Built In Real Time is a podcast about getting better out loud. Jesse and Jason are two friends, two Marine vets, and two respiratory therapists who got tired of waiting for the right time to start, so we just started.We talk about the real stuff. Leadership, fear, faith, being a father, staying disciplined, and actually growing. Not from the top looking down, but from right in the middle of it, still figuring it out like everybody else. Jesse works the ER and ICU and builds on the side. Jason is out there starting his own painting business from the ground up. Same fight, different lanes, both of us building something real while the tape rolls.This is the new frontier. Walking into the unknown on purpose, getting uncomfortable, and becoming the men, fathers, and leaders we are supposed to be. No script. No filter. Just the work.Pull up a seat. Let's build.

    Build Before You’re Ready | Self-Doubt, 75 Hard, and Taking the Shot

    In Episode 3, Jason and Jesse get honest about the discomfort of putting their work into the world—the negative self-talk, the fear that nobody is listening, and the temptation to quit before momentum has a chance to build. They revisit 75 Hard, balancing discipline with 12-hour hospital shifts, parenting, sleep, and real-life responsibilities. Jason shares his progress toward launching BRT Painting, while Jesse talks about growing RESPTAC, building with AI, and wondering whether he’s moving fast enough. The conversation ultimately comes back to perfectionism, resistance, and a simple lesson: build before you feel ready. Put it out, learn from reality, and fix the problems as you go.

    Do It Anyway | Discipline, Competition, and 75 Hard

    In this episode, Jason and Jesse get into the mindset of doing the hard thing anyway. They talk about competition showing up early through youth sports, learning to push through heat, discomfort, doubt, and self-defeat, and why mindset matters long before adulthood. The conversation shifts into discipline, personal standards, and how small daily choices either sharpen you or soften you. They also break down 75 Hard and Live Hard, what the program actually builds, why inconvenience is part of the point, and how discipline starts bleeding into everything else like work, fitness, parenting, business, and self-respect. This one is about not waiting until conditions are perfect. If it matters, do it anyway.  Built In Real Time. Building the vision, taking the hits, and documenting the climb.

    Why We're Here

    There's gotta be more to this than getting up, punching the clock, barely making it, and watching the rest go to taxes. That's why we're here. This is episode one. We introduce ourselves, lay out the mission, and get into why we're doing this in the first place. A little about us. We're both Marine vets and respiratory therapists with about 14 years in. Jesse did two combat tours in Ramadi, came home, washed dishes during the 2008 crash, and worked his way into respiratory therapy. Now he's building Respiratory Tactician, a bedside app for clinicians that he taught himself to make. Jason did his tours, ran his dad's painting company, and is standing up his own painting business from the ground up. This show is for the people who want more than the daily grind. The ones putting in work in silence, fighting doubt and setbacks, betting on themselves when nobody else will. We're not at the top of the ladder. We're in the trenches with you, documenting the climb in real time. What we get into: Our story, the Marine Corps, and how we both landed in respiratory therapy The BRT mission and who this show is really for Jason on starting a painting business: licensing, tools, and what it actually costs to begin Jesse on building the Respiratory Tactician app from zero coding experience Why most people quit when it gets hard, and how to keep going Figure out your vision and bet on yourself Built In Real Time.
