    Hanging Out With Kadin Anthony Pt.2

In this episode, I reconnects with Kaiden Anthony and we go beyond his wrestling career to explore how he thinks, what he believes, and what has changed in his life since the previous conversation.  The discussion evolves around his evolving interests and curiosity before moving into aliens, UFOs, government secrecy, conspiracies, and the broader question of how we determine what is true. From there, the conversation gets more introspective as Kaiden discusses psychedelics, consciousness, perception, and whether our understanding of reality is as straightforward as we assume.  The episode also dives into music, creativity, and personal identity and grounded in family, upbringing, relationships, and what the day to day is like. The conversation closes with bigger questions about belief, uncertainty, the mysteries of life, and who Kaiden is at this point in his life. The central theme throughout the episode is: “How do you know what you know?”  Support the show "That's it for today's episode.  If you enjoyed the show, leave a review and share it with a friend.  Until next time!

    The Good, The Bad & The Wife: Husband Rebuttal

The husbands have heard the accusations… and they’re ready to defend themselves. After the wives had their turn roasting husbands, calling out our habits, and exposing all the things we apparently do wrong on episode 13, it’s time for the rebuttal. In this episode, we revisit the biggest complaints from the women’s episode, challenge some of their “facts,” call out a few double standards, and finally explain what husbands actually mean when we say or do things. We’ll admit when the wives are right—but we’re also bringing evidence, excuses, and a few accusations of our own. It’s honest, ridiculous, and probably way too relatable for anyone who’s ever been married. Because at the end of the day, nobody really wins an argument in marriage… you just eventually figure out who’s going to apologize first. So grab your spouse, pick your side, and listen to the husband’s case.

In this bonus episode, I sit down with the three madres behind Madres & Desmadres for a fun, honest conversation about the podcast, their friendship, and the real-life chaos that inspired them to create it. They talk about what Madres & Desmadres is all about, why three friends decided to start a podcast, what makes their friendship—and their chemistry—so special, and why they chose a Spanish name for an English-language show. They also share what listeners can expect from the podcast: unfiltered conversations, relatable stories, humor, honest opinions, and the kind of desmadre that happens when three comadres get together. The conversation looks ahead at the topics they’re excited to explore, including motherhood, relationships, aging, body changes, work, identity, and the everyday challenges women face while trying to hold everything together. They also discuss the conversations women don’t always feel comfortable having, how honest they plan to be, and what they hope listeners feel when they tune in. Of course, no conversation with the madres would be complete without a few rapid-fire questions, revealing who is the most dramatic, who gives advice but doesn’t always take it, who is most likely to start the desmadre, and who would get everyone into trouble. Madres & Desmadres is for women somewhere in the middle of life—raising kids, maintaining relationships, figuring themselves out, navigating change, and laughing through the chaos. It’s a place for real conversations without pretending to have all the answers. Listen to this conversation with the madres and get a preview of what’s coming on Madres & Desmadres.

In this episode, I talk to a phone guest, Yazmin Navarro, Vice Chair of the Colorado State Board of Education, for a conversation that goes far beyond her title and public role. We talk about Yazmin’s childhood, the people and experiences that shaped who she is, the challenges and turning points that influenced her journey, and what ultimately led her into education, leadership, and public service. She also shares what it’s really like to serve in a position where decisions can impact students, families, and educators across Colorado. But this conversation isn’t just about her career. We take time to get to know the person behind the public figure—her friendships, what keeps her grounded, what makes her happy, how she defines success today, and the things she’s still figuring out about herself. We wrap up with a look toward the future, including her goals, hopes for her legacy, advice for young people who want to make a difference, and a fun rapid-fire round. Most importantly, this is a conversation about the person behind the position and the life experiences that helped shape the woman Yazmin is today.

In this episode, I sit down with my two sisters and wife, all now in our 40s and early 50's and have an honest, funny, and sometimes surprising conversation about getting older, changing priorities, marriage, technology, culture, and the expectations we had for adulthood. We talk about the things we once thought mattered that don't anymore, what we've learned about ourselves and relationships, whether we'd actually want to be 18 again, and how today's world compares to the one we grew up in. It's not just a trip down memory lane. It's a conversation about how life rarely turns out exactly the way we imagined—and why that might be a good thing. Then vs. Now: same siblings, different lives, and a whole lot more perspective.

    Why Do We Care What People Think?

In this episode, my wife and I have an honest and relatable conversation about why as people, we care so much about what other people think of us. We talk about the need for approval, fear of judgment and rejection, comparison, and how social media has made other people’s opinions more visible than ever through likes, comments, views, and followers.  We share some of the things we secretly care about being judged for and explore how those insecurities can start in childhood. We also discuss the comparison trap and whether we truly want what other people have or simply want to feel like we’re doing as well as everyone else. Most importantly, we talk about when other people’s opinions actually matter, how to consider the source, and what we might do differently if we knew nobody would judge us. We wrap up by reflecting on what we would tell our younger selves and the reminder that most people are far too busy worrying about what others think of them to spend as much time judging us as we imagine.

    The Evolution of Happiness

In this episode, my wife and I reflect on 26 years of marriage and how our understanding of happiness has evolved over time. From serving together in the Marine Corps to navigating the highs and lows of family life, careers, and the everyday challenges that come with a long-term relationship, we've learned that happiness isn't a fixed destination—it's something that changes with each season of life. We talk openly about how happiness means different things to each of us, why that's perfectly okay, and how mutual respect, communication, and a willingness to grow together have strengthened our marriage over the years. Rather than expecting to always see life through the same lens, we've discovered that embracing our differences has helped us build a deeper partnership. Whether you're newly married, have been together for decades, or simply want to strengthen your relationships, this conversation offers honest insights into commitment, resilience, and finding joy in the journey together. Our hope is that our experiences remind you that lasting happiness isn't about perfection—it's about choosing each other, adapting through life's changes, and continuing to grow side by side.
