    How Do Grown Adults Actually Make Friends?! S2 Ep31

    How do you actually make a new friend when you’re an adult? When you’re younger, friendships seem to happen naturally. You meet people at school, through sports, around the neighborhood, or just because you’re constantly around the same people. But as an adult, it’s completely different. In this episode of Shattered Wisdom, Jack and Jerett talk about what making friends looks like once you’re grown. Can coworkers become real friends? Do you meet people through hobbies, sports, the gym, your kids, or other couples? Can an online friendship be just as real as someone you see every week? And when you meet someone you actually get along with… how do two grown adults go from knowing each other to actually becoming friends without making it weird? They also get into the friendships we already have. Why do some friendships survive for decades while others slowly disappear? How much effort should a friendship require? Does someone still count as a close friend if you only talk a few times a year? And as you get older, is having a big group of friends even important—or would you rather have two or three people you know will always show up? Jack and Jerett share their own experiences, different perspectives, and probably a few opinions they'll disagree on along the way. We want to hear from you: 👇 Where have you actually made friends as an adult? And what's more important to you now: having a lot of friends or having a few really good ones? Tell us in the comments.

    From NCAA Basketball to Tri-City Flag Football: Martin's Story, S2 Ep 29 Shattered Wisdom Podcast

    From officiating NCAA basketball games to helping grow a youth flag football program, Martin has spent a huge part of his life around sports—but from some very different perspectives. This week on Shattered Wisdom, Jack and Jerett sit down with Martin. We start with his time as an NCAA basketball referee and get into what it's actually like being the person with the whistle. Martin talks about making decisions in a matter of seconds, dealing with coaches and players, handling pressure and criticism, the calls officials sometimes get wrong, and what people watching from the stands don't understand about refereeing. Then we move from the basketball court to the football field. Today, Martin is involved with Tri-City Flag Football League, a growing youth flag football program that's creating opportunities for kids to compete, learn and develop through sports. That opens up a much bigger conversation. We talk about parents on the sidelines, coaching kids, winning vs. development, playing time, sportsmanship, referee shortages, how competitive youth sports should be, and whether adults sometimes make kids' sports more complicated than they need to be. Martin has been an official, he's dealt with coaches and players at a high level, and now he's seeing sports through the world of youth athletics. Those experiences have given him an interesting perspective on one question: What are we actually supposed to be teaching our kids through sports? 🎙️ Shattered Wisdom Podcast — Real conversations. Different perspectives. #ShatteredWisdom #TriCityFlagFootball #YouthSports #FlagFootball #NCAA #YouthFootball #Basketball #SportsPodcast

    Behind The Walls: A Prison Guard & Former Inmate Tell Their Stories - S2 Ep27

    One worked behind the walls. One lived behind them. Now they're sitting at the same table. Jason returns to Shattered Wisdom after spending 24 years working in corrections—but this conversation is different. Joining us is Jerett's brother Jeremy, who spent roughly 5 years incarcerated. For the first time, we're asking a former correctional officer and a former inmate the same questions about prison and comparing their answers. How do inmates really view correctional officers? How do officers view the people they're responsible for supervising? Who actually controls the environment inside a prison? What does respect mean behind the walls? And what does spending years inside that environment do to a person long after they leave? Jason shares what he saw from the officer's side. Jeremy shares what he experienced from the inmate's side. Sometimes their perspectives couldn't be more different. Other times, they understand each other's experiences more than you might expect. This isn't about deciding who was right or wrong. It's about understanding what prison can look like depending on which side of the bars you're standing on. 🎙️ Shattered Wisdom — Real conversations. No filter. If you could ask both a former correctional officer and a former inmate one question, what would it be? #ShatteredWisdom #PrisonLife #CorrectionalOfficer #FormerInmate #PrisonStories #Corrections #PrisonReality #Podcast

    Why Men Love Tools, Trucks & Tactical Gear | Shattered Wisdom S2 Ep. 25

    WE'RE BACK TO OUR REGULARLY SCHEDULED PROGRAMMING. 😂 After taking a detour to tell The Story We Never Told, Jack and Jerett are getting Shattered Wisdom back to its roots: two friends, no script, and a conversation about something a lot of men seem to understand instinctively… Tools. Trucks. And tactical gear. Why do men love this stuff so much? Is it really about owning the biggest truck, having a garage full of tools, or buying another piece of gear we can somehow convince our wives we “needed”? Or is there something deeper behind it? In this episode, Jack and Jerett talk about the appeal of being capable, prepared and self-reliant—having the right tool for the job, building and fixing things yourself, getting outdoors, customizing your truck, collecting useful gear, and that strange satisfaction men get from owning something that's probably way more capable than they'll ever actually need. 😂 And when we say tactical gear, we don't just mean military equipment. We're talking everyday gear, outdoor equipment, EDC, flashlights, bags, knives, preparedness gear and all the other stuff guys somehow find a reason to buy. Of course, the bigger question is: Why do men seem to be wired this way? Is it preparedness? Independence? Adventure? Status? The satisfaction of solving problems? Or do we just really like cool shit? Jack and Jerett have some thoughts. 🎙️ Shattered Wisdom — Season 2, Episode 25 Real People. Real Stories. No Script. 👇 MEN: What's the one tool, truck accessory, or piece of gear you absolutely did NOT need—but bought anyway? And ladies… what does your husband keep buying that you don't understand? 😂 #ShatteredWisdom #Tools #Trucks #TacticalGear #EDC #MensPodcast #Preparedness #OutdoorGear #MensLifestyle
