Brandon Blewett, author of the best-seller How to Avoid Strangers on Airplanes, just released his witty and insightful take on navigating both literal and professional journeys. While the book hilariously examines the “6 Habits of Highly Annoying Travelers,” it also draws compelling parallels to the workplace—outlining how dealing with delays, turbulence, and pivots helped shape his career. Key talking points Brandon discusses: Knowing when to admit a role, path, or environment isn't the right fit—and finding the courage to move forward. Identifying and fostering mentoring relationships that unlock doors and inspire growth. How mentoring others can organically lead to opportunities. Discovering what truly makes you tick to chart a fulfilling career path. For context, the book has been praised as: "Drawing on his experience as both a seasoned road warrior and M&A executive, Brandon C. Blewett offers a hilariously relatable take on the habits of fellow travelers, transforming the chaos of air travel into a masterclass on navigating personal and professional growth." - Gary Leff, View from the Wing founder and Travel Guru "A rollicking tale from the ultimate frequent flyer. Travel has never been this funny. Do yourself a favor: pack this book in your carry-on." - Bill Keenan, Author of Discussion Materials "How many times have you wanted to turn to the plane seatmate next to you, behind you or across the aisle and say exactly what's on the tip of your tongue? Brandon does it, through a combination of comedy and astute observation...  I never thought a guy with a background in mergers and acquisitions could be so funny. I stand corrected." - Greg Schwem, Author of Text Me If You're Breathing, The Road to Success Goes Through the Salar Bar, and Turning Gut Punches into Punchlines Website: brandonblewett.com Book:  https://amzn.to/4hyTewR LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brandoncblewett/ X: https://x.com/brandonintheair Travel Experiences and Professional Development Michael and Brandon had a conversation about their experiences with travel and how it relates to their professional and personal lives. Brandon, the author of "How to Avoid Strangers on Airplanes," shared his background in frequent travel and his career in consulting and mergers and acquisitions. Michael, who has also traveled extensively, discussed his observations of people's interactions in airports and how these experiences can be compared to the challenges faced in daily life and career. They both agreed that adaptability and flexibility are essential in both travel and professional development. The conversation ended with Michael suggesting that sometimes, one needs to look within to navigate through challenges. Reassessing Career Choices for Fulfillment Michael and Brandon discussed the importance of self-reflection and reassessing one's career choices. Brandon shared his experience of pivoting from tax law to management consulting, realizing that his initial career choice wasn't the best fit for his skill set. Michael, a former accountant, echoed Brandon's sentiments, expressing relief at leaving his accounting career behind. They both agreed that reassessing one's career path is crucial for personal growth and fulfillment. Networking and Mentoring in Careers Michael and Brandon discussed the importance of networking and mentoring in their careers. Brandon shared his experience of not attending a target school for graduate studies and how he relied on mentoring relationships to succeed. He mentioned his involvement in the Ole Miss Mba Mentoring program and how it helped his mentees achieve significant career milestones. Brandon also highlighted the potential for mentoring relationships to come full circle, with mentees potentially offering opportunities in the future. Michael shared his own experience of being a mentor through a program at Walsh College, emphasizing the value of such relationships. Mentoring and Human Aspect Consideration Michael shared his experience of mentoring a student, Brandon, who was going through a challenging time due to his wife's medical school in Chicago. Michael suggested that Brandon transfer to a business school in Chicago to save on rent and be closer to his wife. Brandon eventually followed this advice and graduated. Michael emphasized the importance of considering the human aspect in mentoring, beyond just career goals. He also mentioned that he didn't receive an invitation to continue mentoring Brandon, but he could still mentor in other areas. Student Athlete Experience and Football Brandon shared his experience as a student athlete at Southern Methodist University (SMU), where he attended every home football game and participated in the school's Life after Ball program. He found it rewarding to help student athletes prepare for their future careers, whether in finance or consulting. He also expressed his excitement about SMU's successful football season, which he believes will attract more talented players. Michael agreed, noting that the ease of transferring in college football now aligns with the real world, where taking a year off before starting a new job is not necessary. Leadership, Discipline, and Surrounding Smart People Brandon and Michael discussed the importance of discipline, practice, and competition in achieving success. They highlighted the example of Shaquille O'Neal, who despite being a former athlete, has become a successful businessman. They emphasized the need for leaders to surround themselves with smart and honest people who can provide feedback, even when it's not wanted. They also touched on the importance of being receptive to feedback and advice from others, such as gate agents, pilots, and flight attendants, to navigate challenges like flight delays or cancellations. The conversation concluded with the idea that leaders should strive to be the best in their field and that they deserve the best in the world. Continuous Learning and Personal Growth Brandon and Michael discussed the importance of continuous learning and growth, with Michael emphasizing the value of small daily improvements. They also talked about the potential for personal and professional growth, with Michael suggesting that even a 1% improvement each day could lead to significant progress over time.

Dealing with the adversity that comes from being a race car driver requires resilience and nerves of steel. For Jimmy Blewett, it was a mentality he was born with, following in the footsteps of his hard-nosed grandfather, father, and older brother. On The Dale Jr. Download, Blewett joins Dale Earnhardt Jr. and co-host Mike Davis to discuss growing up in a tough household, racing in the modified ranks, and losing a loved one in motorsports.Hailing from Howell, New Jersey, the Blewetts have long been known for their rough and tumble nature. Jimmy recounts stories of his grandfather John dealing with unruly customers at the yard. He also shares episodes from his childhood following his father John Jr.'s racing career, where they were “banned for life” from many of the east coast's finest race establishments due to pit melees. Jimmy shares that initially his grandfather purchased a racecar for his uncle to drive, hoping that it would keep him out of trouble. But his father was so fascinated with the car that he ended up racing and became quite good. He would be a mainstay in the eastern modified ranks for decades, before retiring in the early 90s. About that time, Jimmy's older brother John III was beginning his own impressive chapter of Blewett family racing history, and it would help pave the way for Jimmy to get on track as well.After getting into go-kart racing at the age of 14, he eventually wanted to build a street stock to run at his home track, Wall Stadium. But Grandpa Blewett disapproved, claiming that his running a street stock would embarrass the family, and one night the car disappeared from the shop, a mystery still unsolved. Through his brother's help, Jimmy got the opportunity to test someone else's car, and he was hooked.The story of how Jimmy came to get his first modified is epic, involving a failed effort to get a loan, having to bring his grandfather on as a co-signer, and winning a car show without an engine. Once he was able to scrape together a functioning race car, his challenges were far from over. His grandfather wanted him to start at the back of every race to gain on-track experience. This helped develop his driving ability, and before long Jimmy was a modified race winner. In fact, in his first two full seasons in modified competition at Wall Stadium, he brought home back-to-back season championships.Jimmy speaks candidly about his relationship with his grandfather and father, and how he felt he spent a lot of his career seeking their approval. He also speaks about the mentorship he received from his older brother John III, and how he helped raise Jimmy in the aftermath of his parent's divorce. The two developed a healthy on-track rivalry, always racing each other for bragging rights of the highest placing Blewett. But as time would tell, no amount of conditioning or hardship could prepare the Blewett family for the loss on the horizon.In August 2007, the Blewett brothers were in competition at Thompson Speedway in Connecticut when Jimmy's right-front tire was punctured, causing a head-on collision with the wall. Mayhem behind him ensued, and John and several other cars piled into Jimmy's wrecked modified. Jimmy was knocked unconscious from the impact of the crash, but upon coming to he heard his brother's screams and jumped out to try and save him. Unfortunately, John's injuries would prove too critical and he passed away that evening at the age of 33. Suddenly, Jimmy's entire life had changed and he had an insurmountable tragedy to deal with.DIRTY AIRBefore Jimmy joins the show, Dale, Mike, Alex, and Hannah chat about: Isla and Nicole's first day of school A weekend magnet fishing excursion Dale's late model race at North Wilkesboro  The exciting NASCAR weekend at Darlington ASKJR presented by XfinityThis week the fans asked questions about: If Dale has a love for pixie sticks like Mike Davis Staying focused in loud environments Favorite dishes for grilling out   To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
