She's Back! On Episode 126, Melissa Belzer joins me. Since we haven't dine a deck in 36 episodes, we decided to break them out again and do the Thinking Time Business Edition Deck from Best Self. First though, Melissa thought it would be fun to grab random CDs off the shelf and see if I even remember the artist. There are thousands of them so it is highly likely that she could grab one I don't remember. After that, we went into one card topic. If influencer marketing was your only available chan...

On episode 116, it is another solo episode. As we all gear up for 20024 and give up on this year ( hey, calling it like I see it, lol), I figured I would do an episode on rubbish.

Episode 113 is a solo episode. In fact, it was a spur of the moment recording last night that has been on my mind for the past several days. The question I asked myself was, if I could share two, and only two, of Dad's Rules with my listeners and YouTube viewers that would help them in 2024, which two would I choose? Well, that was easy! Rule #15 - The Thirty Minute Whine AND Rule #19 - It's All Your Fault Now, both rules have been mentioned in previous episodes as well as in the upcoming Dad's ...
