    Episode 244 - Small Decisions, Big Consequences

    Adam and Peter talk about fixing problems before they become emergencies—from replacing failing home systems and shutting off water while traveling, to spotting credit card fraud early and avoiding small debts that can wreck a credit score. They also dig into HSAs vs. FSAs, running goals and marathon plans, tech habits like mobile email apps and phone upgrades, and share a few entertainment picks along the way. Practical advice, real-world stories, and thoughtful side quests that blur the lines between work, money, technology, and everyday life. Links: The Book.

    Episode 243 - Cold Runs, Warm Beaches, and Better Wi-Fi

    In this wide-ranging episode, Adam and Peter bounce from freezing winter runs in Massachusetts to sun-soaked reflections on a long weekend in Turks and Caicos—comparing costs, culture, food, and, most importantly, internet reliability. They swap stories about parasailing highs, Caribbean sushi lows, and what really makes a place work for a “working vacation.” Along the way, the conversation drifts into guilty pleasures (holiday movies and eggnog), Netflix’s evolution and media acquisitions, old-school internet bandwidth realities, and how technology has quietly reshaped work and travel. The episode wraps with thoughtful takes on wealth, history, selling gear the smart way, and even how to make cheap coffee taste a little better.   Links: Garmin Forerunner® 965 Running Smartwatch, Colorful AMOLED Display - https://amzn.to/3MrPYZA Netflix - A Castle for Christmas - https://www.netflix.com/title/81026181 Youtube - https://youtu.be/-WqSwMaiOPg Learn More About the Hosts: PeterNikolaidis.com https://YogaWithPeter.com  https://friendswithbrews.com  Adam Bell Roaming Roan Lavender Farm https://rrlavenderfarm.com

    Episode 242 – Street Tacos and Broadcasting from Mexico City

    Adam Bell and Peter Nikolaidis take “Blurring the Lines” on the road—well, on the rooftop of an efficiency hotel in Mexico City. Peter shares his street-taco-fueled travel adventure, complete with subpar Spanish, a German passport detour, and a heroic Uber driver who navigated Maps-induced chaos. The hosts dive into local cuisine, coffee rituals, cultural quirks, guayabera shopping, and the joys (and failures) of travel tech—including Peter’s “not so nifty” router saga. Adam debuts his latest “nifty,” the Send email tool, and the two wrap up with travel plans, lavender-cast dreams, and a reminder that sometimes the best souvenirs are chocolate… or a shirt.

    Episode 241 – Seven Minutes to Spare

    In this episode, Peter returns fresh off a grueling 52.4-mile ultramarathon—crossing the finish line with just seven minutes to spare—and shares the highs, lows, tumbles, and toenails of an epic race. We dive into recovery routines, stubborn cardio, and Adam’s renewed push toward fitness, plus a surprisingly detailed exploration of black bean brownies and the science of getting them dense, not fluffy. Adam upgrades the lavender farm’s tech setup, Peter raves about the AirPods Pro 3, and we preview his upcoming trip to Mexico City along with a new language-learning tool that actually works. We wrap with laughs, feedback invites, and a linguistic pet peeve that stole the show.
