Get the podcast (and exclusive content):https://randygage.com/podcastMost people have heard the saying, "Money doesn't buy happiness." Randy agrees. But he also points out an uncomfortable truth: poverty doesn't buy happiness either. In this thought-provoking conversation on Chapter X, Randy joins host Michael Kay to explore the relationship between money, prosperity, fulfillment, and what it really means to live a rich life. Randy explains why money and material possessions are an important part of prosperity, but not the whole picture. He shares insights from working with highly successful entrepreneurs and executives who have built massive wealth, only to discover that financial success alone doesn't guarantee happiness, meaningful relationships, health, or purpose. The discussion challenges common misconceptions about wealth and reveals why true prosperity requires balance across every area of life. In This Episode: • Why money doesn't buy happiness, but poverty doesn't either • The difference between wealth and prosperity • Why material possessions aren't the ultimate goal • What Randy's ultra-successful clients are really struggling with • The hidden cost of neglecting relationships and health • Why many high achievers reach a point of reassessment • Creating a life that includes wealth, purpose, health, and fulfillment • How prosperity extends beyond your bank account If you've ever wondered whether success and happiness are the same thing, this conversation offers a powerful perspective.

The Anthony Volpe controversy deepens as Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber compare Michael Kay's retracted claim with a similar report from Joel Sherman. They debate whether Volpe resisted playing second base, whether the story was twisted by semantics, and why versatility could determine his future with the Yankees. The conversation also covers Brett Baty's value as a multiposition player, the Jets' modest version of the promised land, and Evan's scorekeeping vindication after a Mets error was corrected. Plus, the hosts discuss a frustrating flat tire ordeal, possible catcher trades involving the Yankees, and Jordan Clarkson's return to the Knicks.

The Yankees face a pivotal game against Tampa Bay with Cody Bellinger at first base, Paul Goldschmidt on the bench, and their division hopes beginning to tighten. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate the lineup, the bullpen plan, and whether Brian Cashman deserves more credit for keeping the franchise competitive without delivering another championship. The Anthony Volpe controversy takes center stage as Michael Kay walks back a report that Volpe resisted playing second base while Joel Sherman appears to support the original claim. The conversation also covers Francisco Lindor's lack of hustle, excitement around the young Nets, the Jets' definition of the promised land, and possible catcher moves before the trade deadline.

Michael Kay says there is no truth to the rumor that Anthony Volpe refused to play second base in the minor leagues, but the original claim may have already changed how Yankees fans view him. Evan Roberts examines the retraction and the questions that still remain. The conversation explores whether the Yankees pushed back on the story, why false or unverified claims can be impossible to erase, and how Volpe could rebuild his value by becoming a more versatile player. Even with the denial, the rumor may continue to follow him.

Jose Caballero takes one of the strangest called third strikes imaginable, leaving broadcasters and fans searching for an explanation. Was he fooled, expecting a walk, or simply caught guessing on the wrong pitch? The conversation also examines the Anthony Volpe position change rumor, Michael Kay's quick retraction, and why the allegation may follow Volpe regardless of the truth. Plus, the Yankees weigh bold pitching upgrades while the Mets face difficult decisions about their roster and future.

Most of us grow up thinking success means staying busy, staying strong, and never stopping. But what happens when the career that defined you is gone? Michael Kay spent decades as a financial planner and NYU instructor helping high achievers build wealth — until he realized the most important investments had nothing to do with portfolios. He's the host of the Chapter X Podcast and author of How to Craft Your Chapter X, and he's spent years guiding successful men through the emotional and psychological shift from career identity to a purposeful next chapter. He's been married to his college sweetheart Wendy since 1977, is a dad of two, and a grandfather of three. This conversation goes deep on the patterns we inherit from our fathers, what it actually means to listen instead of just waiting to respond, and why retirement without intention is a trap most men never see coming. If you've ever tied your worth to what you do instead of who you are, this one is for you. Timeline Summary [1:02] Larry introduces the June Alliance promo — signed copy of The Pursuit of Legendary Fatherhood plus three bonus courses for new members [3:01] Michael joins in studio, sharing what it means to be a dad and grandfather first [3:48] Larry invites Michael to describe growing up with a demanding, workaholic father who didn't spare physical discipline [5:29] Michael reflects on how watching his father — who had no model himself — taught him what he would never do with his own children [9:49] Michael shares what he learned from his father's dedication as a sixth-grade teacher who taught every student at their own reading level [10:42] Michael's musical upbringing — his uncle was good enough to play with Duke Ellington, and Michael took weekly lessons from a New York Philharmonic trumpeter at 14 [17:55] A butcher named Al Roth becomes a turning point — the first man Michael ever saw who loved his family openly, and what that lit up in him [22:31] Larry asks how Michael and Wendy have navigated 49 years of marriage, especially given the communication models neither of them grew up with [26:36] Michael breaks down how men and women process differently — and why creating space instead of rushing to solve is the real skill in marriage [29:47] What deep listening actually looks like in practice, and why a "yeah, but" response signals that no one was listening at all [34:26] The origin of "Chapter X" — and how an eighth-grade algebra class planted the idea that every next season of life is something to solve for [40:19] Why the book is not about money — it's about reclaiming the curious, unfinished person you were before your career became your identity [43:33] The eulogy exercise: Michael and Larry on why writing your own eulogy is one of the most powerful things a man can do to realign his actions with his values [47:37] The hard truth that 98% of daily activity often isn't in alignment with what you'd want said about you at the end [49:44] Michael tells his 50-years-younger self to stop taking himself so seriously, start listening better, and soften the edges Five Key Takeaways Nothing happens in a vacuum. The way your father treated you was shaped by everything that happened to him before you arrived. Understanding the roots of that behavior doesn't excuse it, but it changes how you carry it forward. You only break a cycle when something from outside enters your normal. For Michael, that was Al Roth — a marine turned butcher who loved his family loudly and openly. You can't change patterns you can't see, and sometimes it takes a single outside example to show you another way. Men and women don't process information the same way, and pretending otherwise is what creates most communication breakdowns. Allowing space, taking things in small chunks, and saying "let me think about that" are not signs of weakness — they're how you stop reacting and start responding. Retirement without intention is just drift. Most high-achieving men have never asked themselves who they are without the title. Chapter X isn't about winding down; it's about solving for what comes next before the career disappears and leaves a vacuum behind it. Your eulogy is your roadmap. What you want your spouse, your kids, your grandchildren to say about you at the end is the truest picture of what you actually value. The gap between that and how you spent last Tuesday is worth sitting with.

Retirement is often framed as a financial milestone—but the deeper transition is psychological. When work ends, the identity that came with it often disappears as well.

Michael F. Kay spent decades as a CPA and financial professional before transitioning into life coaching focused on the emotional and identity side of retirement. In this conversation, he explains the origin of “Chapter X” (solve for X) and why many high-performing men reach retirement without a clear picture of what comes next.Together, Jacquie and Michael unpack the universal fears that show up in retirement—relevance, vitality, identity—and why the solution is never one-size-fits-all. Michael shares practical ways to reclaim curiosity, experiment without pressure, and let go of ego-driven competition that no longer serves you. They also talk about the value of remembering past transitions (your first day at work, your first promotion) as proof you already have the tools to navigate change. Michael describes exercises from his book—including writing a multi-perspective eulogy—to clarify values and live intentionally now. The episode closes with a powerful reminder: retirement is your chance to curate your days around meaning and joy, not “shoulds,” deadlines, or status.Key topics discussed Michael's path: musician → CPA → financial life planner → life coachWhy retirement questions start with: “What does that mean to you?” • The origin of “Chapter X” and the idea of “solve for X”What “X” really is: what gets you out of bed, meaning, purpose, curiosityWhy high-performing men often struggle more with the transitionIdentity beyond the job title: “Who are you when you're no longer your job?”The danger of “waiting to die” and the sadness of purposeless later yearsDepression in seniors and the pull of living in the pastRetirement as a new transition: reclaiming a beginner's mindNo one dies from being uncomfortable: normalizing transition anxietyUnlearning: ego, competition, ladder-climbing, and “should”Go-go / slow-go / no-go stages and using vitality wiselyContribution doesn't have to be big: small acts that lift othersJoy as a filter: if it isn't joyful, don't do itCurating your day: energy, sleep, priorities, and flexibilityThe book's process: progressive exercises + expert chapters (gerontology, psychology, exercise, couples)The eulogy exercise: clarifying values and living them nowAction steps: Define your X: Write down what you want to get out of bed for in this season of life.Try a beginner's mind experiment: Pick one new activity and commit to 3 tries—no pressure to “be good.”Audit your “shoulds”: List the things you do out of obligation; cross out one this week.Recall a past transition: Write about your first day at your first real job—what did you learn about adapting?Create a 2–3 item day: Put only 2–3 priorities on your calendar, leaving space for joy.Connect with Michael: https://michaelfkay.comGrab Michael's book on Amazon

The Yankees keep rolling and even Michael Kay's on air puns are stealing the spotlight after Fernando Cruz worked out of a massive jam against Texas. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the Yankees' hot streak, joke about Michael Kay channeling full dad joke energy, and debate whether Sean Morash could outdo him in the booth. They also dive into the Knicks taking control of their playoff series, Cade Cunningham's struggles, and why Pistons Magic has suddenly become must watch basketball. Later, Evan unloads on what he sees as hypocrisy from Gary Cohen after comments about Daniel Murphy's success with the Nationals reopened an old Mets debate. The crew revisits Cohen's past criticism of Murphy, argues about whether fans and broadcasters should own bad takes, and breaks down the current state of the Mets offense during their brutal slump. Plus, the guys react to Boomer Esiason impersonating Sean Morash, brainstorm WFAN roster additions, and continue the station's ongoing obsession with “net negatives” in New York sports.

The Yankees kept rolling with another win over Texas, but the real highlight may have been Michael Kay unloading a barrage of dad jokes during Fernando Cruz's escape act on the mound. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber react to the calls that had everyone laughing, debate whether Sean Morash could out pun Kay on the broadcast, and dive into another strong night for New York sports as the Knicks moved closer to advancing and the Mets finally snapped out of their skid. The conversation also shifts into deeper debates across the NBA and MLB, including whether Cade Cunningham deserves to be mentioned alongside Jalen Brunson long term and why the Pistons Magic series has become must watch television. Plus, the guys break down whether the Mets' offensive struggles are just a temporary funk or a sign of bigger problems, revisit an old Michael Kay postseason radio idea, and reveal the mystery name Evan wants added to the WFAN roster.
