Just in time for back-to-school Turg, Randy Z are back and joined by their super secret special co-host Sankeyz. Join the guys as they shake off the cobwebs of a month-long, unannounced hiatus and get back behind the mics for some fun podcasting adventures. Change is a part of life - so get used to it Sankeyz discusses changes over the past 5 months that have left him with more questions than answers. New job. Changing economy. All these things are affecting his ability to make decisions and execute. Randy shares his new home-buying adventures. Will Randy ever close escrow? More negotiations to come for Randy throughout the process, but this is a lesson you can't be told - something you need to learn on your own. Randy is certainly not happy with his home-buying situation, but how far is he willing to go? Taking a break from something is A-OK The guys open up about not releasing during the month of July. Summer lull? Just plain lazy? Well, it's a bit of both. Podcasting isn't easy. Breaks are certainly a part of making sure you remain engaged in your creative endeavor. This is why we have vacations at work. So why are the guys struggling with the idea of coming back to the show and releasing more episodes? A lot of this is attributed to the changes that have come about in recent months. Accelerating through your 30s might be such a challenge that it's often hard to maintain hobbies or even a set, regimented schedule. Turg offers some insight as to why stepping away might be better than just powering through just to get it done. But, are we of a societal mindset that values mediocre content over the more meaningful stuff? Unexpected change or transition can sometimes derail progress, so how do you handle it? Randy gets deep into his thoughts about the considerations going into this new phase in his life. Grad school? New home? Marriage? Kids? Why does 30 have to be so hard?! And it goes by so fast. A common theme of our 30s has been the lack of time. Now more than ever, being really shrewd with time is critical in ensuring you are maximizing your potential in your 30s. The decisions we make now will shape the rest of our 30s and maybe even beyond. It's important to think carefully about the next steps and implications they may have. Coping with 30 never ends Turg shares his mechanisms behind coping with 30. It's not easy, but there is a way to do it and he's always mentioned it. Write. Write out your feelings, your thoughts, goals, desires. Get it all out. This mechanism helps you align your thoughts with your emotions and gets everything out of your head and onto paper. It might be perceived as a way to just forget, but in most regards it helps clear the mind and allows for new thoughts and emotions. Kind of like a scab. Randy asks Turg some really difficult questions to which Turg can't really answer. In our 30s we don't really have all the answers. That's the beauty of  being 30. Just embrace the unknown and keep on pushing forward until we figure this thing out together.
The guys are back from a month-long hiatus where some questions were asked and then left unanswered. Who has returned from the break the most changed? Does Turg have another baby on the way? Did Sankeyz decide to become a lawyer? Did Randy ever find that house he's wanted to buy? All these questions answered and more!
