In Ireland the most important person is a seanchaí (story teller). Their stories keep the community together and thriving. Patrick Mulvaney is such a person. We were honored and a little nervous to serve Patrick a Mai Tai in the Landau Tiki bar this week. Why? Because he's an award-winning chef and owner of an incredible restaurant. Even though Patrick is very busy as a restaurateur he sees his role in the community as way more important. He is a leading force behind the Farm-to Fork movement that has swept the nation, his restaurant during the pandemic served 100,000+ meals to the community and he's also one of the key forces behind the "I Got Your Back Project" that deals directly with the mental health crisis in the restaurant business. This is an episode that you won't forget! • More about Patrick Mulvaney and Mulvaney B&L: https://mulvaneysbl.com/about • Episode Content: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Patrick-Mulvaney-Interview-It-Really-Is-A-Wonderful-Life • This week's Sponsor: lovemyheartstudy.com • Subscribe to the I Used to be Somebody newsletter: https://pickleballmediahq.com/contact/subscribe

Carl meets and interviews one of his personal heroes this week in the Tiki bar! Jerry is a living legend in Sacramento and throughout the NBA after serving as head coach (not once but twice), General Manager and Broadcaster. His story is truly a remarkable one! He grew up in poverty in French Lick, Indiana (Jerry is life long friends with superstar Larry Bird) shared the same bedroom with 4 of his siblings and no running water or electricity. He talks about the tragic car accident that ended his own bright basketball career and eventually led him to coaching and fame in the NBA as an Exec and Broadcaster. Great stories about "Larry Legend" and Bill Russell and Carl gets a little nostalgic about his early days as a crazy teenage Cleveland Cavaliers fan in the early '70's. A "country boy" at heart, Jerry is fun, funny and full of (Un)Retirement advice! And for hard core NBA fans check out the end for a bonus outtake. • More about Jerry Reynolds: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerry_Reynolds_(basketball,_born_1944) • Episode Content: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Jerry-Reynolds-NBA-Legend-Retired-Relaxed-and-Remarkable • Subscribe to the "I Used to be Somebody" Newsletter: https://pickleballmediahq.com/contact/subscribe

With no experience in roasting coffee beans or baking deliciousness, and a few glasses of wine, Tim Jordan and Jason, his future business partner, did exactly that.

You can't help but be pumped up after listening to Cinde Dolphin. Despite some challenges at home she became determined at a young age to be a positive person and an agent for change. And the rest is history! Cinde helped Coors forge a new frontier-- the East Coast markets. Remember when Coors wasn't actually sold "East of the Rocky Mountains"? Along the way, Cinde battled four bouts with cancer and has emerged stronger than ever. She left the beer biz and took a deep dive into social media marketing for the wine industry. Determined to improve the lives of cancer patients, (and because of her experience as a patient), she was spurred on to become a first- time entrepreneur/ inventor in the medical supply industry. Through all her life experiences, Cinde has embraced change and risk. She says, "The shoe can drop at any time, so maybe that's what makes me risk-involved, I can afford to take chances. It makes me appreciate making every day special." • More about Cinde Dolphin: https://medicaldraincarrier.com/news • Episode Content: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Cinde-Dolphin-Interview-queen-of-positivity • Subscribe to the free "I Used to be Somebody" newsletter: https://pickleballmediahq.com/contact/subscribe

We've got a super entertaining interview this week with the very talented and funny Jack Gallagher. He is nationally known because he was a regular at the Improv in the '80's when comedy clubs were super hot, had appearances on the Tonight show with Johnny Carson and Conan, is an award winning television host of a PBS series, and has a recurring role on the hit HBO show "Curb Your Enthusiasm". But Carl knows Jack best because of Jack's eight incredible one man shows he's written and starred in. Just like his shows, Jack will make you laugh and cry and just think of the world in a little different way. • More about Jack Gallagher: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Gallagher_(comedian) • Episode Content: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Jack-Gallagher-Take-a-Chance • Subscribe to the free "I Used to be Somebody" newsletter: https://pickleballmediahq.com/contact/subscribe

Alan Newman doesn't really have hobbies---if he did, it would be to continually start new companies! Alan is the real deal. He is a serial entrepreneur, part of a rare breed of risk-takers who start up companies as often as they have new ideas. He's started dozens of successful businesses and he seems to have a gift for picking the next new hot markets. Alan founded the burgeoning mail-order Gardener's Supply Company, he co-founded the incredibly popular eco-friendly Seventh Generation line of home products and then he launched a successful micro beer biz as that industry was taking off, the Magic Hat Brewing Company. And the list of companies he creates goes on still today! This episode is compelling not only because of Alan Newman's long list of accomplishments, but also because it's about the man himself. He's brilliant, self-effacing and enjoys chaos, knowing how to find his way through it. (You've also need to listen to see who wins the battle of the sarcastic old Jews this week.) Never bet against a genius dude in a giant white beard from Vermont! • For more about Alan Newman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Newman_(entrepreneur) • Alan Newman's Appearance on "How I Built This": https://www.npr.org/2021/01/22/959614771/seventh-generation-alan-newman-and-jeffrey-hollender • Episode Content: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Alan-Newman-Interview-Life-Way-Outside-the-Box • Subscribe to the "I Used to be Somebody" Newsletter: https://pickleballmediahq.com

Today I had the pleasure of sitting down with J.L Raynor. J.L. is a multi-talented author, speaker, podcast and publisher. We had a great conversation about his book I Used to Be a Racist and is publishing company 105 publishing. This is an episode you want to hear! Jason (aka J. L.) is an author, speaker, writer, and instructor. He released his memoir “I Used To Be Racist” in 2019, traveling around the country to numerous book events. Prior to starting 105 Publishing, Jason had the unfortunate circumstance of working with a publishing company who made promises with a hidden agenda. To this day, his book can be found on websites he had no intentions of selling his work on. Jason has always enjoyed helping people. From teaching defensive tactics courses, helping people identify trauma, or in the case of 105 Publishing, helping to make an author’s dream become a reality without a catch.

Melissa Davey's story is simply a delight. What is the probability that a 65 year-old successful insurance executive has a chance encounter with a world renowned film director and then is inspired to make her own movie? Just how happenstance led Melissa to create her Second Act would make a great movie script. Her story is one of inspiration and her advice is to always take the detour in life. Now 71, Melissa completed her moving documentary, Beyond Sixty and is inspiring tens of thousands of older people. The film is about the fascinating lives and accomplishments of women in their 60's, 70's and beyond. As Melissa says, "The film brings women's voices forward...and there is still have much time left to do new things." Her story inspired Carl to pursue making his own documentary, a lifelong dream of his.

What a super fun conversation this week with Henry and Carl. Henry Schulman has been the beat writer for 30+ years covering the San Francisco Giants. He just retired a couple of months ago, so it's an interesting perspective from an (Un)Retirement newbie. The conversation is about way more than just sports. Henry raised by his Jewish immigrant parents who were also Holocaust survivors. He is very honest and frank about all the ups and downs in his career and life. His battle with cancer (and recovery) and all that entails being on the road for a long career. And Carl who is a lifelong Giants fan, couldn't help himself to ask about his relationship with the SF Giants' former star Barry Bonds. It's a no-holds-barred conversation. Henry is definitely going to squeeze fun and discovery into every minute of his new (Un)Retirement life and he shares his optimism for an adventurous future! • For more about Henry Schulman: https://sanfranballscribe.blogspot.com • Episode Content: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Henry-Schulman-Interview-Its-Really-Not-Just-About-Baseball • This Week's Sponsor is The Monkey Creative: https://themonkeycreative.com • Subscribe to the "I Used to be Somebody" newsletter: https://pickleballmediahq.com

It's been an interesting and wild 60 year ride for Mike Branon. After some ups and downs in life, Mike became an entrepreneur in the 1990's, finding a niche in construction storage units. That business took off to the point that he was able to sell his business and retire at 40 years old. During the past 20 years Mike has reinvented himself many times -- as a microbrewery owner, teacher, philanthropist, world traveler, massage therapist and now a Pickleball Instructor and first-time book author. Mike wrote Pickleball & the Art of Living in 2020 during the pandemic, trapped on a cruise ship near the shores of Australia for 20+ extra days. Mike shares his lessons learned and secrets to a happy, adventurous (un)retirement life. • For more about Mike Branon: https://www.mikebranon.com • Episode Content: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Mike-Branon-Interview-Keep-Moving-Forward • This week's sponsor The Monkey Creative: https://themonkeycreative.com • Subscribe to the "I Used to be Somebody" newsletter: https://pickleballmediahq.com
About 10 years ago, Chris Welles took a big family trip (which he was hesitant to go on) to East Africa. The safari adventure was transformative for him. He fell in love with Kenyan wildlife and more importantly, the people. Chris's story is amazing!

He also created a foundation to help support Kenyan wildlife conservation, as well as the local communities. There are so many life lessons learned in this episode. Plus a ton of laughs shared between Chris and Carl.

Today Carl talks with Devon Zagory -- one of the world's foremost experts on food safety. Not so exciting, you might think. But Devon's life journey has been anything but boring. This hippie college dropout hitchhiked around the world, found clarity in drug exploration and ends up not only graduating from college but obtaining a PHD and a second degree, with a passion for helping poor farmers in rural countries around the world. After years of financial struggles, Devon became a reluctant entrepreneur and eventually a multi-millionaire. It's quite a trip! And now he shares what he is discovering about himself in (un)retirement. It's fascinating. • To subscribe to the "I Used to be Somebody" newsletter: https://pickleballmediahq.com • For more information, visit the web blog: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Devon-Zagory-interview-Food-Safety-Superhero For more information, visit the show notes at https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/Devon-Zagory-interview-Food-Safety-Superhero

This week's interview was different, as Carl interviewed the person that may be the all-time expert about (un)retirement. Over the last 3 years, Andy Levine has interviewed 90+ guests for his own show". He also happens to be in the process right now of creating his own Second Act. He's phasing out of his big-time career and "testing out" 5 completely different acts. It's a lot of trial and error. And predictably he provides a whole boatload of amazing (Un)Retirement advice!
