Episode Description What's keeping you from making that big change you've been dreaming about? In this thought-provoking Freaky Friday episode, Scott Smith dives into the psychology behind why we stay in our comfort zones even when we desperately want something more. After a conversation with his adventure-seeking friend April, Scott explores the counterintuitive truth that the very foundation that allows us to dream is often what we're afraid to risk. He unpacks why we become more risk-averse as we accumulate success and how this creates an internal conflict between our desire for growth and our fear of loss. Discover why criminals often "age out" of crime after 40, why empty-nesters suddenly feel ready to pursue new dreams, and most importantly, how to build a "peaceful foundation" that allows you to pursue change without sacrificing what you've worked so hard to build. This episode provides practical wisdom for anyone feeling stuck between the safety of what is and the allure of what could be. Featured Story Scott shares a conversation with his friend April, a hang glider pilot and dog trainer who works with animals in the film industry. During their "solving the world's problems" discussion, she poses the question of why people don't take big chances and stay in their comfort zones for their entire lives. This leads to insights about how people get comfortable with what they've built and fear losing it, with April noting that criminals tend to stop breaking the law after 40 because they finally have something to lose—mirroring how our relationship with risk changes as we acquire more in life. Key Takeaways The foundation that provides our security is often what prevents us from pursuing our dreams People become more risk-averse as they acquire assets, relationships, and responsibilities The "empty nest" phase often coincides with renewed willingness to take risks as there's less to lose Having a growth mindset and believing anything is possible is essential for making big changes Holding too tightly to what you have sends the wrong energetic message to the universe Fear will always be present when beginning a new adventure, but knowledge is the cure Building a "peaceful base" in your current life creates the security needed to pursue change Dreams continue to whisper to us until they either manifest or get snuffed out by inaction Memorable Quotes "When you have a growth mindset and believe that anything is possible, you can do anything." "As a human, you will never be comfortable gambling on the very thing that allows you to dream." "Anything is possible when you protect that foundation and respect the challenge and honor the dreams that are whispering in your soul." Scott's Three-Step Approach Embrace a growth mindset: Recognize that holding too tightly to what you have sends the wrong energetic message. Be willing to expand your horizons while appreciating what you've built. Strengthen your foundation: Understand that your solid foundation is what allows you to dream bigger—don't gamble it away, but don't let it become your prison either. Make sure your basic needs remain secure. Acquire knowledge to overcome fear: Fear is inevitable with any new adventure, but the cure is knowledge. When you fully understand what you have and prepare as much as possible for your journey, you'll find yourself willing to go for it.

Episode Description We all face life-changing decisions that leave us feeling like we're about to strap ourselves into a rocket and shoot across a canyon. In this engaging episode, Scott Smith tackles the universal fear of change and introduces a powerful concept to help you navigate those transitions with confidence. Scott shares his personal realization about looming life changes and unpacks why even positive, well-justified decisions can still feel terrifying. Drawing from his years of coaching experience, he introduces the concept of "transitional identity"—a practical approach to bridge the gap between your current self and your future self. Discover why the uncomfortable feeling in your gut is actually a natural response to change and learn how to create a "peaceful base" that allows you to move forward with less fear. This episode offers a refreshing perspective on transformation that will help you embrace change rather than avoid it. Featured Story Scott opens with a humorous personal anecdote about his wife suddenly listening to his podcast after years of not doing so, highlighting how even small changes in our relationships can feel disruptive. This leads into his reflection on waking up with the realization that life-changing events were looming in his future, creating a perfect segue into discussing how we all face moments of significant transition that can feel as dramatic as Evel Knievel's infamous attempt to jump the Snake River Canyon. Key Takeaways Life is fundamentally about getting from where you are today to where you want to go tomorrow We view ourselves through our identity, which makes changing feel threatening The future feels fictional while our current life feels real, making apprehension a natural response Creating a "transitional identity" helps bridge the gap between your current and future self Decision fatigue can be fixed by gaining full clarity about your direction Life-changing decisions feel intimidating regardless of how exciting or justified they are The transformation from what you have now to what you want is what drives personal growth Building a "peaceful base" for today creates a foundation for tomorrow's changes Memorable Quotes "Life is all about getting from where you are today to where you want to go tomorrow." "It's the transformation from what you have now to what you want that excites growth in your lives." "As your future becomes real, your transitional identity transitions. You leave what's behind you and go to the future." Scott's Three-Step Approach Accept your current identity: Acknowledge who you are right now without judgment, creating what Scott calls a "peaceful base" as your foundation. Create your transitional identity: Develop a bridge identity that exists between who you are now and who you're becoming (e.g., "I've always been a hometown person, but now I'm learning to become a citizen of the world"). Build a bridge to your future self: Focus on the transition process rather than the gap between where you are and where you want to be, allowing your identity to gradually shift as your future becomes real.

Episode Description Are your dreams taking longer to achieve than you expected? In this eye-opening episode, Scott Smith shares a powerful mindset shift that could save you time, money, and heartache on your journey to success. Drawing from his experience with a struggling business client, Scott introduces his "learn, churn, and burn" formula—three critical questions you should answer before embarking on any significant venture. Whether you're growing a business, starting a side hustle, or pursuing any worthwhile goal, understanding your timeline for skill development, commitment, and resource depletion can be the difference between success and disappointment. Scott cuts through the motivational fluff and delivers the "coming of Jesus, kick-in-the-butt" truth about what it really takes to turn dreams into reality. This episode offers practical wisdom to help you create a realistic success timeline and focus your energy on the minimal viable actions that truly move the needle. Featured Story Scott shares the story of visiting a client whose new business was growing slower than expected, causing significant stress as money was running out. Through a series of strategic questions about skill acquisition, commitment timeframes, and resource management, Scott helped the client create a focused plan with a definite timeline. Within a few months, the client reached their goal and has maintained a successful business ever since. Key Takeaways Most people underestimate how long it takes to develop the skills needed for success Setting arbitrary deadlines for achievement often leads to failure Understanding exactly how long your resources will last is crucial for realistic planning The support of family members (especially spouses) is a critical resource often overlooked Creating a clear inventory of your situation allows you to develop a viable action plan It takes far less than most people think to achieve their goals when they focus their energy Any worthwhile project has a better chance of success with realistic process expectations Dreams require specific skill sets and mindsets to be achieved Memorable Quotes "Success is always bigger than failure." "It takes far less than you think to get what you want." "Any worthwhile project stands a far better chance of success if you are realistic about the process before you ever get started." Scott's Three-Step Approach Calculate your skill timeline: Honestly assess how long it will take you to learn the specific skills necessary for your particular goal or venture. Determine your commitment threshold: Decide exactly how long you're willing to "churn and work" at your goal before reaching your breaking point. Inventory your burn rate: Calculate precisely how long your resources (money, credit, favors, family support) will last, then create a minimal viable action plan that fits within these constraints.

Episode Description Why does life have to be so difficult? Why can't we just do what we want without all the roadblocks? In this engaging episode, Scott Smith tackles the universal challenge of navigating life's obstacles while keeping your eyes on the opportunities that matter. Drawing from his experience with dog agility training, Scott reveals how easy it is to get pulled off course by distractions that appear to be opportunities but are actually obstacles in disguise. He explains the concept of "obstacle discrimination" – the crucial skill of distinguishing between what moves you forward and what derails your progress. Discover why even well-meaning people can place distractions in your path and learn practical strategies to stay focused on the goals that align with your true destination. This episode is your guide to following the right numbers and avoiding the traps that could set you back for years. Featured Story Scott shares his experience training his dog Levi in agility courses with world champion trainer Mindy. In agility, handlers must guide their dogs through numerous obstacles in the correct order while avoiding "traps" designed to pull them off course. This becomes a powerful metaphor for life, where the ability to discriminate between the correct path and false opportunities determines our success. Key Takeaways Most times when people feel stalled, it's because they don't see opportunities available to them All daily activities lead to either distractions or progress toward your ultimate destination True happiness comes from staying on course toward your authentic goals Many distractions look like opportunities but are actually obstacles that pull you off track Well-meaning people often place distractions in front of you that can derail you for years Making choices not aligned with your goals (jobs, relationships, financial decisions) can take you off course Recovery from wrong paths takes time, so minimizing these detours accelerates your progress Having a framework or plan helps, but you must also skillfully navigate unexpected distractions Memorable Quotes "Life begins when you move. Stand up, take a step, repeat. Keep going until you get what you want." "If you live an active, growth-oriented life, you're going to encounter distractions." "Follow the plan, the best plan you possibly can, but understand that many times those numbers are going to change." Scott's Three-Step Approach Set your sights well to find gold: Clearly define what you truly want, not just what appears in front of you or what others suggest you should pursue. Follow the right numbers: Stick to your plan and the path that aligns with your authentic goals, even when tempting distractions present themselves. Develop obstacle discrimination: Practice distinguishing between true opportunities and disguised obstacles, minimizing the times you head down paths that require lengthy recovery.

Episode Description Are you feeling worn out, frustrated, and wondering when things will turn around? You're not alone. In this powerful episode, Scott Smith tackles the all-too-common experience of hitting your breaking point before finally making a change. Scott shares a compelling story about a client who was literally "yelling at God" out of frustration, highlighting that reaching your limits is actually a sign you're on the right track. With his signature blend of straight talk and motivation, Scott explains why we often need to wear ourselves out before embracing necessary changes. Discover why the "grind and hustle" mentality isn't sustainable and learn three practical steps to stop postponing the changes you know you need to make. This episode is your permission slip to stop waiting and start living while you're alive. Featured Story Scott shares a story about his client who reached such a point of frustration that they found themselves "yelling at God." Rather than viewing this as inappropriate, Scott reframes this breaking point as a positive indicator that change is coming. This relatable moment illustrates how we all reach a threshold where maintaining the status quo becomes more painful than making a change. Key Takeaways Life is a marathon made up of daily sprints, but lacking a clear destination leads to aimless activity The "grind and hustle" mentality celebrated in today's society often leads to unsustainable behaviors You will change when you wear yourself out - reluctance and fear can only hold you back for so long When you've had enough, you'll make changes even if the timing isn't perfect Every action you take today is defining your life and creating your legacy Making changes now lets you skip unnecessary suffering and get to the good stuff sooner Memorable Quotes "Stand up, take a step, repeat. Keep going till you get what you want." "Get your butt moving today so you can live while you're alive." "There is no need to wait. The good stuff is right around the corner." Scott's Three-Step Approach Define your destination with clarity: Even if you can't map out your entire life path, work on identifying clear short-term goals to guide your daily actions. Match your daily activity with your goals: Ensure your everyday actions align with what you say you want to achieve – this alignment naturally leads to greater fulfillment. Accept that change is inevitable: Recognize that you'll eventually make changes when you wear yourself out completely, so why not skip the suffering and make those changes today?

Welcome to another exciting episode of the Comic Crusaders Podcast with your host, Al Mega, bringing you the best and brightest voices in the world of pop culture, comics, and beyond. Today, we have an absolutely legendary guest joining us. He's a powerhouse in the comic book industry, known for his incredible storytelling and ability to breathe life into beloved characters and franchises. It's none other than Ed Brisson! Ed has worked on some of the most iconic comic book titles out there, and today we're diving deep into one of the most exciting revivals of the year: SilverHawks. This classic animated series from the 1980s is making a triumphant return in comic book form, and Ed is at the helm, ready to take us on a journey back to Limbo Galaxy with the unforgettable heroes and villains we grew up loving. In this live episode, we'll explore Ed's journey—from his early years discovering comics, to his rise as a celebrated writer, and his unique approach to storytelling. We'll also uncover his personal connection to SilverHawks, what fans can expect from this thrilling new series, and even get a sneak peek at some of the surprises in store for readers. So grab your wings and prepare to soar into an action-packed conversation filled with nostalgia, creativity, and insight. Twitter: @edbrisson BlueSky: @edbrisson.bsky.social Follow Dynamite Entertainment at: www.Dynamite.com ON SALE DATE: 1/29/2025 About Silverhawks #1 – In the nearby galaxy of Limbo, the deadly mob boss Mon*Star has escaped from his confinement on Penal Planet 10 – and he's looking to take revenge on everyone who put him there! At the top of that list is Commander Stargazer, the grizzled space cop who personally took Mon*Star down the last time he went on a rampage. To recapture Mon*Star and his gang of super-criminal associates, Stargazer must put his retirement on hold and assemble a new team of his famed bionically enhanced law enforcers – the SilverHawks! Recruited from every corner of known space by the Federal Interplanetary Force, the SilverHawks were engineered to be the first line of defense against Limbo's ruthless agents of chaos. But during Mon*Star's long incarceration, the program went dormant, and its state-of-the-art tech has drifted towards obsolescence. Now, as they take on the galaxy's deadliest lawbreakers, Stargazer's new team of untested cyborgs – including Quicksilver, Bluegrass, Hotwing, Steelwill, Steelheart, and The Copper Kidd – will face the ultimate trial by fire!

Here's an interview with developer Reinhard, aka C0pperdragon. He's the inventor of Lumacode, a way to get excellent quality video from 8-bit and earlier consoles / computers. These mods are generally easier than most other video mods and almost always allow for #nocutmods.
