Great podcast

I really enjoy your podcast. I heard about you from Dr Phil McGraw podcast when he advised about your earlier this year. I like how you keep it fun and informative in about ten minutes. I like how you say “let’s do this” for the past two months I have binge listened to all your previous podcast episodes from the first episode to present during my 8 hour work day at my assembling job. Even thou it was old news I still learned a lot past stories and interviews you do on your Special edition Saturdays.
