Great show

This show has been great for giving me motivation throughout my day and reminding me of the type of virtues I want to have and the type of man I want to be. Pedro and his guests are all the real-deal, they really live the lessons they talk about and I look forward to more episodes and diving back through older ones too. Can't recommend enough.
