Podcasts about grinding

Als einer der wenigen Release-Titel für die Switch 2 habe ich mich an das Remaster des 3DS Klassikers von 2012 gewagt, ganz in liebevoller Erinnerung an klassische JRPGs, welche es auf dem 3DS zu Hauf gab. Und Bravely Default ist definitiv ein sehr guter Kandidat, der dieses Genre super repräsentiert. Die doch recht klassische Story um die Wiedererweckung der vier Elementarkristalle wird verpackt in eine Oberwelt, Dungeons und Städte, gepaart mit Rundenkämpfen, Sammeln von Items und Job-Grinding. Die Jobs sind hier elementar, denn sie repräsentieren die Klassen. Jeder unserer vier Charaktere kann jeden der 24 Job lernen, allerdings müssen wir erst den dazugehörigen Asterisken einsammeln und dieser verbirgt sich meist hinter einen recht anspruchsvollen Bosskampf. Danach müssen wir die Jobs auch noch leveln, was Grinding erfordert, allerdings haben wir auch einen Nebenjob, welcher uns zumindest die Fähigkeiten eines bereits erlernten gibt, sodass wir auch ein wenig nebenbei leveln können. Aber dieses Leveln gehört irgendwie auch zu klassischen JRPGs dazu. Wichtig zu erwähnen sind die QoL-Features, wie eine anpassbare Zufallskampf-Rate oder Autokämpfe, welche dem Spiel gut tun. Überflüssig sind hingegen die neuen Minispiele,welche die Switch 2 Mausfunktion unbedingt reinbringen wollen. Insgesamt ist dieses Remaster aber vor allem für Neulinge ein sehr schönes JRPG!

BIO: Blair LaCorte is a dynamic executive with experience across entertainment, aviation, AI, aerospace, consulting, and more.STORY: Blair shares three catastrophic investment failures and the life-altering lessons that rewired his approach to wealth.LEARNING: Chase knowledge, not hype, and don't let greed hijack logic. Invest with friends only if you're willing to lose both. “The worst investment that you can make is to put your time into something that you don't enjoy or that you know is not going to work out.”Blair LaCorte Guest profileBlair LaCorte is a dynamic executive with experience across entertainment, aviation, AI, aerospace, consulting, and more. He has held CEO roles at companies such as PRG, XOJET, and Autodesk, and led startups to successful IPOs. Currently, he's training as an astronaut for Virgin Galactic and is Vice Chairman at the Buck Institute.Worst investment everFresh out of college at 22, Blair met a smooth-talking investor who flaunted his “lifetime monthly checks” from an oil well. Blinded by dollar signs and zero industry knowledge, he poured his savings into a single well.Blair ignored basic due diligence, diversification, and warnings about low-quality reserves. It was all about greed. He had seen someone make money where they got paid every month for the rest of their life, as long as the well lasted.The greed kept him in and kept him investing in the well. At the end of the day, the oil was of below-average quality and was not as much as they thought it would be. Blair's ignorance caused him a 100% loss. The well underperformed, and his greed trapped him in a sinking ship. Blair even commissioned a plaque to memorialize his shame—a daily reminder that “easy money” is a predator in disguise.Burning $200k and a friendshipAfter Blair's first IPO success in 1999, his roommate pitched him on Coffee.com—a visionary play on single-origin beans (decades before it became trendy). Blair invested early, then panicked as losses mounted. When the roommate begged for more capital, he refused because he did not think it would succeed, but guilt kept him from cutting ties.After a while, the startup imploded. Worse? Blair's friend never spoke to him again. He learned the hard truth from this unwise investment: mixing money with friendship is financial suicide.The $59.50 ego taxAt the peak of the dot-com boom, Blair had just scored a top-tier IPO. His broker urgently called and advised him to sell immediately at $59.50 as he believed the boom would not last. But pride convinced him that the broker was just chasing commissions.Blair held stubbornly as the stock bled out to $2. He lost $570,000 in vaporized gains. Blair's ego had bet against reality, and reality won.Lessons learnedChase knowledge, not hype, and don't let greed hijack logic. If you don't understand how the money is made, you're the exit strategy for someone else.Friends + money = atomic risk. Invest with friends only if you're willing to lose both on the same day.Pride is the silent portfolio killer. The market doesn't care about your ego, and exit signals don't negotiate.Your time is your ultimate currency. Grinding your years into a dying venture to ‘prove a point' is the costliest investment of all.Andrew's takeawaysMacro trumps micro. Brilliant ideas fail if they're too early or too late. Always ask: “Is the world ready for this?”Preserve capital like your life depends on it. A young you can risk time; an older you must protect...

 My Date With ‘Miss Big Kahuna'Teen genius lures Sarah Stevens to the water park.Based on a post by edstevens94301. Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories.Westville High - The Water ParkMy name is Doug Waldorf, and I'm an Evil genius.Not seriously, I'm an evil genius. My IQ was tested at 195, that's the genius part. And I'm definitely evil. I'm the son of Huey Waldorf, whom you probably haven't ever heard of. Other people call him "Roach Man." Sound familiar?Mom and dad divorced last May. Prior to that I occasionally heard some explicit arguments about dad's unsuccessful sex acts. Seems dad has a healthy interest in many and frequent sexual expressions that mom has no interest in, whatsoever.No only does she not want to experiment in anal stuff; She calls it sodomy and preaches condemnation on him for even begging her for it. Mom's hardly religious, but she is very full of herself and obsessed with her social image.The best ones I overheard were the negotiations for blowjobs. Damn, my dad was desperate. The stuff he tried to trade for coming in her mouth! But never would she ever deep throat him; and hell no; she ain't swallowing that nasty snot for nothing!She didn't respect him, either. I guess I couldn't blame him for giving up on her. And at least he should more class than Danny's dad, down the street from us. See, Danny's dad got caught screwing the hot babysitter. The whole neighborhood knows about that stuff.No, my dad gave up a lot just to walk away as quickly as he could.My only demand was that he take me with him.After my parent's divorce, Dad and I moved so he could take a job opportunity. I found myself walking the halls of my new school, Westville High.As I walked around the brick-lined halls, I noticed that the whole place was full of bimbos and sluts.There's Tina. She's a redheaded little minx who's fucked and sucked almost every male in this school. She's wearing an all-white tennis outfit, and you can see that her tits are just crammed into that little tank top. Shit, her skirt just flipped up, is she wearing any underwear?There's Nurse Brown. That nurse's uniform can't be regulation. It's impossibly tight on her curvy body. The front buttons on her uniform are undone all the way to her stomach, and I can see her black lace bra encasing her pillowy tits. What do they put in the water around here, anyway?There's Principal Schwartz. She's a buxom blonde wench who dresses like a slutty secretary. Today, she's wearing a pencil skirt which is damn tight on her ass, and slit almost all the way up her thigh. She's wearing a loose blouse. Wow, she's got huge fucking tits! I kind of like the evil scowl she's got on her face, too.I'll fuck them later, I told myself. For now, I'm hunting bigger game. Where is Sarah Stevens?I was particularly interested in Sarah Stevens, the slutty high school teacher who had been the subject of multiple stories. In one particularly hot one, she got roped into a drama production, and got into all kinds of sexual hi-jinx with the juvenile boys running the show. I particularly wanted to see the video of the show, where one boy stripped her out of a tight corset and fucked her from behind right there on the stage.Ahead of me, I finally saw her. That has to be Miss Stevens, I thought, standing among a crowd of guys. They were all yelling shit at her, trying to get her to pay attention to them. She had a small smile and her face. She looks pleased with all the attention, I thought.Holy shit! I stared at her apparel. Is that really what she's wearing around school?Ms. Stevens looked to be in her mid-twenties. She's about the same height as I am: 5' 8". Her platinum blond hair was curled in little waves which fell below her shoulders. She's wearing a sports tank top which clings to her ample tits. Her athletic, toned waist and large curvy tits were clearly highlighted by the stretchy material. She's wearing exercise shorts as well, which had a white tie around her waist. Look at that ass! It looked like I could balance a book on that thing!Damn. She's hotter than I thought, and probably just as slutty as all the stories say. To fuck her, I just have to figure out a way to get her alone, and it looks like all the other guys in this school have the exact same idea.I quickly put my plan into action. I filled out a few forms, and, presto, I am the new president of the "Water Park Club." Naturally, our noble purpose is a dedication to the enjoyment of "Water Parks".Every club at Westville has to have at least three members. I quickly bribed two obtuse classmates in my Spanish class, Marie and Greg. These two underage kids just want access to money and cigarettes, so it's easy for me to use my ID (I'm eighteen) and a little bit of evil cash to get them to sign up.Now, with the Water Park Club officially formed, I had to look for a chaperone.I asked Miss Stevens, of course. During our lunch break, there's a line of guys loitering outside her door, all hoping to get lucky and convince her to "relieve their aching erections."Since no one was actually talking to her, I walked right up and explained to her about my club."The Water Park Club," she said, "What's that about?""Well, it's a club for people who like Water Parks," I explain patiently. "Do you like Water Parks?""Yeah! Water slides are super fun," Sarah agreed."Then you have to join," I said quickly. "We could use a chaperone for our next event.""When's your next event?" she asked me.I sighed inside, and told myself to be patient. I would be fucking this idiot in due time. Just for fun, I looked down her valley of cleavage peeking out from under her tank top. "We are planning to go to the Big Kahuna Water Park this weekend. It should be really fun!"Big Kahuna.That's how I managed to get to score a trip to the Big Kahuna Water Park with the gorgeous Miss Stevens.As soon as we arrived, I quickly paid off the two idiots with five dollars in quarters; they happily found their way to the arcade.Then I went to find Miss Stevens. She was sitting under a large beach umbrella reading a copy of US Weekly magazine. The cover of the magazine was "Bieber Fever!" She was wearing a tight purple dress which had a little flower pattern on it. The dress looked almost painted on, and her ample tits bulged out through the deep U-shaped cut at the chest."Hey Miss Stevens," I said, and she looked up at me."Where are the other two members of your club?""I'm not really sure," I lied, "I guess they ditched me. Can you do some rides with me? All of the rides here are for two people!""I thought I would grab some rest time," Miss Stevens complained."But who will I go on rides with? And I'm the president of the Water Park club!"Reluctantly, she agreed.The beautiful Miss Stevens stood up, and we walked to the lady's room together for me to wait for her to change. She went inside for a few minutes. I sat outside patiently.After a minute or two, she poked her head outside and sheepishly asked me to come inside. I did so, checking first that the bathroom was empty."Can you unzip me?" she asked.She turned around and lifted her hair up."Of course," I said. I fiddled with her zipper for a while, it was quite stuck. "I just don't have enough leverage," I said."What's leverage?" she asked."Never mind. Can you just bend over the sink so I can pull the zipper harder?" I told her.Obediently, she bent over the sink and put her hips against it, bending at the waist. I stood directly behind her, with my crotch pressed firmly against her ass. I fiddled with her zipper for a while longer, stretching out the time that I was pressed directly against her electrifying ass. Then, finally, I wrenched her zipper downward, and it finally gave way.With her dress undone, Sarah shimmied out of it. Under her dress, she was already wearing her bikini.Oh my lord! My heart skips a beat. I'd read descriptions of her, but it's just incredible to see Miss Stevens in the flesh.Sarah Stevens was built like a swimsuit model or like a Playboy bunny. Under her clothes, she was wearing a very skimpy bikini. The bikini top was light blue, and was patterned with tiny white polka dots. The bikini top was well-fitting: two triangles that strained to hold in my teacher's overflowing tits. It had thin, white spaghetti strap ties which met behind her neck. Her tits were nestled together by the bra into a pool of cleavage that threatened to suck in my gaze.Her bikini bottoms had the same blue and white polka dot pattern, with white spaghetti strings tied in looping bows at her hips. How does that bottom stay on? Those ties look so fragile that I could undo her bikini with one quick move;"Ms. Stevens? Could you help me with my swimsuit now? My shorts are a little tight." No reason to complicate things, I reasoned. According to what I've read, Miss Stevens is looser than a pack of worn out rubber bands."Doug. You're really cute, and I'd love to see what's under your short," Miss Stevens says with a sexy grin. "BUT. I have a new policy. No sex with my students.""Really? Since when?" I was genuinely surprised that she was offering resistance."Since 10 minutes ago. My magazine US Weekly is very clear that teachers play an important role in society, and teacher/student relationships are a big no-no," she said with just a hint of self-righteousness."Okay, Miss Stevens. No sex. Got it." Yeah, right, I thought to myself. We'll see.I am just going to have to work a little bit harder, I thought. Shouldn't be a problem for an Evil genius like me.The Towers."Which ride should we do first?" she asked, when we had emerged from the changing room."How about that one?" I pointed to a tall, twisty one in the middle of the park.I had already memorized the layout of the park, and for the ride I had pointed to, all riders must have a partner. One person has to ride behind the other on a small plastic sled.When it was our turn to start the ride, Miss Stevens climbed onto the front of the sled, and I sat behind her. Her ass, clad in her polka dot bikini bottoms, was directly in front of my cock, and I quickly got an erection. I poked my cock directly into her tight, bikini-clad ass.I groaned involuntarily at how good it felt! As we got into position to start the ride, I ground my rigid cock forward and back, through the cleft of her ass cheeks. She didn't even seem to notice. Then I looped my hands around her waist, pulling my beautiful teacher in tight to me.The ride was fun, but I was mostly concentrating on the feeling of my cock, wedged firmly between her ass cheeks. It was great!For our next ride, I sat behind her again, my cock again was lodged deeply in the crack of her ass. The ride was down through a dark tunnel. Halfway down the slide, I grabbed onto her dangling tits with both hands.My hands were now full of her bouncy, full tits. I jiggled them, marveling at their roundness and size. Daringly, I felt her large nipples, like little erasers on my fingers. I felt her rippled darker areola ring through her bikini top, and pinched her large nipples. It felt great to have her full tits in my hands!The ride lasted about a minute, and as we crashed into the pool at the bottom, I was happy with how I'd copped a full feel.She came out of the water, her blond hair matted to her head."Did you just feel up my tits?" she accused me."No no, Miss Stevens. I was just trying to steer our slide! You know: left-right-left-right.""Oh, Ok," she said happily. "Thanks for thinking of that!"On our next ride, she got in front once again, and I sat behind her. Once more, my cock slipped between her ass cheeks like it was made to go there. Before we pushed off to go down the slide, Sarah paused to ask me, "Aren't you going to steer?""Oh, yeah. I forgot," I said. Then I put each of my hands on one of her bikini-clad tits, and we rode down together.On our fourth ride, I had her sit in the back. Her long legs encircled me, one on each side. I couldn't help but stare at her almost muscular calves and her luscious, bare thighs. They're intensely smooth, and I could feel every inch of them as they slid past my waist and we sat together.Then she put her arms around me, encircling my stomach, almost like she was hugging me. The feeling of her firm tits on my back was electrifying!"This ride has a stick shift," I explained carefully. "Pull up when you want to slow down, and push forward to go faster."I guide her hands to my full, rigid erection in front of her. She held on with both hands.We went down the ride together, and I groaned in pleasure as her hand jerked my cock back and forth frantically all the way down.After we crashed into the pool of water at the bottom, Sarah said, "The stick shift didn't work too well.""Well, the one on that sled must have been broken," I said.Lunch Lessons."Should we get some lunch?" I said.In the line for lunch, Miss Stevens told me she was on a diet. "I feel like I'm getting fat," she confided in me.She turned around, and I made a big show of staring at her perfect ass. It's immensely firm and tight. It's still wet, and little drops of moisture dotted it. Her blue and white polka dot bikini bottom is a thin triangle covering only the most meager portion of her crack.My cock twitches. Down boy, I tell my cock. You're going to get a piece of that later."Yeah, you should watch it," I lied. "Guys don't like fat chicks."She sat down to save us a couple of seats. I ordered her lunch, and paid for our food."A cheeseburger and French fries? I can't eat that stuff!" Sarah's nose crinkled in protest."No, no, these are a new thing. Super low fat cheeseburger, and skinny French fries.""Really? I love burgers and fries, and I've never heard of that before," she said."Oh, it's a new thing. A specialty, of this particular water park."I did say that I'm an Evil genius, right?During lunch, I made sure to bring up my next demented topic. "I was reading this in the news the other day. A bunch of scientists ha

No reason to complicate things, I reasoned. According to what I've read, Miss Stevens is looser than a pack of worn out rubber bands."Doug. You're really cute, and I'd love to see what's under your short," Miss Stevens says with a sexy grin. "BUT. I have a new policy. No sex with my students.""Really? Since when?" I was genuinely surprised that she was offering resistance."Since 10 minutes ago. My magazine US Weekly is very clear that teachers play an important role in society, and teacher/student relationships are a big no-no," she said with just a hint of self-righteousness."Okay, Miss Stevens. No sex. Got it." Yeah, right, I thought to myself. We'll see.I am just going to have to work a little bit harder, I thought. Shouldn't be a problem for an Evil genius like me.The Towers."Which ride should we do first?" she asked, when we had emerged from the changing room."How about that one?" I pointed to a tall, twisty one in the middle of the park.I had already memorized the layout of the park, and for the ride I had pointed to, all riders must have a partner. One person has to ride behind the other on a small plastic sled.When it was our turn to start the ride, Miss Stevens climbed onto the front of the sled, and I sat behind her. Her ass, clad in her polka dot bikini bottoms, was directly in front of my cock, and I quickly got an erection. I poked my cock directly into her tight, bikini-clad ass.I groaned involuntarily at how good it felt! As we got into position to start the ride, I ground my rigid cock forward and back, through the cleft of her ass cheeks. She didn't even seem to notice. Then I looped my hands around her waist, pulling my beautiful teacher in tight to me.The ride was fun, but I was mostly concentrating on the feeling of my cock, wedged firmly between her ass cheeks. It was great!For our next ride, I sat behind her again, my cock again was lodged deeply in the crack of her ass. The ride was down through a dark tunnel. Halfway down the slide, I grabbed onto her dangling tits with both hands.My hands were now full of her bouncy, full tits. I jiggled them, marveling at their roundness and size. Daringly, I felt her large nipples, like little erasers on my fingers. I felt her rippled darker areola ring through her bikini top, and pinched her large nipples. It felt great to have her full tits in my hands!The ride lasted about a minute, and as we crashed into the pool at the bottom, I was happy with how I'd copped a full feel.She came out of the water, her blond hair matted to her head."Did you just feel up my tits?" she accused me."No no, Miss Stevens. I was just trying to steer our slide! You know: left-right-left-right.""Oh, Ok," she said happily. "Thanks for thinking of that!"On our next ride, she got in front once again, and I sat behind her. Once more, my cock slipped between her ass cheeks like it was made to go there. Before we pushed off to go down the slide, Sarah paused to ask me, "Aren't you going to steer?""Oh, yeah. I forgot," I said. Then I put each of my hands on one of her bikini-clad tits, and we rode down together.On our fourth ride, I had her sit in the back. Her long legs encircled me, one on each side. I couldn't help but stare at her almost muscular calves and her luscious, bare thighs. They're intensely smooth, and I could feel every inch of them as they slid past my waist and we sat together.Then she put her arms around me, encircling my stomach, almost like she was hugging me. The feeling of her firm tits on my back was electrifying!"This ride has a stick shift," I explained carefully. "Pull up when you want to slow down, and push forward to go faster."I guide her hands to my full, rigid erection in front of her. She held on with both hands.We went down the ride together, and I groaned in pleasure as her hand jerked my cock back and forth frantically all the way down.After we crashed into the pool of water at the bottom, Sarah said, "The stick shift didn't work too well.""Well, the one on that sled must have been broken," I said.Lunch Lessons."Should we get some lunch?" I said.In the line for lunch, Miss Stevens told me she was on a diet. "I feel like I'm getting fat," she confided in me.She turned around, and I made a big show of staring at her perfect ass. It's immensely firm and tight. It's still wet, and little drops of moisture dotted it. Her blue and white polka dot bikini bottom is a thin triangle covering only the most meager portion of her crack.My cock twitches. Down boy, I tell my cock. You're going to get a piece of that later."Yeah, you should watch it," I lied. "Guys don't like fat chicks."She sat down to save us a couple of seats. I ordered her lunch, and paid for our food."A cheeseburger and French fries? I can't eat that stuff!" Sarah's nose crinkled in protest."No, no, these are a new thing. Super low fat cheeseburger, and skinny French fries.""Really? I love burgers and fries, and I've never heard of that before," she said."Oh, it's a new thing. A specialty, of this particular water park."I did say that I'm an Evil genius, right?During lunch, I made sure to bring up my next demented topic. "I was reading this in the news the other day. A bunch of scientists ha

It's that slow summer time for gaming news, and the bad news rings loud and clear. The Microsoft layoffs have rocked the industry, stopping some games while they were deep in production. The company claims everything in the 2025 Showcase is safe, but what about the games we didn't see? In good news, Stop Killing Games finds its footing after a rocky start. Plagued with misunderstood goals and dismissive assumptions, it seems the EU based initiative has finally taken off after finding its villain. FF14 pulled a weird thing in there cash shop.

Summary: In this episode, Justin Townsend and Adam Berkelmans dive deep into the art and evolution of the burger, with a special focus on wild game and foraged ingredients. They trace the burger's origins from the Mongol Empire to today's gourmet variations, highlighting its transformation from a humble meal to a canvas for culinary creativity. The duo explores essential burger-building techniques—from selecting the right protein, bun, and fat content to grinding meat, shaping patties, and using fillers and binders for optimal texture. They also emphasize the importance of resting the meat and choosing toppings that balance flavor and texture. Personal preferences and inventive recipes take center stage, with a playful twist as they create wild burgers using unconventional ingredients. Throughout, the conversation celebrates experimentation and encourages listeners to explore the endless possibilities of burger-making. - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Leave a Review of the Podcast⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy our Wild Fish and Game Spices⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Links: Moroccan Style Lake Trout Burger Seared Tuna Burger Moose Burgers on Bannock Buns Havarti Stuffed Venison Burgers Takeaways: Wild burgers made from venison, bear, or foraged ingredients offer a unique, pride-filled twist on tradition.

  This week's guest on The Unbeatable Mind is a true, living, breathing example of how success can only come through hard work. Coming from truly humble beginnings, Tommy Mello talks to Mark Divine this week about how he's turned the seemingly innocuous garage door industry into a powerhouse currently set to surpass $100 million EBIDTA.    Tommy shares how he built and scaled his business from the ground up. From mowing lawns as a teenager in Michigan, to hiring top talent and building a world-class team, Tommy reveals the strategies that got him to the position he finds himself in today. He and Mark discuss leveraging equity incentive programs, fostering a culture in which staff can thrive, and Tommy's “build to sell” philosophy.    They also get personal, discussing the ups and downs that come with rapid financial success, learning the art of delegation, and the toll of “the grind.” Tommy gives his candid take on money, legacy, and health routines, and dives into the future of blue-collar work in an AI driven world. All in all, Tommy's insights are valuable for leaders, business owners, or anyone with the drive to build something big.      Key Takeaways:  Building To Sell: Tommy shares his philosophy on structuring business to make them sellable and scalable. His approach to acquisitions, greenfields, and organic growth aim to maximise value for future exits.  The Art of Recruiting: Discover how hiring is about far more than just what's on the resume. Tommy shares why he cares far more about passion and drive than technical skills, and how he can spot “unicorn” talent by paying attention to the little details.  The Power of Delegation: Listen as Tommy dishes on his personal journey of learning to let go. Grinding one hundred percent of the time is unsustainable, so he's learned to build checklists, hire smarter people, and invest in his own growth through coaches and consultants.  Marketing & Growth: Recognize how marketing for both customers and recruiting is the most valuable skill for company leadership.   As an entrepreneur, Tommy Mello has navigated the trenches, initially donning multiple hats – from sales and marketing to accounting and recruitment. However, he realized that sustainable success doesn't demand sacrificing family and friendships with relentless 14-hour shifts; it requires strategic intelligence and building invaluable connections.   So, he embarked on a journey of working smarter, not harder, focusing on cultivating the right networks. In a bid to pay it forward and support fellow home service industry entrepreneurs, he established a vibrant Facebook group. Here, he freely shares his insights and experiences while fostering a community where luminaries like Ken Goodrich, Joe Crisara, Al Levi, and other industry experts contribute their invaluable wisdom spanning branding, social media, and finance.     Tommy's Links:  Website: https://homeserviceexpert.com/  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tommymello/   Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/officialtommymello/?hl=en   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCHZz8wAvo7GEvDw04C9DDWQ  X: https://x.com/realtommymello?lang=en    Sponsors and Promotions:   Momentous: If you're interested in making a true investment in your health, why not join the best in human performance and be part of the change in raising the bar on supplements.

#871 What do you imagine when you think of a solopreneur? I thought it was about building a business entirely on your own, never asking anyone for help. This gave me a sense of control, especially after losing my architecture job. Whether my brand would succeed or fail, more than anything, I wanted it to be on my terms! Here's the spoiler alert, though. You can't do it alone if you want to make it as an entrepreneur. Believe me, I know the objections: "Hiring is expensive." "Managing people is annoying." But how do we get over these hurdles to level up our businesses? In this episode, I share the hidden costs of going solo and the exact process I've used to find people who would 10x my growth. I discuss overcoming perfectionism, the contrast between collaboration and networking, and red flags to look out for when dealing with people. Join me for this session!

There's no doubt triathlon can be an isolated sport. Grinding for miles and miles with no one watching, or frankly caring. But you do. Or you should, because what you're doing is something difficult, meaningful, and what you're supposed to do. We rehash our Nashville Camp and crystalize why it's so important to us to be around like minded people. It's nice to know we're not crazy when it's easy to feel that way out on our own, putting ourselves through pain, and sometimes not even understanding why. Today, we look at what that why might be and share why it's important to keep going. Topics: Nashville Camp recap and lessons Riding Natchez Trace Chasing SUP boards Reaching that bonfire moment Hills and Heat Learning through the sport and analogies with life Is the ultimate goal to be in the moment? That magic moment when there's not a care in the world If 9 out of 10 people think you're crazy, you're probably on the right track We're in this together. Importance of tribes Going dark and loving it One day and one moment at a time   Mike Tarrolly - mike@c26triathlon.com Robbie Bruce - robbie@c26triathlon.com

Grab your briefcase of your biggest words, gaming is doing the thing again. Bungie has been caught stealing art, but it's not just art, it's the whole look of Marathon. Ai Vader is dropping F-bombs in Fortnite. WoW housing is real, though they were a bit secretive about what could be shared. Magic the Gathering is doing great though. All this and more.

Let's GO!!! This is not your average podcast episode. No fluff, no filler—just straight fire. This episode is one that'll hit you in the heart AND light a fire under your feet. I sat down with my guy, NFL quarterback Brett Rypien—seven-year vet, newlywed, and one of the most mentally dialed-in athletes I've ever coached. We've trained together for 6 years now, and I can tell you this: he is one snap away from becoming a household name. Seriously. Additionally, I have a MINDSET section where I expand on the “One Snap Away” mentality and how this applies to each and every one of us. Lastly, I close this week's podcast with a personal share on my son Luke Durkin who just graduated from Davidson College (NC) over the weekend and who's about to embark upon law school this Fall. I share my most proud moment over his 4-year career in school, football, and the ROTC. Whether you're an athlete, a coach, a leader, or just someone hungry for passion, purpose, & IMPACT—you're going to want to hear this episode! In This Episode, We Hit: Mindset Mastery: What it means to “live in victory, not for victory.” Brett's daily habits will challenge how you start your mornings—and why he ditched social media cold turkey. Faith in the Fire: Brett's faith isn't just something he talks about—it's his anchor. He shares how God, prayer, and how Psalm 23 keep him steady through the NFL's chaos. Grinding in the Shadows: We talk about what it's like to fight for a job every year. No guaranteed money. No promises. Just hard work, sweat, and belief. The Rypien Cup: Yes, it's real. A family golf battle royale that makes Ryder Cup look tame. You'll love this story. NFL Brotherhood: Lessons from Russ, Cooper Kupp, Cortland Sutton—and why the guys who stick around the longest win with their mind, not just their arm. My take on why backups often make the BEST coaches… and why Brett is destined for greatness beyond football. The “ONE SNAP AWAY” mentality. My personal section filled with pride & joy as my oldest son Luke Durkin just graduated from college and I share some highlights, lowlights, and what I'm most proud of over his 4-year career. PLUS: The Brett Rypien Jump Rope Challenge is officially ON. Can you hit 900 straight? Bring it on!! This episode is raw. It's real. It's a masterclass in mindset, faith, and perseverance. Hit play. Take notes. Share this with someone who needs a little light today. And keep your eyes on #11 in Minnesota—Brett Rypien is one snap away. Let's GO! Thanks for tuning-in.

The boys are back and update their week of running. Double B keeps grinding, Sleepy G gives Brother Bill some tough love and more....

(00:00-23:12) Brad Thompson joins the show from the parking lot of Auto Zone. The pitching as of late. Not a swing and miss staff but doing what works pitching to contact. Navigating a winnable division. Still don't know exactly who this team is. Moves as the trade deadline approaches and how that will affect the team's relationship with the fans. The Wilson Contreras transition to first base. The historically bad Colorado Rockies.(23:21-37:52) What up, VS2? Doug dissin' Argo. It's a soft onboarding. Grinding it out with the three year old on the putting green. Jackson needs a lesson. The Goose is Loose. Stopping the cart to take in The Goose. Choosing the underwear. Tim's a data guy, Jackson's a feel guy. Twisted femurs. Mt. Rushmore of things Jackson is good at.(38:01-47:02) Quite a situation during the commercial break. Behind the smut. Doug's birthday dinner. Bring me a slab of fish. Dorf on Golf. Jackson's down on Speed 2. Good sequels.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Sick hosts, but sick games! GTA 6 has a release date and trailer 2 is out. World of Warcraft is giving players a way to play with a single button. The Final Fantasy Magic the Gathering set is now the fastest selling pre-order ever. Elden Ring Nightreign is looking real good. All this and a big dose of thanks from our sickness addled brains.
