The Loud Part

This episode comes to you from the 2026 Internet where every.single.thing we do or say is a political statement, and BOY is that making some people on Threads SUPER mad.

Born from my desire to bring everything back to Mormons and trash-talk Mr. Beast, I posted this thread on Threads asking for things that someone says or does that clues you in INSTANTLY on how they stand politically…and the answers were GOOOODD.

MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

My thread

Melania Trump coming to my town

Mr. Beast partnering with the Mormon Church

Mr. Beast partnering with Tony Robbins

Derral Eves + Mr. Beast + Shawnduras partnership (Derral Eves on Mormon committee, Derral’s Wikipedia)

There’s nothing I love more than being able to blame extreme religion for the world’s problems, so here’s an entire episode about it 😂

These bonus episodes (for paid members only) are a bit unhinged, at least once a month, mostly opinion-based, and a place where we can get into the good stuff.

Enjoy!

Welcome to the first edition of THE LOUD PART™, a new weekly podcast that you can watch on YouTube, listen to here, or listen to on any podcast player!

In this episode:

The only real way to start this podcast, where I plan to go deep on cultural topics that actually matter, is to start in my backyard with the industry that I live in.

Let me actually slip a little ad in here too, while you’re reading!

FreshBooks was my FIRST sponsor on my FIRST podcast back in 2015, so to have them as a sponsor of the FIRST episode of my NEW podcast is WILD. When it comes to running an authentic, ethical business, I think one of the best things you can do is to do a service for people; find a skill you have that people are willing to pay for and send an invoice - easy peasy.

With FreshBooks Lite, it’s even easier to invoice, manage clients, organize your business finances and more because WITH THIS LINK, you can get FreshBooks Lite for $1/month for the next 12 months 😳. I dunno, seems like a no-brainer for solopreneurs to me.

We’re going to take a look at where the online course world started, how it’s MLM-adjacent, and why the skeptics are big mad about the industry and the industry is big mad about the skeptics calling them out.

New episodes every week!

We veer into the world of why it’s ok to call this industry out now as someone who is technically a part of it, but how it would have been career suicide 10 years ago.

Honestly, I talked for over an hour and a half and still didn’t really drill home the point that the problem with these courses is that they’re a dream wrapped in Hormozi-flavored bacon, and when you sell a dream instead of a tactic, it leans scammy in nature.
