In this punchy and honest episode, Jay and Dan tackle the creeping issue of how social media might be making you mentally and emotionally weak—even if you're hitting PBs in the gym. They explore how overconsumption of social media leads to anxiety, comparison, procrastination, and false narratives about success and happiness.

Jay shares personal reflections on life without alcohol, late-night scrolling habits, and why "being a creator, not a consumer" is a mantra to live by.

Dan dives into the psychological hooks used by negative marketing, the art of "wasting time well," and how he's learned to time-block his scrolls for sanity and productivity.

Together, they call out the curated nature of online content, the dangers of constant distraction, and offer practical tactics to reclaim your attention and happiness.

Ever feel like you're supposed to have it all figured out by 40? Are you too old to start again? Or that you should be further ahead?

Jay and Dan sit down this week to tackle the myth of “being done” as you hit milestone ages—and why your next chapter might just be the best one yet.

From Facebook memories and career pivots to back pain and mindset breakthroughs, this episode dives into the raw truths of ageing, reinvention, and what it really takes to build a life you love (even if that means eating metaphorical onions and skipping the painkillers).

Expect:

• A brutally honest reflection on getting older, evolving, and starting over
• Stories from building gyms, writing books, and chasing dreams that didn’t quite go to plan
• The real definition of manifestation (and why Dan might still want the Matrix blue pill)
• A spicy take on why consistency trumps motivation (especially when no one gives a sh*t)
• How pain—physical or emotional—isn’t your enemy, but your wake-up call

Whether you're 25 or 55, this episode is a reminder that the game isn't over—it’s just entering a new phase.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

You’re not your past self. You can rewrite the narrative, at any age.

Most people avoid the pain, but pain is often the map. Jay shares how he's managing back pain without medication—and the deeper lesson inside that.

The 10-Year Illusion: A decade can fly by. Make sure the next one doesn’t pass on autopilot.

Stop waiting for validation. You don’t need everyone to like you—you need to start liking yourself.

In this punchy and perspective-shifting episode, Jay and Dan go deep on a topic most entrepreneurs don’t take seriously enough: building your business with the end in mind. Whether you're scaling a new venture or already knee-deep in the hustle, this episode will make you pause and ask the big questions:

• Is your business serving your life—or stealing it?

• What happens if you step away?

• Can your business run without you?

The lads share personal stories, savage truths, and plenty of laughs (including naked fire alarm evacuations, Highland cow walks, and uni nights powered by VKs). But at the heart of it is a message you can’t afford to ignore—success without sustainability is a ticking time bomb.
