  • 59. Attraction, Attracted, Attractive, Law of Attraction? F**k You + Thank You Odds

    Send us Fan Mail

    Welcome to Episode 59 of the Damn Dude Podcast!!

    Why are we attracted to the things and people that we are attracted to?
    Why do we like the people we like?
    Why do we like the cars and clothes that we like?
    Is it a cultivation of previous things that we've been exposed to previously that  we found appealing?
    Is it from outside influence?
    Is it completely an original idea of our own?
    Are we just settling for what we can get?
    Converting the understandings of attraction to "the law of attraction".
    Attraction is attraction, are there different ways to manipulate or use this, like actually?!?
    Having the final picture in mind, and really going for it.
    Actually "attracting" what we desire.

  • 52. 15 years since Pablo's Death, Respectfully, Pablo had to pass. His gift was bigger than him.

    Send us Fan Mail

    Dedicated to the Tafolla Family and all related loved ones.

    Welcome to Episode 52 of the Damn Dude Podcast!

    It was Puves day, which means it's been 15 years since his passing!
    Pablo was truly a one of a kind person, he was a modern day warrior who fought for what was good, just, and right.
    He was the most Gangster, and down MF'er you could possibly meet, he played by the rules and respected the codes,  AND, at the same time, was equally as kind, selfless, loving, and giving.
    He was himself to the fullest and ALWAYS stood for what's right with whoever, & wherever, no matter what!
    He was ahead of his time, being a local super hero, and a man of the people, he had talents beyond what we were ready for back then!
    From making beats, writing raps, playing video games, riding motorcycles, poetry, Pablos poetry was Beautiful.
    Some times he would show up and just start mowing strangers lawn out of no where, and when they come out asking what's going on, he'd respond: Just your local friendly neighborhood Mexican, doing good for the community! hahahahahahahahhaha
    Pablos passing, guided me to my purpose in life.
    Giving back, protecting, and playing like a kid was there answer!!!! He had it dialed in!!
    Like his uncle had said:
    "To really get to really know Pablo, was to see him interact with kids"
    To see the duality that existed inside of the hardest dude, so innocent and gently playing toys with kids, was mind blowing.
    Juan Pablo "Puves", "Spider", "Spidy", " Lil Dreamer", Tafolla
    I Love you always and am forever grateful for your guidance, sacrifices, brotherhood, and unconditional love.

  • 51. Exposing the Swim Industry, Loyalty vs Serving our Purpose.

    Send us Fan Mail

    Episode 51 of the Damn Dude Podcast is officially live!!!
    -Exposing the swim business.
    -What should you ask for when shopping for swim lessons for your child or yourself?
    -Ever start a new business, or new idea, or just try to do better for yourself and your life, and you hear old friends are actually, literally, being the definition of a hater?
    Where does it come from in people to hate on the next person and their growth and progress?
    Many of us are still trying to figure out this whole balance of when and why to consciously put distance between ourself and others.
    Maintaining friendships, because they’re old….is that wise? Is it wise to hold on to relationships that no longer serve us? Is it wise to let go of old relationships to build new ones?

    From different angles this can be answered differently, so really it depends on the context we’re coming from!

    What’s your context of friendship and loyalty? Where do you draw the line?
