  • 75 Hard Round 2: The Audit
    Nov 3 2022

    What's up everybody and Welcome back to The Beard and The Bun Podcast! 

    The Beard here and today's episode is a mix of a 75 Hard update, as well as an introduction to a new concept I've been thinking of called, The Audit.

    Now, if you have been following my 75 Hard/Live Hard journey on my personal social (linked below), you are aware that The Bun and I started our second round of the program back in June, 2022. As you'll hear, I have personally failed 3 times since then and these failures have inspired the creation of the Audit. 

    Simply put, The Audit is something that I am going to start doing at the end of episodes where I review what went wrong, what went right and where I can improve at in the future. You will see a live example of this concept throughout this episode, as I break down why I failed, what I learned and how I adjusted my gameplan heading forward.

    Currently I am going strong on day 49/75, my final day is November 30th and as for The Bun, she starts Phase 1 on the 13th of this month!

    In closing, I again want to express gratitude toward not only the fans of this podcast, but also to everyone that has supported & doubted me on this journey. I strive to be the example by which people can measure possibility and I will live the rest of my life this way.

    As always, if you found value within this episode or if it made you laugh, please share this episode with your family, friends, coworkers or anyone that you think may be interested in 75 Hard!

    For those of you that want to learn more about 75 Hard, check the resources below and make sure to follow us on our socials for more content!

    Oh and never forget to Stay Weird, Have Fun and always Embrace your Different!

  • The Passing of a Loved One
    Nov 2 2022

    Hello Everyone and Welcome back to The Beard and The Bun Podcast: Writer's Wednesday Edition.

    This week's piece is titled, "The Passing of a Loved One" by The Beard himself in 2013.

    Summary: This is my recollection of the events that transpired leading up to when my grandmother Jackie passed away.

    Jackie, also known as "Nanny," was the glue that held my dad's side of the family together. Her hospitality and level of caring for all of those around her was truly inspiring and has played a huge role in everything I do today. Now, You may be wondering why I felt the need to share this paper with you, as it may be uncomfortable for some to hear.

    Simply put, I wanted to share this with all of you to show the impact that Nanny had on my life, as well to encourage everyone to carry out any unfulfilled promises they may have made in their lives.

    As Always, if you found value within this episode, please share it with your family friends, and coworkers!

    ATTENTION WRITERS/POETS: If you or anyone you know have papers, stories or anything you deem worth sharing with the world, please submit them to our website/email linked below and we will glady share them on our show!

    Oh and never forget to Stay Wierd, Have Fun, and Embrace your Different!

  • Delete The Thread
    Oct 26 2022

    What's up everybody and welcome back to The Beard and The Bun Podcast: Bonding with The Beard edition. In this episode, The Beard discusses the importance of deleting that dreaded text thread that you know you've held onto for way too long. 

    This episode also encapsulates the concept of Dichotomy, which in short finding a balance betweent two contrasting ideas/things/etc. even if neither is particularly wrong. For example, this episode is a direct dichotomy of the Don't Delete Your Past, Archive it episode. 

    In conclusion, if you found any value within this episode, please share it with your family, friends, and coworkers! 

    As Always, Stay Weird, Have Fun and Embrace your Different everyone!

  • Hear Me Out: Guardian Angels
    Oct 20 2022

    What's up everybody and welcome back to The Beard and The Bun Podcast! In this episode, The Beard showcases a new segment titled, "Hear Me Out," and goes over what to expect within these episodes. 

    DISCLAIMER: Hear Me Out will probably come off as controversial and/or offensive to those who are easily offended. With that said, we encourage you to listen at your own risk, as well as to respect our own thoughts/opinions.

    We feel obligated to state that disclaimer because we have collectively noticed that people are becoming fearful to express their personal opinions in order to avoid social media bullies. We will gladly stand in the face of these bullies and respect their views, thoughts & opinions and we expect the same respect in return. 

    That all said, this episode dives into The Beard's take on the concept of "Guardian Angels," or entities that protect people from harm. Do you believe in such things? If you do or don't please let us know over on our socials, website or email linked below!

    As always, if you enjoyed this episode, we would greatly appreciate if you share this episode with your friends, family, and coworkers!
