    Scott offers useful insights and self improvement advice, however, every episode I’m fast forwarding through the first 6+ minutes of sponsors, Scott selling his coaching, and essentially nonsense.

Not zoning out because I’m listening to a sales pitch.

    This guy is amazing. I stumbled upon Scott’s podcast way back in the day. Like, I’m talking in 2006-ish…when podcast were just becoming a thing. Scott was on the cutting edge back then, as he is now. He introduced me to the whole concept of mental health. He has taught me how to go after a goal and get it no matter what!

  • Scott, I love the new theme song

    I think the new theme song is what you would call for an “ earworm”. A song you can’t get out of your head.
