SHAWN RYAN | Do Something About It Dec 27, 2022

Show notes

It's easy to get caught up in complaining without moving into the next logical step – solutions. Let's be honest, there is a lot to complain about in today's cultural and political climate. But unless we're willing to do something about the injustices we see in society, complaining is nothing more than empty gestures and platitudes. It was Plato who said, "The price good men pay for indifference to public affairs is to be ruled by evil men." Today, I'm joined by former Navy SEAL and cultural podcast host, Shawn Ryan. We talk about why politics and entertainment seem to be more about creating controversy than anything else, the hypocrisy in elected officials on both sides of the aisle, the impending danger of an open US border and Chinese globalization, raising kids in positivity, and why instead of simply complaining, we must be willing and able to do something about it.

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:

Outrage culture
Hypocrisy coming out of the conservative side
Switching party as a publicity stunt
The race to win artificial intelligence
Contributing to the solution
The biggest problem our country is facing
The country needs someone to bring it together
The possibility of getting involved in politics
People need to take responsibility for raising their own kids
Don't just complain, do something

NICK BARE | Forward Thinking, Backward Planning Dec 20, 2022

Show notes

Men, as you're thinking about your New Year's Resolutions, it's easy to become trapped in day-dreaming . So many men look forward to what they want to accomplish but rarely do they calculate the plan to achieve their objectives and, most importantly, take the actions necessary. Today, I am joined by former Army Ranger and founder of Bare Performance Nutrition, Nick Bare. We discuss removing ego from the equation, looking at life as a series of "sprints," managing expectations with important people in your life, keeping yourself from becoming resentful and callused towards others, and the power of "forward thinking and backward planning."

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:

Men bond over working hard
Getting started now
The importance of having a vision for your business, family, and life
The importance of delegation in a growing business
Finding your identity outside of your business
Backward planning your legacy
Getting buy-in from your wife when you are "sprinting" in the business
Why fitness is non-negotiable
Considering how your goals can impact others
Building mass and running
Is there a time when enough is enough

NICK KOUMALATSOS | Become a Warrior in the Garden Dec 13, 2022

Show notes

I think it's safe to assume that if you're listening to this podcast, you're a man who is interested in becoming a more capable man. Unfortunately, the men who have come before us have, in a lot of ways, made it possible for us not to have to step up the way we as men ought to – as "savage servants."

Today, I am joined by Nick Koumalatsos – a former member of Marine Reconnaissance – to talk about what it means to be a "Savage Servant." We also discuss physical fitness as the foundation of what it means to be a man, why we must fabricate struggle, positive programming, and personal growth through humility.

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:

We don't have to make the mistakes of our parents
Gaining vision for your life at a young age
Balance between a giving your kids a better life and fabricating challenges
Sons generally look like their father
Positive programming with your sons
We need to put effort into our kids
Moving past judgment of others
Humility is being a savage servant
If you prepare, you are less likely to need it
Our foundational anchor is physical fitness and health
