Clipped from #95. There's a lot of substance in this story. Asking someone to spend the rest of their life with you is probably one of the hardest questions you'll ever ask if you're lucky enough to meet someone worthy. But listening to your heart, that gut feeling we all get will help take some of the pressure off your shoulders. Jim talks about how his first plan didn't workout. Most guys would then start to freak out or get anxious. Instead Jim just went with the flow of the universe that day. Things kept falling into place and he rolled with it. To me this is story is more evidence that the universe can communicate with us. That gut feeling we all get is the universe telling us something. Take the risk. Take that leap of faith and just roll with it.

Wow episode 100 already! Its crazy to see how far this podcast has come since I started it almost a year ago. Not just production wise but content as well. Even though the following we have is small I still need to thank each and everyone of you for listening and supporting us. FYI there was a lot of booze flowing during this episode so things get heated and lets just say some of us can't be mature when it comes to communicating and letting other people talk. You all know who I'm talking about already haha. Anyway the first 20-30 minutes of this episode is just us catching up and doing a little yearly review. After the bullshit is done we get on to the meaty stuff. Does God exist? Who created the universe? Can something come from nothing? Evolution? Adaptation? And more questions that no one in the world can answer try to get solved cause after all this #100. Thank you all again one more time for the support, this is only the beginning and I have even more in store for you guys in the years to come! Remember every episode is streamed live. I didn't choose the Doug Life; the Doug Life chose me.

Clipped from #95. This clip is short and sweet like a cupcake. We create the reality around us. Sometimes we have unrealistic expectations of our day or our relationships. Jill said it beautifully here "When the thought crossed my mind I wasn't going to let is spoil my day because I'm here with the man I love."

Clipped from #95. Growing up in America its "tradition" that you kick your kid out of the house at 18 and throw them into the real world. After being able to talk to Jim about this topic we were able to look at the pros and cons of doing this. Forcing your kid out of the house at 18 forces them to adapt and hold themselves accountable. Is there a correlation between this and their being so many white CEO's and entrepreneurs? This is a really interesting topic that I plan on blowing up more in future podcasts.

Clipped from #95. I feel like my generation sucks at dating. Jim tells me how he asked for permission to marry Jill like a true gentlemen and when I thought about it, it seems like a dying tradition. I already know a handful of people who did not ask for the fathers permission. Some people got married without even telling their families. Now love is subjective and everyone writes their own story, that's the beautiful thing about it. And after hearing Jims story I learned that if it scares you and excites you, you should probably do it.

Wade Donze gets his awaited return back on the pod and this is episode was very theraputic for me. I tell him about my most recent break up and how easy it was for me to bounce back from this one. Self care is extremely important. I was happy with everything else that was going on in my life when my girl left me. This made it easy for me to bounce back and re-enter the jungle. We go more in depth on the pod so I don't want to spoil too much for yeah. During the second half of this episode we talk about the two recent shows we worked at The Armory in Minneapolis, Minneosta. Armin Van Buuren and Excision. Lost Lands 2020 and future EDM shows coming to Minnesota.

Clipped from #95. The older I get the more I embrace death. I'm not as afraid of it like I was as a kid. I embrace it. Death hold us to high standards because it gives us a time limit. The amount of time is unknown and different for every person. Which gave me a sense of urgency, compassion and empathy I didn't have before.
