  • So close with Patric Gagne

    You came so close to hitting a home run on this podcast with your brilliant guest Dr. Patric Gagne. It's a shame you couldn't let her finish a sentence, wouldn't allow her to answer any of your questions, and couldn't bring yourself to give her a beat to complete a thought before you jumped all over her words and cut her off and talked all over her and completely derailed everything she was offering your audience.

  • Matthew McConaughey 7/17/26

    Good show, but wow Matthew McConaughey sounds terminally self-involved. There is barely any content in the interview besides repeated attempts at self-mythologizing. Overly detailed and at times quite repetitive. Some things come down to tone and implication, many of his remarks are mildly smug and self-congratulatory. Sort of reminded me of the 60 Minutes segment with Jamie Lee Curtis. Aside from the criticism, he gave great performances in Dazed and Confused (1993), Contact (1997), and sm... more

  • Lewis talks too much

    I really enjoy the presenters Lewis has on his show but please - stop interjecting with useless filler comments which add nothing to the discussion! The episode would be a lot shorter and therefore much more digestible! For example: on the Scott Donnell podcast, Scott gave plenty of examples of good values one should have. We could have moved on from there but Lewis had to keep adding and giving synonyms for the words Scott used. We get it! Scott explained it sufficiently! I don’t want to listen... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Heal Your Trauma or Stay at War With Yourself | Robin Sharma
Q: How does someone go from the victim to the hero leap?
Sharma advises trusting instinct and taking the first step, while changing self-defeating language, routines and surroundings to support new behavior.
Heal Your Trauma or Stay at War With Yourself | Robin Sharma
Q: How do you use the AFRA tool?
Sharma says to become present, notice where a feeling or tension appears in the body, and consider what earlier wound the trigger may have awakened.
You Can't Buy Inner Peace, Here's How to Find It | Yung Pueblo
Q: Can you walk us through what those stages are?
He describes four stages for designing a life: set an intention, translate it into action, consistently follow through, and remain adaptable enough to let go of strategies that no longer fit.
You Can't Buy Inner Peace, Here's How to Find It | Yung Pueblo
Q: What is the definition of inner peace for you? And how does someone actually find inner peace?
He defines inner peace as having mental spaciousness to acknowledge tension without letting it determine one's actions. It comes from learning to handle problems internally rather than expecting money or perfect circumstances to eliminate stress.
The Ancient 4-Step Method to Clear Your Mind | Shaolin Master Shi Heng Yi
Q: Why do you think most people fail to manifest what they want?
Shi says people repeat mistakes because they have not yet learned their lesson or reached the point of changing their behavior. He compares it to touching a hot plate repeatedly until a person decides to stop, and says readiness often shows up in the questions people begin asking.
