I AM CHANGING DESTINATION DIFFERENT 10:01

2+ y ago10:01

10:01

After 127 episodes it feels about time to make some changes to the podcast. I've done a lot of thinking over the last few weeks. While there are some bright spots and I do truly believe I'm onto something with this podcast, the show is lacking the momentum and the focus that great podcasts have. Because of that, I'm going to take time to make much-…

Up until July of 2021 college athletes couldn't make money off their own name, image, or likeness.

That all changed last summer with some new NIL legislation. And Pat Johnson saw …

3y ago1:08:30

1:08:30

I am very familiar with the concept of recycling. You drink a beer, then you put your can in the little green bin with the circular arrows. Upcycling on the other hand... not as familiar.
