In this episode, I talk about the Texas Ibogaine initiative featured on the Joe Rogan Experience. I share my own history using opioids, including the life-saving impact Ibogaine had on me. Rick Perry and Brian Hubbard’s advocacy has Texas leading the charge and I’ve never been more proud to be a Texan. They’ve secured $100
Demons, Hoops, Kings, Woke Women
I start this episode talking about March Madness, specifically the UConn vs. Duke game. Duke led 40-21 at one point, but late in the game, one of the Boozer boys made a critical mistake. It was the most boneheaded move since Chris Webber called a timeout he didn’t have. Then I dive into the book
March Madness, Visual Acuity, Uncomfortable Conversations
In this episode, I share my trip to Lake Charles for March Madness. I met up with good friend and former guest, Michael D’Albor, at L’Auberge, which has a sportsbook & heated pools. Then I get into visual acuity and its importance, especially for baseball players. I talk about having uncomfortable but necessary conversations with
World Baseball, Magnificent 7, Indecent Proposal
I start this episode with the World Baseball Classic, sharing my excitement over the matchups, bottom-of-the-food chain umpires, and memories of playing Nintendo Baseball. Then I get into the stock market, talk about the “Mag 7’s” underperformance, the shift from growth to value, and how and why energy & materials are leading YTD, while tech
Mardi Gras, Mexican Cartels, Nazi Olympics
I start this episode with ‘funnies’ from the past week, then get into the Winter Olympics in Milan. How thrilling would it be to have a luge track nearby that you could use? Problem is there are only four of them in America. In this episode, I break down the differences between luge, skeleton, and
Why the Long Face?
In this episode, I share my ‘physiognomical theory of everything,’ and what could unaffectionately be referred to as “communist face.” Here I discuss facial structures, perceived softness, and why certain public figures project a collectivist energy based solely on appearance. This eventually turns into a broader conversation about leadership, optics, and testosterone (or lack thereof).
As It Was, Kyren Lacy, Juiced Returns (from Costa Rica)
Coming to you solo again from beautiful Costa Rica, which means “rich coast.” I’ve had lots of time to think here, while working on my tan and watching surfers in the Pacific Ocean from our balcony. In this episode, I talk about life, travel, and things on my mind lately—specifically the Kyren Lacy tragedy, which
Marijuana Legalization, Microsoft & AI, Monks Love Peace (from Prague)
Coming to you solo from Prague—my favorite city in the world. I went to Berlin last weekend and recorded an episode there with my buddy Jürgen. In this episode, I discuss “the best movie ever,” raid of John Bolton’s home, and Trump’s recollection of the raid on his home. Remember when American propagandists told us
From Combat to Entrepreneur and Thoughts on Pyschedelics with Justin Jackson
Meet Justin Jackson. There’s no friend I admire more. In fact, he’s my new favorite podcast guest and will be back for Round 2 in October. Justin’s a former Marine gunship pilot with over 25 years of service, who transitioned from combat deployments to entrepreneurship. He’s built companies ranging from a cybersecurity firm with elite
Ryne Sandberg, Ripped at 50, Russian Collusion (from Gdańsk)
In this short solo episode from the Baltic coast, I talk more about Gdańsk. This is where World War II started. Then, half-a-century later, was the first domino to fall before the collapse of the Soviet Union. I also talk about the city’s Catholic roots, the street scenes during the Saint Dominic festival, and how
How Your Childhood Shapes the Person You Become with Harvey Yergin
Harvey and I met in 2021, when he and his college sweetheart, and wife of 17 years, Amie, joined my wife & me, at Cafe Dumonde in New Orleans, for beignets & Cafe Au Laits. And we’ve stayed in touch since. Harvey’s a proud dad to Brinley (14), Harvey the 5th (12) and Clara June
