Podcasts about Brotherhood

In this episode of Powerline Podcast, I sit down with Brian "Biscuit" Alston, Artie Garcia, and Todd Wilson from Arizona Public Service for a raw conversation about what really changes when the work stops being just about you and starts being about everyone else.We talk about the moment responsibility shifts, how trust is earned from crews who used to be your peers, and why brotherhood still matters in a trade that demands both accountability and care for the people beside you. This isn't about titles it's about ownership, respect, and carrying the trade forward the right way.The conversation covers mentorship, culture, hard decisions, mistakes, and the unseen weight that comes with being responsible for people, production, and safety. Whether you're still on the tools or stepping into more responsibility, this episode speaks directly to that transition every tradesperson eventually faces.

In this episode, we sit down with Father Hans Jacobse to discuss the crisis facing men today, and why isolation, secrecy, and private struggle are not compatible with the Orthodox life. Fr Hans started the St Paisios Brotherhood where men have been able to have a safe brotherhood for many years now. We explore the role of brotherhood in confronting temptation, forming men for marriage and family, and grounding masculine identity in the life of the Church. This conversation addresses pornography, marriage, community, and the unique role Orthodox brotherhood plays in forming whole men capable of serving their families, parishes, and the world.

Antonio Bonfiglio, GWOT Iraq combat veteran, in Episode 231 of the Transition Drill Podcast explores transition and identity for veterans and first responders navigating the messy middle between “who I was” and “who I'm becoming.” You'll hear Antonio on combat deployments, what it takes to rebuild your life, and working for the Wounded Warrior Project.The episodes begins by naming a lie he's told himself on repeat: that he's tough. Not tough in the “I can handle anything” way, but tough as a posture, a defense he learned early. He grew up the short, sickly kid in a loud, old school household, always trying to prove he belonged. His family story is its own wild thing too: his dad was 30 years older than his mom, and Antonio grew up with three much older half-siblings who were closer in age to his mom than to him.He was born in New Jersey, raised in South Florida, then got pulled back to New Jersey at 13 and hated it. Hockey was his identity in Florida, and when that fell away, he started chasing status in the wrong places. He talks about a going-away party, getting caught with weed when the cops showed up, and how fast one “stupid decision” can change how your parents see you and what doors stay open.In 2003, he enlists in the Marine Corps on an open contract and ships off to Parris Island. He goes from boot camp to Marine Combat Training to combat engineer school, then hits his first unit in November 2003: 2nd Combat Engineer Battalion, 2nd Marine Division. His first deployment is January 2005, was to Fallujah right after Operation Phantom Fury. To the question “where did you grow up,” Antonio often says, “Iraq.” He shares the kind of stories that sound funny until you feel what's underneath them.After the Marines, Antonio runs into the next kind of fight: school, work, relationships, and trying to fit into normal life while still acting like everything's a mission. He talks about using education benefits, clashing with a professor, trying to get hired by the NYPD, and watching his life drift into dead end jobs, partying, gaining weight, and a layoff in the 2009 economic collapse. The throughline isn't perfection. It's the honest look at how a “tough guy” identity can protect you early, then trap you later, until you finally decide to change how you're living.Today he's turned his life around, he's now married and has a couple children. He's been working for the Wounded Warrior Project for the past 6 years, and though he's helping other's who, “raised their right hand” as a physical fitness instructor, he's found his own treatment helping others through their journey. His new passions are sailing and jiu-jitsu, both he found through veteran non-profits.The best podcast for military veterans, police officers, firefighters, and first responders preparing for veteran transition and life after service. Helping you plan and implement strategies to prepare for your transition into civilian life.

For an anxious guy, nothing is more confusing than discovering that your avoidant, seemingly asexual wife was having an affair.No touching. No sex. Years of rejection.And yet… she was sleeping with someone else.I break down a real message from a man in a long-term dead bedroom who discovered his dismissive-avoidant wife had been cheating for years. We dig into anxious vs. avoidant attachment, why this dynamic is so common, and why the affair usually has nothing to do with you lacking masculinity, confidence, or sexual value.If you've ever wondered:“How could she want sex with him but not me?”“What does an avoidant partner actually want?”“Why counseling never seems to work with avoidant spouses?”“Was I just too needy or anxious?”…this video will make things click.We'll also talk about:Why “new” always beats “safe”Why anxious partners are usually the only ones willing to do the workWhy avoidant people struggle in long-term monogamyAnd why this pattern tends to repeat itself again and againIf you're dealing with a dead bedroom, infidelity, or the anxious–avoidant trap, you're not alone.

JOIN THE 7 DAY RESET - ▶️ www.therebuiltman.com/7dayreset Most men struggling with porn addiction aren't stuck because they're weak. They're stuck because they're still believing lies about who they are.   In this powerful solo episode, Coach Frank Rich confronts the hidden self-deceptions that keep high-functioning men trapped in secrecy, shame, and divided identity. From "I'm a good man because I provide" to "I can handle this on my own," Frank exposes the internal narratives that sabotage freedom and shows why real change starts with truth, ownership, and identity transformation.   This is not an episode about behavior management.

"Porn is just stress relief." "At least I'm not cheating." "I'm too busy to work out." "I'll quit when life slows down." "I can handle this on my own." "This is just how I'm wired." "I've tried everything and nothing works." "I hate this part of myself." Each one is confronted with truth, identity reframing, and practical insight.   Who This Episode Is For Men struggling with porn in silence   High-achieving professionals who feel divided internally   Husbands and fathers who want to lead with integrity   Men who are tired of relapse cycles   Anyone who wants freedom through identity transformation, not willpower   About Coach Frank Rich Coach Frank Rich is the founder of The Rebuilt Man and creator of the Reboot Your Life transformation system.

I break down Tyler Durden as a psychological and masculine archetype, not as a role model, but as a warning signal. I explore why Fight Club still resonates with men today, what Tyler gets right about masculinity, and where his version of power goes off the rails. This is a conversation about repression, shadow integration, discipline, and why unintegrated strength turns destructive. The goal is not to become Tyler Durden, but to understand what he represents and integrate it responsibly.SHOW HIGHLIGHTS00:00 - Why Tyler Durden Still Possesses the Male Psyche01:45 - Tyler Durden as a Symptom of Emasculation03:34 - The Hollow Man and Consumer Masculinity05:25 - Tyler Durden as the Shadow Masculine07:14 - The Absence of Masculine Initiation08:05 - Pseudo-Initiation and Self-Destruction09:00 - Pain, Brotherhood, and Fight Club10:53 - Violence vs Contact With Reality12:44 - Comfort, Weakness, and Modern Men13:30 - What Tyler Durden Gets Right15:46 - Power Without Consciousness17:54 - Tyranny, Cult Dynamics, and Shadow Possession20:20 - Project Mayhem and Destructive Identity22:20 - Rage Masculinity in the Modern World23:31 - Integration Over Destruction24:43 - Disciplined Power and True Masculine Initiation25:57 - Tyler Durden as the Alarm, Not the Answer***Tired of feeling like you're never enough?

Filmmaker Christophe Gans (Silent Hill, Brotherhood of the Wolf, Beauty and the Beast) joins Mostly Horror to talk about the power of video games as a storytelling medium, what makes Silent Hill one of the most haunting and enduring horror franchises of all time, and what it was like to return to that world nearly 20 years later with Return to Silent Hill. We explore why Silent Hill's brand of psychological, atmospheric horror continues to resonate, how trauma and guilt shape its monsters, what separates Silent Hill from more action forward horror adaptations, and what truly makes a great monster linger in the mind long after the credits roll.But before venturing into the fog, Sean and Steve break down the latest horror news, and after escaping from Silent Hill, they round things out with their Mostly Horror recommendations of the week. It's a haunting hangout you're not going to want to miss sooo...COME HANG OUT!!!

This episode of Grit Meets Growth is for people who already show up, already have discipline, and are asking a deeper question: why does this still feel harder than it should?We're unpacking how growth eventually outgrows old systems—how habits, routines, and discipline that once worked can start to feel heavy when they're no longer aligned with who you are and where you're going. Rather than adding more structure or white-knuckling through resistance, the conversation reframes discipline as something meant to serve alignment, not identity or ego. We're exploring the shift from early-stage growth (“how much effort can I apply?”) to mature growth (“where is my effort best placed?”), using practical examples around fitness, leadership, rest, brotherhood, and resilience. The core takeaway is clear: discipline matters, but only when it's applied in the right places, supported by honest self-reflection, strong relationships, and the courage to realign instead of forcing what no longer fits.5 key takeaways from this episode of Grit Meets Growth:If it feels heavier than it should, don't add more—realign. Resistance isn't a signal to pile on more discipline; it's feedback that something may be out of alignment.Early growth asks “How much effort can I apply?” Mature growth asks “Where is my effort best placed?” Leverage beats volume. One well-placed habit or action will outperform five done inconsistently.Discipline should create freedom, not become your armor or identity. When discipline exists to protect an image (“I'm the guy who never breaks”), it can stop serving your life and start draining it.Rest, focus, and simplicity are part of discipline—not the opposite of it. Sustainable progress comes from cleaner energy, fewer plugs, and intentional choices about where you spend your effort.Resilience isn't grinding harder—it's recalibrating and moving forward aligned. True resilience means reassessing, realigning, and continuing toward your goals with the right people holding you accountable.One truth: If you have to force everything, you're not lacking discipline—you're out of alignment.

Who is Brian?Brian Parana is no stranger to the turning points that come in midlife. At 42, he's the dedicated husband of his high school sweetheart and the proud father of four—juggling the joys and challenges that come with two high schoolers and two middle schoolers, ages 10 to 15. With 15 years as a self-employed professional and over 23 years in the health industry, Brian has seen firsthand what so many entrepreneurs, business owners, and leaders experience: the demands of life and responsibility often sneak up, and self-care takes a back seat. His journey reflects the universal realization that reaching 40, 45, or 50 doesn't always look or feel as expected—prompting him to help others redefine what thriving in midlife can truly mean.Key Takeaways00:00 Avoiding Midlife Crisis: Enhance Life05:05 Finding Balance Amid Life's Chaos08:04 “Rice 72: Three-Day Fat Loss”11:50 “Developing Habits for Growth”13:30 “1% Improvements for Massive Success”17:32 “Health Choices Over Consequences”20:40 Appreciative Farewell Message_________________________________________________________________________________________________Subscribe to our newsletter and get details of when we are doing these interviews live at www.systemise.me/subscribeFind out more about being a guest at : link.thecompleteapproach.co.uk/beaguestSubscribe to the podcast at https://link.thecompleteapproach.co.uk/podcastHelp us get this podcast in front of as many people as possible.

Five questions over coffee. I have my coffee monkey here. My guest Brian, Coach Brian Piranha is here with me. He has his coffee with espresso, with.Brian Parana [00:00:49]:Some seltzer water and some oat milk.Stuart Webb [00:00:52]:Coach BRIAN that's a brilliant, brilliant recipe. Thank you for that. So Brian is a, is a, is a health and well being expert, an athlete, now a coach who helps business leaders, people who are trying to run their businesses and forget that they need to remain healthy to run their business, do better with both. So Coach Ryan, welcome to It's Not Rocket Science. Five questions over coffee. Looking forward to this conversation and really looking forward to hearing how you can help us.Brian Parana [00:01:27]:I'm excited to be here. I'm looking forward to our five questions and the insights that I can bring, the value and some ideal takeaways for our guests that are listening in.Stuart Webb [00:01:37]:That's what we want to hear. So let's start with that first question. I like to always start with just give us a little bit of an oversight of the sort of person you're trying to help. What are the problems that they have in their life that might help them identify that you're currently talking to them, right.Brian Parana [00:01:55]:What happens when we reach our mid-40s? There's that term of a midlife crisis, right. I'm 42, I've married my high school sweetheart, we're 19 years in. We have four kids, two high schoolers, two middle schools, three boys and girls, 15 to 10. And I've been self employed for 15 years and been in the health industry for 23 or something. I've seen it time and again. Is that people, business owners, entrepreneurs, leaders, everyone ends up running into this at some point where the responsibilities of their life caught up to them. In a sense, they realize they're not taking care of themselves and their body. And 40, 45, 50 isn't what was expected when they got there, right.Brian Parana [00:02:44]:They're on their way to retirement or they got money in the bank or the house or whatever this stuff, but when they see themselves in the mirror, they just their waistlines expanding. They don't have the confidence in their, their workloads that they once had. There's fatigue, the lack of productivity. They feel half a step behind or maybe in one or two instead. And that's the type of person that I'm coming to the marketplace to meet is to get that priority. Let's not have a midlife crisis where we potentially disrupt some things in life. Let's actually Enhance what life has and be even more productive by taking care of yourself first to then have the energy, the resources, the capacity to keep pace with all the responsibilities that you are now in charge of.Stuart Webb [00:03:35]:So let's talk a little bit about maybe there's somebody out there at the moment thinking, hey, this guy, this guy's talking to me. What do you think they'd be able to recognize in terms of the things they tried? You know, the health kicks that go on, the act, the diet, which constantly never seems to work. I mean, they may even be finding the soul at the moment, sitting there looking at yet another diet book or even some other ways of trying to enhance this. And I think what you're trying to say is that's not always all of the solution, is it?Brian Parana [00:04:06]:No, no, definitely not. Oftentimes we've been taught through marketing, through just literal time for, or the, the, the diet industry really started in the 1980s or so and 90s and, and continued on if you, I, I grew up in that and has infiltrated every single person that I am in association with and what I, who I've worked with for years, restriction. There's these hard protocols that they have to follow. It often lines up with more of a leader type personality where they have to feel that the grind, the hustle. They have things that have to be hard. Those are, they have to cut out, restrict all that. And I've been in a five pound weight range for decades. Obviously it's what I do by profession and I should look and be the part to lead those people.Brian Parana [00:05:05]:But with four kids, with self employment, with all these, these obstacles that just show up in everyday life, there is a way to find some balance. To have some ice cream after a kid's soccer game or after a school event, or have a small sliver of cake at a birthday party because I mean, what weekend do people not have birthdays, especially if they have four kids or something, right? There's just always those opportunities to potentially fall off track and then next, you know, we'll start again on Monday. Well, Stuart, today's Wednesday or Tuesday. It's Tuesday that we're recording this. There's a lot of sloppiness that can, that can be created there and cause you to be setting yourself back a significant amount. We need to find a level of balance of, with some flexibility, some moderation in a way that creates a lifestyle that they can actually live. What we do in two weeks, we do in two months, we do in two years. And finding that balance is so important.Brian Parana [00:06:04]:And that that's where I meet people every single day.Stuart Webb [00:06:09]:And I think you've got a very valid point then Brian, because you know, it's if, if you are having to force yourself into something, if you're telling yourself that you can only achieve this by constant denial, you can only do this by having to go to the gym when you don't really feel, feel like it because you've got other concerns, you've got the family to worry about things like that. It becomes more and more difficult to actually stick with something like this, doesn't it? I mean if the only time you ever get any pleasure is when you get that little bit of ice cream or that small amount of cake at a birthday party and suddenly you deny that, it just becomes impossible to stick to anything that you really, really want to do. You have to link it to something that's more than that, right?Brian Parana [00:06:50]:It's just same thing with business. If you have to grind to grow a business, it's going to fail at some point because whether the motivation, the willpower, the lack of consistently putting out or say a high marketing budget, if you one, one or five months go by and you haven't produced the outcomes to pay for that, now you're in the red and things aren't going well for the business because it's at such a high demand of say accuracy or focus or the ROI needs to be right on point there.Stuart Webb [00:07:26]:So I've got a really. You've got a special offer that I think that the audience is going to be really interested in. This I will be putting into our vault. So if you go to www.systemize.me free stock you, you'll get the details of exactly how Brian can help this coach. Brian, tell us how can you help us to get through some of these problems?Brian Parana [00:07:52]:Yeah, well say the free stuff thing, right? I have a.Stuart Webb [00:07:56]:That's the one. Anything we valuable offers. Valuable free stuff. That's what we want to give to people here. Pay it forward.Brian Parana [00:08:04]:We have a, a we're in the, the mega information, right? Maybe I could coin that. The mega information Time of our lives, right? And with ChatGPT and all you can get a meal plan, you can get a workout, you can do all these things. And what I have, my free stuff would be what I call the rice 72. It's just a three day fat loss protocol that has food, that has nutrition, that has some mindset things to help reset from the brain. Because it all starts here. And in that you get step by step specific things that we know and we've heard so much. But the point is it has to be done. So whether there's email accountability, there's actual text engagement with me as well.Brian Parana [00:08:52]:If you do get the free thing, the Rise 72, you'll be able to have some level of accountability. And that's what I want to bring into my world to. To others is create an experience, a transformative experience. Not just, hey, here's the meal plan that you're supposed to eat, but it's got to be more because nobody I the one of two things. I'm busy. Every single person, I think has always said that. And they usually say it's in all cats B, U S Y with multiple exclamation points after. That's how they describe their life.Brian Parana [00:09:27]:And I get it. I'm busy too. But I still have found a way to prioritize my health.Stuart Webb [00:09:32]:Yeah.Brian Parana [00:09:33]:So let's find a way to do that for you. The other thing is that they. So they're. They're busy and they always want to just jump in with. With both heels, in a sense. And we have to find those small little pivot points to again create that sustainability. And through talking with thousands of people over the last 20 years, so many conversations, we need to. To be able to do the things that we already know we need to do.Brian Parana [00:10:09]:And that's a high level of radical accountability I want to bring to.Stuart Webb [00:10:14]:Yeah. And it's about finding that way of, as you say, prioritizing using the. Using triggers. You know, one of the things I've often heard that.Brian Parana [00:10:22]:Yes.Stuart Webb [00:10:23]:One of the great ways of sort of building your. You're building this sort of thing in as you're talking about mindset is linking it to pleasure. You know, yes, you're going to go for a, for a run, but you're going to go for a run in the outside and listen to your favorite podcast or whatever it is, this podcast. So. And so you actually sort of. And you, you. You have to set yourself up with. The only time I listen to the podcast is when I'm going for the run or when I'm going for the walk.Stuart Webb [00:10:49]:And so that you get that sort of mindset shift. If it's not something hard, it becomes a pleasure to do some of this stuff.Brian Parana [00:10:55]:Right, Exactly. And, and that's a huge gap where people are. An example would be, say, the 75 hard. It's a very strong reset accountability protocol where you have to work out twice a day, you got to drink a gallon of water, you have some you got to read a book. All these things are great. Let's do 75 hard on your own terms. That makes it so that on day 76 or day 2000, you're still doing the things. Yeah, it's my job to help figure that out.Stuart Webb [00:11:28]:Brilliant. Love it. Brian, you've gone to the stage where you understand exactly how this works. Was there a book or a program or something that actually sort of allowed you to understand how to get that sort of mindset, that body work, everything sort of coming together, which is how you explain it to people.Brian Parana [00:11:50]:The book that comes off top of my head is there's so many personal development things I've done. I actually went to Tony Robbins seminars, I was a fire walker, I did it twice. And so many other different certifications and all that. I guess when it all comes said and done, we, we've heard it again a million times. Is that the, the James Clears is a really easy that everyone we know atomic habits. How do we build habits 1% better at a time? We take these small incremental, consistent steps to get us and we consistently keep doing that. And, and the other thing is to understand the analogy that is used in there as well. An ice cube melting at 22 degrees, it's not going to melt.Brian Parana [00:12:36]:At 23, it's not going to melt. At 29, it's not melting. At 32, it might start to melt. At 33, it's melting, it will take a while. At 40, it's melted. It's definitely on its way. And today in Miami in July, it's done melted. You know, the moment it touched the ground, even maybe on the way down to the ground, it's already evaporated because it's so hot.Brian Parana [00:13:00]:And in the beginning of these changes, even just in business, we can tie it back to business since that's who's listening. In the beginning of the business, it was so small and incremental and you didn't see those, those 1 degree changes over time. But then you built that momentum and all of a sudden you have a business with employees and it's successful and all of a sudden you're wow, I don't have time for myself. But that 1% better is going to be the key thing to build consistency into your life.Stuart Webb [00:13:30]:I'm a, I'm a great fan of somebody you may or may not have heard of a guy called David Brailsbridge who was the coach of the Great Britain cycling team. And he was a very great fan of sort of 1% improvements and he was looking at 1% improvement, improvements all the time, which took the British cycling team to the top of the world. And the reason that he did it was because he was looking at tiny, tiny changes every single time they raced, to the extent that he started sending the team out to meetings with their own pillow so that they got a slightly better night's sleep the night before they raced. It really does take tiny, tiny changes to produce a massive result, doesn't it? But it has to be consistent. It has to be continuous. You can't just do it once and then hope it's all gone back to it. You know, it's gonna be easy from that. You make that tiny change, but you have to continue to make that change.Stuart Webb [00:14:22]:You need the accountability to do it.Brian Parana [00:14:24]:Yeah. KPIs for ROIs, right? In the business world, we have those and these SOPs to get to the ROIs that we want to go, but it has to be done every day. Yeah. Same thing in our body. We need to. These are basic. We need to move so much. We need to drink our water, get enough sleep.Brian Parana [00:14:46]:We need to eat healthy food. Those are basic tenets of taking care of yourself and living in a healthy body that's energetic and you feel confident in and you fit in your clothes in. But we let distraction take us away.Stuart Webb [00:15:01]:Yeah, yeah, yeah. Brian, there must be one question that you're left at the moment thinking he's still hanging on to the really critical one, that one question that we need to sort of get to get to, and I should ask it, but I obviously don't know what it is. So what is the question that you would have liked me to have asked by now, which I obviously haven't. And then obviously, as you know the answer, you better answer it for us, otherwise it'll never get answered.Brian Parana [00:15:27]:I thought long and hard on this. And what is the true ROI of taking care of yourself and your health?Stuart Webb [00:15:34]:Oh, that is a good question. I like that.Brian Parana [00:15:37]:Huh? I thought about it a little bit. Make sure it was juicy. What is it? People at first just think, oh, I'm at a healthy body weight, or I can. I don't fall asleep in the middle of the day anymore. Or I can be productive at work, or I can go one meeting to the next to the next, or when I come home, I can engage with my family and children. Those are all really important things. But we. One thing is.Brian Parana [00:16:03]:Is say the confidence that you have, if you aren't in a healthy body, then you don't necessarily have the confidence that you think that you're portraying when you go into a meeting, right. Even this is a good old Tony Robbins example. But I'm standing here, but I can take a big deep breath in and, and I can get up here. All of a sudden I'm, I'm just 1% taller in a sense, but I am. It's been multiplied. It's 10x in my energy flow, my breath. I can get oxygen in my lungs and I can start to think clearly. And people notice that and they see it, they can feel that confidence and that energy coming from.Brian Parana [00:16:48]:And, and you don't know that you're walking around like this all day. You might feel the same, but it's, there's a difference. So what does that mean? That means that we can, if the true ROI of a healthy body is better connection with those around in your, your, your family circle, your social circles, how you show up at work and lead. We want that lead. What type of ability are you to be able to produce deals and make things happen in your career? These are all big, big ROIs that can happen. And you don't. The, the thing that you don't see. And I love sharing this with my four kids, especially my oldest right now, because he's teenage for sure, at 15, almost 16.Brian Parana [00:17:32]:But you choose your actions, but you don't choose your consequences. Therefore, if you're not taking care of your health in the 40s, you might have a heart attack by your 50. Hey, I'm so glad that you're retiring as a millionaire or whatever, but you're going to spend all of it on health care and assisted living and having someone wipe your butt because, because you have a disease, right? We have, everyone has lots of problems until they have a significant health problem, then we only have one problem. And everything else fades quickly because you have diabetes, you've had a heart attack, there's a stroke, there's cancer, there's all these, these things that are trying to kill us. And health is the most easy, say, almost free thing to do outside of your time. That you can get a huge ROI for now, but also into the future.Stuart Webb [00:18:24]:That's absolutely brilliant. And if nobody, if nobody takes anything away from this, they should take away the fact that doing something for their future is actually looking after their kids, their grandkids, their great grandkids. You know, you need to be around for those. I'm going to go back. You need to come on to systemize me free. Go find out about what Brian has been talking about, talking to us about today and make sure that you understand exactly how somebody like Brian can really help you to focus, to make sure that you are available to the future. And I'm going to put in my own little request to you, please. I send out an email just, just once a week with who's coming up on the podcast and you can come on and watch the live stream, ask questions.Stuart Webb [00:19:15]:If you want to please come onto the newsletter list. You go to Systemize Me subscribe and that gets you onto the newsletter list and you'll get an email just enabling you to listen to such brilliant advice from people like Coach Brian. Brian, thank you so much for spending a few minutes with us. Really appreciate you taking the time and if I take anything else away from this, I'm going to go and find a way now of going back out for Cycle Ride, which is something I haven't done for a while and that will help me to sort of just live a little bit longer. Yep.Brian Parana [00:19:49]:So, you know, wrapping it up, I have the, the free thing that I'll be given with Stewart is the right 72. It's a three day fat loss protocol. Men and women can do it. And then what the call to rise is is it's a hundred day fat loss transformational experience that really focuses on weekly challenges, quarterly assessment. There are small cohorts of. This is more of a men's focus group called the Brotherhood where we have a small knit group of people, men that are like minded, that want to thrive in their health too along with all these other areas in their life. And, and it's, it's again getting out of just information but actual doing the things because you're in a. It's a catalyst for transformation and that's what the call to rise is.Brian Parana [00:20:34]:So answer your call to rise to better health and a better quality of life.Stuart Webb [00:20:40]:Right. I love it. Thank you so much and I really appreciate you spending a bit of time for us. Go get that stuff. Thank you. Bye bye.

Everyone asks what the SledSend Team Rider Program actually is — so we finally break it down. This episode isn't about snowmobile stories or riding tips. It's a behind-the-scenes look at why the SledSend Team Rider Program exists, who it's for, and what makes it fundamentally different from traditional sponsorships or ambassador programs. We talk about: Why this isn't a sponsorship — and never will beThe 80% life / 20% sled philosophy. What the weekly structure actually looks like. The standards required to be part of the program. Who this is for — and who it isn't. If you've ever been curious about the SledSend Brotherhood, or wondered whether it's something you should apply for, this episode brings clarity and context.

Yesterday, the U.S. government formally designated three foreign “chapters” of the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organizations. Secretary of State Marco Rubio described them “the opening actions of an ongoing, sustained effort to thwart Muslim Brotherhood chapters' violence and destabilization wherever it occurs."  For the moment, though, other chapters and the Brotherhood's “mother movement,” remain free to pursue their stated goal of waging a “grand jihad to destroy Western civilization from within.”  Unfortunately, every jihadist on the planet, and every one of their – and their allies' – still-undesignated “support networks,” will perceive that status as proof they will succeed.  And, according to Islam's toxic sharia doctrine, when jihadists sense weakness in their enemies, they must redouble efforts to make them “feel subdued.” That's a formula for much more, and terrifying, violence in America. We must ban the Brotherhood now.  This is Frank Gaffney.

When Todd Carmichael and J.P. Iberti met at a grunge concert in Seattle in the 1980s, they were an unlikely pair. But they shared a love for great coffee, and the two friends began to dream about opening a cafe and premium roastery that would produce coffee at a higher quality than anything in the U.S. at the time. A few years later, Todd and J.P. co-founded La Colombe in Philadelphia, and went on to play a leading role in the third wave of specialty coffee in the U.S. Today, their coffee drinks are sold in stores across the country, and in 2023, La Colombe was acquired by Chobani for $900M.

Sermon Summary: Joshua – Session 12 (Choose This Day Whom You Will Serve)   1. God Keeps Every Promise As Joshua concludes his leadership, the sermon emphasizes that not one word God spoke failed. Israel possessed the land exactly as God promised. Victory, rest, and provision came not through Israel's strength, but because the Lord fought for them. 2. Yielding Determines What We Experience God's promises were available to all, but only fully realized by those who yielded in faith and obedience. Refusing to yield does not cancel God's promises, but it causes people to miss out on what God intends for them. 3. Brotherhood and Unity Matter The distribution of land to the Levites and the resolution of the altar conflict show the importance of loving God first and loving one another. Misunderstandings were handled through communication, humility, and unity rather than division, modeling how God's people should relate to one another. 4. God Alone Is the Source of Victory Joshua reminds Israel repeatedly that they did not win battles on their own. God gave them land they did not labor for, cities they did not build, and vineyards they did not plant. Pride leads to downfall, but humility keeps God's favor. 5. Compromise Leads to Spiritual Traps Joshua warns that clinging to the nations around them—or their gods—would lead to bondage. Friendship with the world results in snare, sorrow, and spiritual loss. God does not remove worldly “friends”—only enemies—so believers must choose separation wisely. 6. A Clear Call to Commitment Joshua issues a decisive challenge: “Choose this day whom you will serve.” Everyone serves something. If not the Lord, it will be idols—self, possessions, power, or culture. True faith requires a deliberate choice to serve the Lord wholeheartedly. 7. Serving God Is Not Casual Joshua explains that God is holy and jealous, not tolerant of divided loyalty. Forgiveness is found only in Him; there is no salvation or restoration apart from God. Allegiance cannot be transferred without consequence. 8. The Word of God Endures Forever The sermon reinforces that everything else fades—nations, wealth, achievements—but God's Word stands forever. Building life on anything else leads to loss, while obedience to God brings lasting fruit. 9. Final Charge Joshua's life ends with a testimony of faithfulness, and the people renew their covenant with God. The message closes by calling believers to: Put away competing idols Yield fully to God Walk in obedience and sincerity Serve the Lord with all their heart The sermon concludes with this central truth: God will always be faithful—our responsibility is to choose Him and remain yielded to His will.

Viva New Vegas! Ben Lindbergh and Daniel Chin climb into their T-45 armor to analyze the fourth episode of the second season of 'Fallout,' "The Demon in the Snow." After sharing their overall takes on the episode, they check in on the Vault dwellers, Maximus and the Brotherhood, and Coop/the Ghoul and Lucy and examine how the show's core characters and factions are reacting to the stress of wasteland life. They also reflect on the Brotherhood's lax security, the deathclaw design, and 'Fallout' lore revelations before discussing what they'd like to see in the second half of the season. Finally, Ben talks to Joe Sanabria, the lead artist for 'Fallout: New Vegas,' about bringing the game's look to life, how the Strip translated to TV, and how 'New Vegas' would be different if it were made (or remade) today.Intro (0:00)‘Fallout' Season 2, Episode 4 reactions (2:55)Vault dwellers recap (5:27)Maximus and the Brotherhood (19:45)Coop/the Ghoul and Lucy (33:58)Interview with Joe Sanabria (1:01:11)Outro (1:29:42)Host: Ben LindberghGuests: Daniel Chin and Joe SanabriaProducer: Devon RenaldoAdditional Production Support: Arjuna Ramgopowell Learn more about your ad choices.

This episode is a radioactive cocktail of drugs, drama, and absolute chaos — and we loved every second. In Fallout Season 2, Episode 4 (Claws for Concern), Lucy spirals into addiction-fueled badassery, Maximus launches a Brotherhood civil war, and the Ghoul confronts a nightmare straight out of Vault-Tec's darkest vault.Brandon & Chanel break down the madness:Lucy becomes a med-junkie and goes full John Wick on greaser ghouls at New Vegas' gatesThe Ghoul remembers the deathclaw from the Alaskan Front — and now it's backTheir staredown in the Strip's ruins is visually stunning — practical sets, not CGI sludgeMan of the hour: Maximus refuses to kill, outs himself as a ghoul-sympathizer, and starts a civil warThaddeus's turn as “fake Xander” is the funniest thing in the wastelandVault drama heats up: Steph's dark Canadian past is revealed, Reg hoards water, and Woody reports… to StephNorm plays dumb with thawed-out Vault-Tec cultists while secretly learning the truthA deathclaw looms, a Brotherhood airship crashes, and Lucy is this close to getting eatenThis episode doesn't rely on spectacle — it earns every laugh, gasp, and “oh shit” moment. Whether it's child labor satire, drug-induced courage, or ghouls turning soft for dogs, Fallout remains the most exciting thing on TV. Brandon & Chanel are here to break it down like Maximus breaking Brotherhood code.

Fallout Season 2 continues the Fallout TV show on Amazon Prime Video, picking up after the events of Season 1 and expanding the story of the wasteland, the Vaults, and the major factions of the Fallout universe.

We also discuss production updates, casting rumors, and how Season 2 could change the scope and tone of the Fallout series moving forward. With the Fallout TV show becoming a major Amazon adaptation, Fallout Season 2 faces high expectations from longtime fans and new viewers alike. This breakdown focuses on where Fallout Season 2 could be headed, how the show may handle canon, and what the next chapter of the Fallout series might look like.

JOIN THE 7 DAY RESET - ▶️ www.therebuiltman.com/7dayreset   In this powerful and uncompromising episode of The Rebuilt Man Podcast, Frank Rich delivers a direct wake-up call to men who are tired of repeating the same cycle with porn year after year.   This episode isn't about motivation. It's about decision.   Coach Frank lays out 26 compelling reasons why 2026 must be the year men stop tolerating a habit they've already outgrown and finally step into freedom, discipline, and self-respect.   Rather than focusing on surface-level tactics, this episode goes deeper, exposing how porn erodes identity, confidence, ambition, presence, and purpose. Frank challenges listeners to stop negotiating with their old selves and start rebuilding their lives from the inside out.   The episode closes with a clear, actionable path forward, introducing the philosophy behind Reboot Your Life and the power of the Rebuilt Man Brotherhood, where identity is rebuilt through structure, accountability, and brotherhood.   If you're done "trying" and ready to become a different man, this episode draws a clear line in the sand.     What You'll Learn in This Episode Why this episode is meant to wake you up, not hype you up   How waiting "one more year" reinforces the identity you're trying to escape     Why secrecy, not lack of willpower is destroying your confidence   How porn numbs ambition, discipline, and presence   Why shame thrives in isolation and collapses in brotherhood   How identity, not motivation, drives lasting freedom   Why relapse isn't failure, but feedback exposing missing structure   What it actually takes to stop managing addiction and start rebuilding your life   Why freedom isn't optional, it's your God-given design       Key Takeaways This episode is not here to motivate you, it's here to wake you up   Most men fail because they keep negotiating with a version of themselves they've outgrown   Every day you delay is a vote for the man you're trying to leave behind   Secrecy erodes confidence; integrity rebuilds it   You were created to confront discomfort, not cope through escape   Identity is shaped by repetition, what you repeatedly do becomes who you believe you are   Shame thrives in secrecy; freedom begins when the cycle ends   Isolation feeds addiction; brotherhood breaks it   Relapse is feedback, not failure, it reveals missing structure   Freedom is your design; bondage is not your destiny       Next Step: Start Rebuilding Today   If this episode hit you, don't do what you've always done, feel inspired and go back to isolation.   Coach Frank invites you to take your first real step forward by joining the FREE 7 Day Porn Reset, where you'll get:   Clear daily structure Brotherhood-based accountability Identity-focused tools to break the cycle A proven starting point into the Rebuilt Man system 2026 doesn't need another attempt. It needs a decision.  

This episode didn't go the way we planned, in the best way.Instead of a traditional interview, Dr. Steve Perry steps in with the kind of mentoring questions that don't let you hide behind “next month,” “next season,” or “when I'm ready.” It becomes a real-time reflection on fear, purpose, leadership, and what it costs, personally and professionally, when we hold back what we're here to give.Dr. Perry reminds us: our students are living right now. And we don't get to “take a day off” from the responsibility of showing up with our full presence, because we don't know what moment might change a child's life.In this episode, we cover:Why “tomorrow” can be a socially acceptable form of fearThe difference between the people you care about and the people you're trying to impressHow bullying and old wounds show up as hesitation, second-guessing, and “playing small” in adulthoodWhat it means to live the advice you give young people(0:00) Dr. Perry's opening reminder: “Get home safely.” Why educators can't “take a period off.”(0:32) Ashanti sets the tone: this is a different kind of episode—more reflection, more mentoring(5:12) “Are you sure you're going to be here in 2026?” Mortality, urgency, and getting present(8:21) Who are you worried about… and why do they have so much power?(15:44) Show intro: the loneliness of being a male educator & why this space exists(16:22) Dr. Perry's mission: education, power, and fighting for Black and Latin students(22:24) The fear behind staying quiet—and what it's costing(31:22) “If a kid came to you with a phone full of songs…” Living your own advice(42:06) Internal bullies, exaggerated fears, and the stories we let run our lives(46:24) “Why not now? Why not today?” The challenge to stop hiding behind phases(48:18) Dr. Perry: kids are living now—your presence might be the moment that changes everything(50:51) “Release the first video.

"When something real comes up in your life, who do you talk to about it?"  Men don't lose their edge because they stop trying—they lose it because they try to do everything alone. Brotherhood creates a space where men are forced to see themselves clearly, confront patterns that no longer serve them, and stay anchored to purpose when life gets unstable. Growth doesn't happen in isolation. It happens when men are challenged, reflected, and held to a higher standard by other men who care enough to tell the truth.  Eric Axelrod talks about his experience with men's work. How men's circles expose blind spots around anger, listening, leadership, and emotional discipline. Brotherhood isn't about advice—it's about being asked the questions that lead you to the answers you need, accountability, and seeing yourself in other men's trials and triumphs.  Professionally, Eric is the founder of Pinnacle Search Professionals, a recruiting firm for the Regulated Industry. He built his company around a simple principle: depth beats breadth. By working within a clear niche and only taking on searches he knows can be filled well, Eric emphasizes discipline, clarity, and follow-through—values that mirror his approach to leadership and men's work. He's deeply involved in men's initiation work and leadership development, helping preserve and carry forward transformational men's training. His focus is on building strong masculine communities where men develop clarity, emotional control, purpose, and resilience—skills that compound over time and impact families, businesses, and future generations.  Learn more & connect:   https://pinnaclesearchprofessionals.com/  Also in this episode:  Justin Sterling Men's Weekend https://www.sterling-institute.com/mens-weekend  Power vs. Force by Dr. David R.

Episode 73 kicks off our first show of 2026—and it starts where it all began. Josh and Darius reflect on nearly 22 years of friendship, going all the way back to being initiated together in TKE in 2004, and how that brotherhood still shapes who they are today. Darius shares a fun historical nugget about Samuel Colt before diving into a big personal milestone: starting the year with his first USPSA competition and how competition shooting fits into his goals for 2026. He also breaks down his competition mindset, his rig setup, and what's helped him get fast and efficient out of the holster. Josh talks gear—covering Gideon Optics on his new DERYA TM22 and his BRN-180, plus what's coming next with upcoming build series. The guys also tease a budget 2011 build planned for later this year, sharing early ideas and what they want to prove with it. As always, the conversation is filled with laughs, real talk, and ideas about improving—not just as shooters, but as friends, husbands, fathers, and men heading into a new year focused on growth and consistency.

Welcome to 2026, brothers.This episode is a return to the foundations. A reset. A reorientation to what this work has always been about.As we move into a new year, it's easy to get pulled toward advanced concepts, elevated language, and high-level spiritual ideas. But real mastery doesn't begin at the top. It begins at the beginning. And in this episode, we go back to the core principles of cognitive mastery, awakening, and the Alpha State.At the heart of this conversation is a simple but profound framework: the three worlds. The outer world, the inner world, and the energetic world.The outer world is the physical world. It's the world we all share. Bodies, money, relationships, environments, circumstances, results. It is neutral. It is dense. It is obvious. Science understands this world well because it is observable and measurable.The inner world is the mental world. Your thoughts. Your feelings. Your narratives. Your conditioning. This world is private. No one has access to it but you. And yet, this inner world is the cause of how you experience the outer world. Your thoughts generate feelings. Feelings drive actions. Actions create results. And those results reinforce the thoughts. This is the universal truth. This is the Model of Alignment.The energetic world is the most subtle of all. It's your aura. Your spiritual blueprint. The field you move through and leave behind as you interact with people, places, money, opportunity, and life itself. Most men have very little conscious access to this layer, not because it isn't real, but because it is quiet. Subtle. Working behind the scenes.In this episode, I explain how all three of these worlds are happening simultaneously. They are not separate. They are integrated into one unified human experience. And above all three is the Alpha State. The watcher. Consciousness itself. The unified awareness that sees all three worlds clearly without being trapped inside any of them.This is where awakening begins.Not by becoming something new. Not by self-improvement or self-judgment. But by remembering what you've always been.The first step in this process is kindergarten-level simple and lifelong profound: separating thoughts from facts. Over and over again. Until it becomes second nature. Until you can clearly see the difference between the neutral outer world and the stories you're running about it.This is why the Brotherhood exists. It is the entry point. The foundation. The place where men begin the awakening process by mastering the basics: buffering, relationships, money mindset, and the Model of Alignment. This is where you learn to see the program you've been running and consciously choose a new one.In this episode, I also introduce what's coming in 2026, including deeper work inside the Academy and my own Impossible Goal for the year, which I'll be updating throughout the podcast as it unfolds.This episode is an invitation.An invitation to remember who you are.An invitation to step into the Alpha State.An invitation to begin again—properly, deliberately, and consciously.Welcome to 2026, brothers.Elevate your Alpha.

In this Friday Field Notes episode, Ryan Michler delivers a direct and uncompromising message: success never happens by accident. He challenges listeners to confront the ways they may be drifting through life, reacting to circumstances rather than intentionally leading themselves. Ryan explores how comfort, avoidance, and distraction quietly compound into years of lost potential, and contrasts that with the strength and freedom created through discipline, structure, and brotherhood. This episode calls men to choose hardship on purpose, define their standards, and begin taking directional action immediately instead of waiting for motivation to arrive.
