David and The Jimmy go deep on what David believes he's discovered in Europe, the behaviors, tenacity and spirit of the founders of the United States.  Apparently it is alive and well in Europe as it has been for centuries, but the same can't be said for those in the states, it's gotten diluted, relaxed, entitled, and the further west you go, the worse it is.  .

David and The Jimmy, major music buffs get lost in the opening music and homage to Eddie Money and almost forget to talk about the Earthquake David experienced in Croatia generating a strong sense of gratitude.  

David and The Jimmy discuss a number of topics but the main one is out of no where... the World Cup.  Being in Europe, roaming around, David has managed to somehow have chosen World Cup central being in Croatia and it sounds like he's been bitten by the bug.  No big dumb hats, long loud scarves or face paint... yet, but he certainly talks like he knows what's up.  Let's see how off he is in the days to come.  No one is holding their breath! 

Michelle is away on vacay so David invited a special celebrity guest to co-host for a few episodes.  This is where y'all get to meet "the Jimmy".  David and the Jimmy discuss the song and video that David produced in his down time between hammering out chapters for his new book.  Which, for your viewing and listening pleasure is right there:  https://youtu.be/e-vMwEeQk3g  The twosome, citing the sentiment of the song, did not squander the opportunity to remind everyone that this holiday season is not always bright, cheery and warm for everyone.  In Jimmy's debut, he does a great job with the homework.    

Michelle and David recount a recent humbling experience in attempting to navigate the public transit system of a foreign country.  Despite performing what he felt was enough due diligence, it became clear early on that it simply wasn't enough.  Fortunately for him and for the listeners, David has the uncanny ability to laugh at his failures.  Laugh along today.  Oh, and if you are looking to visit Croatia, check out his channel....  https://www.youtube.com/@RoyalCroatianTours

Forever evaluating and upgrading, David has an unusual epiphany after what seemed to be an obvious lead up.  Michelle points out what she is seeing and more reveals are given on David's journey.  Real change is most definitely on tap, grab a mug and join the duo.  

Continuing on his monastery hopping tour, looking for peace, inspiration and healing, he goes for the big dog, Medjugorje in reasonably close by Bosnia.  Of course, if things went to plan, there wouldn't be a podcast.  Grab some popcorn and rosary beads, this is a shit show.  

With a title that has a triple meaning, David shares his "off season" experiences.  Living in Dubrovnik after the tourists have all gone home, effectively shutting down the town, his own personal struggles with a temporary case of intense writer's block and an unexpected reveal that will shock most of his listeners.  Michele shows everyone just how observant she is an how intuition can be an incredible gift.  David shares his latest video:  Winter Festival in Dubrovnik, it's worth a watch - and it's one click away.... https://youtu.be/0OR8ZI26jRs   

Michelle and David discuss the value in self-talking.  They give a number of tips, spoiler alert, the keys are; bravery, belief, becoming available to yourself and honesty.  

Down the rabbit hole they both go with T.S. Eliot.  David spends significant time ruminating over what he considers to be one of the most brilliant quotes of all time, which, not surprisingly, aligns with Michelle and David's message through the Red Kite Movement.  Michelle travels along and divulges that of the 618 episodes, this is her favorite.  Strong words.  Listen today to hear why she sincerely feels this.
