    Ralph

    Josh returns to Define Insanity as guest co-host as he, Joe, and Justin welcome their friend and former coworker, Ralph, to the show. A Marine veteran and one of the most memorable personalities in their orbit, Ralph shares stories from his past, reflects on old times, and offers his perspective on life, friendship, and figuring things out along the way. What follows is less of a traditional interview and more of an unfiltered conversation—funny, thoughtful, and occasionally unpredictable. The group revisits shared memories, explores the roads they’ve traveled, and spends time with a friend whose outlook and experiences make for a truly unique episode. Whether he’s telling stories from years ago or reflecting on where he is now, Ralph proves that sometimes the best conversations don’t follow a script.

    Louis Pt 1

    This week on Define Insanity, Joe and Justin interview Louis, Joe’s older brother, in a powerful conversation about brotherhood, incarceration, and life after prison. Growing up, Louis was the protector and Joe was the youngest.

They discuss responsibility, regret, perspective, and the long road back. After his release, Louis committed to turning his life around. Today, he has a beautiful family and a successful career, offering a powerful example of resilience and redemption.

    Meech

    This episode of Define Insanity features Meech, a man whose life journey took him from addiction and incarceration to sobriety and service. As the son of a police officer, Meech grew up with structure and strong expectations, yet still found himself pulled into a destructive path—selling drugs, drinking heavily, and using substances. That path eventually led to jail and prison, forcing him to confront the reality of where his choices had taken him. Sobriety became the turning point. Through recovery and deep personal accountability, Meech rebuilt his life. Today, he’s sober and working as a counselor, helping others navigate addiction using the hard-earned wisdom of lived experience. This is an honest, grounded conversation about addiction, consequences, recovery, and what real change looks like when someone commits to it.
