The Inner-G

Today we had the honor of hosting a good friend of the pod, Erik Golfo. We touched on life events that made him into the man he is now and how he continues to grow and strive to be the best version of himself. We kicked things off with an update on his progress in jiu jitsu and tries to convince Brian to join in on a session. As a part time artist, Erik seems to have a clear picture as to where he would like to be in the near future. Ok, no more puns. With Brian usually the one in charge of asking the tough questions, Erik turned things around by putting him on the hot seat, did he prevail? Listen to find out. 

And we back and we back! After a 2 week hiatus, we welcomed the very talented Afrodisiac. He stopped by to talk about his new album which is about to be released, we discussed the importance of finding yourslef through your art and how music wasn't always his dream. You're gonna have to check it out to understand.

Beating the odds and persevering was the key focus in this weeks podcast. Michael Ragsac or Big Mike as we like to call him was set up for failure from the very beginning, we discussed how he wasn't the brightest nor the best behaved student which caused teachers to not believe in him going forward. Big Mike didn't give up and used his past experiences to persevere through the hardships and become the man that he is today. Who is MIchael? He serves in the US Army and is a Cadre for Youth Challenge Programs. An extraordinary guy giving back to the community by helping "at risk" youth become the best versions of themselves. We were honored to have Big Mike on our show, definitely worth the listen!

This weeks episode was a good one. We were fortunate to have Adrian Gutierrez, an up and coming professional Boxer from San Diego, California. No stranger to his own ring, Adrian decided to jump into the Inner-G ring for a change. We talked about the benefits of believing in yourself, self criticism & instant gratification through social media and the way our expanding society influences our day to day life. Adrian also explains how he's been beaten down and that taking L's is a good thing as long as you learn from your mistakes. This episode was filled with nuggets of truth and real life experiences. Who would have guessed Adrian had a great sense of humor... you definitely don't want to miss out on this one!

In this weeks episode, we invited one of our favorite local barbers, Eric Vega. Eric & Brian talk about how they met in 6th grade camp to becoming great friends afterwards throughout their teen years. He talks about how the passing of his father made him and his mom stronger and how they have been able to overcome the adversities to become the better versions of themselves. Eric has a passion for cutting hair and hopes he can use his Inner-G and skill to do more for his community as well as help his family in the long run.
