Reality Check with Craig Price

KK Robbins (@kk_robbins on twitter) discusses with Craig how we lie to ourselves. Responsibility and accountability rear their ugly heads as KK explains to Craig how we lie more to ourselves than to others. This leads Craig to doubt himself ever more. Who knows, he could be lying to himself RIGHT NOW!

Alan Cerny ( @NordlingAICN on twitter) joins Craig to talk Oscars. Covering the big 6 (Supporting Actress/Actor, Best Actress/Actor, Best Director and Best Picture) the duo talk why Andy Serkis deserves an award (but won't get one), who got snubbed, who should win and who will win the 2012 Academy Awards. It's movie lovers talking movies! A great way to start Season 2 of Reality Check.

Holly Duckworth of Leadership Solutions International joins Craig on the season finale to discuss gratitude. They delve into vital issues like Craig's monkey-like handwriting, volunteering one's time, keeping an "Oprah Journal" (yeah...Craig had a hard time with the name too) as well as just figuring out some ways to better express one's gratitude. It's an appropriate way to end 2011 for the podcast!

Janine Iannarelli of Par Avion sets Craig straight on buying and selling corporate aircraft. No, Craig isn't in the market, but after listening to him rant about is lack of faith in the TSA, the rude passengers and overbooked flights, you might want to give him one just to shut him up! Janine explains why you shouldn't look at corporate jets as luxury items when they really do enhance productivity and why the corporate jet tax is just politics.
