Sometimes you just have to look for hope, show up, and do your best, even when it's not enough. In the end, be thankful for all you have, including your struggles.

Yeah, I talk about several things I love, including Bert Kreischer trolling his friend Paul_Baldwin on Instagram calling him the Steak King and making a whole genre about steaks. You got to check out Paul's page and look at the video from the beginning.... there's not much but you'll quickly see what happened. It's awesome. Hit him up, tell him you heard him here on Stuff I Heard and follow him to make his numbers grow. I don' t have much reach with this podcast, but you never know. :) Send me a link when you do. It'll be fun to see what happens. I'm on Instagram as jtatpeek where you can find photos of the cowboy steak I talk about in this episode. Shout out to Byron Covington .

I know this is my podcast, and you have opinions... but this is my podcast. So take this with the understanding this is how I see things, and I invite you to think for yourselves. Have conversations with people who are different than you, people who think different than you.... explore what makes you uncomfortable and ask yourselves if you are bought in to your party or TV lines or if you are capable of thinking for yourselves? I only ask that people begin to look at each other with a degree of love in their hearts instead of hate. If we are not here on this planet to help one another, then what is the point? For the "I'm-a-get-mine" mentality? Love.... that's it.

It is absolutely harder to do anything versus doing nothing. I urge you to do something. Do something hard! Exert yourself and fail at times, and in the end you will be happier for the effort and the finished product. Energy and sacrifice defines each of us in value through my eyes. If you are a giver and a creator I admire you. If all you do is take and use I loathe you. Just saying. Effort matters. Live!!!! Don't just exist.

Yesterday was election day. Did you vote? Many did. I did. Be part of the change and vote, and if you don't get your way, fall in line and try again next time. United we stand!

Walt Disney had a dream, a vision, and with his brother Roy's help, they made it a reality. That dream lives and continues today. If you haven't been to Disney World I highly recommend it. Stay on property. Plan some meals and fast passes. We took a behind the scenes tour called Keys To The Kingdom. Debbie was a great tour guide. Happy Birthday Tristina Peek and Bert Kreischer!

That's right folks, I'm on vacation! Oh the joy... and slow internet.

Oh the joy! The Keto diet is working, I went from a 40 inch waist to a 36 from May to October. :) Yaaa!! No looking back now. Sugar and carbs are the enemy, and I'm treating sugar as poison. (still drinking a little in my tea) Yeah I know, I'm a hypocrite. Check out Second Chance Church podcast with Perry Noble, Joe Rogan Experience podcast, Bertcast podcast with Bert Kreischer, and Keto For Normies podcast. All good stuff. :) Take care, and live your life!!!

Yep, it's that time, vacation is right around the corner. I'm geeking out about it and looking forward to relaxing. I'm super excited about the 3rd season of Daredevil on Netflix. If you haven't seen it, go check it out!

As always, I appreciate every one of you.... all 5 dedicated listeners. Just kidding, I can see there's more, but this is my humble attempt to tell you I am thankful for you tuning in. Have a great week!

Yep, it's true, Luke Cage and Iron Fist has been cancelled on Netflix. I give you my idea of why.
