What started as a check-in about staying consistent quickly turned into a deep dive into addiction, identity, fear, and the moments that force you to grow up.

We’ve both walked away from alcohol and destructive habits — but not in the way people usually talk about it.

No rehab. No 12-step program. No dramatic announcement.

Just moments that hit hard enough to change something.

This isn’t about preaching sobriety. It’s about accountability. It’s about identity. It’s about choosing to become someone better — even when it’s uncomfortable.

If this episode helps one person pause, reflect, or make a better decision today… we did our job.

Episode 013 of the DAILYdEPOSITS Podcast was recorded outdoor in Playa Del Rey — right after one of our last beach cleanup. David and Troy reflect on the energy of the day, the locals who showed up, and what it means to build real community without overcomplicating things. From simplifying the cleanup process to learning from past frustrations, this episode is about showing up, staying consistent, and letting intention lead.

This isn’t about optics. It’s about action.

In this episode of DAILYdEPOSITS, we sit down with Sam Orellana — comic book illustrator, content creator, and the mind behind Death Club — for a real 2-hour conversation on creativity, business, fatherhood, and the mental side of building something from scratch.

We talk about everything from growing up in LA and finding your lane, to the realities of selling art, using Kickstarter, and learning how to stay calm through pressure — on the mat and in life.

This episode is for anyone trying to build a life, build a brand, and still show up for the people who depend on them.
