You probably know Daymond John as one of the original Sharks on Shark Tank, but his entrepreneurial journey started long before he entered the Tank.

Daymond is the founder of FUBU, the iconic fashion brand he helped grow from a small operation in Queens into a global business, and he has since become a bestselling author, investor, branding expert, and mentor to entrepreneurs around the world.

In this episode, Daymond shares stories from his early days building FUBU, the lessons he’s learned from decades in business, his approach to branding and entrepreneurship, and the mindset that has helped him overcome setbacks and continue pushing forward.

Former MLB All-Star catcher John Buck joins Jeremy Barker on 90 Proof Wisdom for one of the most honest conversations we've had on the show. Drafted straight out of high school and an 11-year big league veteran, John's journey through pro baseball took a turn nobody saw coming — and what he learned fighting his way through it is now changing lives far beyond the diamond. He and Jeremy dig into the mental side of performing under pressure, the brutal self-talk that holds people back, why the people we look up to most aren't built differently than us, and how rock bottom might be the best starting point you'll ever get. John also shares an unforgettable story involving Derek Jeter that will change how you think about pressure forever, plus the mission he's on today serving the firefighters, police, EMS, and military members who show up to everyone's worst day. Whether you're an athlete, a first responder, an entrepreneur, or just someone trying to get out of your own head, this episode is packed with tools you can actually use — and stick around for details on a special event coming June 13th that you won't want to miss.
