Andrew Gruel: How Tough Coaches Made Strong Men and Eating on a Budget

Andrew Gruel joins the show to talk work ethic, food, and why modern culture feels softer than it used to. They break down how late-night shows operate, the $15-a-day food myth, why American dishes were built on function, and what giving away meals really teaches about work. The conversation spans medieval labor, the Miracle on Ice, tough coaches, tribal thinking in pop culture, and ends with a simple truth: you either climb the rope or you don’t.
