1645 D&S: Doug's Wedding, Construction Equipment, and no Voicemails Sep 05, 2025

Show notes

So what does today's title mean? You'll have to ask Carnac the Magnificent! Don't know who Carnac the Magnificent is (which is not surprising, because if you did, you probably wouldn't know what a "podcast" is)? That's Johnny Carson's Tonight Show character that Doug likes to quote. OK, spoiler alert, the answer is "What is today's episode about." Now you're probably thinking "But I thought it was a bit and it was supposed to be funny?" Well, that's true, but that was no less funny than most of Carson's jokes. Don't believe me? Here, check out a clip:

Carnac The Magnificent - Yahoo Serious, Turner and Hooch, and Hershey Bar | Carson Tonight Show

And if you'll be anywhere near Austin or Houston, TX on Oct. 4, you can meet Doug and Strickland in person and drive some cool construction equipment. Check it out here:

Crap, now my Google algorithm is all messed up. I'll be seeing Johnny Carson and construction ads for the next 3 weeks. Damn you, Nice Guys on Business!!!!!!

Lamell McMorris: Turn Success To Significance Sep 01, 2025

Show notes

Dr. Lamell McMorris is a nationally recognized leader at the intersection of business, justice, and social impact—and the author of The Power to Persist: 8 Simple Habits to Build Lifelong Resilience. In his debut book, Dr. McMorris shares the mindset and habits that fueled his rise from Chicago’s South Side to the national stage, offering readers a practical blueprint for turning challenges into opportunities and pressure into purpose.

Building on the book’s mission, he launched The Power to Persist podcast, where he sits down with changemakers, leaders, and innovators for candid conversations on resilience, justice, and transformative leadership. Each episode delivers real stories and actionable insights designed to help listeners navigate obstacles and lead with impact.

Beyond the page and the mic, Dr. McMorris is the founder and CEO of Phase 2 Consulting, a Washington, D.C.–based firm advising Fortune 100 executives, nonprofit leaders, and public sector decision-makers on aligning purpose with performance. He is also the founder of Greenlining Realty USA, a national mission-driven development firm revitalizing communities across the U.S.—starting with his own childhood neighborhood of Woodlawn, Chicago. Greenlining partners with local municipalities to create mixed-use developments that deliver large-scale economic impact and revitalize underserved areas.

As a lifelong advocate of civil, economic, and human rights, Dr. McMorris serves on numerous nonprofit and college boards and volunteers with several youth-focused and mentoring organizations. He is frequently recognized for his entrepreneurial leadership and pragmatic, high-impact approach to advocacy and is often invited to speak at conferences and events nationwide.

Dr. McMorris holds a Bachelor of Arts in Religion and Society from Morehouse College, a Master of Divinity in Social Ethics and Public Policy from Princeton Theological Seminary, and a Doctorate in Law and Policy from Northeastern University. Guided by the belief that persistence isn’t just how you keep going—it’s how you create lasting change—he continues to use his platform to inspire others to rise, lead, and persist.

1643 D&S: Doug Needs Some Tree Help Aug 29, 2025

Show notes

If you listen all the way through, you'll hear that they boys cut the episode because Doug needed to meet a college student to cut his palm fronds down. Guess what? Total scam! Well, not a "total" scam, but it wasn't a "struggling college student" as advertised, it was a full-blown landscaping company that wanted $750.00 to do about 30 minutes of work. That's some bull-shit, I'm sure he'll talk about it more on next week's episode.
