Good.
Good.
Good.
You went to the doc yesterday?
Yeah.
Went down to my doctor in two rivers yesterday.
So it's good to get.
So I went.
It's so hard.
He's, he's good about it though.
But he's, it's, you know what?
Here's, here's the thing these days.
You know, when you used to have a regular family doctor, okay?
I had Dr. Ellen Scherkatsky.
Dr. Ellen Scherkatsky.
Wow.
Do you remember Dr. L?
Yeah, absolutely.
Every week, he was on channel 11.
Dr. L, second.
And I'd say, Dr. L, here's what I got.
And, okay, I know you might know.
I'll get you some.
Yeah, you got it.
Nothing bad.
But nowadays, like, all I need, I know that predazone, whatever predazone, I don't even know what predazone is.
But when I get it, it knocks this out.
But it takes like three days to go someplace and, you know what I mean?
So I just went down to my family doctor and just said, hey, here's what I got.
Here's what knocks it out.
But it's like, you got to deal with something for like four days.
before you can get in to see anybody and before you can get any meds.
Whereas the old days, you just call your doctor, but I'm sure everything's so, they're so careful now, but it doesn't help when you're the one afflicted.
What'd you agree?
No, no, no, no, no.
Those guys know what they're doing.
I went to see my mom after we left Oshkosh.
And I made a mistake.
And I called her.
I said, hey, I got some treats for you, some cannoli.
And I told you I was getting my hair done.
And I, because we're going to this wedding this weekend, right?
And I like forgot.
And she said, she'd, and I'm wondering, so I was driving.
I said, okay, I'll just, she goes, you can bring it to the wedding.
We'll have it with some coffee there.
I'm like, okay.
I wonder if she goes to her friends and says, you know, I'm worried about my son.
I told him something and he's being forgettable.
She's 92, I'm 60.
In fact, I'll be honest with you, she has called us.
So you know what happened to me yesterday?
Again?
What happened?
So I'm driving down to Manitowoc, two rivers, okay?
And of course, on 10, yeah, somebody's going 27 miles an hour and a 50 mile, 55, okay?
So I floor it to get around them.
Okay, because they're looking at the scenery and going 14 miles an hour and, okay.
So I keep calm and I do the, so I got my, I'm going to show everybody my boot.
It's like a ski boot.
Okay.
Can I show this, Todd?
Oh no.
And the gas pedal again.
Oh no.
As I'm going down the highway.
Who's so important you got talked to right now?
No, I was just confirming my my part is all right.
So anyway, um, so I'm driving down the highway and it gets jammed in between So but and I could not get it out.
All right, so I'm going about 70 and I can't slow down I'm trying to use my left foot But when I put my left foot on the brake all that does is pulls my boot further down So I get to the hospital and I step out and all I could smell was brake lining.
Oh
Gosh
Yeah.
It's also a national pet day.
Congratulations, everybody.
But I'm sure if you get a pet, it's pretty much every day is your day.
I mean, that's part of your life, man.
And you get a pet.
World Parkinson's Day very very very very very important thing in the world
I'll tell you something I don't know what it is that I saw a thing yesterday with Steve McMichael's birthday Steve McMichael Chicago Bears NFL Hall of Fame one of the most badass people in the world I don't know if it's Parkinson's or ALS or something but Jim McMahon and a bunch of his teammates visited him yesterday and said pictures of him whatever he has
That's wow.
It's God bless him.

It really and truly is.
And I think the NFL, I know they're trying to do things now.
Obviously, they're trying to do all kinds of things now.
But they're about 20 years too late for a whole generation of players.

The head of the Democratic Party in Wisconsin, Ben Wickler, has decided he will not seek
another term.
Charing the party since 2019, Wickler said it's time for him to take a breath and find new ways to advance the fight in the United States for working people, freedom and dignity.
Quickly after Wickler's announcement, Devon Remaker of Two Rivers and former executive director of the Wisconsin Democratic Party announced his bid to fill the top spot.
Party members will elect a new chair to a two-year term at the 2025 Wisdoms Convention in Wisconsin Dells in June.

More roads in the Lambeau Field area will be closed starting Sunday.
The NFL draft stage is going up along with the excitement for the event.

35 year old Michael Donnelly of Appleton pleaded not guilty Thursday to the co-sleeping death of his one month old son in 2010.
Donnelly, who was 20 years old at the time of the incident, is accused of drinking heavily and causing the death of the infant.
Officials say it took 15 years to bring charges because the case was lost after the original investigating officers left the Appleton Police Department.
The file was finally turned over to the DA's office last year.
Defense attorneys argue that the evidence does not support the charge of reckless homicide.
The trial will take place September 29th.

Hey.
great.
How are you guys
Did I give you some good advice during the year over the years?
Give me some great excellent advice.
Thank you, sir But I tell you that when I was in Iraq and when I say I was in Iraq when I visited Iraq to visit the troops and I asked them about things that we don't appreciate living here in Northeast, Wisconsin that they realize now when they're away from it
And I said, just going to think, so I said, I'm going to read them on my radio show.
And you know what?
The first thing was walking up to a high school football game and hearing a band play on a Friday night in the fall.
Really?
That's what they.
How cool is that?
Isn't that something?
And I would
not have guessed
No.
And I remember thinking to myself.
I don't know if we appreciate that as much as we maybe because you know you I mean you're so focused on the game or we're on Friday nights I'm focused on doing whatever I do and we I don't think we enjoyed it as much maybe and soaked it all in the way other people do and I just I want to tell you that that you know you're such an unbelievable part of high school football in the state of Wisconsin and you know I try to still play my little part but I think sometimes we gotta just sit back and say you know what we're pretty lucky to be a part of this.
There's no doubt about it.
Yeah, we talked a lot about that with our kids of trying to enjoy the moment.
And I was probably guilty of not enjoying it as much as I should have.
We always talked about, I think as coaches, it's kind of like a family vacation and just making sure that the kids are having a good time.
But I'm glad you shared that with me because high school football is special.
And those moments are definitely something that, as you look back, just the band, the crowd, the kids, all those things are.
just such a unique thing in the fall in Wisconsin.
And we're talking with Steve Jones, former head coach at Kimberly High School, unbelievable record at Kimberly.
He's co-hosting a thing, leadership, I shouldn't say a thing, leadership workshop with Lucas Jaden, your partner.
Talk a little bit about what you've turned your life into coach in regards to helping other people now because you walked away from like maybe the greatest high school coaching job in Wisconsin history in some ways and you decided you wanted to help other people and share different things to help them
take that next step in whether it's, you know, their home life, their business life, whatever their professional life.
How, how did you get inspired to do something like this?
Yeah, it just kind of happened organically.
And to me, I think the mission is the same.
This is just trying to help people, right?
And the audience might be a little bit older, but you know, the opportunity not only to coach football came really high school, but I had the amazing opportunity to teach leadership classes that came really high school.
to teach and develop three separate leadership courses that all built on each other so it was definitely a passion of mine and it just kind of happened organically where I started to work with you know some businesses some local businesses and really had a passion for it and uh and then able to partner with Lucas Jayden who is my amazing partner and co- co-author of our book and uh we just again connected he's such an amazing person and
He really helps people become the best version of themselves.
He works with some of the highest performers in our country.
He gets to coach the manager of the LA Dodgers, Dave Roberts.
So he's been working one-on-one with him for six years.
So I consider Lucas a World Series champion.
But he gets to work with some amazing people, and we're really excited to be able to offer this event locally to anybody that wants to come.
A lot of our work, like we talked about in the last show,
is specifically with businesses that hire us.
And it's rare that we open up, kind of open up to the community to be able to experience some of the stuff that we get to do with these high performers.
You know, Steve, what's interesting about that is these high performers, you know, you're talking about Stryker, Mutual Volma.
I mean, everybody needs, there's something for everyone in these seminars, right?
Even though you might be a top performer, you know, people may perceive you as hitting on all cylinders.
There's still something to learn.
And I used to go to a lot of these seminars.
They had these in Milwaukee.
Well, this is probably 25 years ago, but you're too young.
But you know, Schwartzkoff would be there and Zig Ziglar, you know, that whole group.
Remember that?
Maybe you don't because, like I said, you're much younger than I am.
But I always sent my employees to that because there's always something to learn at these things.
And I just think, and this is like, yours is $99.
I think we paid a hell of a lot more than that.
What a great thing for people to get to because you always walk away with one nugget, don't you?
No doubt about it.
I think it's an amazing opportunity just to meet people where they're at.
And we already have a great sign up already, and it's diverse people from different organizations and different levels of leadership.
But I think the unique thing that you talked about too is when we get to work with these businesses, so many people don't necessarily always talk about the impact that it's making with them at work.
how it's making an impact with them at home.
It's making a better mom or dad or spouse or partner.
And they're able to take these very simple concepts and apply them in their personal life as well.
So not only makes them a better leader, a better performer at work, but just as importantly, they get to bring it home and make them a better person with the people they love the most.
It's like, you want to know what pressure is?
Pressure is feeding your family.
on how a 17 year old kid is going to be on Friday night.
You know, your life depended on that.
And you dealt with all these kids over the years, over the years, over the years.
What did you glean from dealing with those kids?
What did you walk away from that they taught you?
You know, that's a lot of things.
And that was one thing I talk about a lot is, you know, I specifically had the opportunity to teach these leadership classes and coach football is
I learned just as much as they did.
I learned from them.
You know, I learned a lot of what held them back, what they were fearful of, what they were excited about.
And, you know, it kept me young and fresh and on top of it.
So, you know, I could rattle off a bunch of different things, but I think the biggest thing is that every individual has their own journey and their own situations when they walk into a classroom, when they walk onto the football field and, you know, nobody
is the same right and everybody's got their own different story and if you can get to know what we talk about is really getting to know the person behind the uniform and you can get to know their story and their struggle and all those other things that's when you really form those bonds and we talked a lot that connected teams are powerful teams and creating that human connection of getting to know those kids and those stories because I think early on as a coach and as a teacher I didn't take the time to do that.
You know, they would come in, they would, you know, work with them.
We try to execute the game plan without getting to know the person behind the uniform.
But once we started doing that, I think it took us to another level.
The title actually was born from our leadership classes at Kimberly High School.
So I always post a question.
in the beginning of what held them, what holds you back from being the best version of yourself or being the best leader you can be.
And we actually have them write it down anonymously on a piece of paper.
They crumpled up.
They throw in the middle of the classroom.
Everybody would grab a random sheet and then everybody would read that random sheet.
And two things kept coming to the surface every single time.
And that was the fear of failure and the fear of judgment.
And what we talked about is a lot of times those two things, whether you're 17 or you're 70,
can really rob us of a lot of things in our life.
They can rob us of joy.
They can rob us of success or potential growth.
I could keep going on and on.
And we call them twins because a lot of times they get mixed up.
A lot of people say they're scared of failure.
But the more questions you ask, you realize they're not even necessarily scared of the failure itself.
They're worried about what the judgment comes after the failure.
So we call them twins because sometimes they get mixed up like twins.
And we call them thieves because they can really rob us.
We allow them to.
So.
You know, the book and our work is really helping people rise above those Twin Thieves to really embrace their journey and be the best version of themselves.
So the book is really how great leaders build great teams.
That's a subtitle.
And you do that by helping people rise above the fear of failure and the fear of judgment, which we call the Twin Thieves.
And in this leadership workshop that you're putting on, and we talk a little bit about high school uniforms and the stories, but like you said, whether you're 17 or 7-0,
Everybody's got their story, right?
I mean people gotta learn about people everyone's got some kind of story behind them and You still everyone still has those I don't know insecurities, right?
Self-doubts.
there's no doubt Yeah, there's no doubt about it and we in what was really interesting is You know that's what I was finding in the classroom And then I was having conversations with Lucas who was working with these high performers throughout the country And it was the same with them right and a lot of people think you know
once you experience, you know, some success or once you reach a certain age, then all of a sudden some of these insecurities go away.
But I think they actually magnify.
I'll be honest with you, when we were in the middle of that 70 game win streak, the fear of failure and the fear of judgment didn't go away.
It got stronger.
And, you know, probably Rob, me going back to what Mino was talking about of really enjoying some of those moments because, you know, I was so worried about, well, you know, what if we come up short now and what if, you know, all these what ifs and projecting a future that hasn't happened yet.
And so these things don't go away until you learn to rise above them.
And that's some of the stuff that we'll work around, you know, talk about at the workshop.
And again, that goes back to what we're talking about.
I think every single person.
Can can use this in the personal life in the professional life and we're gonna dive into some stuff that we haven't done before around Our next book which is gonna be centered around growing greatness Which we're really excited about of you know There's a lot of stuff out there from you know going from good to great But I don't think there's enough tools and stories and principles of once you experience success Then how do you continue to grow?
And we're going to talk about that, which I'm really excited about, which we really haven't done before.
Yes, absolutely.
And then if people sign up before April 15th, which is next week, they get to bring two guests for free.
So as you mentioned, it's $9.99.
I'm sorry, $99.99, but then you also get to bring, you know, a couple of people from your team at work or whoever.
So really it's a, it's a really cool opportunity to bring some people with you.
Uh, and I think a really affordable price for it.
This is amazing.
I
Yeah, I think the best place is going on LinkedIn.
So the Jaden Jones LinkedIn account, my personal LinkedIn account, we have a really cool video.
We just posted on it and the signup link is really easy to find there.
So Jaden Jones on LinkedIn or Steve Jones on LinkedIn, if you just want to.
search that you'll be able to find that rather easy.

We've got stories on weather and how it pertains to gardening.
A pest in the garden can be a great little heartwarming thing in the home and that's a bunny rabbit.
So I've got stories about adopting bunnies and other things too.
We've got stories on Project Search, prostate cancer, of course the classic movie Pick of the Week and more.
You'd have a domesticated bunny as a pet.
The domesticated bunnies are specifically bred to be pets.
And you can train them.
Oh, yes, bunnies are extremely intelligent, and they're soft, and they're social, and they're cute, and they can be trained to do tricks.
They taste good.
Butt buns.

I love bunnies.
If I had my druthers, I would have a bunny, but instead of a
tarantula, me too.

I don't know how to train your rabbit.
Hey, but you talk about gardening, you say it's a little bit early, but it's not too early to start ordering the garden beds if you want one.
