Bold (w/ Tomi Lahren) Dec 11, 2023

Show notes

We are back 'In the Booth'! Join us as we navigate through the stormy waters of politics and life with our bold & fearless guest, Tomi Lahren. With more than 8 million followers on social media, she is known for her unfiltered commentary on cultural trends and politics. She's not just a media personality, but a powerhouse of conservative views who isn't afraid to voice her opinion. We reflect on the significance of open conversations, especially in the face of the rising cancel culture.

From a small town in South Dakota to the youngest political talk show host in history, we follow the journey of Tomi. Listen in as she sheds light on her experiences, challenges, and the personal sacrifices that come with being a public figure with strong political views.
Tomi quizzes me on my political stance by engaging me in a thought-provoking discussion on various topics, aiming to uncover the depth of my conservative or liberal beliefs. With a series of tough questions on border security, gun control, climate change, and even abortion, she puts me in the hot seat.

We encourage and underline the importance of critical thinking in a society swayed by social media and the noisy cacophony of extreme opinions. Whether you're a novice to politics (like myself) or a seasoned expert (like Tomi), this episode promises a riveting exploration into American politics, society, and everything in between. As we tackle these hot topics, we hope you're inspired to join in the dialogue and explore beyond surface-level political discourse. So prepare to question, learn, and above all, join the conversation!

The Hard Right Over The Easy Wrong (w/ Nick Bare) Oct 16, 2023

Show notes

In this episode, Shawn has a conversation with Nick Bare, the founder of BPN supplements. Nick's journey began with a small loan, and he started building his supplement company in his dorm room over a decade ago. He is not only a successful entrepreneur but also a motivational hybrid athlete, a US Army veteran, and has created a massive online community. Recently, he reached 1 million subscribers on YouTube by inspiring others through his own accomplishments of challenging goals.

During the episode, Nick shares his experience participating in a grueling "last man standing" backyard ultra marathon, where he pushed himself to run an incredible 100 miles. He discusses the sources of his motivation and emphasizes the importance of allowing one's life purpose to evolve and change. Nick encourages listeners to be open to foreclosing on identities they may have previously held and highlights the significance of having a North Star, a clear vision of where one wants to go in life.

He explains how his priorities in business have shifted due to the influence of family and why he decided to step down as CEO. Furthermore, Nick expresses his deep love for running, explaining that it provides him with much more than just a physical experience.

For beginners who struggle to start working out due to mental hurdles, Nick provides valuable advice and insights. He also distinguishes between being all in and being all consumed in various aspects of life. The episode covers topics such as disordered eating, habit stacking, and delves into the true meaning behind Nick's motto "go one more"!
