On the weekends when I was a kid, my parents would cozy up next to each other on the couch. There’d usually be a football or baseball game on TV. Then seemingly out of nowhere, they’d start play-wrestling. My dad would say, “Aw, don’t give me that sh*t!” or “That’s your a$$, woman!” Meanwhile, I
Are You Prepared to Witness a Miracle? with Scott Dantonio
This week, I asked my brother, Scott, to join me on the podcast. He says that he “witnessed a miracle” last week. Truth is, he caused that miracle. Since the day of the miracle, a young boy’s dad has referred to my bro as “my son’s angel.” It was a day like any other. Scott

From Survival to Success
When I was 23 years old, I attended a seminar on how to be a successful salesperson that I paid $499 to attend. While that may not sound like a huge chunk of money, for me, $499 amounted to one week’s pay—if I made a sale. I wasn’t entirely naïve—I did have the foresight to
Dreams Come True at Victoria Falls (Africa)
My buddy, Adam, and I, did a homestay in Lusaka, Zambia. There was a 20-year old kid who worked there named Bonie (pronounced bō-knee). He spoke a sophisticated English, and always had a smile on his face. The trip was back in 2015, so I don’t remember the first thing Bonie said when we met him.
