Go Self-Help Yourself!

A broken wrist couldn’t stop this guy from pretending he could play piano; what’s your excuse, bro?

No matter how many times we save Pelé’s life, he’s always a little nervous we might leave him behind with a stranger. If we had done that, he’d be in good company with this character.

Here’s a little episode about “Self-help”. I read an article (with the author’s permission of course) by Kyle Thiermann about the book, “Atomic Habits”. Amazingly, it isn’t about microscopic nuns, but rather about getting your shit together, one minuscule step at a time. I also read you a letter from our pal in Alaska, Nate Atwood. Nate is in deep prep-mode for the Alaskan winter, all while battling the effects of 30 years of undiagnosed Lyme’s disease. Come for the stories, stay for the music, and learn how to get any horrible jingle out of your head with a simple trick I’ve been using for decades! Share and enjoy!

Kyle Thiermann is a professional big wave surfer, host of a popular podcast, and 2/3 of the brains behind The Motherfucker Awards. I got a chance to eat some breakfast with Kyle in Santa Cruz, and he was gracious enough to agree to be on our show. We talked about growing up on a surf board, finding purpose and passion by asking questions in a roundabout way, hosting an award show, the genius of comedians, and much more. I’m grateful, as always, to Dr. Uncle Christopher Ryan for putting this one together. Share and enjoy!
