PostMod Pod-Cast
The Post Modern Patriot Podcast focuses on health, wealth, relationships, and the intersection of all three. Our episodes follow two formats. First, Short form episodes that are 20 minutes long and cover a topic or idea that is going to stimulate you and start your day. Second, Long form interviews that are conversational in nature where I bring on people I believe can teach us something we can all benefit from. Strong groups create strong individuals. Let’s Leave a Legacy.
EP 26: Keep Moving Forward, That’s How Winning Is Done!
On Episode 26 of the podcast I pull out a concept Jim DeCicco brought to mind for me in last week’s episode. For the most part I believe many of us have the same opportunities. We receive the same external stimulus from society. The way in which we perceive that stimulus and respond, can make the difference in our own success or failure in life. I have found that at those times in my own life where I am barely holding it together. The moments when I am sure everything is about to burst at the seams are the most important times to keep pushing forward. Whenever I have, it has resulted in the greatest outcome. We all fight our own battles in life. We face our own struggles. For others our personal struggles may seem small. To us they can seem like mountains. We all have the ability to scale said mountain and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done.
Quotes from Today’s Episode
In every battle there comes a time when both sides consider themselves beaten. Then he who continues the attack wins.
Ulysses S. Grant
The Spartans say that any army may win while it still has its legs under it; the real test comes when all strength is fled and the men must produce victory on will alone.

EP 25: Jim DeCicco Spread Positive Energy and Be Nice to People
Jim Decicco is the oldest Brother and CEO of Kitu Life Incorporated the company that brought you Super Coffee, Super Creamer, and Super Espresso. Prior to taking the beverage world by Storm Jim was a member and Co-Captain of the Colgate University football team. His time in the corporate world was a short lived three months after college before he stepped into the world of entrepreneurship. His company topped the 1 million dollar sale mark in 2017, and was recently featured on Shark Tank where they valuated the company at 50 million dollars. Although the company was not able to obtain funding from Shark Tank Jim and his brothers have obtained 18 million dollars in venture capital funding and they have been named as members of the Forbes 2019 30 under 30. On top of running his start up Jim is an avid fitness enthusiast, philanthropist, and podcast guest.
I met Jim when he came and spoke at George Washington University while I was getting my MBA there. I walked up and introduced myself to Jim after the talk he gave because I was so impressed by his energy. It’s not wonder his super coffee product is quickly taking the world by storm. Every bottle contains a little bit of the amazing energy Jim and his Brothers possess. I’ve been fortunate enough to maintain a friendship with Jim since that day and he’s the type of guy you just want to sit down and have a cup of coffee with. I know my listeners will enjoy the message he gets out and this episode is jam-packed with wonderful tidbits of advice.

EP 22: Become a Master Negotiator Today
A few weeks ago on Episode 19 of the podcast we interviewed Dr. Bailey who covered how you can easily negotiate for a million dollars more in your life-time by asking for a little bit more, or to pay a little bit less here and there. This spurred on a lot of people reaching out to me and asking for actionable negotiation skills. In Today’s episode I provide three things you can start doing today to make you a better negotiator. I cover where you can find a master negotiator to listen to in action right in your own neighborhood. Mostly, this episode is a summary of all of the master skills I learned from Dr. Bailey’s course on negotiation. While these skills may not be an exhaustive list of everything you need to know to increase negotiating skills they can definitely get you started on your path to 1 Million more dollars in your lifetime. Let’s Leave a Legacy baby.

EP21: The Mental Transition from Military to Civilian with Nicholas Christopoulos
Nicholas Christopoulos is a Marine no longer serving as active duty. He spent five years serving in the Marine Corps as a Harrier Mechanic and exited the Marine Corps as a Sergeant. He is currently pursuing a Bachelors degree at Fordham University in the Bronx New York, with a focus on political science in the hopes of re-entering the Marine Corps as an Officer. He is the host of Sergeant’s Secret Battle a podcast that starts the conversation that says it is okay to actually talk about feelings, to talk about being vulnerable. He focuses on the difficulty of transitioning out of the military into the civilian world. I’m bringing Nick on the show because I believe he highlights a lot of the things Veteran’s struggle with in his show and I want to share his message with the world.
Check out Nick’s Show where he interviews Veterans and asks about their transition from Warrior back to Citizen. (It may or may not be an interview with me)
We both recommended this book in the show today.

EP 20: Shit Kickers and Silver Slippers.
In today’s episode of the podcast I cover a concept dropped on me recently by a mentor of mine. I spent time framing houses awaiting my orders to active duty in the Marine Corps. We built houses for millionaires and successful people like Bruce Springsteen, Jon Bon Jovi, and Jon Stewart. My boss and mentor was able to spend time with a lot of these people and learn a lot from them. Today’s episode covers once of the concepts he subsequently shared with me by my mentor that I think needs to be heard. Where have you entered the world with a hard work ethic mentality and returned with a pair of silver slippers?

EP 17: The Intersection of Simplicity and Happiness.
Where in your life are you complicating things to the point of making yourself unhappy? For many of us this begins with comparison. We look at the lives of others and examine our own lives through that same mindset. We treat others as though they are running the same race that we are. Additionally, we find ourselves complicating our own lives. We think we need other things to establish our status and give us happiness. When in reality we do not. For me the happiest times in my life were some of the simplest times. I would assume that is the same for you. In today’s episode we examine the intersection of simplicity and happiness and recommend some ways for you to examine this in your own life to ensure you aren’t unnecessarily complicating things. LET’S LEAVE A LEGACY.

EP9: Kurt Garceau and finding Happiness in the Journey.
My Guest on today’s show is none other than the infamous Kurt Garceau. Kurt has been a good friend of mine for a very long time and at one point he was actually my employer while I was waiting for orders to active duty for the Marine Corps. Kurt is one of those ballsy entrepreneurs who dropped out of college and started his own business. He began his company, North Haven Crossfit, as a very small garage gym style location. This gym has now scaled up to a warehouse sized location that you could put a vehicle assembly line in with over 200 members.
What is equally impressive is the fact that while scaling his business up with his cousin Warren, his training regiment allowed him to reach the national pro grid league as a member of the Boston Iron, and Crossfit games in the team division. Before that Kurt made several appearances in the Crossfit regionals as an individual athlete.

EP8: School Is a Waste Of Time.
In this episode I discuss the cons of obtaining a degree from an institution of higher education. Last week’s episode was astonishingly one sided in terms of encouraging others to go to college and or obtain a secondary degree. The sign of a true genius is the ability to understand two opposing viewpoints at the same time. It would wrong for me to only provide one side of the argument to my listeners. So here are all of the reasons you shouldn’t get a Master’s degree specifically. Check out our blog for the books I mention in today’s show, my list of subjects and skills you need to develop if you don’t pursue a master’s, and my list of 50 other ways to generate income.

EP6: Find a Mentor, Be a Mentor
In today’s episode I discuss the world’s need for mentors. We need people to be mentors, and we need to find mentors. One of the common things you find amongst all high achievers is the fact that they had someone looking out for them. Our needs are no different. Whether you are a start-up entrepreneur, the owner of a company like Black Rifle Coffee Company, or any average joe, you can find a mentor and be a mentor for so many people. Iron sharpens Iron, and we don’t become the people we are without the help others give us along the way. Please check out the episode and enjoy, subscribe and please share with friends.

Also, In case you wanted to be able to check out the quote I read in today’s episode from Gates of Fire, here you go:
“A king does not abide within his tent while his men bleed and die upon the field. A king does not dine while his men go hungry, nor sleep when they stand at watch upon the wall. A king does not command his men’s loyalty through fear nor purchase it with gold; he earns their love by the sweat of his own back and the pains he endures for their sake. That which comprises the harshest burden, a king lifts first and sets down last. A king does not require service of those he leads but provides it to them…A king does not expend his substance to enslave men, but by his conduct and example makes them free.”
Episode 5: Rodney Coursey On Mentorship and Finding Your Purpose.
In Today’s episode Rodney and I discuss important mentors in our lives and the things they did to help us become the men we are today. Rodney talks about the limiting beliefs he once held about himself and how he has developed the ability to believe in himself. Rodney discusses race, and the issues he faces with promoting hip hop talent through his company Garden State Hip Hop. We cover a lot on this episode that you won’t want to miss.

Episode 3: Isaac Wyant on Limiting Social Media and Reading Instead of Doing
On Today’s Show I interview Isaac J. Wyant a close personal friend and above all impressive individual.
Check out Isaac’s Bio:
Isaac Wyant attended California State University- Sacramento and received a degree in Criminal Justice and Corrections. While awaiting assignment to active duty Isaac taught computer science and history in California for the Tracy Unified School District. Isaac served in the United States Marine Corps where he attended and graduated from The Basic School and Infantry Officer Course at Marine Corps Base Quantico. He served as a platoon commander in Iraq and in his final tour was assigned to the coveted position of 81 mm Mortar platoon commander, an assignment generally reserved for the best Lieutenant in each Battalion. Isaac conducted operations as a platoon commander on Three separate continents. Although Isaac no longer serves in the military he continues to sharpen his skills as a martial artist practicing Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. He is an advocate for the limited use of technology and increasing the virtue in his fellow man. His writing is extremely compelling and featured on Thymos.com (which we will link to in show notes), a website that discusses, challenges, and compels the current virtues of man. I am not only fortunate to have Isaac on the show but I am fortunate to consider him a close friend.
Check out my two favorite articles on Isaac’s website:
Quit Doing Things That Will Eventually Suffocate You
Less Self Help More Self Start
This is the book Isaac recommended in our episode: Dopesick by Beth Macy
This is the book Isaac mentioned he is most excited about reading: The Right Side of History by Ben Shapiro
Isaac and I also get a little “wild and crazy” and discuss this interesting concept known as belief in God. I mention an article on the blog about my favorite bible passages which can be found here.
