    Season 5 Episode 22: Un-fluencing with @BrandonFromVegas

    We’re thrilled to bring you this episode with the @BrandonFromVegas! We had such a good conversation that it turned out to be our longest episode ever—seriously, we could have kept going for hours! So much so that we killed the camera batteries and may have lost a few minutes somewhere towards the end. We didn't stop talking though, we just swapped in some new batteries and kept going. If you are from Vegas and not following Brandon, you need to. He’s not just a foodie influencer or your go-to realtor, he's the Dark Knight of the philanthropic world, but most importantly he is unapologetically himself. He shares his perspective of growing up a nerd in Vegas, how he met his amazing wife, Chanel, to the challenges of starting a family. Brandon doesn’t shy away from anything, let alone the "taboo" topics. We talk about everything from societal parenting norms, the US justice system, and his favorite late-night restaurants. His candid insights offer a fresh perspective on some of today’s most pressing off-the-wall topics. Shout out to Brandon for his transparency, candidness and just being a real one! Don’t forget to follow @BrandonFromVegas on all the platforms for some of the best Vegas food spots to hit up, real estate tips, and general good vibes.

    Season 5 Episode 21: You Didn’t Do It Yet

    In this episode, we kick things off with a riveting conversation around who has the most laundry, followed up with a tragic salsa spill. 
 Mackin tried to insert some cultural relevance in an Olympics segment that was almost as bad as the opening ceremony. We also discuss the quest to find a family with kids the same ages as ours to make Mackin feel like he’s not alone, and we wrap with our “Child of the Summer Rankings.”
 We have a couple more episodes this season before we take a break to take care of some personal stuff but we’re excited and we can’t thank you all enough for listening!

    Season 5 Episode 19: Reintroducing Ourselves

    Allow us to reintroduce ourselves, we are the Mackins and we’re just trying to make it…make it through parenting, marriage, schedules, fights, and everything life throws at us. It’s been a while, so we thought we’d bring it back to our roots, recording in our kitchen and talking about how this whole thing started. It’s been almost 4 years of doing this podcast and a lot has changed while at the same time, some things never change. We play “Ask Us Anything” with some questions from listeners. You’ll learn about our dream vacation that apparently will never happen. You’ll hear about a few core memories. And wrap things up with Mackin’s infamous rankings. To all our new listeners, we would love if you stuck around. We don’t have a choice! And to our loyal listeners and Real. Late. Relatable subscribers, we thank God for you every day. Thank you for listening!

    Season 5 Episode 18: Unlocking @Unlokt

    We are so excited to finally bring you guys this episode! We recorded this episode over a month ago but had issues with the audio. Lucky for us, Drew was kind enough to come back and run it a second time. If you have been living under a rock and don’t know about @unlokt or @sorrynotsorry, @drewbelcher is the man behind it all. He takes us on a podcast all the way back to our college days popping bottles and open bar at Prive. We talk about how he met his beautiful fiancee, Carolyn, and how they magically never fight. He sheds light on what it is like being a foodie with a picky eater kid. Drew shares the secret sauce to running his social media agency, how Unlokt actually started as an app, and the recipe to success for his Sorry Not Sorry empire. That mixed in with how he finessed the greatest podcast deal of all time, along bunch of other random and hilarious stories. We’re so grateful to Drew for coming, not once but twice and we’re so thankful to you all for listening. Buy everything this man sells and make sure you follow him to find out whenever he drops something new because he doesn’t miss. @drewbelcher @unlokt @sorrynotsorry @eatwithlovealways

    Season 5 Episode 17: Angie the Hood-Hopper

    In this episode, we're joined by the fabulous Angie Jaleco – a stylist, salon owner, woman of faith, devoted mom, and loving wife. You may recognize her from her impeccable sense of style or her thriving salon, but we first met Angie as a friend with an infectious love for life. She's not just a thriving salon owner, she's a master of juggling it all with grace, hard work, and extra hairspray to hold it all together. We delve into Angie's journey from starting with almost nothing as “Angie the Hood-Hopper” to becoming a success in the world of beauty and business. Her story is like right out of a book – full of childhood trauma that she used as motivation to get where she is today. But Angie's story isn't just about business – it's about faith, family, and finding the perfect balance in a chaotic world. She shares how her unwavering belief in herself and her faith have been the secret ingredients to her success. We're so grateful to Angie for sharing her salon with us and her story with our listeners. We had so much fun talking with her and we hope you'll love hearing from her too. Thank you Angie, and thank you all for listening!  To see and hear more from Angie, you need to follow her! @hairbyangiemurillo @stylewith_angelinaj @j.wyatthairartistry

    Season 5 Episode 16: The Talk

    We’re back in the stu to recap our Easter and propose what the rules and regulations should be for baskets and the bunny. We’ve now realized that when you give your kid a phone not only are you giving them access to the world, but you’re giving the world access to your kid. Well, the world got in and it prompted us to have “the talk” with Dom. We touch on some of Danielle’s birthday week and how she almost got in the car with another family, after a wine pickup. We had to include the latest birthday themes requested by Leo and as always, our child of the week rankings. If you’re new here, we go a little deeper into some more sensitive topics on the last episode of Real. Late. Relatable. If you haven’t subscribed yet, we left some juicy convos for you to listen to for the low low price of $5/month. We love you all and are so grateful for each and every listen. Thank you so much!

    Season 5 Episode 15: Mackins Go Galindo

    Danielle says it best in her intro, these two incredible people need no introduction nor could we do one justice. In this episode, we're joined by Josh and Krystal Galindo. You may recognize them from seeing their famous Double G’s around Vegas, but we were first introduced to them as Beckham’s parents. They are amazing parents, extremely hardworking and they have such great perspectives on life. We talk about their keys to success in business and marriage by sticking to their unique strengths. Josh touches on the idea that life is less about searching for balance because you can’t balance chaos. And that they find a sweet spot centering their 24/7 lives in a rhythm that ebbs and flows appropriately.  We talk about tapping into a “no, no” mindset that allows them to accomplish their goals without fear of falling short. We share stories about the importance of youth sports and its impact on developing discipline, and accountability and weighing the pros and cons of kids playing multiple sports vs. focusing on one primary sport. Lastly, Josh shares the unbelievable story of his arranged kidnapping when he was a teenager and how it turned out to be one of the best things that has ever happened to him. We’re so grateful to the Galindos for taking time out of their incredibly busy lives to share with our listeners. We had such a fun time sitting with them again and we hope you enjoy this episode. Thank you for listening! To get more from Josh and Krystal, be sure to follow them @iamjoshgalindo and @iamkrystalgalindo or visit www.galindogrouprealestate.com.
