    Not All Masculinity Is Toxic: The Truth Everyone Needs to Hear | Jon McQueen & Nick Lowery
    2026/07/21
    Today we have not one, but two special guests! You're in for a treat.What happens when families in crisis hand their kids over to a loosely regulated $23 billion industry promising to "fix" them? Professor Jon McQueen, a survivor of the Troubled Teen Industry (TTI), pulls back the curtain on wilderness programs, residential boarding schools, and the devastating human cost—450+ deaths and 220,000 kids sent yearly, often starting with a middle-of-the-night "transport."Jon shares his raw journey from Chicago kid to sales leader (realtor.com and more) to full-time ASU sociology professor teaching 1,900 students. He breaks down AI cheating dilemmas in education, why students feel unseen, and his groundbreaking Men & Masculinity class that challenges toxic narratives with multiple masculinities.Later, NFL legend and returning guest Nick Lowery joins for the final stretch—talking his new book Naked and Alone with 80,000 People (now on Audible!), leadership lessons from the Chiefs, factory keynotes, mental health, and his free Companion app helping first responders and beyond.This episode is packed with real talk on resilience, education's evolution, fatherhood, team chemistry, and creating connection in a disconnected world.Topics CoveredTroubled Teen Industry (TTI) survivor story & exposéSales-to-academia career pivot and "hacking" the systemTeaching massive classes and making students feel seenAI cheating crisis, detectors, and mental atrophy in educationMultiple masculinities vs toxic masculinity debatesPublic speaking fears and using sales skills in academiaWorst-to-first leadership and team chemistry (Chiefs stories)Mental health companion app for first responders & veteransFan connection, social capital, and performing under pressureRateMyProfessor feedback and evolving with student needsChapters0:00 Cold Open: The Troubled Teen Industry0:40 Intro Band & Theme Song1:35 Scott & Mike Welcome – First Professor Guest2:25 Jon McQueen's Story – Son of a Marketer to Sales Life3:50 Pivot During COVID – Master's Degree & ASU Opportunity5:55 From Adjunct to Full Faculty – Teaching 443, Then 1,400 Students7:55 The Troubled Teen Industry – $23B Empire, 450 Deaths, Paris Hilton & Stanford Research12:13 Student Connection Story – The 7-Year ASU Senior Who Finally Felt Seen13:51 AI in Education – Cheating Detection, Syllabus Policies & The Prisoner's Dilemma19:28 Students Can't Read Analog Clocks Anymore21:07 Should Business Leaders Enter Academia?24:35 RateMyProfessor, Pre-Framing Classes & The Zocdoc Sales Lesson28:03 Men & Masculinity – Pitching the Class Nobody Takes, Toxic Masculinity & Helping Young Men32:30 Nick Lowery Returns – Trifecta Appearance32:45 Book Update – Naked and Alone with 80,000 People, Audible & P&G Keynote34:21 Chiefs Turnaround, Eric Bieniemy & Locker Room Chemistry37:16 World Cup, Messi, Fan Energy & Arrowhead Stories38:29 Roger Clemens & Locker Room Chemistry38:41 Getting Recognized at the Royals Game40:22 The Roast, Neil Smith & Kansas City Social Capital42:37 Mental Health Companion App – RFK Jr., BlueCloudX, Clinical Research & Veteran Support46:32 Final Thoughts, Gratitude & OutroWatch the full conversation and let us know in the comments: What’s one system or industry that needs more transparency and reform?Full episode also available on your favorite podcast app. Subscribe, like, and share if this hit home.

    2026/07/07
    In this raw and powerful episode of What's Your Story? with Mike Lindstrom & Scott Leese, we sit down with Chris Powell — the fitness transformation expert and former host of ABC’s Extreme Weight Loss. Chris opens up about the darkest chapter of his life: herniating a disc, getting hooked on painkillers, losing everything, and living out of his car.He reveals the powerful epiphany that led him to tattoo “1 through a million” down his side and commit to changing that many lives. Chris also shares the incredible true story of walking into a stranger’s home to help a 630-pound man named David lose 400 pounds — a friendship that went viral on MySpace, landed them on Oprah and 20/20, and ultimately helped Chris land his own national TV show.But the journey wasn’t one-sided. When Chris hit rock bottom, the man he saved was there to save him right back. Chris also breaks down why “hope” is the real missing ingredient in weight loss, how “Power Promises” build unstoppable momentum, his honest take on GLP-1 medications (Ozempic, Wegovy, etc.), and why the body positivity movement can sometimes do more harm than good.If you’ve ever struggled with weight, battled addiction, lost hope, or are searching for sustainable transformation, this conversation will hit hard and give you practical tools you can use today.Topics Covered:Chris Powell’s early TV breakthrough and bold networking storyThe unforgettable story of helping David lose 400 poundsChris’s personal battle with painkiller addiction and rock bottomThe tattoo mission that saved his life (1 through a million)How David saved Chris right backLanding the ABC Extreme Weight Loss show dealDavid’s later struggles and heartbreaking passingThe #1 misconception holding people back in health & fitnessWhy hope beats quick fixes + the “Power Promise” methodTransitioning from network TV to social media successHandling haters and the body positivity debateChris’s new role as Chief Transformation Officer at Thrive LabChapters:00:00 - Podcast Intro & Theme01:46 - Meet Chris Powell02:39 - Chris’s Abbreviated Life Story & Early Struggles03:23 - His First Big Break: Walking Into KTVK News05:30 - The 630-Pound Man Named David Who Changed Everything07:01 - Chris’s Own Dark Chapter: Painkiller Addiction & Living in His Car08:04 - The Epiphany & The “1 Through a Million” Tattoo08:35 - How the Man He Saved Saved Him Back09:50 - Viral on MySpace, Oprah, 20/20 & Japanese Game Show10:40 - “You’re the Host!” — The Shocking ABC Phone Call12:27 - David’s Rollercoaster Life & Heartbreaking Passing13:49 - The Biggest Misconception in Health & Fitness Today16:34 - “Hope” Is the Real Game Changer + Power Promises18:25 - From Traditional TV Star to Social Media Reality20:30 - Multi-Platform Content Strategy That Actually Works24:30 - Handling Haters & The Body Positivity Conversation29:24 - The Full Medical & Psychology Team Behind the Show30:46 - Chris’s New Mission at Thrive Lab31:48 - Final Thoughts & Where to Find ChrisLinks:Instagram: https://instagram.com/realchrispowellTikTok: https://tiktok.com/@realchrispowellYouTube: https://youtube.com/@realchrispowellX: https://x.com/RealChrisPowelFacebook: https://facebook.com/realchrispowellThrive Lab (Chris’s new role as Chief Transformation Officer): https://thrivelab.comIf Chris’s story gave you hope or a new perspective, drop a comment below with your biggest takeaway or the one “Power Promise” you’re making this week.

  • “The Grass Isn’t Greener” – Truitt Robinson on Gen Z Job Struggles, AI & Real Life After College

    “The Grass Isn’t Greener” – Truitt Robinson on Gen Z Job Struggles, AI & Real Life After College
    2026/06/09

    Truitt Robinson joins the show as our youngest guest ever — an ASU Cronkite grad, Phoenix Suns video intern, and video editor who’s lived a very different college experience than most.

    He opens up about moving from a small Alabama town to Ohio, then surviving rough living situations in Phoenix while grinding as a videographer. Truitt shares how ADHD and Asperger’s shaped his early years, the bullying he faced, and the powerful shift that happened when he got serious about fitness, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, and self-improvement.

    He also gives a candid look at the Gen Z job market in 2026 — ghosting, AI disruption, insane competition, and why even a perfect resume often isn’t enough. Truitt talks about the pressure of “the grass is always greener,” why pace of the leader still matters, and his advice for young people trying to earn real respect.
