A highlight from A Sober Journey to Becoming an Author

"You know, I had maybe 100 or 150 failed attempts behind me, you know, of me saying, that's it, no more. I'm not doing it today. I honestly can't say what the difference was that one time, but that one time I was well and truly freaking done. And I just said to my wife, I have to get help. It's out of control. I can't control it. And it was terrifying. Hey, everybody. Welcome to the Addiction Unlimited podcast, where you get to learn everything you want to know about addiction and recovery. I'm your host, Angela Pugh, co -founder of Kansas City Recovery, Life Coach, and Recovering Alcoholics. To learn more about me, you can listen to episode zero on your podcast app or find us on the web at addictionunlimited .com. Hi, Will. Thank you so much for coming on and doing this show with me. It's so good to see you. Hey, Angela. Good to see you too. Take a couple of minutes and tell everybody a little bit about you and what you do. Thank you. So my name is Will Thacher, and I'm an author of addiction fiction novels. I'm also an addiction fiction nerd and fan. And that's my little world. I'm a sober guy and I love these stories. I'm a big lifelong avid reader. And I just sort of found this space, which there's really not that much in it. There are a handful of authors that have done some great work and I'm passionate about it. And so that's how I'm doing it. There are so many typical books that you get in the recovery space, right? It's not self -help based. It's not personal story based. It's not a memoir or a how -to or a guide, right? This is really reading for enjoyment. Totally. Yeah, that's exactly right. And you know, there are so many good books that are in the categories that you just listed. And there are new ones out every year and it's very well represented. Personally, I love fiction. It's something that I grew up with. I always had a book in my hands. And from my perspective, it's 90 % enjoyment. And there is a 10 % value in terms of relating this to my recovery, reading about people who are going through the same types of things, albeit in much more extreme circumstances in my books, relating that back to my own recovery. When we watch a movie, for example, that has characters in recovery or in active addiction, I have a very direct emotional reaction to that because I've lived through that pain. And I won't quite call it a spiritual experience, but certainly I'll have an emotional experience, a connection to those characters. So I do think that there is some little residual benefit to my recovery when I read these books. Yeah, I would agree with that for sure. And I think the audience can relate to this also in that recovery can be heavy work. Especially in the beginning, it takes so much of you and your time and your energy and it can start to feel very overwhelming. So to not constantly be immersed in the self -help, the personal development, sobriety, recovery, change your life, get your act together, to have something that has some pieces of that in the familiarity of recovery and recovery language, but to have it be just for enjoyment, I think is so powerful. And I'm really excited to watch this category grow. It's nice to hear you say that. And I personally agree with that entirely. This is deadly serious stuff, literally. But also, I'm a big AA guy and we always say there has to be some fun in it or else people aren't going to want it. And so I think that this is a way to keep a foot in the work, keep the themes and the ideas that you're trying to bring into your mind, trying to bring into your life and take a little bit of a break from the hardcore recovery aspect of it. I think it's worth mentioning that a lot of what I write is definitely not so much for people in their first three or six months of recovery. There are much better things that those people should be reading than fiction. Frankly, their lives are at stake. My work is really much more for people who have a little bit of sobriety under their belts, they're living a sober life and they want to relate to and hear stories about sober characters that are out there. I'm getting ready to publish my second novel now. And what I write about is what's interesting to me. What's going on in my life and in my head, which are next step sober problems. Okay, you got sober, your life got good, then what? Because that's what I'm interested in at this point. And that's what a lot of my characters go through. Yeah. I appreciate you saying that. And it reminds me of when I was new, I'm a 12 step person also. And I remember when I was really new sitting in those rooms and for several months, right? Not understanding a lot of the lingo and like the one liners. And now I love those things, right? Because I've been in it for a hundred years and it all makes sense to me. And it's this beautiful sort of shorthand, like you can pop out this one liner and it has so much profound meaning. Once you get it, it simplifies things. But when I was new sitting in there, I was like, what the hell are these people talking about? I just didn't understand those things. So I appreciate you pointing that out, that there is some depth of knowledge, but I think it can also bring some really great familiarity to the recovery world and some of that terminology and what it means. So I think it could go both ways, but you definitely want to have some basic understanding of a sober life. Yeah. I mean, that's why everybody recommends what they recommend to the newcomer, right? 90 and 90, there's an immersion that should happen in the beginning so that to your point, you start to speak the language and you start to think in those terms. And then from that point on, yes, you don't have to necessarily go to a meeting or two or three a day like I did from my first three to six months in sobriety. Yeah, for sure. So let's talk a little bit about your personal journey. What was it for you? At what point did you recognize that you really had a problem? I mean, I knew I had a problem for a good year or two before the rest of the world was rudely introduced to it. My problem came to light to ring a family vacation. I've actually heard a couple of other people tell versions of this story in the rooms, which was gratifying to me. I had spent the last really year, year and a half of my using and drinking in isolation, and I had gotten very good at hiding away from my family and from friends and doing my thing, doing at that time what I thought of as whatever I had to do to get through the day, surviving in this head of mine. And then we booked a vacation. I went away with not just my direct family, but my extended family for two weeks, and there was no hiding. There was no sitting in my office behind two closed doors, and it was unmanageable. And so I ran around for the first half of it, trying to keep a buzz going, trying to figure out a way to do this. And it just became clear that not just to me, but to everybody else, that this was a real problem and it needed to be addressed. And it was really humiliating to have that happen in such a public way, but probably the best thing that could have happened. What did you do when you really understood, okay, this has to stop, right? We get to that, what I call what everybody refers to as that sort of rock bottom moment. And just to clarify, because there is a misconception about rock bottom, rock bottom doesn't have to be a huge extravagant event. Rock bottom is just the very moment you hit in your head that you're like, oh my gosh, I cannot live like this anymore. Something has to change. So you have that epiphany. What was your next thought and next action to get started in making the change? Well, I had maybe 100 or 150 failed attempts behind me of me saying, that's it, no more. I'm not doing it today. I honestly can't say what the difference was that one time, but that one time I was well and truly freaking done. And I just said to my wife, I have to get help. It's out of control. I can't control it. It's totally out of my hands. Whatever happens, happens. And it was terrifying. So we came home from the vacation and my plan was to get myself into a rehab, go spend 28 days somewhere and let them tell me what to do. But in the meantime, I decided to hit a couple of AA meetings while I got that all sorted out. I have a good close cousin who's in recovery, who's a huge AA proponent. I actually have two cousins, both of whom I adore and whose lives are incredible because of recovery. And they always talk about AA. I guess they talked about it in front of me for a reason. We call that planting seed. I think that's right. So I went to AA. I sat down in a meeting and I heard my first couple of sober stories and I was hooked. I tell people that's what got me sober was the stories that I heard before there was fellowship, before there were steps, before there was service, any of the other key aspects of recovery. Before I even knew what those things were, I heard those stories. I read myself into every one of them, even if the circumstances were totally different from mine. I loved the arc of the qualification, what happened, how it is, how it is now. Just people amazing being incredibly honest. And I really thought, okay, if they can do this, I can do this. They sound just like me. They're literally saying the things that are inside my head. So I must be in the right place. I'm not a stupid person. I can connect those two things. I think I can do this. So I held off on the rehab thing because I thought I could, the great and powerful me, could sort this out on my own. But I did AA immersion, like two or three meetings a day. My work was in the garbage at that point. It turned out to be a blessing in some ways. And so I was doing two or three meetings every day and following guys around and that was how I got sober. Hearing you say all of that just again takes me back to my early days and so much the same experience. And I know a ton of people listening right now are nodding their heads in agreement, where you sit and you hear the other people share. And this isn't a 12 step specific thing. People say the same thing in my online community, and I'm sure they have the same experience in other people's online communities. But you hear people share their stories and you hear your story just with their details. And it's a really powerful experience when you can sit back and go, oh wow, I'm not the only one. Because I think in active addiction, it's so isolating. Even if you're not isolated physically, even if you're going out and drinking with people and you're not isolating in that way, mentally and emotionally, psychologically, it's so isolating because you feel so different from everyone else. I know for sure I felt like I was the biggest piece of garbage on the planet. I was disgusting. I thought my drinking was worse than everybody's, right? Because in my immediate friend group, I was probably the worst, you know? And then I got to the rooms and I hear other people talking and sharing those stories. And I was like, oh wow, okay. I'm not so isolated. I'm not on this one man island all by myself. I do have people that I can connect with and that truly understand. Yeah, totally. And there's a whole room full of them here nodding along the way that I am. For me personally, that's how I learn the best is through stories, which is why I do what I do. It's a passion of mine. But the thing that you pointed to just now that was really powerful for me also was just the self -talk that was going on in my head at that point was so vicious. It was so negative. And I was just brutalizing myself by the time I got in there. Like you said, I was the worst person. Let's be honest, I did some pretty bad things. And so there was some evidence available for that theory. But that's not the whole story. I was also a sick person. And I'd also done some really good things. And so being among people who have felt that way in the past and getting their compassion back in such a direct way was life -saving for me. Yeah. That's so important what you just said too, that it wasn't the whole story. I always say, we are all a thousand piece puzzle and I definitely have some bad pieces. I have some trauma pieces and I have pieces of my personality that can be really unpleasant. I have bad pieces, but that's not all my pieces. We all have good ones and bad ones. And luckily because of recovery, my bad pieces have gotten a little bit smaller and my good pieces have gotten a little bit bigger. But it's important to remember that, that it's not the whole story. And just like as a sober person, I'm sure you'll agree with this too, being sober a long time, my sobriety isn't my whole story either. There's still all these other pieces and facets of my personality that are super important that I have to be mindful of. And I have to nurture all those pieces too. Totally. Yeah. And maybe the most valuable thing that I learned in early sobriety was to discount my thoughts by about 90%. For sure, yes. Whether they were good or bad. On the long list of things that I have no control over, my thoughts is at the top of that list. This brain just cranks out bad data on a regular basis. So the most useful thing that I can do is to understand that. And when I get an idea or a thought or whatever it is, say, okay, that's just a thought. That's not a fact. That is not how the world is. That is not how this person is. That is not how I am. It's just the latest thing that comes out of this head of mine. And I learned to try to lead as much as possible with my heart and not with my head because my heart is much more reliable. My love, my compassion, if I lead with that, I really can't go too wrong. I can't really mess things up too badly. I'd been in the process of messing things up for a long time. So I was in the stop messing things up business at that point. And so that was a very good strategy for me for a long time. It remains a good strategy. Yeah. Remembering too that those thoughts don't put down the drink. Those thoughts in my head, that self -talk and how vicious it was, didn't magically disappear when I stopped chugging tequila on a daily basis. That's the stuff. That's really the recovery part that you have to work on and shift that. And just having that understanding is so powerful too that I couldn't trust what my head was telling me early in the game. I needed outside counsel. I needed another human that was farther along in the process that I could talk those things through. I think, well, this is what my head's telling me. This is what I think I should do to have that person go, oh, no, that's not what you want to do at all. Exactly. Yeah. I totally relate to that. For me, the tone of the voice changed over time. It was equally unreliable, but it was not as negative over time. And that's actually one of the themes in Killing Hurt is that the main character, because he's been sober for a little while and he feels better and his life conditions have improved and he's living a sober life, he becomes much more confident in this voice in his head and he doesn't realize that he's still full of bad ideas. So he has all of these sort of judgments and all of his thinking and he's so sure of them because he's a smart guy and he establishes in the beginning of the book how smart he is and how vital that is to his character, but he's wrong all the time. It's like amazing how often this guy's wrong and that's me. That's how I walk through the life. That's kind of what I like to do with the book is whatever I'm journaling on, whatever I'm 10th stepping in my recovery, it ends up being sort of embedded in one of these characters somehow. Okay. So you just mentioned 10th stepping. So I want you to explain to everybody what that is because a vast piece of my audience is not going to understand what that means. Oh, sure. Yeah. So steps 10, 11 and 12 are in AA, the maintenance steps, meaning these are the steps that you're supposed to do for the rest of your life once you finish your step work. So the 10th step is essentially your inventory. So each night, the way that I do inventory is that I sit down with a notebook every night and I just write what's going on in my head and then I look at what's there and I try to identify where are my character defects at play in this story that's playing out in Will Thatcher's head. I point them out. I'm like, okay, there's some greed, there's some dishonesty, there's some fear, a lot of fear in my inventory.

I'm on a bunch of pop culture podcasts this week. Did a rewatchables on Monday night. We did Black Hat. Also was on the Big Picture. We did a big Denzel Washington movie draft. I got way too competitive. And then on Wednesday night, Amanda Dobbins and I on the Prestige TV Podcast, we broke down the first two episodes of season three of The Morning Show. The most ridiculous show on television, not just this year, but every year it's on. It just wins the title automatically. If they had a ridiculous show category at the Emmys, they wouldn't even have any of their nominees. I mean, maybe winning time would get nominated. I don't know. But Morning Show just clears it out. What a batshit, crazy, ridiculous show. Wow. It's really like they created a podcast thing so we could just break down the morning show. That's really, I think, the real reason behind podcasting in general. Coming up on this podcast, Million Dollar Picks and a little Vikes Eagles at the top. And then editor at large at the Ringer, Brian Curtis, who was also a giant Cowboys fan, comes on and talk about the Cowboys. Could this be the year? Keep saying that, but could this be the year? And we talked some NFL stuff. We talked some sports media stuff. We talked about documentaries and just all the stuff that happens when Brian Curtis comes on. Oh, we talked about Joe Buck and Troy Aikman as well, who have hit a really interesting milestone as a combo. So that happened. And then Kevin Hench, my buddy, the Red Sox fired their GM today, and we couldn't resist spending 20 minutes recapping. One of the four -year oddest, strangest four -year runs the Red Sox have ever had. And we're still in the middle of it. And I still don't understand why Mookie Betts isn't on the team but also like, man, since the 2018 World Series, the Red Sox have just been a hot dumpster fire. And I say that knowing that they almost made the World Series two years ago, but when you look at everything that happened, wow. So Hench comes on and talk about that. It is all next. First, our friends from Pearl Jam. ["Pearl Jam Theme Song"] All right, I'm taping this part of the podcast. It is 11 .31 East Coast time. East Coast Bill is here. East Coast Bill is in Boston. I was visiting my daughter and doing some other stuff. And Thursday Night Football came on and I thought it would be a great idea to do the top segment after Eagles Vikings. East Coast Bill fell asleep at halftime. It was a new record for me. I guess I'm old. I have another birthday coming up this week. This is why I live on the West Coast because I talk about sports for a living. And East Coast Bill gets a little sleepy when the game is kind of boring and plodding along. So East Coast Bill missed some time, had to catch up, had to do a little rewind. Fortunately, there's so many commercials. I was able to still watch anything, but the Eagles beat the Vikings. They're now 2 -0 on the season. And I would say it's an uninspiring 2 -0. They probably shouldn't have covered against the Pats. They could have lost. This game they win, they don't cover. I guess on the good side, the DeAndre Swift, they traded like a 15th round pick in 2038 for them. And this little way they put together their offense where they load up on wide receivers, they hit the jackpot with hurts, and then they just say, you know what we're going to do? Just grab running backs because there's 98 of them every year. We're just going to grab two and pay nothing for them. So offensively, they look great. Defensively, you saw it last week with the Pats. The Pats were able to throw it on them. Mack almost had 300 yards in the last three quarters of that game. This game, Kirk Cousins, over and over again, heroically going for the cover, finally gets it. The Vikings cover, they don't win. Home team's now 5 -12 against the spread this season. Underdogs are 10 -7 against the spread. But for the most part, not allowed to report, the Eagles just state. They messed around in the first quarter and then said, screw it, and ran the ball down Minnesota's throat. I was thinking, Eagles, Cowboys, if you were going to make a combined over or under for wins for them, and I gave you 26, would you go over or under 26 wins combined for the two teams? They're 3 -0 right now. I would probably go over, especially when you look at the NFC and you think Philly, Dallas, San Francisco, lock those three down. I like Green Bay, Detroit, maybe New Orleans, Atlanta, and maybe that's the seven for the playoffs. And then you have Tampa Bay and the Rams. Who knows what was real and what wasn't real. Tampa Bay beat Minnesota by three in week one. We're like, oh, Tampa Bay, that's interesting. But now Minnesota's 0 -2, maybe that doesn't even matter. Rams, who knows? I mean, they just have so few good players that the moment two of them get hurt, it feels like their free fall will happen. So the NFC is already kind of uninteresting, I guess is my bigger point. Unless the Giants can rally, and who knows after the 40 -0 debacle last week, they're playing Arizona this week, so they looked out of that. But for the most part, it seems like three good teams, maybe the Packers, maybe the Lions, maybe the Saints, and then we're going to have a really bad seven seed. So if you're Minnesota, and you're looking at 31 of 270 teams started 0 -2 and made the playoffs since 1990. 31 out of 270. I can't do math, but that's not good. If you're Minnesota, at what point do you consider trading Cousins? Cousins was all over the place on the internet this week as a possible Rogers replacement. He makes 35 million this year, that's it. The Jets, I think, could do some chicanery if they wanted to. They have this thing where the Packers, it's a conditional, I think second, that turns into a first, but the Packers would have to waive the right for the condition. Clearly, Rogers is going to play 70 % of the plays, but still, they'd have to figure out some way. But if you're the Jets, could you somehow trade for Cousins and save your season? We're going to find out a lot about the Jets this week against Dallas. They get annihilated and they're one -on -one for the season, but annihilates Dallas them and they have to look at their offense and go, all right, we have a really good team. What are we going to do? Is it Jacoby Brissett or do we swing big and try to get Cousins for a year? Cousins has over 700 yards and six TDs in the first two weeks. He's been a fantasy god. I don't know how that plays out. I wish it was like basketball where I could just put stuff in the trade machine and see if it's going to work. For some reason, we made football trades more complicated than basically anything on the earth. I have no idea how the Jets would trade for Cousins, how it'd work, what the mechanics of it would be. What's he worth? Is he worth a first rounder for one year? Is he worth a third rounder? You just never know. Again, DeAndre Swift went for a 15th rounder in 2038. Cousins, I have my eye on because if you're Minnesota, you're not good. You were completely lucky last year to go 13 and four, whatever it was. Now that's evened out and maybe you start looking around and going, all right, let's pack in this year. I don't know what would have to happen, what number they would have to get to. Would they have to be one and four, one and five, one and six? But Cousins to the Jets, it's a fun talk radio topic, at least. We're not doing talk radio here. We're doing sleepy sports podcasting, but Cousins to the Jets has always felt right. It's always felt kind of perfect. He always just felt like a Jet waited to happen at some point in his career. The Jets fans listening to this right now are like, how can he keep doing this to us? We just had the Rogers thing. We had Zach Wilson. Now you're gonna throw Cousins at us. But again, Cousins, a little bit of a turnaround. He was in that Netflix show. He's kind of the big winner of quarterbacks with Mariota being the big loser. But I feel like the tide's turning on Cousins. Even Primetime Kirk today, always a disaster, gets the cover. Who knows? Put him in New York. We'll see. Philly's got, they're just basically have to figure out what their team is. They've already had a bunch of injuries and they even had a little AJ Brown, Jalen Hurts. Who knows what happened on the sidelines there, but didn't look awesome. But they have two months here to figure out their team. They're a big stretch. Week nine, Sunday, Dallas, that's home in Philly. Bi -week, week 11 at Kansas City on a Monday night. Week 12, Buffalo home. Week 13, San Francisco home. And week 14 at Dallas. So again, Dallas at KC, Buffalo, San Francisco at Dallas. And that's gonna be the five game stretch that determines are we a one seed? Are we a two seed? What is our season gonna look like? And they just have to get there. They have to stay healthy and they have to get to that point. So not a lot of lessons from Philly, Minnesota. Do I regret staying up? Although I guess I didn't stay up because I got this little nap in at halftime.

A highlight from The Hyatt Regency Skywalk Disaster

"Welcome to Stuff You Should Know, a production of iHeartRadio. Hey and welcome to the podcast. I'm Josh and there's Chuck and it's just the two of us and we're going to do just fine. I have a good feeling because this is Stuff You Should Know. We've been at it for decades now. Well, in different decades. Right. That's how people get you. They say stuff like that. That's right. Big COA for this one. It is about a very gruesome tragedy that we're going to detail. And we're going to talk about a little bit of the gruesome stuff but not get too, you know, detailed. Because it was a terrible tragedy but we just want to alert listeners, especially our younger listeners, that some of this stuff is pretty terrible. That is the events of the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Kansas City, Missouri in 1981. Yeah. And that was just one year after that hotel opened, right? That's right. This is the Hyatt Regency, a 45 -story, 700 -room hotel that opened in July of 1980. It was a part of a big suite, a complex called the... Yeah. The Crown Center Complex. And it had retail, it had housing, all kinds of stuff owned by the Hallmark Corporation. That's where the crown came from. Because remember, if you turn a Hallmark card over, sometimes it says crown? Well, then their logo is a crown. Oh yeah, that too. But this hotel, Chuck, if you go back and look at pictures of it pre -disaster, it was magnificent. Like, if you looked up, you would see that there was a high hall, a walkway, right over your head. And that was actually one of three that were kind of like the signature design of this atrium at the Hyatt Regency, Kansas City. That's right. And like we said, this thing had been open for about a year when the collapse tragedy occurred during one of their, they were hosting these weekend tea dances, which apparently were very popular in town. It was sort of an antiquated old school thing that they did. But the people of Kansas City ate it up, and they were just growing bigger and bigger with every weekend. And on this particular weekend, they had, as they did, they had a live band playing. And I saw anywhere from, I saw a thousand people in different places. This is one of those things where like every time you see a different video, you'll get different numbers and different things. And these can be a little frustrating sometimes, but at least a thousand. And maybe as many as 2 ,000 people there hanging out, partying, and dancing in the lobby. Yeah. I mean, if you see, there's footage of it, because I think one of the local TV stations was doing a human interest piece on how popular this dance had become, this Friday night dance. And that place was packed with people, not just in the atrium on the floor, but also up at the Terrace restaurant and on those three walkways that span the entire length of the atrium from one side to another on the second, third, and fourth floors. So there was a ton of people. And the number I most commonly saw was 1 ,500. So I guess everybody else split the difference. Yeah. So it's crowded. It's packed full of people. A little after seven o 'clock, the band comes back from a break to play their final big number of the dance contest.

A highlight from Session 9 Evangelism

"We are at Methods of New Testament Evangelism, number 2, page 26, and we have small letter A, Personal Evangelism, pair in one, examples, I've already given them to you before, I'll add one to it, Andrew brought Simon Peter to the Lord, and Philip brought Nathaniel to the Lord, another one is Paul led Onesimus, Philemon 10, Paul called Onesimus his son in the faith, and of course Paul called Timothy his son in the faith, and so you have those. Now the impact of these, number 2, the impact of these examples, the impact of personal evangelism is the very basic method of evangelism. That is basic, one on one, and reaching souls that way. If your church wins people to Christ, believe me, it's going to be one on one. They're going to be saved during the week and they just step forward on Sunday. Now I do believe it's important to have them step forward on Sunday, have them make a public profession, but you're not going to get very many who walk in the door and come forward and accept Christ. You get some, you're going to get them through personal witness during the week, and it's always good to get up and preach and know there are two people out there today going to come forward, because they've already been led to the Lord that week, and so the secret is getting people out there witnessing to them, getting people out there that will win them to Christ and bring them forward and see them come to know the Lord. And then we have public meetings. Right here is the, I forgot about this again, pardon me, now we're catching up. Public meetings, we'll catch you down on impact here. Public meetings, right here is the place where we make a big mistake. So often we've come to believe that unless a person comes to Christ through a public service, he'll not be saved. I don't know that that's plaguing any of you. In fact, many a believer depends on the services of the local church to do the work of the responsibility to be a witness. Now that is true. They figure we'll invite them to church, but it'll be the job of the church and the preacher to win them, and my responsibility is done with inviting them. Now they ought to invite them to church, but we need to train our people to witness and be witnesses for the Lord Jesus Christ, and so very, very important to do that. And any public service, if the public service is the instrument that brought them to Christ, now I was brought that way. I got saved in a public service, but I had a mailman get out of his mail car on the farm and walk out across the field and stop me on a tractor. I pulled back the clutch on the John Deere and stopped and talked to the mailman, and I respected him, and he didn't witness to me, but he did invite me to Christ. Had anybody witnessed to me? Yes, they had. I had an uncle in Kansas City, and that uncle had gotten saved, and I saw the change in his life. My parents had put me on a train in Colorado to go down to Kansas City to see my uncle and aunt, and I think when I was 11 I went down, 12, 13, 14, right in those years. My uncle had a dime store business, and he was seeing it go forward in a tremendous way, and he was just so involved in it, and he had a series of dime stores that he sold out to TGNY, and he had a number of dime stores, had a couple of dry goods stores, and I went down there when I was 12, and he went to Lutheran Church on Sunday morning, and then Sunday afternoon I'd go to church with him, Sunday afternoon they'd have sandwiches for Sunday dinner, eat quickly, and then pull all the blinds in the house and turn on the lights, have it dark in there, and then they'd have the money bags, and they'd pour out the bags on the dining room table, and we spent Sunday afternoon, all Sunday afternoon, counting dimes and quarters and nickels and pennies and dollar bills, but primarily the small change. We'd count and count and count. I'd take an afternoon, and then he'd pack it up in bags and take it to the bank on Monday, and man, that really impressed me as a kid, wow, all that money, I thought maybe that's what I wanted to get into, was a dime store, and I was 13 and I went down, and on Sunday morning we went to the Lutheran Church, Sunday noon we had a Sunday dinner, Sunday afternoon they didn't draw the blinds, they didn't pull the shades, they didn't pour out any money, they didn't do anything like that. He said, let's go in, we're going to sit down and read the Bible, and he read the Bible to us, and then he said, now, you boys, I had two cousins there, and you can do some things outside, but we'll go to church tonight. That night, got in the car and we drove over to Central Bible Hall, Kansas City, where Walter Wilson was the preacher, and I heard Walter Wilson preach. As the first time I ever heard a sermon about the blood, he preached, tonight I'm going to speak on the blood of Jesus Christ, and I thought, blood, what an awful subject, and in church, and I decided I wasn't going to listen, I was going to go to sleep, which I can do pretty easily, I can relax and fall asleep, and so I tried to sleep, I was sitting right between my aunt and uncle, and I was about to fall asleep, and I'd nod my head this way, and she'd nudge me, and up I'd come, and then I'd need the other way, and he'd nudge me, and there I sat, the whole service, and heard the message about the blood. I didn't get saved, I never forgot it. My uncle witnessed to me, he'd take me on his, as he drove from one dime store to the other and looked him over and told him what he wanted, drove to his warehouse, he'd talked to me about the Lord. He had been genuinely converted, and changing his life, and became a right good preacher, a lay preacher, he became a very good preacher. He told me one time, he said, I held every position in the Lutheran Church except pastor. He said, I've been a member of the Synod, I've been the treasurer, I've been the chairman of the Synod board, I've had every position that's possible in the Lutheran Church except pastor, and I wasn't saved. So he witnessed to me, he would write me letters, and beg me to accept the Lord. There was another man that witnessed to me. I was about 18, 19, I was out of high school, and I wasn't able to be in World War II, I wanted to be and never got to be because I was injured on the farm in a bad accident with a runaway team of horses, and my heart was so damaged I couldn't, and my lungs, every rib in my body was broken, and so I never got to be in the service.

A highlight from 6 Habits to Long-Term Sobriety

"Long -term recovery has everything to do with how you approach your daily life. Imagine this scenario, your recovery's going great, you're staying sober every day, things are on track, and overall you're feeling pretty proud of what you've accomplished so far. But let's be real, you're probably also feeling a little bit burnt out from pouring every ounce of your soul into your sobriety, and some things may be starting to slip because we're human and we're living life and things start to slip. But maybe your days are packed so full you feel like you have absolutely no room to breathe, or you're losing focus on the actions that got you this far because your mind is constantly occupied with other things, or maybe you're just feeling overwhelmed and scattered and you have no idea where to even start. Can you relate to this? I don't know about you, but if I look too far into the future, I can easily get frazzled, overthinking everything, trying to think of every possible scenario that I can't control, and it starts to feel like I have no idea what I'm doing. And if you've been a listener for some time, you probably know I put a lot of work and energy into my life and recovery, and I want to know what I'm doing, or feel like I know what I'm doing. In this episode, I'm sharing my list of six habits you can start working on right now to stay on top of your game and move forward with a clear path to long -term recovery and all the other goals you have for your life and sobriety. It's time to tighten things up, my friend. Are you ready? Hey, everybody, welcome to the Addiction Unlimited podcast, where you get to learn everything you want to know about addiction and recovery.

He's joining Fox's NFL kickoff, which is at 11 a .m. Eastern every Sunday little pregame action Julian Edelman Julian, how's it going? Going well, how are you doing? I'm doing well. I'm doing very well cuz football is here. So it was back Thank God is fully back. I Mean, I wish I wish the trends Kelsey wasn't hurt because I feel like that takes a little bit away from the opening game But it is what it is If you look at it though over the last However, many years the Kansas City Chiefs have been on this run. They've had relatively pretty decent help Throughout their whole thing. I mean they left they lost the left tackle in the Super Bowl That's why they lost against, you know, Brady they couldn't protect Patrick Mahomes but it's it's getting to that time in their Era it where gets hard, you know being a guy that's been on one of those teams a dynasty. They're not there quite yet but uh You know, they're well on their way if they could stay healthy and you would know better than anyone about dynasty So when would you say they're there? How many would they have to win before you say they're a dynasty everyone knows it's three Okay, I don't know what's going on. Everyone keeps on talking like oh This is you you into no, it doesn't matter if you get to the Super Bowl We went to eight straight AFC championships or something like that. Like you got to win three to get to be in Cowboys previous Patriots Niners Steelers It's not two. It's not two So tell me I want to get into your Fox gig and transitioning to meeting that since we're on it It's a good topic because I'm just curious because one of the things I'm looking at is someone who's scouting Over -unders to bet and and you know who's gonna win the AFC and stuff like that The I Motivation shouldn't say the motivation. I mean, I think the motivation is there even if you win But is it difficult or how difficult is it after winning two like they've won? It's very difficult To get geared up every Sunday, you know people don't realize How hard it is once you go out win a Super Bowl Okay, now they have two that when you win that first one you become a target everyone circles you on the schedule You win another one now everyone circling now now Divisions and conferences are designing their teams to beat you. So it gets harder and harder and as an individual player You know Your motivation you have to pull what what's motivating you because natural human instinct you're like You know, we got this we're good and then you know something happens you have injuries here an injury They're a player doesn't sign back because no two teams are the same. It's a new team every year. So it's very hard mentally To keep it going, you know And you have and they have a leader in Patrick Mahomes that can do that We had Tom Brady Tom Brady was always always on he was like he was always motivated So that gives you hope for the Kansas City Chiefs because they have such a great player and Patrick Mahomes who's their leader You know their best player is is their quarterback is their leader and the way he is is huge. Do you think? the intensity to beat the Chiefs to throne the Chiefs is Similar to what you guys experience and I ask you from this standpoint and I hope you don't take offense to this But I feel like I feel like the Chiefs are not hated in any way I'd feel like no one dislikes Mahomes No one dislikes Andy Reid you guys and I think it was mainly because of your success But there were people who didn't like Tom for whatever reason there was the ridiculousness with the flake eight the stupidest thing ever people didn't like Belichick, maybe You guys I don't think we're like Completely beloved whereas KC seems like I don't know who maybe people are sick of Travis Kelsey a little bit Like our teams you think is amped up to beat the Chiefs as they were you guys I Think the games changed the player has changed Just as an overall, I mean we look at games nowadays you got guys over here You know dapping up helping guys back back when we were playing the Jets when I first got in the league Bart Scott was mother -effing Billy O 'Brien on the sideline guys were fighting before, you know, it's just it's kind of changed And it could be for good or could be for bad. That's for weather for everyone else to determine But and also, you know, the Kansas City Chiefs that the Patriots were on it for 20 years Okay, like when I got there they already had three Super Bowls and they were on a little drought, you know But they were still winning, you know, they went 7 16 and oh they you know 14 win seasons they were still putting out big winning seasons for a long a longer time and You know the Chiefs just haven't been there I'm so I'm sure the Chiefs keep on doing well that people are gonna start hating them too, you know, yeah. Yeah The I want to get into some other stuff about the Patriots and and Belichick and Brady and but let's talk about you going to Fox you did inside the NFL. I enjoyed you on there I wrote that a couple times for SI. Now. You're gonna be on the Fox NFL kickoff show. It's remarkable I don't know if you've seen it Maybe you just know it off the top of your head because you friends with all these people but it is remarkable how every patriot is in media now is on TV, you know, you've got the McCordy's Gronk is part of the Fox family. Everyone knows about the Brady situation McGinnis the TV Bruschi It's like if you're on you were part of our Patriot team good love winners. Yeah people love winners Yeah, and they hate them so, you know you get a little bit of both They're either gonna love your hate you but they're gonna watch you It's like you had no choice but to go into TV basically after after all it's it's I don't know it's uh, You know when you play for an organization like New England and You've had the success that we had over the years that we played, you know It opens up a lot of doors and it's plain and simple. That's that's really what it is The the sacrifice and the efforts that we put into our career helped us after our career and a lot of guys you know, they have that hard work mentality that still want to stay in the game, but may not want to be coaches and And that's what media is, you know, that's what I feel. You know, I get my football fix by Going into a pre -production meeting and I haven't done it with Mike Vick or Charles Woodson or Chris and Thomas or Peter Shrager But you get your football locker room kind of vibe when you do those like when I was on inside the NFL I'm sitting there talking with Phil Simms Patrick, uh, you know, Brandon Marshall Michael Irving, Ray Lewis, James Brown and you have these These meetings where you just get to sit and talk football It's before you go on the lights are shining but you sit and you're talking stories You're breaking football down with people that play football So, I think that's a huge probably reason about it and you know, it's not you know We're used to putting in these crazy hours 14 -hour days Seven days a week don't get this year family and media, you know, like you got to do your homework You got to you got to watch all the games, but you know, we can still have a life outside of it, you know These guys are going coach. I mean people always ask me. Why aren't you in coaching and I go You know, I did my time Like I put my my 12 13 14 hour days in and when I would leave work I would see coaches families in the parking lot Seeing the coaches before they would go to bed because they still had another three hours. I ain't doing that Yeah, you know and then if you go somewhere else where it's not like that Then I'm mentally all messed up because well, there's some people that are doing it, you know So it's just I like I'm happy or I'm mad. I'm excited to go out and entertain and talk my knowledge When you were playing and you're playing days towards the end of your career Did you think you would get into TV or did you not think about it while you were playing? I Didn't necessarily think I'd become an analyst and do what I'm doing right now I always enjoyed creating content You know whether it was our YouTube videos our Instagram videos and all the content we build on J around je11 You know that was booming with with the Patriot nation that would always support, you know I always I found a niche in that and and I enjoyed that process of creating content going in and sitting in a you know in a editing room and and Filming up all this stuff and thinking it's gonna be terrible and then cutting it down and then you know having all your other team Because there's a team of people, you know That put put the work in to to get this good content out and I enjoyed it So I didn't know it was gonna be to the extent of what I'm doing right now but I knew you know, I was comfortable in front of a camera and you know, I know I faced for radio, but Thank God I won a lot of games Had it and just tell me were were there other networks like in the running to get your services Was it just Fox like I'd end up at Fox why Fox? Tell me a little bit about joining I want to say any other names there were, you know There was another network that was involved and I sat down and I thought Fox would be perfect You know, I got a couple teammates there with Gronk Brady You know, I'm really excited to get to hang out with you know Charles Woodson and in talk football with Mike Vick and Chris Thompson Peter Schrager and you know Fox is like a If you know the story behind Fox, I mean they were created as This little small sport network with John Madden.

It was by your favorite central bankers out there in Jackson Hole, Wyoming So I'm gonna kind of contrast the two we have the Bitcoin BitBock boom conference in Austin And then we have the central bankers meeting in Jackson Hole, Wyoming So, I don't know I thought it's very fitting that the two happen on the same weekend and we'll see the difference between The fiat monetary policy handlers and the Bitcoiners and the energy coming out of there You just love to see the contrast and of course guys also as you can tell I'm hosting the show today I will actually be hosting the show till probably Wednesday Nico has some family stuff that he has to take care of so send some thoughts and prayers over to Nico He will be back in a couple of days, but you guys know the show don't stop This is why we've been doing our best To make sure that I handle the show that we're training our boys Dell and Rustin on the show and we even have some people Coming off on the bench. So shouts out to our boy Mike Hobart Cuz we are making sure that the show don't stop for you guys We will continue to give you guys the signal as you guys know, this is simply Bitcoin We are your number one source for the peaceful Bitcoin revolution We cover breaking news culture and memetic warfare and we bring on Bitcoiners from all around the world from the biggest names to the everyday Bitcoiner we got them all and we will be your guide through the separation of money and state, but of course guys I'm not alone. I'm here with my co -host Dell Dell. How you doing this morning, brother? I'm good, but I got a got to do a quick correction to what you said about that other Symposium the the meeting over in Jackson Hole. You said it wasn't put on by Bitcoiners I'll change that too. It wasn't put on by Bitcoiners yet Yet they will be just joy just wait given enough time Everybody's gonna come around and see the bright orange light of Bitcoin. It's unavoidable Let's go. Alright guys. Well, let's get into the show. We got a lot to cover today The Bitcoin numbers is your Bitcoin in cold storage really secure is your seed phrase Really secure stamp seeds do -it -yourself kit has everything you need to hammer your seed words into commercial grade Titanium plates instead of just writing them on paper. Don't store your generational wealth on paper Papers prone to water damage fire damage. You want to put your generational wealth on one of the strongest metals on planet earth? titanium your words are actually stamped into this metal plate with this hammer and these letter stamps and once your words are in they Aren't going anywhere. No risk of the plate breaking apart and pieces falling everywhere Titanium stamp seeds will survive nearly triple the heat produced by a house fire They're also crush proof waterproof non -corrosive and time proof all things that paper is not allowing you to huddle your Bitcoin with peace of mind for The long haul stamp your seed on stamps Alright guys, as you know hit the QR code in the bottom and get yourself a seed phrase storage kit Do not leave your Bitcoin seed phrase on paper in your sock drawer Anyways, let's get into some of the numbers here. Of course. We're over here on Clark Moody's dashboard and Our favorite number the block high it keeps going up guys. It's almost like Bitcoin works. It is at eight hundred and five thousand one hundred 82 for the new all -time high of block height the current Bitcoin price is twenty six thousand one hundred and twenty dollars guys We're still in the 26k range Which means you have an opportunity to stack more sets than we did what two weeks ago? Which means the Moscow time aka the sats per dollar aka how much your Fiat dollars worth? It's currently at three thousand eight hundred and twenty Six and I did drop a poll in the chat guys. Are we gonna see 4k sets? I don't know Let's see what you guys think. Let's speculate a little bit in the chat for you guys get you involved Anyways, the total percentage of Bitcoin issued is at ninety two point seven one percent the current market cap in Fiat dollar terms is five hundred and eight point eight billion dollars Bitcoin isn't even at a Trillion -dollar market cap yet. We're a half a trillion Anyways, the realized monetary inflation taking fiat currencies to school was at one point seven five percent and someone asked me on telegram What what does this number mean? It means like even though Bitcoin is hard cap there is a realized monetary inflation until 2140 until the last Bitcoin gets released and That is going to get halved and cut in half in April and actually dealt maybe Can we can we talk about your your dad the little story you just told us in regards to the halving and and this number The monetary or realized monetary inflation. I think this might be an interesting little story, but tldr me I know how you like to talk so tldrs The long and short of it is if you keep on talking To people and you keep on blasting them every time you get on the phone with them about Bitcoin then sooner or later They'll either I guess I guess there's a bit you run the risk of them telling you to never speak again, but Sometimes they might start to see some some of the things they might go. Wait a second so if the halving means that there's less Bitcoin to be found and there's only ever gonna be X amount 21 million and More people want it as time goes on. That means that the price goes up, right? And I'm like like Lavi said that was a tldr of my my conversation with my dad and I said that's exactly what it means There's only so much it's gonna get more and more scarce and the price can only go one way so Yeah, they're waking up. They're be they're noticing people are noticing. Okay last couple numbers We have the Bitcoin verse gold market cap is only currently 3 .96 percent of the gold market cap If you remember gold is I believe around 10 trillion dollars Bitcoin Still less than half a chair above a little more than half a trillion. Anyways, the total lightning capacity is 24 ,746 point nine four BTC the hash rate the last 90 days is 377 point four exa hashes and the pending fees is currently three point one one BTC Okay, guys as I was telling you guys This weekend we had a contrast between two different Conferences we had bit block boom in Austin the Bitcoin maxi conference Well, all your favorite bitcoiners were and we were live streaming from the floor. We were holding down the media desk and we had the central bankers meeting in Jackson Hole, Wyoming and I just I that the irony isn't lost on me that they happen on the same weekend, but you can tell that there is complete difference in Ideologies and the feeling coming out of these conferences and first and foremost I'm pretty sure we played this video for you guys over the weekend on the streams, but I want to play it again Because you can just see not only the hubris of Christine Lagarde, but notice the body language of her Does she really believe what she's saying or is she just saying this stuff just to say it to play the confidence game? And I also got a story or a newsletter article Sorry coming out a couple days later about what was said at the conference And again, we are contrasting this to bitcoins monetary policy because that's what it's all about and remember what Dells dad just said People are starting to wake up. People are starting to notice and they're starting to understand Wow, maybe I want to get some Bitcoin just in case just catches on Anyways, we have a tweet here by Christine Lagarde. She goes hello from the Jackson Hole economic policy symposium I'm looking forward to sharing my thoughts and exchanging views with central bankers from around the globe on the very relevant theme of Structural shifts in the global economy Thanks for hosting the event Kansas City Fed. All right, let's just get into this little video notice her body language And what is she even saying here? Anyway, let's get into this to all of you and I would like to share this Magnificent panorama that is behind me. It is the setting of the Jackson Hole conference that takes place every year It is a little bit like the Sintra of the West except it's been around for longer Many central bank governance many academics many experts in monetary policy and on the economy in general Will be gathering for two days and we will talk about the current situation The major shifts that we are seeing the major breaks and how we can best response with good policies That will actually help bring inflation back to 2 % This is the goal. This is the mission. We're not done yet We are working hard But we also have to compare notes and share our views with others so that we can have really the highest level of confidence That we are taking everything into account, but this is a very inspiring place to do it Interesting, okay first and foremost, of course they are still struggling to maintain 2 % inflation rate as we like to call it, you know, the the publicly Acceptable amount a Purchasing power they can steal from you every year is 2 % and they're struggling to get back down as we've been covering for a long time on the show The inflation rate the official inflation rate CPI is nowhere near 2 % It almost got as high as 10 % I think there's somewhere roughly around 3 % right now and they are still working on getting that lower But anyways, let's talk about what they actually talked about or as Christine Lagarde was saying You know share our notes in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, you know It might sound Very very simple very innocent. We're just gonna share our notes so that we know what's going on in the world So we're all on the same page Some might say they're conspiring but hey, let's not go down that path Okay We're over here on Bloomberg and we have an article here and it goes at Jackson Hole post inflation challenges vex central bankers and the subtitle Is pledge policymakers to keep rates high until inflation is tame as you can tell the theme is inflation is not tamed Anyways, let's get into this article and I will jump back and forth on a few different articles from Bloomberg and then of course I am going to angle this in regards to Bitcoin and Bitblock boom that we just all were hanging out with over the weekend in Austin so the world's top central bankers stress the need to keep interest rates high until inflation is contained and Their job harder at an annual Federal Reserve gathering in Jackson Hole Wyoming keynote speeches from Fed chair Jerome Powell and European Central Bank president Christine Lagarde on Friday Laid out the challenges each is facing in deciding if they should extend Historic strings of rate increases that began last year at the same time They offered investors few clues as to whether they would in fact Do so in the coming months and there's a link here and I want to jump on to this other link real quick Because of course as Bitcoiners, we know what our monetary policy is and yet people are still out here Waiting for the people in suits to tell them what is happening with their money Anyways, what are these clues that they're talking about? So Powell has bond traders right where he wants them full of doubt Interesting interesting as we know monetary policy at least in the fiat world is a game of trust a game of confidence and Playing with that confidence they want you full of doubt so you don't know which way they're gonna go Are they gonna pivot are they you know, they're gonna lower rates.

That's awesome Looking forward to talking about business and entrepreneurship what you're doing these days. So take us back Tell us what you did in the Coast Guard Hey Joe, thanks for having me on your show. Well, it actually started in high school I joined the Missouri National Guard when I was 17 went to boot camp in Portland win, Missouri Graduated from that went back to high school and did my senior year and then moved on to AIT which is the training for the army and I was a tactical radio communicator So basically I carried a backpack radio and worked on their radios got a chance to go to Germany For a large NATO US exercise and kind of opened up my world view and my eyes a little bit You know as an 18 year old coming out of Missouri central, Missouri There's a you know, I lived in farmland. So I got to see what was going on there now I'm in another country traveling around with people that are a lot older than me that been around so Got a got a good view into a little bit about what the world was going what was going on in the world So fast forward I decided to go to college I'm in college pursuing a degree in aviation and Too much college activities and not enough good enough grades and they they gave me the invitation not to return You gotta see MSU Yes, yeah, right there in Lawrenceburg. Yep Yep, so great program great school Just it wasn't a good time for me at that time too. I wasn't ready So now I'm deciding what am I gonna do am I gonna join the army and Start seeing some commercials about the Coast Guard on TV. I'm like in Missouri You don't see a lot of Coast Guard, you know, because we're in the center of the country. We're landlocked There's there is a Coast Guard there. I found out later on but not to my knowledge at the time So I get in my car. I live in Colombia and I drive to st. Louis to see a recruiter I get the recruiters office goes. Hey, thank you for your interest But I can't recruit you you live on the wrong side of the Missouri River you need to go to Kansas City So now back in the car driving to Kansas City and Get all the stuff done and there's an eight -month wait list to get in so I go ahead and sign the paperwork and delay entry finally getting the Coast Guard and After graduating boot camp, I end up going to Tillamook Bay, Oregon So basically they've got a motor lifeboats that are like the tanks in the water They're meant to take 30 40 foot waves you get there the windows are made of bulletproof glass 300 bulletproof glass you get into the boat and You strap in with a helmet your dry suit and the seat belts and buckle in And you go out there and take waves and try not to take waves But sometimes you have to for the fishing boat to fleet that's coming in So what an exciting job, you know at 21 years old you're out there charging these giant waves Get in beat up by the waves and pulling people out of water and rescuing them It could have ended right there. I could have stayed in that job forever. It was it was amazing. It was an adrenaline rush But I wanted to do aviation still So I put my name on the school list to go to aviation the Coast Guard and I went to Elizabeth City, North Carolina for and Electronics avionics Had to wait a year for that school, so I got to play around in Oregon for a while the school 38 weeks Learn how to do all the component repair of all the electronics on the plane Graduated from there and get my first units in Traverse City, Michigan like where's Traverse City, Michigan and it's all the way up north and As far it's in the northern part of the Lower Peninsula of Michigan So and at the time they were flying Of course each series or what the army would have or other services BC Kings or or Jolly Green Giants So I get there and I learned that after going to school all this time. I really don't know anything So it's time. It's time to start learning. You're an apprentice. So, you know, you start learning everything about the plane and the organization And Soon as I learned everything about the HCI thought I needed to know we transitioned to 60s So then we get the Seahawks the Coast Guard version of the Seahawk so got to do that and so spend eight to ten years Learning, you know my craft and trade and and just enjoying the Coast Guard You know the camaraderie the people in the organization the mission And then took a took my next tour to Alaska So I got to go to Kodiak, Alaska and help them transition because nobody was qualified to fly the 60s yet only the first units so I got to go up there and help stand up the program and Start, you know training everybody and flying that mission with the 60 But they didn't have the 60s yet. So I had to go back to the X trees and fly that again So it's kind of flying in both at the same time. So it was nice I mean I was getting you know, three and four hundred hours a year flight time and You know, it was Alaska some of the most beautiful flying you can imagine we do stuff that you know, I couldn't pay for So got to do that And then after leaving Traverse City or after leaving Kodiak my transition again to another helicopter I moved in Detroit and we moved to the Eurocopter 65 Which is a smaller business corporate helicopter that the Coast Guard uses for its ship based operations so I got to do that and then I'm starting to roll up on my my my 20 20 years it's gonna be coming up here pretty soon. I'm at 15. I'm starting to think what am I gonna do? So I started doing, you know different college programs. So they give my associate degree Well, I got my associate degree knocked out while I still in Detroit and then we go back to Alaska where? I'm within a two -year window now so planning on Transitioning out at 20. I go ahead and get my my Microsoft engineering degree And then that takes a year to do that so the tour in Alaska is only three years so back to Traverse City and I'm looking at getting out at that point in time and that's where I start my first business up there I started business in 2002 building computer repair computers and servicing Computers for large corporations. Yeah, where did the where the desire to where the desire to search your own business come from? Um, well, I knew I needed to get out and I didn't really want to it was gonna be hard to replace an organization I'm already in I didn't necessarily want to work for a company Yeah, and so doing my own thing in my own, you know not have to rely on somebody else To get the job done because I know I can do the job and I wanted to do it myself So there was a desire. I did that job for about four years and then Lo and behold I promoted myself out of my position. I was in in Traverse City So it was either I was in you seven at the time and I was gonna make a yay So like okay, where can I go and you know make that kind of money? I'm not I'm not generating that kind of income at this point in time So kind of put that in the back burner and shelved it for a while also, I was seeing I'd get my Microsoft degree and I saw that everything was getting outsourced and Working on hands -on technology You're always chasing the certification because everything's changing so quickly within the computer industry I wasn't sure how how much I wanted to stay continually chasing that certification So decide to go back to school we transfer to Miami at that point and That was a Big culture shift going from Alaska to Traverse City down to Miami because the missions are different. Yeah cold to hot Right. So I went more from more of a search and rescue law enforcement to more of a law enforcement search and rescue So the emphasis was more on law enforcement down in Florida with the international treaties and border protection type mission So I started going back to school again get my bachelor's degree and Finished up that and then again, so I wasn't looking at getting out at that point. We're at year 24 at that point Promoted again made Master Chief for E9 and was waiting and Wanted to go back to Detroit fortunately, nobody else wanted to go back to Detroit and I was able to pick up that job as The command enlisted advisor working for the CEO in Detroit What great job great experience wonderful people I worked with and then at that point I started working on my master's degree and business with Masters in health care administration some kind of shotgunning, you know the different things I'm planning on doing when I get out I want to make sure I could cover all the bases. I had done troop the teacher signed up for it Got a degree in history got a degree and business and then what got an MBA and then an MHA and Didn't do any of that when I got out So, what was your transition like you end up getting the JOB and was it smooth on the way out because I mean you're you're prepared educational wise but What was the twist in turn? Yeah, it's interesting because you know and it's not from the organization you don't hear but I think ourselves we underestimate our Capabilities when we're in we're thinking hey, we're in this job We've been doing the same job on the military side But when I get out I'm gonna I don't I can't how do I deal with and how do I work in that? Organization, you know, how do I fit in and how do I provide value? Yeah, and hey Jeff before before we get too far? let's take a quick break and Re -attack this on the way back Getting a new car is exciting and you deserve a hassle -free buying experience You can get a decision in seconds and enjoy great rates with everything You need in one place Navy Federalist Car Buying Center is your one -stop shop for researching Financing buying protecting and enjoying your next car you can search for new and used cars access vehicle history reports enjoy discounts on auto insurance and more and you can make the most of your time on the road wherever you go with our flagship credit card whether you're taking a trip to relax or see somewhere new You deserve a travel card does the work for you in my 33 years as a Navy Federal member I've had the flagship credit card since it first came out and we use our travel points all the time flagship credit card will earn you three times points on travel plus up to $100 in statement credits towards TSA pre -check or global entry and a free year of Amazon Prime With two times the points on all purchases outside of travel the rewards don't have to end where your vacation does For more on Navy Federalist Car Buying experience and flagship rewards visit navyfederal .org Open armed forces DoD veterans and their families credit and collateral subject to approval Navy Federalist insured by NCUA Visa is a registered service mark of Visa used by Navy Federal under license All right back talking with Coast Guard veteran Jeff Starr from Wynn Home Inspection so Jeff anyways failed to mention We talked about this for you at the record button your episode number 500 Which is a major milestone for any podcast or any podcaster So I wish I had a door prize for you or something, but I just didn't acknowledge Yeah, you're one of the few coasties I've had on the show.

A highlight from Crypto Market Dip NOT OVER? (J. Powell Hints More Rate Hikes)

"We are here in the Bahamas working to make it right. If you can't have a millionaire, would you keep working? The commander is here. What's going on right now is California's trying to figure out if they can defeat the government that popped the pot. Yeah. Oh, I can. Welcome to BitBoy Crypto! Home of the BitSquad, the largest and greatest crypto community in all the Interwebs. No channel works harder to keep you in the know about crypto than this one right here. My name is Ben. Come to you live every single day at 11 .30am Eastern Standard Time. Exactly. Also known as 9 .40pm MST, is that what you call it? Mountain Time Zone. Anyways, regardless, I digress. We are here at RARE EVO. We've got our Bencoin booth. I don't know if you saw pictures of it on Twitter. Super exciting. And, you know, it really made me think when we got here about what was going on last year at this time. And I think that's really where I want to start before we get into the show is really thinking about last year, this event was in October. And it was very interesting. I just talked to Charles. Charles just gave a speech on stage. Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano, of course. And last year, him and I did an interview on stage. And the interesting thing that really occurred was not what people got to see. It's what people didn't get to see. The behind the scenes was so interesting. Because if you remember, I made my famous Sam Bankman -Fried rant around the middle of October. This event was towards the back half of October, if I remember correctly. And the thing is, I had already marked the enemy territory with Sam. And our bill was progressing. And I had sent my bill to Charles. And I sent everything that, oh, there's crypto India. She looks like a monkey. She's got a banana. The fact is that we're spending all of our time and our resources and, you know, really trying to put things into this bill, and I asked Charles if he would support it. Same reason we sent the bill originally to FTX. And, you know, there's different stuff going on, but the point is the conversation went kind of like this. Charles, I don't understand. Why do you not want to support our bill? Like either financially or kind of giving it a vote of confidence? And he said, well, you know, I don't think the CFTC is going to like it, is what he said. He's been, you know, on Capitol Hill on the behalf of the Department of Agriculture, which, you know, all crypto falls under. And he said, you know, but here's the thing. I've dug into what you've been saying about Sam. And he said, it's true. Sam is doing all the things that you said he was doing. And here's the line. He said, but, you know, in the end, he's Sam Bankman -Fried. He's going to mess up. He's incompetent. That's what he does. And let me tell you, you want to talk about an accurate statement. Look how everything played out last year. Like being here and talking to Charles a second ago, it just really reminded me of that event. But here's the thing. You've got bad actors, okay? And there's a lot of bad actors in crypto. We know that. But the bad actors, they almost, in a roundabout way, it's like one of those circular staircases where you can't ever find where it, you know, enters and exits. Where are the good actors? And where are the bad actors? And the thing is, is that the bad actors, they almost force the good actors to be shown and to be present. And I think that's what you've seen over this last year is with the contagion and with the Alex Wyshinsky and Sam Bankman -Fried, you know, you really start to see who the good guys are, and they're not who they told you they were. And, to me, being here at Rare Evo again and seeing where we've gone in the last year, of course, you got a lot of bad stuff, but there's something like Bitcoin that now, you know, we're running. We've got our booth here. Super exciting. And it's all about crypto adoption. It's about taking those things that, you know, aren't quite right with crypto, whether it's the public perception, whether it's the education about crypto, whether it's the government, the policies, regulations, or whether it's the media, you know, we've got a lot of stuff to fix. And this technology can be used for the good. And that's ultimately what's going to happen. It's just a matter of the good guys, I guess, outshine the bad guys. So, we're going to get started here. There's Wendy. Wendy, you want to come, just come be on the stage? Do you want a banana, you hungry? I must ask you a question. Where is Bitcoin going to? We're going to go to do our show later today, I think. Tomorrow. Tomorrow, yeah. Our show's tomorrow. We're going to film lots of episodes tomorrow. Yeah, we're going to do four. So, we're going to have four for you guys. And you're going to be wearing something, aren't you? Oh, yes, I bought an apron. Do you want me to wear a muumuu? I draw the line that started to look like a woman. It was a cat muumuu, but they had one in blue. Yeah, they did have one in blue. It is true. It's not the color. It's like a dress. I know, but you could have worn pants. You can't do it. It could have been like ATL shorty. Shoddy. It's shoddy. It's not shoddy. It's shoddy shoddy. Well, from the west side. I can tell. I can tell. ATL. Shoddy shorty. Okay, well, here's orange you glad that you brought that banana? Bye, guys. Okay, guys, let's go get started with MarketWatch here. As you do know, we did officially switch to CoinGecko from CoinMarketCap. Now, I can't really see the chat, I don't think. So, yeah. So, guys, I love you a lot. I can't see you today, but you get to see me. And we're probably going to, guys, we're probably going to plan on ending it about probably 12 .30 today. So we're going to go through the show kind of quick. Okay, so here we go. We are on CoinMarketCap. Okay, there we go. Is BJ manually switching this? He's in here. Okay, looking at the overall markets. By the way, CoinMarketCap did actually start fixing some stuff. So they did email me after my big tirade the other day. So we'll see what happens there. The market cap almost at $1 .1 trillion. You know, we were just barely over a trillion a couple of days ago. Volume, $36 billion. Bitcoin dominance, 46 .4%. ETH dominance, 18 .2%. I'm going to get a little more used to these CoinGecko numbers to know whether that's up or down. I don't even remember. Gas, 15 .0 Paraguay to send you an ETH transaction. And I hope you guys enjoyed us going live from this, thank you, we're going live from rare evo today. This is one of these things where, you know, the more we travel, the more we go to events, you know, we can have BJ with me. He's an animal with the tech. And there he is. There's BJ, ladies and gentlemen. So, you know, we want to be able to bring you guys more live shows even when I'm on the road instead of, you know, look, we love Deezy. He's great. He's here. But I know you guys don't necessarily want to fill in. And all my Deezy fans, I guess y 'all like around the blockchain anyway, so he's going to be going live or going to be doing a show from here as well. Bitcoin coming in at $26 ,000 approximately. Ethereum coming in at $16 ,400. Uh -oh. Scam. BJ, Scam Likely is calling you. Scam Likely is calling you. $16 .48. Let's see. Where is the old XRP coming in at $0 .51? Yeah, I mean, we pretty much wiped out the entire gain from the lawsuit. And I wasn't expecting it to retrace all the way, but I guess it kind of depended on how high that it went. If it had gone $3X, then it shouldn't have. It just doubled. $0 .50 to $1 and then, or whatever it was, $0 .45 to $0 .90, and now it's crashed back down. But, of course, that's a reaction to the overall market. A lot of people are really expecting a big drop here. And I'm just not. Like, I just don't see it. I try not to get too caught up in the narratives. And, yes, there are some things about the 4 -year cycle that do indicate that there should be more down action, especially compared to Ethereum to Bitcoin. You can chart it doesn't look good. But I almost feel like everybody talking about it, you know, it seems to sometimes negate that. When everybody's expecting a big drop, it doesn't really happen. That's the thing. When we got our big drop from $70K at the top, nobody was expecting that. When we got the FTX collapse, right? Out of nowhere, nobody was expecting that. And so right now, everybody's telling you a big drop is coming, and it's like Bitcoin just loves to defy the narrative. It fits within the fundamentals of the 4 -year cycle, but in the micro, Bitcoin likes to defy. So, or defies, I may say. Let's see. Albert Condi with Superchat. I actually have the chat now. Yobin, you guys have lawyers on your payroll, right? Of course, with all the legal attacks from the US government, I want to watch some streams of discussions with lawyers who know crypto. Okay. That might be something we could, you know, might be better for maybe pre -recorded video rather than live streaming. Live streaming would be good too. But, yeah, thank you for the Superchat. Turn noise cancelling off. What does that mean? Is that us? Okay. One. What are you doing, BJ? No. BJ says no. BJ says no. We can only do the best, guys. What do we got? So next time, BJ says we're going to be a little bit even better prepared, so. We got RollBit coming in, 19 .7 % gains. If you guys did not know, RollBit is kind of a competitor to Stake in a sense, so we can't be covering RollBit really too much on this channel other than to say, look, the price went up, went up 20%, nice pump, and it's one of these things that's been running in the bear market, and it's obvious because people just want to gamble in the bear market because there's not a lot of gains to be had in the crypto world, so unless you're shorting or leverage trading, so RollBit's one to watch. Now, you know, Stake doesn't have its own coin, which is very interesting. I doubt they would ever do that. I don't think it's somewhere they want to get it, something they want to get into. But, you know, are we seeing a decentralized version kind of pop up? We'll have to see how RollBit goes. We have some coins up, barely. Big Ed token, Quant, Mantle, Polkadot, DYDX. So, alright, so let's go ahead and move on. Don't forget, guys, in here at the booth over here, we have a ton of Bitcoin merch. You guys, don't forget to check out hitmerch .com. We got an entire Bitcoin collection. So, you know, it's some really cool merch. Hope you guys check it out. I'm going to be in a dunk tank later, and I guess I'm probably going to see if we have some Bitcoin tank tops and shorts for me to get in the dunk tank with. It'll be everywhere now for charity. Alright, guys, moving on here. US Fed's Jerome Powell and Jackson Hole prepare for more rate hikes, so kind of serious, kind of, kind of not necessarily unexpected news, but they are really committed to, you know, lowering these rates and getting inflation under control, at least making it appear that it's under control. It's kind of like this. It's like, you think of quantum easing or quantitative easing, you can kind of think of it as like a superpower for the Fed, I guess, right? Like, what happens is, you know, I used to remember this game we used to play, right? All the boys, the boys, we go to the arcade. There are two games, really three games, that were four -player games that people just loved when I was a kid. You had The Simpsons. Simpsons was a four -player arcade game. It's pretty cool. Whatever. One of my favorite one, but I did beat it because that's what I do. I'm a winner. You also had Ninja Turtles. Ninja Turtles, man, what a great game that was in the arcade. Man, 4x4 action, you and your buddies, birthday party, you know, go to a big place like, you know. We used to go to a place called American Adventures, but there's other places, Dave and Buster's. And so what happens on this X -Men game? They had this X -Men game. And that was the game we all loved more than any of the other ones because it had this cool superpower. You kind of like store the superpower up, and you are willing to go all the way down to like one bar of your energy. You just take the hits, take the hits, take the hits, because you knew the maximum value of when you use your special power that will blow up everything on the screen was worth it. The appeal to use the quantitative easing for the federal government and Jerome Powell for the Federal Reserve is more appealing than the temporary hits that the economy is taking. They know as soon as they turn the quantitative easing back on, that they're going to be able to fix everything just to mess everything up again. But that kicks the can down the road, right? So they're willing to take the hits going down to no energy, your economy not do well, there's tons of stats showing our economy is actually worse than the Great Depression right now. It's all fake, and it's all smoke and mirrors. That's what the government's learned to do better over time is create the optical illusion that everything's fine when it's clearly not. So, Jerome Powell is, you know, basically saying like, hey, here's the thing. Let's see if this is all part of the optics. We're going to keep raising rates. It's what has to happen for us to get inflation under control. There's no such thing as getting inflation under control, guys. Our money is worthless. There's nothing behind it. It's going to happen again. Powell revealed that the Fed staff intends to hold the interest rates at a restrictive level until they are confident that inflation is moving sustainably towards a 2 % target. They made their remarks at the Economic Policy Symposium, also popularly called Jackson Hole Symposium, or Jackson Hole Meeting, posted by the Federal Reserve of Kansas City. I actually took a picture outside that one time when I was there for a Chiefs Finals game. Prior to the speech, traders were anticipating the Fed chairs' comments on the long -term economic scenario amid the ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty. So, there we go. And, of course, Bitcoin price hasn't, doesn't seem like it's really done that much for the Bitcoin price one way or the other. Okay. So, also, guys, we have IRS spares, crypto miners and validators and new broker reporting requirements. And, you know, here's the thing, guys. I told you that this thing about who's a broker in crypto, right? It was in some language of the big Digital Currency Act that got, you know, implemented a couple years ago, and everybody was worried about this broker language because it was going to affect miners. I told you the whole time, guys, the system has a lot of different fail -safes in it, okay? And so when you see one of these stories like China banning Bitcoin, like, okay, cool, you know, it's not that big of a deal. I knew this broker stuff in the United States. I knew it was going to end up not being a big deal. The language was not clarified in the bill, but I said it would get clarified later. And here, you have the IRS saying basically exactly what I just told you, is that even though the bill said one thing, this is what the IRS is going to do and how they're actually going to legislate and regulate this, or I guess the IRS just keeps up with the money. How are they going to hold it financially accountable? The Department of Treasury released its highly anticipated proposed regulations for crypto currency brokers. Notably, it's chosen to exempt individual validators and miners under the proposed rules. And this is big for DAOs, too, guys. Under the proposed rules, crypto brokers will have to adhere to the same rules as securities brokers, including filing information returns and furnishing pay statements for all customers and traders. The Treasury stated that the proposed changes aimed to curb crypto tax evasion and prevent crypto investors and businesses from getting an unfair advantage. Biden said there's as much as $18 billion left on the table. We all know he wanted that so he could give it to Ukraine or his son could squirt it up his nose. The rules that passed would go into effect 2026 for the 2025 tax year, which is absolutely huge because the 2025 tax year is the year to harvest the gains, right? That's when the bull market is going to be thriving, probably ending somewhere around the summer of that year. So, let's see. Yup. You guys, we're in a big room here. This is what happens when you're live at a conference, is what it is. Okay. Alright. Let's move on here to the XRP trial here. And you guys know our XRP section is always brought to you by stake. You know, in my opinion, some of the best bread that exists is a golden crown. Golden crown has got these rolls there. Now, they don't have anything else that's good, but they've got these rolls. They're immaculate. They're so good. They're buttered. They're fantastic. And it really makes every other roll that you've ever had just taste mid. So, BJ, please play the mid roll. Thank you to our sponsor, Stake. Thank you to our sponsor, Stake. Also, thank you to Rare Evo as well. Okay. Why the SEC vs. Ripple trial may never happen. Insights crypto from lawyer Fred Rispoli. Talked to Fred a few times. Good guy. The SEC vs. Ripple Labs lawsuit has been a significant battle in the crypto world. On July 13, Annalisa Torres, the judge, delivered a complex ruling. It wasn't really that complex. Prominent crypto lawyer Fred Rispoli took to microblogging platform X. It's like calling Bitcoin the flagship cryptocurrency. Like, the microblogging platform X. Is that really what we're saying now? Come on. Ryder, I know you get paid for word, but come on. I can do better. Desiria's belief that the trial between the two Ripple Labs executives may never take place. Here's why Rispoli thinks so. Pressure tactics. He argues at Garlinghouse that suing Garlinghouse and Larson was a strategy to pressure Ripple into a weak settlement position agree 100%. Witness challenges. Imagining key SEC figures on the witness stand. Rispoli believes figures such as William Hinman and Jay Clayton could be tied to their roles in the Trump administration, which might not sit well with a New York City jury. Proving reckless. Rispoli questions about how the SEC could prove recklessness regarding institutional sales when the defendants can point to programmatic sales as being acceptable. Weak evidence. Of course, the evidence concerning domestic vs. international sales is considered weak. Reorganization of the SEC's trial team. They've already been making some internal changes to their trial team in this case. Back -to -back trials with the SEC's tight trial schedule may hinder its ability to focus on this case. It's one of these situations where Gary Gensler does not want to let go. He does not want to let go of this. But he's going to in the end see that this is a losing battle for him, and he's got to make the choice to move on. It's a hard decision because it basically means that everything he's been talking about, his entire stint at the SEC, is nullified. And what does that mean? That means that he himself becomes replaceable because he's been in charge forever and he's done nothing. That's the whole point. It's why we need someone to replace him. And the writing is on the wall for him, and he is going to fight until the last second, but at some point, he's going to have to give up the ghost because he's going to start getting pressure from people outside of him. When he starts feeling that pressure, that's when this is going to be over. The lack of bargaining chips. He's just as he has no bargaining chips left if the judge denies the motion for the appeal. So the Interlocutory Appeal, definitely something to watch, something to pay attention to. We had to find out and see, you know, where Judge Suarez rules on that. Alright, guys. Moving on here to Robinhood. And where do we have charts on there at all? Are we going to do charts at all today, BJ? We have it. It's on there, Ben. Did I go by? Where is it? It's after this. Okay. Okay. Perfect. Yeah. Okay. I got it. Okay. Oh, I see it. There it is. It's on my screen. I missed it. Can $1 .9 billion in expiring options shake the markets? You know, guys, we're getting to a place of decision point for the market. We're getting to a decision point. Bitcoin options expiry days come around again. And, guys, the end of Quarter 3 is going to be the end of September. That's going to be a, like I said, a decision point. Where is Bitcoin going to go? Are we going to continue upwards? And are we going to see things slowly ramp up to the halving? Do we need another bloodbath, another dump? Certainly don't see new lows come into play anywhere. But are we going to see a dump down to 20 before we have our resurrection point? It's all very interesting things to think about here. And if you look at traditionally when we were in the bull market, man, the end of those quarters would be absolutely brutal. They would destroy some of the pumps that we had. Now, we're on the backside. Now, we're in the bear market. Will the options within everyone's bearish attitude, will these actually counteract and go the opposite direction and cause a big pump? I certainly think it's possible. We could see that. Now, what does that mean? Well, the pain point for bulls and bears, the middle ground is $28 ,000. So at some point, it's going to either push up above $28 ,000 or it's got to show that $28 ,000 seems to be unachievable in the moment. Right now, with Bitcoin at $26 ,000, of course, it seems achievable. But are we going to dump down lower and make $28 ,000 kind of out of the picture again? We'd have to go below $25 .2K and hold below that. Here's some of the options. You guys can see here what this looks like right now. We are, you know, heading into the 1st of September. This is the 25th of August here on the left side. That, of course, is, yeah, the 25th of August. That's Friday. That's today. That's actually today. Today is, no, no, sorry, today's Thursday, right? No, it's Friday. It's Thursday. It's Friday. It is Friday. I forgot what day it is. We didn't do the show yesterday, so it got really turned off. It is Friday. Today's the day they expire. So, guys, we'll be watching for some interesting action. You know, see, you know, if Bitcoin is going to pumper down based on all this. Right now, it's holding strong. The overall market cap around $1 .1 trillion. So it doesn't seem to have that big of an effect so far. Okay, so let's go and move on to the charts.

Welcome to the MMQB podcast. I am Matt Verteram, joined by Gilberto Manzano here. It is Thursday, August 24th, and that means we only have one week of preseason football up. We're all thankful for that. Gil, have you finished up your training camp tour? Are you done now, or you still got a few more you gotta hit? Yeah, no, I'm done, and when you said the date, Matt, I actually forgot what date it is today, so that tells me we're two weeks away from the real football season, so I am done with training camp. I don't know about you, Matt, but after like the fifth or sixth stop, I was over it. I saw enough, you know, kind of somewhat real football. I did check out a couple scrimmages, which felt like a little bit of real football, but before that I was like, I'm over the traveling. Let's just get to the Chiefs and the Lions for that. There's a night opener. Yeah, man, I went to eight camps. I saw nine teams because the Lions and the Giants had joined practice when I was up in Allen Park. The day that I woke up in Kansas City, I actually didn't know what city I was in when I woke up. I had like a two -second, I don't know if panic's the same. So, I'm done. I finished on Tuesday. I went up to Green Bay for the last one, which was kind of more of an add -on at the end. I had gone up there for OTAs to do a feature on Jordan Love, and I wanted to go back up there and visit with Matt Lafleur, and it was worth the six -hour round trip. It was a long, long bit of traveling one day, but we made it happen. How many camps did you get to over the course of the summer? I got to, I want to say eight, and I had like you with the extra one with the Saints. The Saints came to Southern California for joint scrimmage with the Chargers, so technically nine teams, but the way I think I did it was, I think it was five states. I drove to Las Vegas and Arizona, and then I flew to San Jose, Seattle, and Denver, and going from Seattle to Denver, that's the one I felt. But yeah, man, I primarily got the West Coast teams. I got, you know, eight teams. The ones that were easy was the ones in my backyard in LA, the Cowboys, the Chargers, and the Rams, but you know, after the, I got on the plane. You know, at one point I started thinking, I don't know how you did it, Matt, because you were driving everything. Me driving to Las Vegas and Arizona, that was too much. I couldn't do any more car rides after that. Yeah, I didn't fly for any of them. I'm based outside of Chicago. You're based in Los Angeles, so you, your teams are more sprawling for you. I mean, you're not driving to Seattle from LA. For me, the longest drive I had was Kansas City, which was like six and a half hours each way. So I did, I did make that happen. But luckily, like Chicago to Indy's not bad. Indy to Cincinnati's a couple hours. You know, it wasn't, wasn't too bad. Look, we're going to get into Trey Lance. We're going to get into, there was an injury at Broncos camp earlier today before us recording with Jerry Jeudy, with what appears to be a hamstring injury. We'll talk about that a little bit. But I, I want to ask you, so the eight teams you saw, or the eight practices you was the most impressive? And was there a team that stood out to you, either good or bad, that you were kind of surprised by? Yeah, it's a tough question, man, because I was thinking that because I got, I got a good balance of really bad teams from Arizona. I saw our guy, Connor Orr, had him at one and 16 for the, for his win -loss record, a story that came out today. So they, they, they looked like they're going to be really bad. And it was tough for me to figure out who's who on that roster. So I got that. And then I got all the really good teams, like the 49ers, you know, I'm high on the Seahawks, you know, that from our doing our, our midsummer prediction, by the way, that was tough. We had to pick our Super Bowl teams in what, like April or May we're going to do it again. And I'm so happy about that, but the Seahawks look good. I like the Cowboys a lot, but every year it's the same thing. Like they get far and they don't get past the second round. So I can't commit to them. Same thing with the Chargers. They just don't go far. Like they're really hyped to have a lot of good players. So I keep going back to the 49ers because they've shown to me to at least get to the Super Bowl, or at least make it to the NFC title game. And then Brock Purdie being healthy. That to me was all I needed to see to say, you know what? I like the Seahawks, but I'm going to leave that bandwagon and go to the 49ers. Do you believe in Purdie? I mean, look, obviously you believe in him enough that you're, you're, you're high in the Niners, but you know, they'll roll with Purdie, which we knew they would, if he was healthy. Lance is the third string guy. And I know you wrote a piece on trail, Lance, we can get to him in a little bit here. The roster's stacked. I don't think anybody questions that. I mean, they have all pros literally in almost every single meeting room. They, they, they have guys everywhere. They have a very good head coach in Kyle Shanahan, but they've been a team that they haven't found their quarterback or at least they haven't proven to have found their quarterback yet. They went to Jimmy Garoppolo. Garoppolo, of course, now with the Raiders, who you saw as well during your tour.

"This episode of Markets Daily is sponsored by Kraken. It's Tuesday, August 22nd, 2023, and this is Markets Daily from CoinDesk. Hi, I'm Michelle Musso here with your crypto markets roundup. On today's show, we're talking Bitcoin, Coinbase, Circle and more. And just a reminder, CoinDesk is a new source and does not provide investment advice. Bitcoin and Ether held steady over the past 24 hours. XRP and Cardano prices slid for a second day as traders eased off riskier alternative cryptocurrencies with no major token in the green. On -chain data analytics tool Santiment noted mentions of quote, buy the dip unquote on social media forums has faded amid the sideways price action. A technical analytics indicator shows extreme oversold conditions in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as surging bond yields weigh over risk assets. Bitcoin's 14 -day relative strength index has dropped well below 30, indicating oversold conditions. The indicator has dropped to its lowest since the coronavirus -induced crash of March 2020. Relative strength index is a momentum indicator ranging from 0 to 100 that shows the asset's recent price movement in comparison with its average price movement over a specific period, usually 14 days. And now a look at last week's Bitcoin crash in the macro context. Bitcoin suffered one of its more dramatic declines ever last Thursday, at least in part thanks to the realization that a strengthening economy means interest rates are likely to stay on the rise. This week brings the Kansas City Federal Reserve's annual Jackson Hole economic symposium with a keynote speech Friday morning from U .S. Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell. After last week's Fed meeting minutes, there seems to be a consensus in the market that Powell will skew on the hawkish side during the Jackson Hole economic symposium. Stay tuned for after the break when we'll take a look at Coinbase and Circle. Meet the all -new Kraken Pro, the powerful, customizable, beautiful way to trade crypto. It's Kraken's most powerful trading platform ever, packed with trading features like advanced order management and analytics tools, all in a redesigned, modular trading interface. So head to pro .kraken .com and trade like a pro. Not investment advice. Some crypto products and markets are unregulated. The unpredictable nature of the crypto assets market can lead to loss of funds and profits, may be subject to capital gains tax. Welcome back. Cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase is getting a minority stake in Circle Internet Financial. Additionally, the companies are dissolving their Sentry Consortium partnership that had issued USD Coin, the world's second largest stablecoin. As part of the move, Circle will bring issuance and governance of USDC fully in -house. Also, six more blockchains will gain native support of USDC, bringing the total number of supported blockchains to 15. Coinbase and Circle, in a blog post and interviews with CoinDesk, did not disclose the size of the stake acquired by Coinbase. Coinbase did not give Circle cash for the stake, according to a person familiar with the matter. Also, Coinbase and Circle did not identify the six additional blockchains. Back in September, Circle said it planned to add Polkadot, NEAR, Optimism and Cosmos in 2023. Subsequent to that, Coinbase started its own blockchain called Base. There have been recent techonic shifts in the world of dollar peg stablecoins. Most recently, fintech giant PayPal took a step to shake up the dominance of Tether's USDT and Circle's USDC by introducing its own stablecoin token. PayPal could prove a worthy adversary to the existing stablecoins given its deep ties in payments and remittances. We'll now take a look at the latest in SPF's ongoing hearings. Sam Beckman -Fried pleaded not guilty to fraud and money laundering charges tied to the collapse of his crypto empire FTX last year, a court appearance today. The FTX founder was arraigned in the Southern District of New York courthouse after a new indictment accused him of using customer funds for everything from buying personal real estate to political donations. Beckman -Fried's trial is currently set to kick off in early October. And that's it for today's show. I'm Michelle Musso here with Markets Daily. Have a great day. And that's our show for today.

Coinbase and Circle, in a blog post and interviews with CoinDesk, did not disclose the size of the stake acquired by Coinbase. Coinbase did not give Circle cash for the stake, according to a person familiar with the matter. Also, Coinbase and Circle did not identify the six additional blockchains. Back in September, Circle said it planned to add Polkadot, NEAR, Optimism and Cosmos in 2023. Subsequent to that, Coinbase started its own blockchain called Base. There have been recent techonic shifts in the world of dollar peg stablecoins. Most recently, fintech giant PayPal took a step to shake up the dominance of Tether's USDT and Circle's USDC by introducing its own stablecoin token. PayPal could prove a worthy adversary to the existing stablecoins given its deep ties in payments and remittances. We'll now take a look at the latest in SPF's ongoing hearings. Sam Beckman -Fried pleaded not guilty to fraud and money laundering charges tied to the collapse of his crypto empire FTX last year, a court appearance today. The FTX founder was arraigned in the Southern District of New York courthouse after a new indictment accused him of using customer funds for everything from buying personal real estate to political donations. Beckman -Fried's trial is currently set to kick off in early October. And that's it for today's show. I'm Michelle Musso here with Markets Daily. Have a great day. And that's our show for today.

A highlight from How to Avoid Relapse in Sobriety

"Hey, everybody, welcome to the Addiction Unlimited podcast, where you get to learn everything you want to know about addiction and recovery. I'm your host, Angela Pugh, co -founder of Kansas City Recovery, Life Coach, and Recovering Alcoholic. To learn more about me, you can listen to episode zero on your podcast app or find us on the web at addictionunlimited .com. You've heard it before, right? Relapse is a part of recovery. So how do you actually avoid relapse? Hello my friend, Angela Pugh here. Welcome to another episode of the Addiction Unlimited podcast. I'm super excited about this episode because it's all about relapse prevention. You probably already know this is a huge topic and the truth is the vast majority of people relapse in their first year of sobriety. I've heard statistics that range anywhere from 85 % of people relapse to as high as 95 % of people. And I know through my own experiences and those of my clients that understanding relapse and having a plan in place to overcome it can dramatically change your life. What does that plan look like? How do you make a plan? We're going to get into some strategies and specifics today to help you get your head wrapped around where you want to focus in terms of your relapse prevention efforts. This episode is all things relapse prevention, not just because it's a huge topic, but because it's something we need to continually talk about to make sure you're putting your efforts in the right place and moving forward in your sober life. So tell me this, what are you currently doing or maybe not doing to ensure that you avoid the dreaded relapse day in and day out? I bring this up now too because we're transitioning into a new season, which brings new stressors. And stress is the number one reason for relapse. So summer is wrapping up, it's back to school time. Whether you have kids going back to school or you're a student yourself or a teacher, you don't need me or anyone else for that matter to tell you how critical it is to have a crystal clear understanding of how to avoid relapse. Also with a simple but powerful plan to make you successful. I know you're thinking like, thank you, Captain Obvious, you already know this. And by the same token, still about 85 to 95 % of people are relapsing. Most people are still struggling to avoid relapse and build a true alcohol -free lifestyle in a smart and sustainable way. Maybe you've had some small successes from listening to podcasts or reading books and maybe you've managed to stay sober for a few weeks or a month here and there. Or maybe you had a bad night and really embarrassed yourself and you stopped for a few months or half a year just on sheer willpower and shame. All of that is good. It's getting you closer to where you want to be. But it's still a far cry from having a simple plan and being consistent in your sober efforts so that you build a sober lifestyle that you and your family can rely on. Trust me on that. That's why we need to have this exact conversation today. I want you to feel confident to double down on your strategy to avoid relapse with a plan you feel good about. It's personalized, it fits your life, it accommodates your family and what you need and you feel really good about it. That's where I want you to be. I want to get you fully up to speed on the three pillars of relapse prevention and the exact strategies for each of those pillars so that you can focus your time and energy only on what you really want to be working on and you'll get the confidence you want to feel good in your life and not to feel like you're constantly looking over your shoulder waiting for a relapse to take you down. Instead of going down the rabbit hole of anxiety and overwhelm, waiting for the other shoe to drop, I want you to feel confident and empowered. Alcohol can't pour itself down your throat. You have a lot of power in this situation. That's what this episode is all about. I think it's important too that you fully understand where you want to go with this. Before we get into any of the how -tos, we have to set a foundation so that you feel really up to speed in terms of what to do and what works and what you're excited about implementing in your own sober strategy. By the end of this episode, my hope is that you'll have a really good understanding as to where you've gone wrong in the past and where you need to put a little more effort and focus now to make your relapse prevention plan stronger than it's ever been. Let's get into these three pillars of relapse prevention. These are the three most crucial areas to focus on and then we're going to dig into each one of them with some real strategies. What do you need to do in each of these? Number one is having strategies. You have to have specific strategies that can help you recognize and manage your triggers and cravings. Number two is a strong support system. Having a support system will significantly improve your sober efforts and your sober life all the way around. The third one is lifestyle changes and self -care. Remember when I said a minute ago that stress is the number one reason people relapse. Stress can come from all different areas of your life. My six -week program clients, the people that work with me privately, know we focus a ton on this part. We have to manage our stress. Again, there's a million different ways to do that and it's different for each of us in our lives. That's why it's important to have a customized plan and know what works for you and how to build that plan for your life and how you do life day in and day out. Going back to number one, relapse prevention strategies. You have to actually have some strategies here. The first part is identifying your triggers. You have to recognize situations, people, places, feelings that are triggering for you. A great way to do this is just start with a list. I also did an episode about triggers, specifically about triggers. I'll link it in the show notes if you want to go back and listen to that one. There's probably more than one, but there's one that's really standing out to me and I'll link that in the show notes for you. Make a list of your triggers. Maybe it is certain places. Maybe it's your drinking friends. Listen, if your drinking friends are triggering to you, it doesn't mean that you can't be friends with them anymore or that they're bad people or that you think you're better than them, that you don't hang out with them anymore because you're not drinking. It doesn't mean any of that. It just means you have to be more mindful. I definitely had those people that I always drink with, that our relationship really was focused around drinking together. We didn't have deep friendships and deep conversations, except like those drunk conversations, which barely count because most of the time you or they don't remember it anyway or parts of it, but those were triggering people for me because our whole involvement as friends revolved around drinking. I want you to keep this in perspective too because this is the same situation in a million other situations in your life, meaning that just like when you have coworkers that you really enjoy and maybe you have lunch together every day, but the bulk of your conversation or your connection is around your workplace because you work together. Maybe a lot of your conversations really revolve around complaining about your job or who you don't like or talking about other coworkers.

Mark J. Brandenburg's New Book Reveals Truth About Police Stress

"I'm talking to Arthur, author Mark Brandenburg about his brand new book, Fence Jumper. It's about a Secret Service agent who gets into some trouble and then it develops into a DC novel of manners. But Mark, I told you when we were going out. You introduced Metropolitan Police Detective Derek Rowland on page forty nine and on page two, you know, 250 pages later, he's having a conversation with a young FBI agent outside the Willard Hotel in his Crown Vic, which is really kind of a serious moment about being a local policeman. Did you put that in there purposely? I did. I did. So before I was a Secret Service agent, I was a police officer in a suburb of Kansas City, a police department for five years. Now, obviously, I've worked with police officers all over the country. So Derek Rowland, I'm glad you like the character so much because he's one of the most enjoyable characters to write in the entire work. And it just kind of came easy because I had met so many police officers. I know the personalities. He's an aging Metro cop who's seen it all. And he was just a fun character to write. And also having him play off the younger FBI agent who at first he's not real thrilled with, but as it progresses, the relationship gets better. And he's also a coincidentally, Derek Rowland, one of my best friends, is still a police officer. Johnny Rowland is kind of an ode to him. That's why I named him Rowland at the end. Well, I got to say, when you say there comes a time when you're just tired of being lied to and then you talk about the emotional toll. I was just in my 45th college reunion and one of my buddies has a son who's a cop on a major Metropolitan Police Department, and she's convinced that every street cop has got to have a mandatory meeting with a counselor every three to six months because of the accumulated amount of mental stress. And you communicate that in three pages. It's like talking to Hillary when I talk to her about her son, because, my gosh, the stress just is cumulative.

"Tout really i mean. If he was doing that on a team like the chiefs in primetime he'd become a household name like with that kind of campaign. Oh one hundred percent. i think jerry's does become a household name. I don't think it's a jalen ramsey type of situation. But marcus peters made a name for himself here and that was with a high volatility type of Know type of top style. You know all or nothing legitimate need. I don't wanna say is all or nothing. But he has more on the aggressive side. Yeah and he's not afraid to tackle so no he's not. He's echoing forum. Who do you got on the offensive side. I'm going to go. Joe tony and and I think this offensive line is going to be everything that people wanted to be. And i think in the end you gotta give it to one player and i you know everyone is either brand new or new to a position and i think by the season's end. We're gonna say joe. Tony has been about all the offensive lineman on that line are gonna go. It helps so much to have a proven anchor right in the interior to help. The young guys grow to help orlando brown. Make the transition to a different offense. He's been in that championship culture before and this line lost all their leader. So you know it just makes sense to me four for tuning to kinda the representative of that bunch And then on the defensive side. I think chris jones is gonna get fifteen plus sacks so when you do that on a team like the chiefs i have a hard time picking anyone else as very fair i. It's just. I can't argue kansas city though has so many guys to choose from. That's how you know they're so deep. I really like your joe tune pick. I wanted to pick some of the offense aligned. Because you know me. I think oh line makes more of a difference in the running back themselves..

"Pump the brakes. Let's let's do this. who's the vp of this team on both sides of the ball. You can't say. Patrick mahomes okay but really quickly though i had a really good comeback but i was gonna say what am i george westinghouse because he created the the air brake system trains. That was a really big poll. But if you watch the show archer you might have gotten that reference Or believe you went back to explain all of that. Yeah was like you. it's a joke in archer. it's a joke. They would make like that in the show archer. Yeah i get it. It was. I'm rambling but i thought it was really funny and my dome so i thought other people. Should you know what people should spend just like four minutes inside my head so there you go. That's what you get when you're inside my dome taste every week. I appreciate the the slight peaks behind the curtain. I get yeah yeah and taste song by tiga see always has some every word has a correlation to something else you asked what. Mvp offense defense correct and it can't be patrick mahomes correct correct okay. That's great because offensively. I had paddock Offensively i if the chiefs are going to be taken to the next level. I kinda wanna say. It's going to be clyde edwards hilar- and hear me out. I'm the captain of running backs. Don't really matter. But i think going to be putting up insane counting stats this year. I think offensive line should be getting more of the credit because is completely revamped but with so many new guys the ovens align is going to be difficult to point to one of them so give it to clyde. I think is going to be used a lot more in the passing game. I think we're gonna see a lot more use it from him When it comes to getting passes thrown his way. I think he's gonna be very effective. I think that's his best trait. Also he's got a lot of touchdowns new offense align we're talking at some massive just bodies upfront. We're gonna see a lot more push going on especially in the red zone. I think we're gonna see a lot more touchdowns from clyde no longer. We see Four tops no longer. Will we see a fourth and one in a screen pass to blake beller. Travis kelsey going in china the ball to patrick and the like. We're just going gonna say okay. Let's just move. The defense align elect clyde walk in so all the county numbers are gonna be for clyde. So that's who..

"Your love matt stafford big dude all always had in his career has been calvin johnson and then nothing and a whole bunch of peewee players so the fact that he now gets to go to a team with a bona fide elite defense defected. The rams have very solid wide receivers all around You know i don't. The rams are going to be like a fourteen to three regular team. But i think there may be eleven and six maybe twelve and five very tough division. So they're going to beat up on each other. But i think the winner in the nfc is gonna come from the west. I mean the bucks were eleven and five last year and looked looked mortal and then you know of course. They decimated the chiefs in super bowl. So yeah you know. There's there's nothing to sneer at. If a team does lose five six games in the regular season you know it only matters those last few games of the year. So i get it so you got i think the chiefs goes sixteen and one and i think the only one loss is the final week of the season when they rest all their starters. Oh how's that cool. What flavor all of us. I guess cherry red so i'm just drinking it all man. I just don't think there's even a competition to be had here to be frank. I think the change from the table behind a brand new offensive line. I mean unless there's a catastrophic injury and i don't even mean an injury to like orlando brown junior. I still think the chiefs around the table. If if even like a key player goes down. I think if they lose one of the five guys who were in the. Nfl's top one hundred. You've got a problem other than that. I think the chiefs run the table like they said they want to So yeah that's what got dude just in today's nfl. I think it is nearly. I'm not saying it's impossible. But i'm saying extremely extremely difficult to go. Sixty one seventy. No i mean that extra game you don't know of people getting sat and like you said that's why you have them losing the one game because you think it'll be sitting starters y- but the nfl at this point there's just so much talent There's so many good quarterbacks in today's nfl Analytics are starting to drive the way the game is being played. Their teams are throwing more again. It no one expected the raiders to beat qena city last year they did it in a analytical way and untraditional way for the raiders but a away where they go ever teams trying to run against kansas city right. That's not working their offense to talented so the only way to beat them as he goes score score go over the top and take advantage of a at the time. What was a decently week secondary. you know. i think that's the only way teams could be. Kennedy is going over the top and if all teams try gone over the top and they hit on some deep throws. I think it's possible that kennedy could lose a game or two that they're obviously expected to win. Yeah look i. i wouldn't disagree that it's possible. But here's what i think you said in today's nfl. And my response to that. Is i understand that sentiment. But i think the chiefs are setting today's.

"Him mark as a guy that was kind of on the fringe. I think he probably is on the outside looking in just because they're carrying so many. Dvd's but you know. I agree with you. I mean you're you're actually making some plays so again. He's maybe one of those guys you think he's got potential. You give him the nod over a guy who doesn't really produce defensively like an on line see this is. What's so funny. Though is we're talking about guys get. It's way easier on our side when we talked about this for a living. It's easy to take the emotion sometimes because the end of the day these are guys will be getting cut. So it's we anything. I broadly speaking for you as well. Anything that we say We don't take any any joy in saying this guy's not gonna make the chief her. We don't take any any sort of joy. It's nothing personal. It's nothing along those lines. Because again i always end up feeling bad when guys get cut like even talk oh charleston. I was like man. That really sucks. You feel for these guys. This is their livelihood. They put their heart and soul into everything they've done to get to this point and i think what's special though at least for some of these guys they're going to get a lot of other opportunities cities and such birds spot. They're so talented. So deep it. So many positions other team are gonna pick guys up. And they have the india read touch they. They've been around some guys you know they've been around some championships have been around a super bowl. So i'm hoping that a lot of these guys say it's darwin thompson says games we've seen kennedy chiefs uniform for a while now. If they're not here. I hope they at least get another opportunity. Well i laughing all say to you know. I think you'd rather be cut from the chiefs then cut from say you know not to non-tobacco on the raiders. But you'd rather be from the chiefs in there and you know at the end of the day you might get brought. I think there's a number of these guys you know even a dr thompson and You know derek beaters. Those guys are probably unless they get claimed are the chiefs are probably gonna bring back a dr one thompson just because if you got him on the practice lod somebody goes down. That's an easy guy you can pull back up. He's at least familiar with the guys familiar with the game. So yeah i'm with you. I think you know it's definitely is helping sad. But at the end of the day Is probably going to send some of these guys careers. I mean today to be on the chiefs practice squad might be better than being on the new york jets actual squad. So you got that going for you guys research jordan. This was a lot of fun elite right here jordan. Mannix follow him on twitter. Working people find you what you got going on next.

"Fame here in our office and digital at so fun i i just i love that. It's like a game education of it. In a way. But i i liked that it may be takes you especially if you live in kansas city kansas or you visit quite a bit it takes you out of that rut of going to the same place all the time because you know it's good and it gives you a chance to kind of explore a little bit beyond with food you know you like but to a different experience such a lot of fun to us yet and we've seen people so we launched the trail back in october and with with roughly fifty locations is what we're telling people you go to one place a week and you've hit all of the locations on the trail over the course of a year and we've seen people doing that we have somebody although they're going to more than one place a week We we have somebody from lawrence kansas. Which is about thirty minutes away. Who completed the trail in about two months. I believe driving from lawrence and going and hitting different spots. But we've seen so many people. And i think that's what you know is the motivation of this trails. We want to showcase our community and the neighborhoods in our community and so a lot of these are small businesses small mom and pop businesses. Immigrant owned businesses. You know so there places that that you know when you're searching for a location. They're probably going to be very under the radar but the taco trail makes him a little bit more accessible than what are easy to find. That is so true there places that you probably would look at it and go. That's probably really good. But i'm just not sure but using using that app it really does guide you to some amazing spots Like i said jesus probably someplace. I would have driven by and not stopped but gosh that art cohen fried taco for breakfast was just absolutely amazing. They they do great things. You're right it's one of those places it's it's it's a window you walk up to. There's no no no indoor. you can't go inside. You sit outside but they create some amazing food and you know you said earlier. There's so many different styles of restaurants and tucker. Is you know. There's the grocery store base. We have several of those. Where you it's it's a it's a top korea you know count a taco counter essentially in a in a grocery store got san antonio is a great one need only show a con Don antonio's there's so many of these So there's so many great experiences you can have that that lesson you you you may have overlooked otherwise so well fitting in. You know as many tacos as you eat into a visit in kansas city. Kansas is definitely a worthy goal. You need to do things to burn off the calories so let's talk a little bit about what visitors to the city can experience when they do come down outside of the amazing food. Yeah so so. We're part of the kansas city metro area. So sometimes people get confused that there are two. Kansas city's there's kinsey missouri. Which is the bigger city kinsley kansas. Where the smaller cousin. And there's some great experiences you can have over here. Are prime visitor. Area is an area called village west. It's on the western side of the metro area So as you're coming in from the west and it is it is I call it our tourist tourism ready area. So there's a lot of hotels out there to stay in the legends outlets. Which is this great outdoor shopping mall where you can have all kinds of experiences A lot of different restaurants out there are sports. Stadiums are out there so if you like nascar racing that's where the nascar track is Our professional soccer both men's and women's play play out there. teams There's the casey monarchs which is our Independent baseball league. So it's a great family experience and you've got some great such some great places to stay out there so great great experiences out there. You know if you want to be more active right now. You know people trying to get outdoors more. There's there's some great things you can do in in our downtown area. We have a mural on your lock that you can take and export some murals The tel kind of the the multicultural story of kansas city. Kansas throughout throughout downtown. We're located along the kansas river. The confluence of missouri and kansas river is at cop point here in in downtown kansas city kansas. So so there's some there's some trails that you can go out and hike down there as well as there's some companies that offer some tours. Urban hikes is a great one where you can go and learn about kind of history in the buildings of of kansas city kansas. We've also got a lake county lake so if you if you like to get on the water you can do that. And and we have a new business just opened its offering clamping so you can stay outside and enjoy enjoy the outdoors and we did some zip-lining while we were there as k c. Has a great spot just outside of the city so if you need a little adrenaline rush. That was so much fun. The girls really enjoyed that. So you're going to find obviously plenty of things to do. And you mentioned the glancing experience which we did and that's at a ranch which it was funny because you're driving through a residential area. And you think your. Gps has to be wrong. Because there's not gonna be a ranch in a quarter mile when you're surrounded by houses but boom there it was and then that glancing experience is is off to the back that you can do horseback riding there as well so some really great outdoor experiences. We love that you know. I think more people are embracing the outdoors in urban settings. Like you say you don't really expect an urban setting to find some of these outdoor experiences. So we're glad to offer some of that here in kansas city kansas in our in our very much city environment. Otherwise it's just such a fun place to visit so alan if people are interested in getting down tasting the taco trail and planning their own visit to kansas city kansas. What is the best place for them to get more information on that. And are there any social accounts that they should maybe follow along with to get inspiration. Yeah so our website is visit. Kansas city ks dot com. And you can go and find everything there is to do in kansas city kansas. An offshoot of that again is our taco trails. Kkk tucker dot com. You can learn all about that and follow us on social. I believe it's the same handles visit inside chaos On instagram and facebook is where we primarily are terrific. Thank you allan so much for sharing with us about those flavors of kansas city. Kansas and you're terrific taco trailing i think i may have to go and have some tacos for loans delicious again.

"Both in seattle and in san francisco. They played a lot of cover. Three the chiefs play a lot of man. They play a lot of of up in. Your face pressman coverage. It's not really a fit for richard sherman. I think richard sherman to kansas city would be a very bad idea. He can't run and at this point like kansas city. Now look you say well brillant camera preloaded mall the hell out of at the line of scrimmage. Could sherman come in and play while. He's a hall of fame town. I'm not saying the guy beat like a drum. we're not talking about stanford route here. But i don't see i. I would be surprised. I think the chiefs going into camp like you got sneed. You have ward. Who i think is another guy is making a break for him. This year. you have fat. And why like. I think shot fans on the radio. Then you have baker k. Who's the guy who they felt.

"He played some injury at the end of the year. He was much much better and he was great. The postseason five sacks in the playoffs last year played fifteen games had six sacks. It's six sacks twenty nine talking soccer no way no way. And you're going to end up going to get quarterbacks. You need like a guy like tom brady you. You gotta get pressure on. You have to just going. I don't care how old he is. He'll carve you brian and do you think that that's part of the the investment in the interior that line. I mean that's the kind of book brady right. Get pressure up the middle. Get him off a spot mess up as everything. Do you think that they were thinking in the back of their mind. I mean you get as many good players as you can right. You're on available. Sign up if you can but do you think in the back of each mind a little bit he's thinking about maybe a rematch with the bucks. Honestly i don't i think it's more about the fact that reader's just there and he's a really good player but also i think more aiming it's about look we can get reading here. Joe's is gonna get doubled all the time but now it's a single up clark more one on one. It should be harder to chip. It should single a burrito one on one shooter. They were playing nadi stern wart or good players. But they're not the pass rushers at this point the read is i mean not. He's a run stuffer right. You look at last year. They know what's good enough. Let's just call a spade spe- you go down and look. I mean chris. Jones led the team with seven and a half sacks down year by his standards. Which by the way still great for an interior russia. But for him. I mean he has almost double that frank clark chicks. Then you'll lose. paseo did nothing. He had a shock weren't and had two sacks down ahead two and a half sacks. I think the of all the guys who you look at and say you might be looking at a sleeper. I think it's dan. Because danny did not play a ton of snaps last season. But that's the one thing that you know you see we'll only two and a half sacks okay fine sure..

"That doesn't mean they don't feel good about them. But i've just been told humphrey. Smith gray day are very high on these kids years. We get ready to get into the summer exciting very exciting stuff to hear. Just one last thing on the on the ray tackle bowel for tackle. You think no no chance for donald stevenson to make the team this year I don't think donald stevenson could make right bench on the news. Yeah absolutely okay so one of the questions that we got from you all was the first one came from at kc five seven one v. This person wants to know what we think about the offensive line. Gelling pretty much a brand new line for the chiefs this year. Do you have concerns about that. Especially with the number of rookies could potentially be starting what we talked about a little right I think you're fool if you have any concern if that was the way checks and i think there's a real chance of does i think for a gambling man's purposes. I think there's a very good chance to to rookies. Starting very very good but yeah you have to be concerned. How good you look in camp. How good you look in practice when you've got shells on okay. That's a whole nother animal. When you're in a regular season game. And i'll tell you right now i'll give you the game. I'd be most concerned about early. We to against the ravens because they blitz like crazy. You better be ready. You better have a lot of communication because all takes mission one bullets pickup. And patrick mahomes wearing. That would be my concern is now. You have mahomes who has been now in the league for a few years. Who's very smart. Who will help them get into the right protections in that matters. that shouldn't be understated. That's important especially with the rookie. Secreted humphry. He made all the calls college but colleges all ways away from the pros. They are going to see things in the pros. they've not seen in the big twelve. Okay so yeah concerned. Yes now i do think it also does matter that the chiefs would have in that scenario. They would have good backups. Everywhere right you'd have remers who's a backup stalwart veteran tackle. You have either all year long. Backup at right guard you'd have life etc so these kids would have a safety net. If it doesn't go well you could go to one of those vets and feel confident that you're not going to have some big drop off but yes i would have concern. Yes but i will say this i think ultimately you play who the best players are and kansas city comes out at camp and even those are the three best guys those spots you plant you..

"Can help you keep winning and i think brady's at a stage in his career where he's not going to be running around back they're making matt too many place happen so he needs somebody to throw the ball to and we saw what happened in new england when he didn't have that and as greatest mahomes is right. Yeah alwin don't make the playoffs. They'll they'll be able to beat teams. We've watched them do it. Tyreek has been hurt before right like no sammy watkins like they've beat the teams that they're supposed to be probably but when it comes to the playoffs when it comes to going up against the browns are the bills are they're in the super bowl and they're playing aaron rodgers and the packers or something like that and and teams are selling out. And they're good. You've got a problem. And so for all the chiefs fans who are like. Julio jones is always hurt which is not true. Look up how many games he plays every season. And oh it's give the draft picks. I'm telling you man like if they can do it they should. Because i do think they really need. And maybe it's not. Julio jones you know maybe they trade for somebody else. There are a lot of other wide receivers in the league. Who are good. Who may be the chiefs. Could target. Brian traders down dre hawkins. Oh yeah cities that get get. Get on get on the phone arizona and on a mighty at the out a window when he saw that trade. Yeah yeah i'm andrea was happy. You went to the nfc but my beach like mike.

"Let's talk about. This is interview. That alex smith did. He was just asked about the roger situation. And it really. It turned out to be like what a lot of people were calling a great pr interview for the chiefs. Because they asked him about rogers and how they handle it and so. I think it was the dan patrick show and they asked him. Like how did the chiefs the chiefs tell you before they drafted. And if you don't i'm talking about obviously aaron rodgers very disgruntled with packers says he wants out and a lot of it seems to stem from the fact that a couple of years ago they took jordan love in the first round instead of help for their super bowl contending team and help for rogers so and they didn't tell him that he didn't know they just drafted this guy so the question was you know what what did the chiefs do when they took mahomes. Did they tell you that they were doing. And here's what alex smith said. He said absolutely that had been communicated the entire season leading up to that the entire offseason by multiple multiple people. Everybody in the personnel department coach. Reid constantly there were multiple phone calls about what was happening. That happened when we drafted cap with coach harbaugh. When he was in san francisco. I know well. I knew well in advance what the team was thinking the route that they were going to go and i think that makes a difference. It does honestly and errands case going out of your way to let him know how the team feels about them. How the organization feels about them. How important he is and that. Potentially they're thinking this route and explaining their thinking clearly from an outside looking in it didn't happen and it didn't take place so first of all alex smith was this was just the chiesa. They respected the hell out. Alex smith right. Yes alex smith and the same thing with the forty niners. Anybody who you over here. Talk about alex. Smith just raised about the guy and what a professional he is but both of these teams did with a guy who was not on the level of a roger mahomes. He wasn't the franchise. They're drafting quarterbacks. For a reason right what what are the what were the packers thinking here to not involve aaron rodgers and say and i think here's the thing these athletes unfairly get called prima donnas a lot of the time and i think that in a situation like this. It's you know you get fans on there and they're they're always taking this out of the ownership enrich billionaires for some reason. I don't understand but they're like oh well you know it's booze news and they need to look for the future of the team which i think aaron rodgers understands that. I think the idea here is that like if you can't be like let's have a conversation about it. Shows me that you value me right now. And everything i've done for this franchise. I brought this franchise tons of money. I brought this ranch as a super bowl championship. And you just like you go and make this massive move without even consulting them. The leader of the team. What are these teams thinking when they when they do this stuff. Well in this case not much sometimes players are premadonna sh and sometimes you know that that is totally fair. Characterization of away guy accent also fans root for ownership in these skirmishes because they for the laundry. They root for the they were for the team and the team is represented by ownership players. Transient ownership runs a team. So on and so that said aaron rodgers has every right to be pissed the dated explain to him.

"And it's just gonna be one of those sleepy like our in tennessee. Who the hell cares. And derrick. Henry rushed for one hundred sixty yards and they lose. And then you gotta hear about all the. Is there a chicken the arm and then she's on rip off seven straight wins that that's how i see you when you look at it. It doesn't seem so we know how difficult it is. Obviously just because so many things can go wrong. it's football. it's a weirdly shaped ball that stuff but when you look at them. Last year i mean they. They went in my view. They went fourteen right like that last game. Throw it out. I think the homes is playing. They would have beaten the chargers but you never know they could have slipped up but they lost it in my view last year. They lost two games. They were trying to win. That was that raiders game and the super bowl which is incredible. And this is. This is the season after they won the super bowl which historically teams do not make it back a little bit of a super bowl hangover. Right so i think we all agree that they didn't play great last year. They didn't play up to their standards. And every game they they drove us a little bit crazy but they always found a way to win from a mentality standpoint. How is this team differ going into the season because for me i feel like if there was a season where they would have a chance to go undefeated. It would be this season because from mentality standpoint. You got a lot of guys coming back. That are pissed off pissed off that they lost super bowl pissed off about the way that they lost the super bowl. And so maybe whereas the twenty twenty cheese kinda thought like yeah like You know it's all about the super bowl for us. We just need to get to the regular season so they sleep walk through some games. They turn it on they win. Could we see a team this year. That comes out just there. I think for a team to go undefeated..

I mean for just over a million dollars and just thinking really like no one else is gonna pony up five hundred thousand more than that. For this proven pass rush. I mean i. It's funny things happen sometimes in the nfl and they don't have a great explanation. And maybe this is one of who knows wait. You know what really quickly though. I think one of the things the nfl is what they do. Everything gets caught in the thinking of potential everyone just gets a namur d- with potential and what he could be in this and that and the nfl is a little different business. That baseball were baseball. You get paid for what you have done in football. You typically get paid for what you think you can do. So no one's paying brilliant for what he's done with kansas city. No one's paying him for his past three good years. Whatever it's been ever insane. What are you going to do for us. It's just a different business. And i think maybe that's where it comes into it is. Maybe he's taken so many one year deals people are nervous about his age. Maybe they're nervous for him to fall off. But that's the only thing i could think of is the whole potential type of situation. Yeah no i. i don't disagree with you. It's it's it's going to be interesting to see where he lands. He will land and it will be interesting to see where when and what the story is when he does. We'll be right back after the break with a little bit more on. Julio jones and some random chiefs things.
