Joey Odom looked down at his phone and missed his five-year-old's first soccer goal, and the moment his son turned to the sideline to find his face. That miss reframed everything, and it opens this conversation about technology, attention, and the relationships that actually matter. Joey, who co-founded a company built entirely around changing our relationship with technology, makes a case that's more hopeful than the usual doom: our least valuable relationship, the one with our phones, has t...

Plenty of people have sight and no vision. Joey Odom and Chris Hart spend this episode on the difference, and on the fact that vision isn't reserved for the naturally visionary. It's something you can go get. They start with blind Bartimaeus on the roadside in Mark 10. When he starts calling out for Jesus, the crowd tells him to be quiet, and he gets louder. Chris makes the case that this is where vision actually begins: refusing to let other people's voices (or your own pride, or your fear ...

When David Pollack broke his neck on an NFL field, the career he'd chased since he was four years old ended in a single moment. What he found in the stillness became the message he carries now: every day counts, and how you respond is the only part you actually control. Joey Odom and Chris Hart sit down with David, a College Football Hall of Famer, longtime ESPN College GameDay analyst, and author of Every Day Counts, for a conversation about effort, faith, and family. He breaks down his 50/...

Years ago Chris Hart asked Joey Odom a four-word question that Joey has asked himself hundreds of times since: what's in your hand? This episode is built around it, and around the principle that quietly changes everything once it lands. Increase always follows stewardship. The word goes back to the steward of a medieval estate, someone trusted with everything and owner of nothing, measured by a single question: did you advance the interests of the one you serve? Joey and Chris make the case t...

A plane built to fly 600 miles an hour gets stopped cold by one small chock behind the tire. Chris Hart watched it happen on a runway and couldn't shake the question: what's the wedge in my own life? Joey Odom and Chris spend this episode on alignment, and why it's almost always the thing already inside us, not the circumstance around us, that keeps us grounded. They walk through a simple chain: thoughts lead to words, words to actions, actions to habits, and habits to results. So if you don'...

You don't have grit or lack it. You do grit. Joey Odom and Chris Hart open this episode by flipping the whole question: grit isn't a trait you're born with, it's a muscle you choose to use, and it's available to every single one of us. They start with the unsexy truth. We romanticize grit as the moment you win a fight, but it actually shows up in the boring, tedious, non-romantic places: the apology you owe, the lawn you mow when you'd rather watch the game, the marriage you stay in when you ...

Most of us admire other people's discipline and never build our own. Joey Odom and Chris Hart spend this episode on the fix: a daily spiritual rhythm simple enough that you'll actually keep it. Joey grew up in church and somehow never read the Bible all the way through until he was about 40, when a friend's offhand comment finally gave him permission to start. Chris built a 5 a.m. rhythm six years ago and learned the hard way that discipline begets discipline. Between them they walk through ...

Most of us are chasing leadership when the thing we're actually missing is authority. Joey Odom and Chris Hart spend this episode on the difference, and why it changes how you walk into every room. Chris starts simple. Authority is not a title, a volume level, or being the loudest person in the building. It is something you carry, and it traces all the way back to Genesis, where the first assignment God ever handed us was to take ground. Then the mechanic that holds the whole thing together: ...

In college, Joey and Chris made a bet about who'd be the fattest at 40. They both showed up to that birthday in better shape than they started. This week, two average athletes (not trainers, not experts, just two guys who've stayed in it) talk about what's actually worked for them across two very different body types — and what hasn't. This is the fitness conversation most men need but rarely get. Not a program. Not a protocol. Just an honest look at why so many guys quietly resign to being ...

The first sin in human history was followed immediately by an excuse. Adam pointed at Eve. Eve pointed at the serpent. Nobody pointed at themselves. Joey Odom and Chris Hart open episode three with that observation and spend the next forty minutes unpacking why excuses are the lid on almost every life, and what it actually takes to kill them. This one gets personal fast. Chris lays out the case that an excuse always starts as a lie, and if you let it linger long enough, it becomes your trut...
