Join Dave Schofield as he offers some unpopular opinions about the Pittsburgh Steelers that go against the general narrative. This week Dave looks at the problem of looking so much at the NFL draft that the actual football played on the field is secondary.

In this episode of the GaryVee Audio Experience, I share the keynote I gave in Brisbane in 2019 and the subsequent Q&A where I challenge the audience to redefine their view of success and failure. I explain why the struggle and "losing" I experienced as a child prepared me to succeed today and why a lack of patience is crippling so many entrepreneurs. I give tactical advice on where to put your content, why you need to create an "ungodly" amount of it, and why the "fear of people's opinions" is holding you back. You'll learn about:Why I love losing and why you should, tooHow to redefine success by prioritizing happiness over moneyMy advice on why you must produce content on platforms like LinkedIn and TikTokThe fundamental importance of self-awareness and patienceWhy contextual, contemporary communication is the key to all successThe importance of selflessness in your content

In Unpopular Opinions, the Cracktastic Plastic crew leans into those toy takes that don't always line up with the majority—whether that means calling out beloved lines that never clicked with us or defending figures and brands we think deserve way more love. From hot-button collecting debates to surprising personal favorites, this episode is all about honest opinions, friendly disagreement, and celebrating the fact that collecting is personal. You may nod along, you may shake your head—but either way, it's all part of the fun.  We're also excited to welcome back Larry Watanabe, returning to the show for the first time since his appearance on episode 32, What Makes a Good Toy Room. Larry brings a thoughtful, collector-focused perspective to every conversation, and his insights pair perfectly with a topic built around differing viewpoints. Whether he's challenging the room or backing up a stance with years of experience, Larry's return adds depth, balance, and a familiar voice to an episode all about standing by your opinions. We also spotlight Miller's Comics, Cards, & Collectibles during our Store Tour segment and talk about whether it's a shop we should visit someday.

If you tuned into our latest live stream, you know we didn't hold back. Usually, we're joined by New York Times best-sellers or indie superstars, but this week, it was just us, Chris and Chris, getting real with the community. We dove into the “unpopular opinions” that every writer thinks but few dare to say, and we launched something that could change your publishing journey forever. It was a fun conversation. Full of questions from the audience and more.Comments on the video on YouTube:“Really interesting show guys. Nice one.”“Superb show!”The “Hot Takes” That Divided the Chat.We opened the floor to the writing community's most controversial takes on literature. From the broad application of symbology in Dan Brown's work to the structural repetitiveness of the Harry Potter series, no giant was safe.While we all appreciate the success of these icons, we discussed how certain “formulaic” approaches can be a double-edged sword for new writers. Based on our Facebook thread that had hundreds of replies to the question: what highly popular book do you dislike?Why Most Books Get Rejected.The title of the show wasn't just clickbait. Rejection is the one thing every author has in common, but why does it happen? Often, it isn't the story itself, it's the package.A weak pitch, a cluttered synopsis, or a query letter that misses the mark can end a book's journey before an agent even reads Chapter One. We've seen it time and again over 380+ interviews, and that's why we decided it was time to take action.BIG ANNOUNCEMENT: The WCCS Query Clinic is OPEN!We are thrilled to officially announce the Query Clinic, hosted right here on our Substack. We wanted a way to give back to the community and provide the kind of hands-on help that usually costs a fortune.How it works:* For Paid Members: Once a month, we will open a dedicated thread where you can submit your work for critique. We will select submissions to be showcased and edited in a monthly video, explaining what we changed and why.* For Founding Members: We are offering a guarantee. Once a month, we will personally work through your first 10 pages, your synopsis, and your pitch letter. Plus, we'll provide a curated list of agents specifically suited to your work and advice on how to hit “send” with confidence.Our goal is to turn this Substack into a workshop environment where we can all develop our craft together. Don't be shy, it's all for the good of the community!What's Next for WCCS?The year is only getting busier! Mark your calendars for:* The London Book Fair (May): Chris and I will be there in person, interviewing industry leaders in a very posh setting.* Harrogate (July): We've been invited back to the world-famous crime writing festival for the 04th time in a row!* Next Week's Guest: Get ready for something a little different as we welcome Dr. Trina Reed, a Canadian sexologist. We'll be talking about her new book and perhaps asking some “inappropriate” questions about love triangles in fiction the day before valentines day.Ready to fix your query?
