Mere Mortals

What is Effective Philosophy? Juan and I simplify hard to grasp concepts into pragmatic takeaways that can be applied to every day life (fitness, goal setting, work, parenting, travel, hobbies, finances, etc.,). 2 x episodes a week. We go live every Wednesday with our meanderings, plus an extra as a more casual conversation with a guest or between ourselves.

NFT's: Are They A Fad?!?!


A listener suggested topic (props to Petar), are NFT's just the current hype or do they have some lasting value?

Emphasis as always is on the shortcomings; what we didn't achieve in the previous monthly goals and how we will fix that for the month that comes. We hope you get some value from this series, showcasing our own methodology...

ROYCE DUNNE | Australia's 2021 Torian Pro Winner, Games Athlete, Mayhem Athlete, Dad And Husband


I got the chance to sit down with the big man himself, Royce Dunne, and briefly touch on competing, the mentality to keep on going, competing at the games, being in the storm, being an athlete and a father and his two great takeaways. Small audio issues towards the end of the video did not stop us from having a good time.
