Welcome to episode forty-seven of David & Stu… Unhinged! As always, we'd like to thank Clara Wang for creating the fantastic artwork for this podcast. In this episode, David and Stu cover the following:1) The recent Ukrainian drone assault on Russia and the impact it had, as well as a discussion on how it probably won't dissuade Putin from continuing this war, but the nature of this attack has the potential to impact future conflicts and how they are executed.2) Elon Musk has left DOGE and is putting his efforts into populating Mars. His management of DOGE was highly unsuccessful and didn't come close to meeting the savings he promised. We also discuss new reports of his extensive drug use and erratic behavior.3) We revisit the topic of the Tulsa massacre and how the new Mayor has established a Trust which will accept funds to address the damage and death caused by this tragedy. In doing this, the Mayor refused to label this as "reparations."4) We end with a discussion of Patti LuPone's interview with the New Yorker magazine, where she trashed other Broadway stars with whom she has had prior disagreements, which caused an onslaught of criticism. Patti's behavior establishes that she is not really a Diva, but more of a bitter old bitch.We welcome comments on our podcasts, which can be left on our website or any other platform you may be tuning in on.Connect with David & Stu:Email David & Stu: [email protected] and share your comments, concerns, and questions.Visit our website (https://www.rageworksnetwork.com/show/david-stu-unhinged/) and please leave comments for our consideration.

On this episode, we acknowledge Clara's 26th birthday, the young woman who designed the artwork for this podcast as well as some comments about previous episodes from our audience, some of whom gave us an earful once again about the use of the "r" word and it isn't woke to be offended by this "ugly" terminology. In addition, we will cover the following topics:1) A few anecdotes about ships crashing as well as some ingenious ship designs that Stu observed sitting on a bench in Red Hook, Brooklyn, home to IKEA. Of course, the ship was designed by an Italian.2) An Italian crypto millionaire, Michael Valentino Teofrasto Carturan, was kidnapped and tortured in a Soho Townhouse by other crypto bros, John Woeltz and William Duplesse, who wanted him to give up his passcodes for his crypto accounts. This story is a reflection of some of the shady characters involved in crypto, most notably the Trump family.3) The tragic death of a promising 18-year-old woman, Ava Moore, in a boating accident where two illegal Venezuelan immigrants crashed into her Kayak with a jet ski in a Texas lake and caused her fatal head injury.4) Trump's pardons of tax cheats and fraudsters, Paul Walczak and reality stars Todd and Julie Christy. It is truly appalling how Trump has abused his right to pardon in exchange for cash or fealty. His antics are so unethical he makes the rapist Bill Clinton look like a boy scout and clearly reinforced the need to consider means to limit the President's right to pardon.We welcome comments on our podcasts, which can be left on our website or any other platform you may be tuning in on.Connect with David & Stu: Email David & Stu: [email protected] and share your comments, concerns, and questions.We encourage all to visit our website (https://www.rageworksnetwork.com/show/david-stu-unhinged/) and please leave comments for our consideration.

45: Dirty Old Men, Biden's Prostate, Prison Break, & Handy Andy's and the Weiner's ReturnWelcome to episode forty-five of David & Stu… Unhinged! As always, we'd like to thank Clara Wang for creating the fantastic artwork for this podcast. In this episode, David and Stu cover the following:1) The May-December romances of David Geffen and Bill Belichick with companions 50 years younger. In Geffen's case, his relationship with his 32-year-old husband ended tragically in divorce, while Belichick's romance with a 24-year-old woman who he met "online" is blossoming like spring flowers.2) Biden's very convenient announcement that he has been diagnosed with Stage 4 prostate cancer that has metastasized to his bones and how it was merely announced now to create sympathy and distraction from all the reports about his declining physical and mental state while President including how his aides thought he may need a wheelchair during a possible second term.3) Authorities discovered the prison break that occurred in New Orleans by ten violent felons a day after their escape. This was a spectacular failure of the prison authorities, who apparently don't need liberal bail reform like we have in New York, which emptied the jails of violent criminals who terrorize New Yorkers.4) The NYC Mayoral Primary and the potential return of Handy Andy Cuomo, whose record as governor was nothing short of disastrous, most notably his COVID policies that resulted in the death of scores of elderly in nursing homes. We also discuss the other candidates, including progressive Zohran Mamdani, who refused to support a resolution acknowledging Holocaust Memorial Day. Another pervert, like Andy, is also attempting a comeback and is running for city council: Anthony Weiner, who sent pictures of his weiner to underage girls and ended up in jail.We welcome comments on our podcasts, which can be left on our website or any other platform you may be tuning in on.Connect with David & Stu:Email David & Stu: [email protected] and share your comments, concerns, and questions.We encourage all to visit our website (https://www.rageworksnetwork.com/show/david-stu-unhinged/) and please leave comments for our consideration.

Trump's and Bernie's Jet Quagmire, Met Gala Gaucheness, & Baseball DreamsWelcome to episode forty-four of David & Stu… Unhinged! As always, we'd like to thank Clara Wang for creating the fantastic artwork for this podcast. In this episode, David and Stu cover the following:1) A discussion of some notable achievements of two loathsome individuals, Robert F. Kennedy's attempt to eliminate dyes from our food and tackle the obesity epidemic and Trump's deal-making that may benefit the U.S. economy. Unfortunately, Trump undermines the little positive achievements of his Presidency by accepting a lavish plane from Qatar to replace Air Force One as a gift, further highlighting his lack of ethics.2) Bernie Sanders has been crisscrossing the country campaigning against Oligarchs with AOC flying in a private jet, which exposes what a fraudulent hypocrite he is as he spews carbon emissions into the atmosphere while pontificating his antiquated socialist views.3) The 2025 Met Gala was a gauche and garish spectacle of bad taste organized by the loathsome Anna Wintour, Editor-in-Chief of Vogue, who has promoted elitism, racism, and eating disorders. The entire event is a disgrace, and Ms. Wintour deserves a long overdue cancellation.4) A story of a baseball underdog, JC Escarra, who made it onto the Yankees at age 30 through persistence and grit. This uplifting story is at least one example of some positivity in a very dark period of American history.We welcome comments on our podcasts, which can be left on our website or any other platform you may be tuning in on.Connect with David & Stu:Email David & Stu: [email protected] and share your comments, concerns, and questions.We encourage all to visit our website (https://www.rageworksnetwork.com/show/david-stu-unhinged/) and please leave comments for our consideration.

In this episode, Adam and Tom dive deep into the fogginess that entrepreneurs experience when they lose clarity in their businesses. They explore how to clear that fog not with Benadryl, but with truth, intention, and aligned action. The conversation is a powerful reflection on the importance of letting go of excuses, embracing reality, and fully stepping into who you are right now, rather than waiting for the “perfect moment.”🔑 Key Takeaways🌫️ 1. Business Allergies and the Fog of ConfusionJust like seasonal allergies, entrepreneurs often go through “foggy” seasons in business.Lack of clarity stems from resistance to change or trying to force solutions that don’t fit.The remedy? A dose of honest reflection and intentional action, not more noise or tactics.🧭 2. Submit to Your RealitySuccess lies in recognizing what actually works for you, not what’s trending or “supposed to work.”Adam shares their journey of discovering that relationship-building, not advertising, is their strength.For many relationship-style businesses (like coaching or consulting), personal connection is the foundation, not flashy marketing.❌ 3. Stop Making ExcusesExcuses become self-imposed obstacles. The more you repeat them, the more you believe them.Instead of blaming external conditions, face the reality: if something isn’t working, fix it or change it.Tom emphasizes that success requires iteration, not perfection.🔁 4. Shift From Have-Do-Be → Be-Do-HaveCommon mindset trap: “Once I have money, I’ll do more work, and then I’ll be successful.”New approach: “Be the productive, helpful person now, do the work, and you will have the results.”Flip the script — identity first, then action, then outcomes.🔥 5. Be the Coach — Even Without the ClientWaiting for sales before stepping into your role keeps you stuck.Don’t wait to be the coach, creator, or service provider — start being it now.Genuinely help people first; the business will follow naturally.🧠 6. Set the Right Intention Based on Who You AreIntentions change based on the role you choose to embody: coach vs. salesperson.Focus on the main thing you want to be, even if you wear multiple hats.Your roles should serve your purpose — not distract from it.🌟 7. Live and Express Your PurposeTom shares how his life purpose (helping others live better lives) has stayed consistent, even as his roles have changed.Purpose fuels intention, and intention drives results.When you veer away from your purpose, you lose energy and clarity.💬 Quote of the Episode“Be your purpose. Because if you be your purpose, you will be the intention. You will be the result of everything that you're trying to do.” – Tom🔄 Next Steps for ListenersReflect: What role are you trying to be in your business right now?Identify: What excuses are keeping you stuck?Act: Choose one way you can be the person you want to become — today.
