In this episode, Q and Shane tackle the booming world of biohacking — from cold plunges to sleep trackers to supplements — and ask the real question: Do these tools actually work, or are we just buying shiny gadgets to feel in control of our busy lives?

They explore the psychology behind biohacking trends, the role of clever marketing, and why discipline and self-promises still outperform any expensive gadget. Shane breaks down how simple acts of discomfort, like cold showers, build confidence and resilience that transfer directly into business and fatherhood.

The conversation also dives into the importance of balance: how to integrate health practices without letting them take away from family time or becoming obsessive. Because at the end of the day, a tool should improve your life — not take over it.

Perfect for dads, entrepreneurs, or anyone looking to grow stronger from the inside out.

In this episode, Shane and Eric dive deep into the growing hunger for real human connection in a world dominated by virtual meetings and online communication. Fresh off a powerful men’s retreat in the Snowy Mountains, Eric shares how in-person events create deeper bonds, more authentic conversations, and transformative experiences that simply can’t be replicated on Zoom.

They explore the unique magic of live workshops, hallway chats, and shared physical challenges—from mountain climbs to symbolic rituals that help men shed old identities and step into new versions of themselves. Together, they unpack the role of discomfort, repetition, and action in personal growth, especially as New Year’s resolutions approach.

In this episode, Shane and Q dive into a surprising connection — why men, especially dads and business owners, often splurge during sales events like Black Friday. Is it burnout, boredom, or just bad spending habits?

They unpack the psychology behind male spending patterns, the pressure of the holiday season, and the fine line between treating yourself and self-sabotage. From counterfeit watches to buyer’s remorse, they share personal stories and lessons on mindful spending, authentic marketing, and how to make purchasing decisions that actually align with your values.

This episode is part reflection, part reality check — a timely reminder to buy with intention, live with purpose, and recognize when “retail therapy” is really just a cry for rest.
