of any IPO; timing/terms subject to market, regulatory and due-diligence outcomes.Chapters(00:00) We open with why batteries remain the bottleneck for EVs and home solar, and how Paladin's inverter-first architecture changes the equation; (03:28) Ted outlines the mission—make every home independent from the grid—plus why legacy systems were designed for grid-tie, not true autonomy; (06:58) we break down the bi-directional, stackable inverters (up to 80 kW in a compact footprint) and how routing solar directly to loads can double battery life; (09:15) cost and efficiency: delivering 30–60% lower system costs versus status-quo builds; (10:29) scaling: U.S. manufacturing with a contract partner, and why distribution/EPC channels are the fastest path to market; (12:00) whole-home power without load shedding, faster installs, and sub-90-minute at-home EV charging; (13:21) IP and moats: utility patents and why copycats face multi-year certification delays; (15:34) use cases and demand drivers—from Disney facilities to homeowners facing rising rates and outages; (20:56) generators vs storage: when backup gensets still make sense and when solar-plus-storage wins; (22:46) Ted's closing case for investors.

This week on the EUVC Podcast, Andreas Munk Holm sits down with Matthew Wilson, co-founder of Jack & Jill, and Peter Specht, General Partner at Creandum. Fresh off a $20M seed to take their AI recruiting agents global, they dig into how conviction is built in Europe, from founding insight to investor belief, and what it now takes to scale an agent-native company with speed, precision, and craft.Jack helps candidates find and optimize their careers. Jill helps companies hire brilliantly. Together, the two agents form a high-signal, two-sided network that aims to become the world's most networked AI-powered recruitment agency — without the classical incentive conflicts of human middlemen.Here's what's covered:02:35 | Why Creandum leaned in, conviction on voice-based interfaces and why recruiting is a massive, broken vertical for agent AI03:38 | The founding moment: leaving Omnipresent, 18 months in the wilderness, and the February insight that agents make talent marketplaces finally viable07:07 | Recruiting is broken (and AI made it worse): why first-principles thinking is needed to avoid “more noise, not more signal.”09:15 | Investor conviction: founder/market fit, why this moment is different, and the defensibility of a two-sided agentic marketplace12:22 | The user experience: the “coffee chat” with an AI recruiter: deep voice conversation → matching, prep, coaching, introductions16:30 | Solving the incentives trap: why Jack works 100% for candidates and Jill works 100% for companies (fixing agency conflicts)19:10 | Coaching as core: how AI unlocks career guidance, interview prep, and hands-on support that humans rarely get today22:47 | Building fast in the AI era: talent density, global expansion, and why a 20M seed makes sense for a dual-product marketplace26:35 | Two companies in one: scaling Jack (consumer) + Jill (B2B) simultaneously, across markets, with AI leverage34:02 | The GTM playbook: engineering-led marketing, AI-driven creative testing, instant value, and rethinking B2B buying entirely37:47 | The new AI go-to-market: speed, PLG dominance, virality-by-design, and why distribution now matters more than ever43:52 | Two GTM worlds: viral AI products vs. slow, enterprise-heavy AI deployments (and why both will coexist)47:15 | The “productization” of marketing — why engineering now powers growth, not headcount-heavy marketing orgs50:29 | Final advice (VC POV) — start with a unique insight, not a trend; think in 5–10 year arcs, not quick ARR bumps

A few weeks ago Andrew Huberman announced that he had partnered with the sports and eyewear company Roka. Together they've put out a specially branded blue-blocking glasses that are designed to help you wind down and get better sleep at night. If that sounds weird to you, you're not alone. Over the years Huberman, who a professor of neurobiology and ophthalmology, has repeatedly said that that he didn't believe that blue blocking classes did all that much. Was it possible that a giant financial windfall could have changed his mind on settled science? It's not totally surprising that leading influencers might themselves be influenced by tidal wave amounts of cash. As  @TaylorLorenz  mentions, we've always doctors on industry payrolls shilling everything from sugar to cigarettes. What's new is that social media engenders para-social relationships with specific influencers whose own opinions, protocols and prognostications tend towards cult-like power over their followers. With more than 15 million combined followers across his social media accounts, Andrew Huberman is likely the most powerful scientific voice on the planet. So when he says something is settled science and then changes his mind for a cash grab, it undermines the public faith in information writ-large.It's just one small step from trusting to untrusting Huberman to someone trusting and then untrusting scientific explanations from anyone. (Incidentally, Benn Jordan just did a great piece on misinformation and explicit propaganda that shows how global powers capitalize on the general distrust of authorities).The thing that I find hardest to understand about Huberman's most recent grift is now that it happened, but why he would need money at all. What motivates his endless greed when it comes at the expense of his integrity? Stanford professors of his caliber make about $250,000 according to Glassdoor.com. That's a pretty solid amount of money all on its own. YouTube ads run automatically and pay about $5.50 per thousand views with what amounts to a strict firewall between his editorial content and the sponsor's demands. (THIS NEXT SENTENCE CONTAINS AN ERROR, PLEASE SEE THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH) Given that he has 365 million views on his channel, it's a simple calculation to figure out that he is bringing in about $7M a year from adsense alone. That means he's already making 28 times his ordinary salary without the need for any ethical compromises on his part. All told, the Huberman Lab podcast has generated at least $20 million over the course of its three year run to date. (CORRECTION THIS PREVIOUS PARAGRAPH CONTAINS AN ERROR: @hubermanlab I calculated that Huberman made $20M on YouTube ads based on his 365M combined views which make around $5.50 CPM. My math was seriously off. The true total would have been only $2M from ad sense. So instead of making 28x the standard Stanford salary, he only was making 3x. I regret the error and will issue a video correction)That's an unfathomable, wasteful and frankly obscene, amount of money from my perspective. Even so, Huberman didn't think that it was enough. The Roka deal will likely give Huberman a sizable payment of $1-2 million over its lifetime. Meanwhile, He has a further 13 paid sponsors on his show which, we can guess net him another $6 million (actually, just $600,000) or so a year. That mindset is what's fundamentally broken with the information universe we live in. Instead of being an upstanding credible vehicle for science, Huberman made the, probably unconscious, decision that money was the most important metric for success. The only silver lining here is that at least we can document exactly when and where he changed his mind on science.I hope that you enjoy the video.

This episode opens with pure chaos: a toilet-water cold open, Maxx accidentally handing out sink water, and Russell getting surprised with a massive 60-pack of wooden hangers. The group slides right into their usual rhythm — roasting each other, questioning life choices, and joking about personal style shifts like cowboy hats and Spotify Wrapped embarrassment. From there, they jump into AI music, Drake theories, and the surprising quality of AI-generated songs, even attempting to generate a country track about the podcast on the spot. The middle of the episode takes a sharp turn into heavier territory: Diddy allegations, Tupac and Biggie conspiracy questions, and a surprisingly detailed breakdown of crime, bullet tracing, shoot/don't-shoot scenarios, and the Oscar Pistorius case. That flows into a long, surprisingly thoughtful conversation about money. OBJ's comments about a $100M contract "not being enough" spark discussions on taxes, lifestyle inflation, athlete culture, and the pressures young stars face. Maxx shares a wild story about someone blowing through $20M and ending up with only $25K, leading into a bigger conversation about race, culture, and why certain communities feel more pressure to flaunt or financially support extended family. The episode wraps with lighter sports energy: Maxx's first "real" NBA game experience, the Rockets beating the Suns, Kevin Durant hitting free-Chick-fil-A threes, and thoughts on why NBA arenas feel different now. They finish with Harlem Globetrotter myths, half-court shooters, and the realities of elite athleticism — including Joe's legendary story of getting dunked on by Justise Winslow and taking a freshman's nuts straight to the face. A classic Don't Be Sour episode: unfiltered, chaotic, and weirdly insightful.
