  • Chicken Wings & Rock Science!

    I’ve listened to episode 1 and I’m hooked! I loved how surprising and funny the podcast is with Kevin, Matt & Destin (from Smarter Everyday) talking about everything from rocket science to chicken wings! Oh, and the controversial topic of “eating hotdogs vertically”

    Thanks Kevin, Matt and Destin for making my day!

Are Movie Theaters Really Dead?
Q: What would have to happen to bring you back to a theater?

What Is "Trying"? Seriously.
Q: If I asked you to describe what trying is, how would you do that?
Kevin elaborates on trying being more than just an effort; it involves setting clear goals, analyzing failures, and persistent self-reflection to understand what stops someone from achieving their goals.
