Episode description

Did you know that over 600,000 people die of heart disease in the U.S. every year?

That’s an astounding 1 out of every 4 deaths.

Well today we’re here with one of my old friends from Austin, Texas, Mr. Carl Swanson, a man who somehow stubbornly survived 5 heart attacks and turned his health around for the better.

Carl is a former army Scout for a tank battalion with the 9th Infantry Division, he’s worked for Dell and CNN, and is a self-starter who’s done everything from being a tour guide, owning a food cart, and even starting a cheesecake business.

And no joke, Carl’s cheesecakes are some of the best I’ve ever had—you’ll hear a bit about that on today’s show.

We’re chatting about:

  • How to reclaim your health after 5 heart attacks
  • Food and service entrepreneurship in Austin, TX
  • Ham Jam, a community-food music-based get together
  • Why we should embrace our weirdness
  • The secret to the best cheesecake in the world
  • And tons more…
