Hey friends, it’s Wisdom here! In today’s episode, I sat down with Mr. Whiskey—US Navy vet, comedian, and host of Couple of Nukes—to dive into his journey from audio-only rookie to a full-on video podcaster. We talked about launching without a plan, learning by doing, and why it’s so important to let your curiosity lead the way (instead of letting research become procrastination!). Mr. Whiskey opened up about building habits, hustling through those first tough years, and the meaningful impact his show has had on people facing addiction or mental health struggles. We also swapped stories about awkward guests, mastering conversations with strangers, and the true value of just showing up—especially when no one is watching (or listening). I hope this episode reminds you to start messy, stay consistent, and always measure success by the lives you touch. Thanks for tuning in!
