In it, he talked about what it took to build good company culture...

Alright, let's go. It's time for the August 4th, rising moon, leo aligned, Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. Caddy went to producer Carl's favorite place this side of the Mississippi. The Splish Splash Laundromat. It got a little slippery. Then importantly Donna talks about being a bonus parent, and we think a lot of listeners will relate. Tyler Hubbard has launched a single career for his own...

Donna opens the show with a game based on a little TikTok sensation that involves rating people and adding qualities to them that either upgrades or downgrades their "score." Would a girl with a dog named Dale Earnhardt be a plus or a minus for you? Caddy breaks into his own house. Well, sort of. He has an explainer for the Thursday episode. Like, literally how the episode was dead and then it was...

It's a short one here on Cadillac Jack: My Second Act. And we are only talking about length a little bit. Have you thanked your IT guy today? We sure have.

We're headed down (photographic) memory lane. If t...

Donna opens the show to talk about boundaries – in love, parenting, work, you name it. It's a follow up to a segment about children and adoption. Donna's advice? Control what you can control, which includes how you react to what you can't control. Donna takes a CDL pre-test because she is bound and determined to pull a big rig up to the Ritz-Carlton. Caddy administers the test and Pod Peep Karen T...

Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez just got hitched, and C...

Donna is actually a little worried about a part of the screening process.   We're all...

Donna and Charlotte went to the movies this weekend to see Chris Hemsworth…I mean to see the new Thor movie.

It's the Cadillac Jack: My Second Act podcast. Anyone know what time it is? Neither do we.   It's Fast and the Furious at the Jacks house now.

A lot to cover on today's jam packed episode of The Cadillac Jack – My Second Act podcast. But first…it's hot. Too hot. And Donna shut all the vents in the vents in the house because the ants are taking over. Or are they? Are we losing our minds?! We've also had a Richard the Beaver sighting…we think.
