Overcoming Toxic Independence with 7-Figure Business Coach Cait Scudder 49:03

۳ years پیش49:03

49:03

Cait is a Forbes-featured 7-figure Business Coach for women and, in her words, your excuse’s worst nightmare. But back when we met in 2019, she was in distress. She’d been invited to deliver a TEDx talk, and suddenly found herself in unfamiliar territory. Cait was a master at riffing on livestreams. She had attracted a sizable social media following and went from quitting the 9-5 to multiple six figures as a business coach in just a few years, leaning hard on her magnetism and charisma, grounded in sharp intellect. But a TED talk? That’s a whole different ball game, requiring precision and rehearsal. In just 2 months we clarified her Big Idea, structured the talk, and wrote the script. I had the honor of traveling to upstate New York to watch her deliver the talk live and in-person on the Red Dot. And within 10 minutes of that night, she transformed her business into a 7-figure global empire. Today she’s a millionaire CEO, mom to the most adorable little girl - born just a week after my son - and has another on the way. In this conversation, Cait and I pull back the curtain on the coaching industry: What is a business coach, when do you know you need one, and what should you expect from a coaching relationship? She also explains the difference between 1-1 and group coaching, both for those thinking of joining a coaching program, and for coaches deciding which type of program to offer their clients. And of course, Cait shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Plus, she gives a super inspirational piece of advice to young professionals trying to make it in this increasingly chaotic and isolated world.

Do you want to become more interesting than Netflix? Francisco is a storytelling expert and one of my favorite professional friends. We met a couple years ago when he invited me to be one of the first guests on his podcast, of which I am also the first repeat guest. It only seemed right that after hours of talking about my work on his show, he should have a chance to talk about his work on mine. And let me tell you, this is one of the most practical episodes in seasons. We discussed the difference between motivational speaking and being a content matter expert, what a story really is and why you should be telling them in business, and where to find stories to tell. Then we did a deep dive on story structure, the different types and when they work, or don’t. And of course, Francisco shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Plus, he gives a very practical piece of advice to young professionals trying to make it in this increasingly chaotic and isolated world.

Julia Freeland is a passionate educator and change engineer, who has spent most of her life working to help people break through limiting beliefs and seemingly impenetrable barriers to become better versions of themselves. She is also the author of Take Your Shoes Off First, a parable book with a message near and dear to my heart - perspective-taking. Julia and I discussed that weird head nod teenage boys do, and why it might be more important than you think, the role of language in human connection, how to become undisruptable in your life and career, why today’s world is more like open sea swimming than laps in a pool, the one question that triggers empathy in any conversation, and how to get your kids to eat vegetables. And of course, Julia shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.

Mark Metry is an entrepreneur, a Forbes featured TEDx and keynote speaker, and a podcast host who has interviewed billionaires, New York Times bestselling authors and world-class human beings on his Global Top 100 podcast. But once upon a time he couldn't make direct eye contact with anyone. Mark suffered from social anxiety. And boy can I relate to that. In this conversation we discussed the seeming contradiction of running a group program for people with social anxiety, his background as an immigrant who overcame bullying, racial discrimination, and health issues to become a success entrepreneur in his teens, how he pushed through social anxiety to become a global top 100 podcaster, and crucially, how to know when to quit a project or task. And of course, Mark shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.

The Barrel of a Loaded Calendar - Reclaim your humanity with writer Corey McComb 1:02:57

1:02:57

Corey McComb is a writer based in San Diego. Through blog posts, essays, and the occasional short story, Corey examines the human condition and new ways of thinking. He also works with people and companies who need to tell their stories to launch products and spread ideas. And speaking of spreading ideas, that’s how I came across Corey’s work: his brand new TEDx talk. It’s called, “Productivity Is For Robots! Here’s How to Stay Human.” And it quickly became one of my all-time favorite TEDx talks. As someone who has both given a viral TEDx talk myself, and coached dozens of speakers to spread their big idea on the red dot, I was absolutely blown away by Corey’s content, delivery, structure, and of course, writing. In this conversation we discuss many things, but it all centers on being a professional creative. How do you get ideas, balancing business with creativity, why you should be a collector of stories, what he did when he went completely blank during his TEDx talk, how comedian John Mulaney changed his life… And of course, Corey shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. Plus, he gives a terrific piece of advice to young professionals trying to build their career in an increasingly unpredictable world, so be sure to stick around to the end of this longer episode. It’s worth it.

Making Ideas Behave - Crafting Irresistible Messages with Tamsen Webster 1:10:31

1:10:31

Today’s guest Tamsen Webster, and she’s just as cool as her name suggests. Tamsen is a message strategist. In a sentence, she helps experts make their ideas irresistible. She’s the former executive producer of TEDx Cambridge, one of the legacy TEDx conferences and before that spent 13 years as a Weight Watchers leader. But those of us in the industry know her as The Idea Whisperer. I’m a huge fan of Tamsen and her work, and last year she finally released a book detailing her proprietary method for crafting ideas into irresistible messages. It’s called Find Your Red Thread. I bought it, read it in one day, and immediately implemented it in my work as a speaker AND in my own coaching practice working with TEDx speakers and leaders. The episode you’re about to hear is less an interview and more a conversation between two geeks over ideas, storytelling, and messaging. Some topics we covered: What is a red thread? Why are ideas so important? Behind-the-scenes look at the TEDx process. How to differentiate your idea from everyone else’s, when it seems like there are no new ideas left in the universe. Tamsen explains the persuader’s paradox, which I thought would make a great name for an indie rock band. She also dives deep into why typical story structures just don’t work for normal, everyday situations and what we can do instead. And of course, Tamsen shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact. This episode is dense and absolutely jam-packed.

Today’s guest Helen G. Sneed. Helen is a career coach, HR consultant, and speaker. She also founded Drive The Goal, a consulting firm that helps people and organizations take charge of their lives and career, and navigate change, where she is the Principal Partner.

She has an Associate’s degree, a Bachelor’s Degree, and an MBA. And, most notably, she was recently named one of Connecticut and Massachusetts 100 Women of Color. So basically, she knows a lot. She’s done a lot. And we talked about a lot. In this conversation Helen and I discussed how to fix your elevator speech, what philanthropy really is and how anyone can do it, even if you don’t have money, how to navigate health issues when the world is falling apart, diversity and inclusion in the modern workplace, her saxophone playing husband, and of course, Helen Shares her story of a chance encounter with lasting impact.

The Positive Apocalypse - Framing and Influence with Zoe Chance 52:32

Today’s guest is Zoe Chance. Zoe is one of the world’s foremost researchers and speakers on ethical influence and persuasion. She’s a beloved Yale professor who teaches the most popular course at the School of Management: Mastering Influence and Persuasion. Her new book, Influence Is Your Superpower: The Science of Winning Hearts, Sparking Change, and Making Good Things Happen , is based on that course. Zoe is also a dear friend and collaborator who helped me craft my now famous TEDx talk back in 2015. She is the first ever repeat guest on this podcast, having joined me way back in Season 1 when this show was called One New Person. Interestingly, that interview came at a time when Zoe was at the very crossroads that eventually led to this book. And that’s where this conversation picks up. We spoke about doing what you love, how to write an academic book that feels conversational and friendly, and why the book had to change completely in response to COVID. Diving into the book itself we focused largely on the power of framing as a tool of influence, which includes a discussion of mind readers, magicians, and gorillas. We also touched on how timing can be used to positively influence someone, and offer advice on how to stop turning people off by asking to “pick their brain” or “buy them a cup of coffee.” Finally, Zoe offers one critical piece of advice to young professionals trying to navigate this crazy, ever-changing world. I had the honor of reading Influence Is Your Superpower cover to cover as an advance publisher’s copy, and my one-sentence review is: This book is Robert Cialdini for the kindness generation.

Today’s guest is Thomas Heaton. Thomas is a landscape photographer and YouTuber. His YouTube channel has attracted over half a million subscribers and features weekly video blogs of his photo shoots in some of the most stunning locations on earth. I’m neither a photographer nor into nature. But there’s something magical about the way he films the process of spending hours and sometimes days in pursuit of a single photo. I’ve been a subscriber and huge fan of Thomas since the early days of his channel, and it was such a treat to spend an hour discussing creativity as a serious pursuit. Our conversation ranged from the power of publicly admitting your mistakes, to the battle against repetition in pursuit of expertise, how he approaches storytelling, getting into a flow state, the role of intentionality in creativity, loneliness, and the role of luck in success. And of course, Thomas shares his story of a chance encounter with lasting impact, and gives one critical piece of advice to young professionals trying to make it in this crazy world.

Kelly Leonard spent most of the 90s and 2000s as an executive producer at the world famous Second City improv theater in Chicago. He is personally responsible for hiring Tina Fey, Stephen Colbert, Amy Poehler, and Steve Carell. He also wrote the book Yes, And… , a book on creativity and collaboration in the workplace, based on lessons from improv comedy and Second City. In this conversation, Kelly talks us through Second City’s Pivot into virtual improv performances during the 2020 pandemic. We learn about the difference between improv and spontaneity, how to gain agency over our emotions, a brilliant exercise you can do to achieve clarity and mental calmness in difficult times, why he describes COVID as a period of “sway,” and of course, he teaches us the “yes, and…” principle. This was a blast, and a perfect way to close out an absolutely wild year of Pivot stories.

In this conversation, Kay helps us understand what she believes are the four core emotions, and a clear system for navigating them. We also spoke at length about her own Pivots - in her career and personal life. Kay was thrown one devastating curveball after another these past few years, and this episode is really a testament to resilience and creative adaptation.

Xabier Marshall is a personal trainer and the owner of Multiply Performance in the UK. I discovered Xabier while reading a BBC article about gyms in a COVID and post-COVID world. I’ve never been to a gym in my life, so I couldn’t tell you why I was reading that article. But Xabier was quoted about successfully Pivoting his personal training to an app-based plan. I had to know more. So I sent him a cold message on LinkedIn and 3 days later we recorded this episode. In this conversation we discussed people’s perceptions of personal trainers, Xabier’s initial emotional response to the 2020 lockdowns, how being marketing-minded allowed him to see what was next and what was needed, his new app-based training program, and his predictions about the future of the gym and fitness industry.

Ken Davenport is a two-time Tony award-winning Broadway producer. He is best known for Spring Awakening, Kinky Boots, and the revival of Godspell. Ken is renowned in the theater community as an innovative marketer. In 2008 he started a blog called The Producer’s Perspective, dedicated to making the business of Broadway accessible and understandable. He also created Be a Broadway Star , the only Broadway-themed board game. Ken and I met when we were both panelists on the same livestream. He spoke so passionately about theater’s resilience, I knew I had to invite him to our little corner of the Internet. In this conversation, Ken helps us understand where Broadway is and where it’s likely going. In particular, he answered the burning question: Did Hamilton’s streaming success open the doors to an entirely new revenue stream for theater? My wife Lindsey and I are Broadway fanatics, as you know, so this was a huge treat. Also, a last-minute update. Ken and I recorded this conversation in January of 2021, but as I’m releasing it in May, after months of successful vaccine rollouts, it has just been announced that Broadway will be allowed to reopen at 100% capacity in September.

Returning to Rituals in the Age of Change with Dr. Caitlin O'Connell 44:06

Dr. Caitlin O'Connell is a scientist, author, and storyteller. She holds a PhD in ecology, holds positions at both Harvard and Stanford, is an award-winning author of non-fiction, children’s books, and graphic novels, AND is a renowned expert on elephants. What’s that got to do with Pivoting, resilience, adaptability, human connection, or even just networking, for that matter? I had no idea. We were connected through a mutual acquaintance and, if I’m being honest, I only agreed out of politeness. I’m so glad that I did. This was the most unexpected, dare I say wild, conversation of the season, and quite possibly my favorite. Dr. O’Connell was just gearing up for a huge fundraising effort for her nonprofit organization, Utopia Scientific when the pandemic wiped out all possible fundraising events for the foreseeable future. In her words, she was forced with a decision: Implode, or explode? And boy did she explode, in the most creative way possible. In this conversation, Caitlin and I discuss everything from the bone conduction properties of elephants, to how hard it is to take our own advice, to the value of pressing pause, and how critical travel is in developing empathy, perspective, and understanding of both ourselves and our place in the world. And of course, we talked about Dr. O’Connell’s new book “Wild Rituals: 10 Lessons Animals Can Teach Us About Connection, Community, and Ourselves.” I’ve just started it, and it’s wonderful. Now an asterisk. Upon listening back to our conversation, I noticed that Caitlin and I both advocated passionately for some things that are only afforded to people of privilege. Pausing during a pandemic, to think critically about the future, was not an option for people who didn’t have savings or financial security. Travel has always been prohibitively expensive - particularly the kind of air travel we discussed, to far off lands and foreign cultures. So, I wanted to underscore once again the critical role of luck, in this case the luck of privilege, in the ability to Pivot success during a pandemic. With that said, this conversation is truly magical and I know you’re going to love it.

From Superheroes to Super Broke with Allen Williams 43:13

Allen Williams is an audio professional in the TV and film industry. He’s worked on projects like The Vampire Diaries, Spider-Man Homecoming, Creed, The Founder, Stranger Things, Cobra Kai, Avengers Infinity War… and some big name projects, too. Like everyone else in the entertainment industry, when COVID hit Allen found himself suddenly without income, prospects, or even hope that work would come back. But that was only the beginning of his 2020 nightmare. Two months before the pandemic, in January 2020, a contractor discovered an outdated part of their house that was no longer up to code. It was exorbitantly expensive to fix, but Allen and his wife decided to empty their savings rather than take out a loan, because he had plenty of work lined up. Then the TV and film industry collapsed, leaving him without an income for what would become 9 months. To make matters worse, his wife got COVID almost immediately, putting her on bedrest for nearly 2 months while fighting alternating fever and near-hypothermia episodes. During which Allen had to spend even more money getting his older daughters set up for remote learning. When his wife finally recovered, they discovered many friends and family had also been hit hard by the virus, some in critical condition. In this conversation Allen walks us through everything. For the nerds like me, he also teaches us exactly what a boom operator is, and how the TV and film industry economy works and why its shutdown was so destructive to local businesses across America, not just the actors and immediate crew, and how the industry changed in order to safely return to work. Plus, we learn about Allen’s personal pivot, driven by generosity and charity, which is something we’ve hardly heard at all this season on the podcast.

The Healing Power of Organ Donation with Elisse Glennon 38:54

Elisse Glennon is the Executive Director of the New Jersey Sharing Network Foundation. The NJ Sharing Network is a non-profit organization for the recovery and placement of donated organs and tissues. The foundation, where Elisse presides, is dedicated to increasing the numbers of lives saved through research, family support, public awareness, and education. 4000 New Jersey residents alone are waiting on the transplant list. So when COVID threatened the entire national healthcare system, Elisse and her team of 180 committed professionals plus volunteers had to navigate incredibly shaky seas. The big question was, would donations plummet, devastating the chances of everyone on that list, desperately in need of a transplant? Not on Elisse’s watch. Instead, the NJ Sharing Network had a record year. And in this conversation, Elisse teaches us precisely how they did it. Now, you might be tired of hearing about “mindset shifts” from the self-help community. But Elisse and her team are proof that it’s often mindset, not tactics, that carry the day. In particular, pay close attention to how she describes the process of asking grieving families for a donation, and the shift from viewing it as a burden to recognizing it as a gift.

The Magic of Staying on Message with Disney's Dan Cockerell 44:15

Dan Cockerell started his Disney career directing cars in the parking lot. But when he left 26 years later to pursue an entrepreneurial journey of his own, he was in charge of the entire daily operations of the happiest place on earth. I invited Dan on the podcast to help us understand how the hospitality industry has responded to Covid overall. You’re going to learn about the power of staying on message, the secret to hiring and training a world class team, when attitude trumps skills, the No. 1 mistake most companies make that lead to their downfall, how to handle an increasingly competitive marketplace, and the value of trust. Plus, stick around to the very end, when I asked Dan to tell me ONE thing that even Disney superfans wouldn’t know about the Magic Kingdom. And boy did he deliver. This was a huge honor. As you know, my wife Lindsey and I are Disney superfans. Getting to spend an hour chatting with one of the most senior people at our favorite place on earth was truly surreal. Dan was super gracious and very generous, which made it even better.

How to Stand Out and Lead Your Industry with Jesse Cole 42:41

۴ years پیش42:41

42:41

Jesse Cole is the owner of the Savannah Bananas, a collegiate summer league baseball team based in Georgia. Here’s a few facts about the Bananas: They only sell one ticket and it’s all inclusive. Their players perform choreographed dances every game. They are the only baseball team to play in kilts. Their coaching staff includes a 9-year-old and a grandma. They have a senior citizen dance team called the Banana Nanas. Their stadium is the first ever ad-free ballpack. They have sold out every game since their first season. And Jesse is known as the “man in the yellow tux,” because, well, he wears a yellow tux. Not just sometimes, but always. I’ve been following Jesse’s journey for years. We were originally connected through Ron Holt, the founder and CEO of national franchise Two Maids & a Mop, who appeared on the podcast back in Season 2. Jesse speaks and writes about leadership and service. He hosts the Business Done Differently podcast. And he wrote the book “Find Your Yellow Tux.” In this conversation, Jesse takes me through the absolute devastation of taking a 7-figure loss in response to COVID, back in March of 2020. Not only did the Bananas’ survive the hit… not only did they keep every single staff member employed... but they literally reinvented the sport of baseball in the process. This interview is hilarious, enlightening, moving, and inspiring. You’ll learn how Jesse’s “fans first” philosophy inspired the most innovative period of his entrepreneurial journey, how he and his wife Emily’s history of crushing setbacks prepared him for this historic moment, and how you can lead your business, community, or family with selflessness and generosity.

Turning Chaos into Profits with Top Chef's Tyler Anderson 39:06

Tyler Anderson is a chef and owner of multiple high-end restaurants. He’s also a James Beard award-nominee and appeared on both The Food Network and Top Chef on Bravo. If you’re thinking, didn’t you recently interview a restaurant owner? I did. This is a companion episode to my conversation with Pam Paydos. In fact, Pam connected me with Tyler in the first place many years ago. Pam’s restaurant Popover and Tyler’s flagship restaurant Millwrights are in the same small Connecticut town. And, like Pam, Tyler has not only stayed in business, but remained a pillar of the community through all the insanity of the last year. But that’s where the similarities stop. See, while Pam’s restaurant is a tiny breakfast and lunch bakery nestled in a quaint shopping plaza, Tyler’s Millwrights is a massive fine dining dinner establishment overlooking a waterfall. While Pam’s Pivot was to remodel, nurture the relationship with loyal customers, and make the most of her petite square footage… Tyler built dine-in greenhouses. Honestly, this episode is wild. And I don’t want to spoil it.

Why education failed but teachers succeeded in 2020 with Stefanie Faye Frank 45:00

Today we’ve got one of our featured experts for the season. Stefanie Faye Frank is a neuroscience researcher. She specializes in translating complex scientific concepts into real-world language to help people find new ways to use their talents, discomforts, failures, and challenges as pathways to growth and evolution. In other words, she helps people Pivot by transforming negatives into positives. I invited Stefanie to chat specifically about education’s response to COVID over the past year. How did the field of education respond, and how did individual teachers respond? This turned into an enlightening conversation on the nature of change itself, at both the individual level and the systemic level. In particular, pay close attention to what Stefanie calls “survival of the busiest,” and how we can leverage that principle to create the change we actually want.

Saving a Small Town Restaurant with Pam Paydos 25:44

Pam Paydos is a beloved Connecticut-based entrepreneur and restaurateur who long-time listeners of this podcast will remember. In fact, Pam was the very first guest ever on this show, back when it was called One New Person. When everything shut down, restaurants were the first and most visible industry to pivot, shifting to take-out only and building the foundation of curbside pickup, now a mainstay in our culture. Can you remember a time without curbside pickup? In Pam’s case, it was even trickier. Her current restaurant is a bistro and bakery, designed around a small-town ambience and community tables in a very tight space. She didn’t have the systems or staff to do take-out. But almost a year later, Popover Bistro and Bakery remains a pillar of the community. In this conversation Pam walks us through the nightmare of her Pivot. Pay attention to how her unwavering commitment to staying alive kept her going, even in the darkest of times. A word before you listen: In true COVID fashion, we had a lot of Internet difficulties during this particular recording. Due to an intermittent Internet connection, I had to ask Pam to repeat her stories many times, which was frustrating for both of us. I was already asking her to relive incredibly difficult and emotional moments that were still fresh. I felt awful asking her to repeat them. As such, this episode will feel a little pieced together. I did the best I could to take the highest quality pieces of the recording and splice them into a coherent conversation. Still, there’s SO much good stuff here. Thank you Pam, for being so understanding in the midst of chaos.

Hana Jung is the founder of Re:Boot Experiences, a set of programs designed to help people stop being machines, and start being human, again. We were connected through a mutual friend David Nebinski who runs the Career Portfolio podcast, on which we’ve both appeared. When COVID hit Hana was already in the midst of personal tragedy and family emergencies. As you’ll hear her describe, COVID was basically secondary to the devastating unfolding in her personal life. So she called upon her own inner strength, the same strength she teaches and facilitates with Re:Boot, to create her Pivot. In this conversation you’ll hear how being a first generation child of immigrant parents shaped Hana’s philosophy on life, how she previously Pivoted away from a miserable career in corporate America, and what it means to Re:Boot your life. By the end, this episode is truly more than the sum of its parts.

Making Puppets out of a Pandemic with Sandra Krueger 37:02

Sandra is the Director of Drama for the College of the Albemarle in North Carolina. But that’s not what she was doing in March 2020 when the world fell apart. Back then, Sandra was the Associate Director for Music off Main, a studio that specialized in early childhood music education. But when Covid shut down the ability to safely sing in-person, the studio space they rented was no longer a financially viable option. Suddenly Sandra’s work in music education, and her personal career in opera, were ripped away. In the fall she took on a new role as Director of Drama for a community college in rural North Carolina. Within days she faced a dilemma: How do you safely put on a theatrical production in the middle of a pandemic that even shut down Broadway? Her answer? Puppets.

Today’s guest is Jason Tanner. Jason is the CEO and Co-Founder of Applied Frameworks, a consulting firm based in North Carolina. When the world shut down, Jason had 10 employees whose livelihoods and families’ security depended on his ability to pivot. Luckily, Jason served nine years in the Marine Corp, and knew that open, consistent, and efficient communication would be the key moving forward. As you’re about to find out, Jason has a direct, linear method of communicating. It actually caught me off-guard, as I’m used to having free-flowing conversations on this podcast, full of diversions and tangents. Instead, Jason is laser-focused. And as far as I can tell, that’s why he still has 10 employees today. Pay close attention not only to Jason’s content, but his method of delivery.

Fooling Penn & Teller to Zoom Magician: Stuart MacDonald's pivot story 36:41

Today’s featured Pivoter is Stuart MacDonald. Stuart is a rare bird. He’s a magician, but he’s really a character actor who happens to be a magician. He's also won a ton of prestigious awards in magic and fooled Penn & Teller on the CW's hit show Fool Us. You see, magicians, myself included, are typically just heightened versions of themselves. But Stuart creates characters with backstories, wants, and needs, and inhabits them fully. Why don’t more magicians do it? Because it’s really freakin’ hard. In March of 2020, Stuart was the very last person to step foot on stage at the famous Magic Castle in Hollywood, before they shut their doors and the world went into lockdown. Unlike most Pivoters this season, Stuart did not immediately turn to virtual in order to salvage his career. In fact, he hung up his magic act and started searching for a normal 9-5. But nearly a year later, Stuart is still a professional magician, delivering some of the most inventive virtual shows in the industry. How did he get here? This is his Pivot story.

Embracing the Pause with Cal Fussman 1:22:21

Cal Fussman is an award-winning journalist and New York Times best-selling author. He is the Writer at Larger for Esquire magazine where he interviews legends upon legends, including Mikhail Gorbachev, Jimmy Carter, Ted Kennedy, Jeff Bezos, Quincy Jones, Muhammad Ali, and Kobe Bryant. Cal now works as a speaker and consultant for organizations who need to tell their stories better. And he hosts Big Questions, one of my personal favorite podcasts and always in my Top 5, maybe even Top 3, most recommended no matter who I'm speaking to. Admittedly, I was nervous to interview one of the world's most legendary interviewers. I needn't have been. True to Cal's style, he made a connection with me before we'd even begun, and the conversation just rolled from there. As such, you won't hear any of my regular questions today. Instead, you get to eavesdrop on a very real, personal, and often hilarious conversation that I imagine isn't much different than the conversation we would have had off-camera. Cal and I chat about his fear of technology, the 2008 recession, how tennis and surfing taught him everything he needed to survive the current pandemic (even though he doesn't do either), and how to connect with anyone. Cal even shares The Magic Question you can ask anybody if you need to quickly make a connection.
