Loopholes on Life

This pod is like the first bite into crisp apple.

Stan, Stitch, and yet another Stitch brother, Danny Boy, unwittingly discover the complexities surrounding the art of enjoying life’s simple things!

NO VACANCY!! The romance of a long weekend’s escape occupies the only room you had left in the anticipation apartment.

As the days come marching in, your heart beat seems to synchronize with the rhythms of a Bourbon Street celebration.  You are prepared to depart for a family wedding in New Orleans and to arrive in the middle of a good time. 

But first, you must fit a week of work into two days… and, oh yeah, you are bringing your 8 and 6 year old children with you… and, oh yeah, those kids are carrying cartoon-themed luggage as well as strep-throat…

Stress.  

We associate it to the bad times, but too often let it snake its way into the special ones.

So, today we ask… How do we minimize stress to maximize the moments that matter most?!

'GOTTA HEAR ITS'! "...then, after everyone is celebrating you for great speeches, smiles, high-fives, and hugs… you get strep-throat yourself, and have to carry around two 50lbs bags and a couple of kids all the way from Bourbon Street to Ohio."

Bonus Content: ** disclaimer: by reading this you subscribe to the fact you should have already hit play! ** > Reflect on the singular scenario Buddha totally stress beads out > Let the mysteries of constipation flow through you > Learn how listening to the Joe Rogan podcast will scientifically cure your anxiety! http://podcasts.joerogan.net/

As the elation of free candy and sugar-highs fade, a bitter aftertaste of social confusion and fear ensues... Is there another holiday which conjures up a stronger emotional dichotomy than Halloween?!

Conjure up the kid in you and unpack these memories with us, as Stitch's son Jax (also famously known as "Steve") joins his favorite podcast for the first time!

Learn first hand from an eight year old:

• How a single Halloween decoration ruined a young boy's favorite holiday!
• How 2 horrific tales from different families BOTH involve a "Tree Guy"!
• How an epic deal involving podcasts and cucumbers was made!

'GOTTA HEAR ITS'!

"I like talking... but not too much. Dad always frustrates me!" "Focus on your finger and making the world a better place."

Describe it for yourself!!

Some are born, some are forged - all are chosen.

It is time to unpack the characteristics of leadership, and question the integrity of the star naming system!

'GOTTA HEAR ITS'!

“If constellations were amusement park rides, the Big Dipper would be Disney’s Tea Cups!”

“The qualities that make a born leader are also the ones they pay close attention to as a learned one. ” “Great leadership is not a destination, it’s a decision to keep on becoming a better one for the rest of your life.”

You entrust them with your most treasured memories, Seek out their guidance when you're feeling lost, No matter how obscure the question; they'll provide answers. They know your interests, and share common ones.

Kinda wild how we all became best friends with our cell phones, right?!?

Maybe you called it...? Either way, connect with Stitch and Stan as they unravel the ONE device that we keep so close our other cells get jealous!!

'GOTTA HEAR ITS'!

(1) "What is one fun use of the mobile device? I mean fun too, not like emergency contact information." [2] "The Weather app is fun! I like to know what's happening!" (1) "Not my definition of fun, but okay..."

"One time a phone is always safe to use -- and more efficient too...?When you're taking a dump! !"

Have you ever had a moment, so beautifully malleable, that today's outcomes seem to be yours to cast in the vastness of tomorrow's best potential possibilities?!

Where society's rigor, for a moment, can be molded as seamlessly as a newborn can of Play-Doh?

Where you can fearlessly face and relentlessly forge the future, with the requisite conviction of Plato?

Where you can shape it, you can bend it, but you will never fold.

For you can manipulate the clay-of-today with the certainty that tomorrow will bring nothing less than a hardened state of your original vision... Memorializing your craft, as if your acts were an everlasting statue gifted to the past... Forever capturing the greatness of the goodness in that single, beautifully malleable, moment.

Have you had that moment? If so, give us a heads up next time!!! Because today Stan and Stitch simply attempted to play with some Play-Doh, which was then overtaken by Plato, who seemingly swayed Michelangelo to shape the possibilities into something far greater than either of us could have perceived!

Friends, join our #RiseBeforeFall campaign... get something outta nothing and so, so much more!!

'GOTTA HEAR ITS'!

"Sure, I’d want to live forever if I could keep my youth and health”… ..."I don’t know man, vampires never seem too happy!" “He was taking the ‘do as I say, not as I do’ approach to hot yoga? What a bastard!” “A smile is a million dollars in a world of nothingness”

The Chivalrous Gentleman’s Oath:

For every chair too close,  four hands to lift it. For every door left unopened,  an “after you” to fix it. For every pathway too puddled,  two jackets to bridge it. And if laughs are a present, may these gentlemen gift it!

Join Stan and Stitch as they ‘tip their brow’ to some of modern day’s most chivalrous questions: 

“Is Chivalry dead? Where should it be resuscitated?” “Does Chivalry have a gender?” “What places will chivalry never exist?”

^^ plan accordingly friends! It’s a trip… with standing room only.  

What’s a gentleman to do?!

'GOTTA HEAR ITS'!

" Nobody and I mean nobody, this day of age, is walking up to a puddle on the street and laying down their jacket for the lady to walk through."

"Wait a second! If we're getting a couples massage and we're not podcasting, then what are we recording Stan?!"

Have you doubted Luck, questioned Karma, or ended up Naked on the streets of New York? 

If you answered “yes” or “no” to any of the above, then you’ll be glad your friends Stan and Stitch were here with you today!!

Together we explore the art of DUMPSTER DIVING and the humility of super-star comparisons…

Together we face a little about lotto, and a lot about luck!

Owls vs. Ravens? Richard Dreyfuss vs. Justin Timberlake?

The answers you know will help us grow!

You’re welcome in advance! 

That deep cleansing breath you need, but just cannot seem to grasp.  That malevolent slave master lynching your limbic system and paralyzing every muscle in your body, the very moment you need to make a move. The sadistic Oz behind the curtain of our every day struggles.
