The Mic Drop

Ep21 - Resolutions, Space Travel and Why no one knows what they're doing


Listen Later

Ben and Ed kick off the New Year with trademark Mic Drop banter, sharing reflections on Christmas, culture, and the strange language of New Year’s resolutions.


They explore why resolutions so often fail, the psychology behind goal-setting, and why discipline, accountability, and systems matter more than motivation. The conversation weaves through health and fitness, business and franchising realities, learning from people who’ve gone before you, and accepting that nobody really has it all figured out.


There’s also a detour into space exploration, big thinking, and the music that fuels focus and personal growth, before closing with a Mic Drop moment that cuts through the noise and encourages listeners to stop overthinking and just start.


New year energy, minus the clichés. 🎙️
