In this episode we sit down with Brett Pike, founder of Classical Learner and creator of the popular Homeschools Connected curriculum. Brett left a stable corporate job after writing a successful series of children’s books (the Cubs to Bears series) to bet on himself and build a homeschool company that actually prepares kids for real life.

Classical Learner specializes in teaching practical skills that help children level up: entrepreneurship, financial literacy, critical thinking, the scientific method, and much more, all from a young age.

We dive into why traditional education is falling short, how parents can raise independent thinkers and future entrepreneurs, the power of taking a leap of faith on your dreams, and how Brett leveraged social media to grow his brand and impact hundreds of thousands of families.

If you are a homeschooling parent, entrepreneur, or someone who wants to give kids a true education worthy of freedom, this conversation is packed with inspiration and actionable ideas.

Today we’re talking with Paul Henning: husband, father, author, podcaster, business owner, and a true entrepreneurial success story. When he got laid off from his job, he didn’t let fear take over. Instead, he saw it as the perfect chance to start his own business. With just a chainsaw and a trailer, he began offering tree and brush services, and soon he was making more in four hours than he used to earn in a full week at his old job. Things have only gotten better since then. Join us for this motivating conversation about seizing opportunity, building a business from scratch, and creating the life you want.

Welcome to the premiere episode of I Fired Myself, the podcast dedicated to documenting real entrepreneurs' journeys from the soul-crushing 9-to-5 grind into the freedom and fulfillment of building their own businesses.

In this inaugural episode, I discuss the spark that inspired the show, I open up about my personal transition from employee to entrepreneur, and dive into the crucial mindset shifts that make leaving corporate life possible (and sustainable).

Whether you're dreaming of quitting your job, already plotting your escape, or simply curious about what it really takes to become your own boss, this episode sets the foundation. 

Expect raw stories, practical insights, and a heavy focus on the entrepreneurial mindset that separates those who stay stuck from those who thrive.

Subscribe now and join a growing community of people breaking free, building boldly, and firing themselves forward.

Yep, you heard it right. Not clickbait. Rebunked is going to evolve into something even better. We are all going to level up together.

In this urgent BOTSTOPPERS episode, we confront a terrifying future where autonomous slaughterbots enforce control with zero human oversight, while today’s AI agents are already forming their own religions and social networks like Moltbook’s Crustafarian cults and emergent digital societies. Scott then drops a fiery tangent: the robots are coming for most jobs, and we can’t wait around. Now is the time to build irreplaceable skills, hands-on trades, creative thinking, and community resilience to survive and thrive in an AI-dominated world.
