Show Notes
Welcome to Season 3 of the podcast.
We love books and reading, and today we have a two-for! A double whammy of Goggins - who we decided is definitely in the 0.001% of humans.
Where do these books fit in the self-help and motivational world? 4030 pull ups in 17 hours? Moab240? The world of Goggins is crazy.
Master your mind and defy the odds.
Unshackle your mind and win the war within.
TAKE SOME SOULS!
