Life’s a Fight — Health
Life’s a Fight

Life’s a Fight is a metaphor for life. It’s a mindset and philosophy that shapes how you approach the challenges in front of you.

This is a low-key, down-to-earth podcast about the ups and downs of life. We’re talking everyday challenges and the big ones, too.

Using my life and experiences as the backbone—Spanish teacher turned UFC fighter, now a professional speaker with a wife and kids—you’ll hear stories, lessons and strategies to help you keep going when you don’t think you can.

If you’re feeling overwhelmed and could use some help fighting your fight, this is for you.

Hosted by former UFC fighter and teacher Charlie “The Spaniard” Brenneman.

Books 962 - Mission Possible 2 Mar 17, 2020

Show notes

One of my favorite takeaways from this book is that it's easy to say you want to do/be this or that, but what Ash is showing us is the reality of being an adventurer. Sure, he lives an amazingly adventurous life, but it's not without struggle and adversity. Today, we get our first glimpses of that.

Show notes

Boy, this is a fun one! I recently heard Ash Dykes on Joe Rogan's podcast and reached out to him on Instagram. He responded, and I recently had the opportunity to interview him for The Spaniard Show. So prior to releasing that episode, we're going to cover his book! He is such an awesome person with stories and lessons abound. His personality is so relatable. Enjoy this adventurous book into the unknown!

Books 960 - Close Calls 5 Mar 13, 2020

Show notes

We round out our time with Close Calls by taking a look at four more presidents. One was a former U. of Michigan standout footballer. One peed radioactively for six months. One was a Hollywood actor. And one was of the youngest pilots in the Navy during WWII. Who woulda thought?!?

Talks 274 - Dreadisode - Website Talk Goes Deep Mar 12, 2020

Show notes

Spanny and Dread have pulled back the curtain on the Spaniard enterprise before, but this takes the curtain right off the rod! Or something like that. Because no Dreadisode has ever gotten closer to one of their actual business development talks. Dread did not even know what they were going to talk about, so his responses were exactly what he would have babbled about off the mics. As Spanny considers how to update his website, the guys chew over where things stand with the "World's Toughest Lifelong Learner" message. The talk ends up pulling in Stoicism, Mike Rowe, the Rock, the TV show "Monk" and more. You're a fly on the wall. Enjoy the view.

Kids 89 - Her Body Can Mar 10, 2020

Show notes

Self-image and esteem is (in my opinion) one of the biggest challenges young people face, and I also believe that developing one's self-image/esteem is one of the best strategies to deal w/ adversities and challenges in life. Today's book is "a book of poetic declarations of body positivity and self-love for all young girls," and as a grown man, I can tell you this theme is universal.
