Jake is back with another episode of The JBSE, recorded from a pleasant sunny day in the garden! The chat starts with thoughts on the journey of the podcast, and how and why it's taken a while to find the voice of the pod. That transitions into thoughts on why the Detroit Lions Hard Knocks series is an awesome workout backdrop, and why habit-building feels so important for moving our lives in the direction we want, whether you're an athlete, podcaster, artist, parent, whatever! Finally, there's time to ponder on two Hurling matches this weekend, as underdogs Dunloy take on power-house Ballyhale in the Senior Hurling Club All-Ireland Final, and an evolving Tipperary team test themselves in the final of the Munster pre-season competition against burgeoning dynasty Limerick.
