If you like where you are and do not want to go anywhere else, good for you. However, for...

In this Episode we talk about how do you know your worth. This is an uncommon topic to talk about or even discuss, everyone is different  and we all have gifts. Even though we are at different stages in life and have different gifts, we all have know or worth. If you don't know your worth, spend time thinking of the value you bring others. We also get into another story of Izzy losing his man...

In this episode we dive deep into one of the military's most sought out pass times, STRIP CLUBS. No military person is complete without a story from a strip club, young men and women have all fallen prey to a siren's lap dance. Check out as Izzy and I talk about some of our top strip stories.

As the first EP for 2021, we wanted to bring yo...

In this EP Izzy and I give a moment of silence for his laptop of 12 years. It threw me off that even with a new laptop, Izzy still had issues with the camera. We dive into some random topics, especially about what his life would be like if he was partying in studio 54.

In this episode we talk the ideas and truths of what it means to be driven. Standards that have been placed or voluntary placed, helps you rise above the competition. Current society allows you to be great, with very little effort, since everyone is weak and not doing anything. 

It's great to sit down and talk about the military. However, we need to grow mentally, physically, and our assets for the future. Go over what index funds are and why it's important to invest now. If you invest $3K when a child is born for 60 years at 15%, that child would have over $13 million once they turned 60.  https://www.investor.gov/financial-tools-calculators/calculators/compound-int...

Izzy and I sit down and discuss my personal method of how I do things. This is something that I've been working as time goes on. This has helped with landing jobs, moving across the country or trying something new. Check it out. 

Izzy and I sit down to talk about some of difference mentors play in the Military vs. Civilian life. The one thing rarely discussed in the military, is how someone will always make sure you have somewhere to go during the holidays. There are some people that don't care about you, but some people really care. They care so much that they will invite you over for the holidays. 

In this episode, Izzy and I talked about whats it's like to have a girl and knowing she's gonna like boys. We also take a trip down memory lane and talk about how military people have messed up knees and back. Along, with one time in Honduras a CSM, had us AF people do a fun run with a big bolder.
