Meet You At The Bottom

Illinois Football is Back! This week, I sat down with Illini Football experts Lee Brown and John Kratz as we dissected each position unit, discussed key strengths and questions for each position and provided our overall expectations for the Illini ahead of this season. In the second half, we were joined by special guest Joe Allegretti as we went through each game on the schedule, provided our thoughts on the players to watch for the opposition, keys for an Illini victory and most importantly, a final score prediction. For all the Illini fans out there, this is a must-listen episode as this is your Illini Football primer to get up to speed before Friday night's matchup. Spoiler alert - one of us has the Illini in the Big Ten Championship.

On a separate and equally exciting note - John Kratz recently founded a company called Museema. Museema is where artists turn their work into unique apparel. Here is the website and I urge all of you to follow / subscribe / sign up http://www.museema.com/. 

Blockchain. Bitcoin. Ethereum. Cryptocurrency. Web 3.0... Join me as I delve into the future with my buddies Nick and Conner. Nick and Conner are experts in this technology and they joined me this week as we discussed the concept of blockchain technology, the practical applications and some of their own personal experiences on the subject. It was a very enlightening and thought-provoking conversation and if anyone has any remote interest in learning more about blockchain, Nick and Conner should be your very first call. Look for both to be back on the pod for multiple episodes on this subject as we only scratched the surface this week. For those curious, Conner was easily taking down a bottle of Rose while Nick was enjoying a crisp, fresh non-alcoholic beer. 

This week, I was joined by my good friend and under-the-radar consumer behavior expert Kelly McCarthy as we discussed the pandemic’s implications on consumer purchasing and eating habits. Kelly kept it classy with some red wine and I was trying to relive the summer days with a fresh Leinenkugel’s Summer Shandy. Hope you enjoy the episode!

I was joined this week by my good friends Parth and Parag as we discussed our reactions to the 1st Presidential "Debate" from Tuesday night. We reviewed our key takeaways, the media coverage of the event and the subsequent implications on the race moving forward. Cocktails enjoyed were Whiteclaws, Nippon Coolers and Bud Lights for Parth, Parag and myself, respectively. Hope you enjoy the episode! 

This is a podcast where we dive deep into top of mind topics with a variety of guests while we enjoying our favorite cocktails. If you enjoy entertaining and educational conversations and you enjoy the occasional drink or two, this show is for you. Join us every other week as we discuss the current issues on our minds in this crazy new world of ours.
