  • EP 32 -Fantasy Finale, Playoffs and Passion

    Hi and Hello. Welcome to Always Tribbyn'! Kicking off the new year we have the final fantasy football update, no spoilers. It's been a fun season lots of ups but also some downs when it mattered most. So needless to say it twasn't my year.  

    I look ahead to real life playoffs as my AZ Cardinals take on the Rams again for a 3rd time this season. And even hope for a second that the cow team out here in Texas advances for another ass whoopin' in the second round of the playoffs. 

    Finally jumping into the meat and potatoes I talk about the passion fans like myself have for our teams and what that passion could bring if we applied it outside of the game.

  • EP 31 -Resolutions Fade, But Spiderman is Forever

    Hello there and welcome to Always Tribbyn, I'm Mike. This week as the year winds down and social media is flooded with hashtags of new years and new beginnings I consider what new years resolutions mean to me. And I can honestly say they don't mean a thing really. The magic of the holidays while intoxicating and inspiring usually fades as the weeks pass as do the people in the gym. Change doesn't comes from a holiday resolution but from daily dedication, reflection and some self loving. 

    Finally not here for spoilers but if there is not already a petition for more Spidermans in more movies then here we go. 

    Wishing everyone a happy holiday season and see you all next year.

  • EP 30 -Gifts and the Holiday Spirit

    Welcome back to Always Tribbyn! This week with Christmas just around the corner I want to talk about what is really important this time of the year, scooters. 

    Kidding, no for me the best time about the holidays is the present of presence and being there for one another. During my years I have had some bad holidays, times where I had no reasons to celebrate but when you focus on the who and not the what, bad days can turn great. 

    And yes as I was finishing up this episode the Cardinals were dismantled by the Lions like that Chuckie doll my aunt bought my brother..... slaughtered. The trash talk will be real this week and rightfully so. But it is still our year! Go Cards!

  • EP 29 -Fantasy Playoffs and the Art of Juggling..... Priorities

    Hey and hello. Back at it again this week with a new episode! This week I talk the NFL Fantasy Football regular season, with playoffs around the corner it is almost safe to say the comeback season was a success.... so far. After a 1- 3 start followed by an 8 game winning streak this is the year for Arizona teams. Even if this one is currently based in Texas. 

    But then the real focus of the week is focusing on what is most important. Life is hectic and it only gets crazier the more we do. Trying to balance out priorities and meet goals is no easy task but one that is essential to success. For me that is trying to plan out time between work and life and while its been good, the goal is great! But with everything in life its all about putting in the work. 

    Hope you enjoy and give your boy a like and some feedback!

  • EP 28 -Mars and Hover Cars w/ Cody

    Hello and welcome back to Always Tribbyn! This week I had the chance to sit down with one of my favorite up and coming comics here in Texas, Cody Swindell. I have had the privilege working out my material with Cody and a lot of other talented comic at Hyenas Fort Worth as we chase the ultimate dream of getting paid to make people laugh, ideally with us, but at us works too. Gotta pay them bills. 

    This episode we talk about the grind, finding the good in bombing on stage, and even life on mars and future cars. 

    He's a very funny and talented guy you can always catch grinding it out at open mics across the state and also at The Brazos Theater in Waco, TX on December 11th. 

    As always your support for local artist and this podcast is appreciated more than you could know!

  • EP 27 -MMA and Joy W/ Jose
    Hey, I’m Mike and this week I’m glad to sit down with my good friend Jose Castanon. I’ve know Jose since high school where we were both star athletes- yeah I said both….. Aside from sharing athletic talents we both shared the burden of our parents but always strived to be more. And we’re still trying. After we both walked away from the game of football, Jose found himself pursuing a passion to fight and has been climbing the ranks into professional mma. Even though injuries have set him back, Jose is the only thing stoping Jose. Then we get into the struggle of finding and keeping happiness when life knocks you down. One of the most resilient and positive guys I know, Jose continues to inspire those around him and strives to get better day by day.

  • EP 26 -Crypto Take Over and Metamatrix

    Hi and hello there. This week we are back after a long week of open mics and bar comedy, it's nicer than it sounds. Starting off with our fantasy football update, balling, followed by our Cardinals update, also balling... 

    I talk about the crypto take over in the NFL. There has been a recent trend of players choosing coin over over paper, most recently new Rams WR Odell Beckham taking his entire salary in bitcoin. As crypto becomes more and more main stream with millions pouring in I contemplate how far it will go. 

    From money to the building of virtual worlds is the future all digital? Or is it just a trend? Only time can tell. 

    Finally I take a look back at Thanksgivings past and finding a way to be thankful even in the dark.

  • EP 25 -Rodgers v Irving, Live Your Truth

    Hey there, welcome back. This is Always Tribbyn, I'm Mike. This week I talk Rodgers vaccine, or lack of depending on who you talk to.... The selfish and unnecessary omission of truth that fuels mistrust against the choice to say how you really feel has caused a lot off issues over these past two years with COVID. At this point we need more discussion and openness and less deceit. I also talk about the mind blowing rally out here in Dallas this past week... I have no words... We can only hope for the Rock dive from a bald eagle to lay down the peoples elbow on the entire system. Just kidding, mostly. 

    And most importantly there is a special young man named Logan putting together clothing, goods and meals to the homeless. It is his second year and he just turned 7! Amazing work and inspiring to see such a young soul have so much heart. The link will be down below and also on my social media, please if you can, give. Let's show out for such a great cause.

  • EP 24 -From 300 lbs. to Functionally Fit w/ Mario

    This past week I had the pleasure of sitting down with a good friend and fellow functional fitness guy Mario Contreras to discuss his journey from 300 pounds all the way down to 178 and the motivation that keeps him aiming to get even better. Mario's faith and commit to his beliefs and goals is admirable and anyone who knows "Blood In Blood Out" is good in my book.

    Tune in and check out his story, from fights and partying to the verge of death and fighting his way back its not one you want to miss.

  • Comedy, Cops and Karate with Colby Traber

    Hello and welcome back to Always Tribbyn! This week I had the pleasure of sitting down with an up and coming comic from the streets of Fort Worth, Colby Traber. We talk comedy, what motivates us to get on stage and his obsession with Jeff Foxworthy- its borderline healthy. And even swap some stories from our infamous football days and karate experiences. Colby is a really funny comic and worth missing a little sleep so make sure you get out to your local open mics and support the art! 

    Find him on Facebook @COLBYTRABER and slide in his DMs if you need some entertainment or a connect for a good peanut butter sandwich.
