Episode 11: The Perspective Series - James

Ladies and Male people,

We welcome you back to the BSP where we are kicking off an exciting and uniquely simple set of episodes called "The Perspective Series" where we are featuring people we find interesting, powerful, and/or thought-provoking. Our first guest is my good friend James Moore. He's a comedian, a father, a professional, a black man in "white America" and a damn-good friend.

When you listen to this series, fight your urge to disagree or combat our guests' points. We ask that instead, you seek first to understand.

What is Missing?

Teddy reflects on a random conversation that he and his dad shared recently about feeling stagnant in life. Might be worth a listen.

Episode 10.5: BourbonTown BONUS Episode

Luis and Teddy shared a fantastic conversation on the mysterious topic of faith and beliefs in all of their forms...and Luis's Macbook didn't record it...

So here is a bonus episode to hold you over! We're calling it BourbonTown. In the episode, we pretty much talk about alcohol, books, and other recommendations. It's kinda dope.

We PROMISE that a serious episode will be next. We still have feelings.

Episode 10: Just Do It

What is it that you have been waiting to do? Signing up for a gym membership? Taking an online course? Meeting up with an old friend you've been putting off? How about just treating people better? Luis and Teddy discuss some lessons learned from Stephen Covey's "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People", namely how to separate concern and worry from preparation and proactivity. We aim to push you and ourselves to take the next step into the future of better habits.

Episode 09.5: "'Louber' is Dead"

What's the word, baby bird?! Luis and Teddy have finally returned - later than expected, but ready to take on the New Year with you! This is a Coffee Town episode where we reintroduce what we are all about in this show (if you don't need a refresh, feel free to skip ahead a bit). Additionally, we joke about how Luis tried playing cat and mouse with his cable provider, his strong but brief obsessions, and how Teddy accidentally threw himself a work farewell party. Stay tuned for our next episode on faith - what it means to different people and how your co-hosts took unusual paths to end up where we are today.

Episode 09: The Seasons of Life

Yo Yo Yo, 

 Luis and Teddy are back for their final main episode of season one! In this conversation, they discuss the value of seeing life in seasons - that is events, movements, and circumstances that shape the way we feel and look at the life we're living. Things can change so quickly, as can our perspectives. And is that really so bad? What can we learn from looking at life as a cycle or progression of seasons instead of one linear development? Luis recaps the last several months of pursuing and eventually purchasing a home with his wonderful wife, and Teddy shares some of the forces that have been shaping his mindset during this life season. We'll be back for our final Coffee Town episode very soon, and then we will be breaking for summer. We love you guys, and can't wait to get back together and do this in the fall.

Episode 08.5: "Getting Hustled & Tears of Laughter"

Thank you for coming back for some laughs with ya boyz from the BSP!

In this gut-busting episode, Luis and Teddy get way off track from any kind of planned structure, but we're glad for it.  Luis talks about getting hustled in Chicago, while Teddy recounts a similar story of getting punked in NYC.  Of course, we return to our favorite game: "What's That From?", then we play a new concept birthed out of happenstance: "She Might Be Into It" #shemightbeintoit. Finally, and Teddy has been waiting for this: Luis unleashes unfiltered laughter like you may have never heard in your life. You can't not laugh while listening. Enjoy!
