Most people don't fail because they aren't talented… They fail because they're loyal to the numbers instead of the mission. In this episode, I break down why chasing followers, likes, and quick results will keep you stuck—and how shifting your focus to a deeper purpose is what actually keeps you going long enough to win. I share my own experiences from: Posting for years without blowing up My 10+ year dunk journey Navigating a long and unpredictable healing process Because the truth is… real progress doesn't happen overnight. It happens in the unseen reps. The low-view posts. The days where it feels like nothing is working. We also dive into: Why you need to budget for bad days instead of expecting perfection The power of building systems over viral moments How “delusional confidence” can actually be your biggest advantage Your job isn't the timeline. Your job is the work. ____ ____ Link to Buy my Book "Fight Through It” as well as 100% Organic Motivational T-Shirts and contact info… www.jaredryanweiss.com Check out our affiliate links to some great nutritional products that we believe in down below: Vitagenics Courses https://vitagenics.teachable.com/?affcode=392642_nvq9zepk&fbclid=IwAR3ETJTvomso4qZPiTSVoi47DpyVvejn910VmuttE1DAcX7VRZxeq6ZnMns Zeolite and Fulvic Acid Detox-Touchstone Essentials https://jaredandjames.thegoodinside.com EMF Rocks emfrocks.com/JAREDWEISS817 Use Code JAREDWEISS817 athleticism.com/ATHLETICISM-47 _______ _______ Also, just to remind you guys (you can find more in our about section and on my (Jared's) instagram), Jared has been healing from a life threatening illness and currently is healing from severe digestive and neurological and speech issues.

In today's Rabbit Hole Roundup 119, I'm leaning heavily into movies with a splash of sports as baseball season and the NBA playoffs are heating up. I start with a personal top 5 list of the greatest baseball movies of all time — from childhood classics. Each one brings something different to the game and the culture of baseball storytelling. Then I dive into my first-time watch of the Mission: Impossible series starring Tom Cruise — breaking down why watching them out of order actually made the experience better, the evolution of the action, and why Rogue Nation stood out as my favorite. After that, I review a surprisingly underrated rom-com How Do You Know, starring Reese Witherspoon, Paul Rudd, Owen Wilson, and Jack Nicholson, and explain why it felt more real than most modern romantic comedies. Finally, I close with a full sports rundown: NBA Playoffs opening storylines (Lakers, Spurs, Nuggets, Thunder, Knicks, Celtics, etc.) MLB updates including the Mets' major slump, Yankees heating up, and standout performances from stars like Aaron Judge, Yordan Alvarez, Mike Trout, Shohei Ohtani, and Mason Miller.

What happens when the version of you that created your biggest success… no longer feels like you? In this episode, I dive into Mike Posner's powerful decision to revisit his hit song I Took a Pill in Ibiza and transform it into I Went Back to Ibiza — not just as an artist, but as a person. This isn't just about music. It's about identity. Growth. And the realization that you're allowed to evolve without rejecting your past. I also open up about my own journey — from writing Fight Through It, to redefining my relationship with success, ego, and even basketball. Because sometimes the hardest part of growth isn't changing… it's letting go of who we thought we had to be. I talk about: Why your past self isn't wrong — just outdated The truth about ego (and why it's not the enemy) “Fake enlightenment” vs real self-awareness Relearning how to compete… without losing yourself And why it's never too late to rewrite your story Tune in now… ____ ____ Link to Buy my Book "Fight Through It” as well as 100% Organic Motivational T-Shirts and contact info… www.jaredryanweiss.com Check out our affiliate links to some great nutritional products that we believe in down below: Vitagenics Courses https://vitagenics.teachable.com/?affcode=392642_nvq9zepk&fbclid=IwAR3ETJTvomso4qZPiTSVoi47DpyVvejn910VmuttE1DAcX7VRZxeq6ZnMns Zeolite and Fulvic Acid Detox-Touchstone Essentials https://jaredandjames.thegoodinside.com EMF Rocks emfrocks.com/JAREDWEISS817 Use Code JAREDWEISS817 athleticism.com/ATHLETICISM-47 _______ _______ Also, just to remind you guys (you can find more in our about section and on my (Jared's) instagram), Jared has been healing from a life threatening illness and currently is healing from severe digestive and neurological and speech issues.

In today's Rabbit Hole Roundup, I'm diving straight into nostalgia with a fun one—Patrick Star's 10 best moments from SpongeBob SquarePants. If you grew up in the late 90s and 2000s, you already know… Patrick's timing and delivery are undefeated. From “Is mayonnaise an instrument?” to “That's not my wallet,” we're breaking down some of the funniest moments in cartoon history. Next, I review Freakier Friday (spoilers ahead). Does it live up to the original starring Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis? I break down the nostalgia, the new direction, and whether this sequel actually delivers. After that, I get into a powerful message from Sam Demma about staying true to your values—and why chasing short-term validation will always cost you in the long run. As a creator, this is something I've experienced firsthand. I then react to a clip from Joel Madden's Artist Friendly podcast featuring Marc Roberge, talking about how dreams seem unrealistic… until they become reality. And finally, I wrap things up with this week's sports recap: NBA Playoff + Play-In predictions (including LeBron James and the Lakers outlook) Eastern & Western Conference breakdowns Early MLB struggles for the Mets & Yankees Tune in now… ____ ____ Link to Buy my Book "Fight Through It” as well as 100% Organic Motivational T-Shirts and contact info… www.jaredryanweiss.com Check out our affiliate links to some great nutritional products that we believe in down below: Vitagenics Courses https://vitagenics.teachable.com/?affcode=392642_nvq9zepk&fbclid=IwAR3ETJTvomso4qZPiTSVoi47DpyVvejn910VmuttE1DAcX7VRZxeq6ZnMns Zeolite and Fulvic Acid Detox-Touchstone Essentials https://jaredandjames.thegoodinside.com EMF Rocks emfrocks.com/JAREDWEISS817 Use Code JAREDWEISS817 athleticism.com/ATHLETICISM-47 _______ _______ Also, just to remind you guys (you can find more in our about section and on my (Jared's) instagram), Jared has been healing from a life threatening illness and currently is healing from severe digestive and neurological and speech issues.

Back in college, during one of the hardest chapters of my life, I discovered a song that quietly shaped my entire mindset: Float On by Modest Mouse. The message is simple — even when life gets heavy… we'll all float on. In today's new episode, I break down the deeper meaning behind the song and how I apply it to real life — from healing through a life-threatening illness, to navigating the highs and lows of content creation, to handling everyday setbacks with perspective. I talk about: • Why “float on” isn't passive — it's powerful • How to handle highs and lows with grace • Why everything can serve a purpose (even when it hurts) • The 3-step reset: Feel it. Zoom out. Find one win. • Why most moments aren't the end of the world — even if they feel like it Life isn't easy. There are real struggles. But most setbacks aren't permanent — they're temporary chapters. If you're going through something heavy right now, this episode is your reminder: Good news is on the way.

Ever heard an iconic movie song… and then realized it doesn't exist on Spotify? Yeah—there's some great ones out there! In Rabbit Hole Roundup 117, I kick things off with a nostalgic Top 5 of the best unreleased movie songs—from Jimmy Neutron to Shark Tale, these tracks had no business going this hard without an official release. Then I shift into mindset, breaking down a powerful clip from J. Cole on Carmelo Anthony's podcast, where he explains the “Can I?” mentality—and how Stephen Curry inspired his belief that anything is possible. From there, I get into spirituality with insights inspired by Vex King—challenging the idea that there's only one path to God or personal growth. I also dive into wisdom from Chris Bosh on why writing things down can completely change your life—turning thoughts into action. And of course, I wrap with a packed sports recap: -March Madness Final Four and Michigan beating UCONN in the finals reaction -NBA injuries, MVP race, ROTY talk and vintage LeBron James is back! - MLB performances including Shohei Ohtani Jo Adell and Yankees and Mets Tune in now… ____ ____ Link to Buy my Book "Fight Through It” as well as 100% Organic Motivational T-Shirts and contact info… www.jaredryanweiss.com Check out our affiliate links to some great nutritional products that we believe in down below: Vitagenics Courses https://vitagenics.teachable.com/?affcode=392642_nvq9zepk&fbclid=IwAR3ETJTvomso4qZPiTSVoi47DpyVvejn910VmuttE1DAcX7VRZxeq6ZnMns Zeolite and Fulvic Acid Detox-Touchstone Essentials https://jaredandjames.thegoodinside.com EMF Rocks emfrocks.com/JAREDWEISS817 Use Code JAREDWEISS817 athleticism.com/ATHLETICISM-47 _______ _______ Also, just to remind you guys (you can find more in our about section and on my (Jared's) instagram), Jared has been healing from a life threatening illness and currently is healing from severe digestive and neurological and speech issues.

Ever feel like everyone else is getting chosen before you? The relationship.The job.The viral moment.The starting spot. And you're sitting there wondering… is it me? In this episode of Jared & James, I break down why not being chosen first doesn't mean you're not valuable — it might actually mean you're underrated. I talk about: Why being overlooked can be a sign of uniqueness Why “getting picked first” isn't always a flex The truth about viral success vs real value Timing, alignment, and being built for something better Why we're often our own harshest critics And how to start choosing yourself first From basketball runs to content creation to relationships, this is for the people who feel unseen… but know deep down they're different. Maybe you're not behind. Maybe you're just early.

This week's Rabbit Hole Roundup dives into some of the most powerful mindset shifts you can make—along with a wild sports recap to close things out. I start with Vex King and a perspective that challenges one of the most common beliefs about growth: it's not trauma that makes you stronger—it's how you respond to it. From there, J. Cole breaks down why restraint matters more than reaction, and how learning to “let them” can completely change your mindset. Next, Khloé Kardashian offers a surprisingly powerful reframe on jealousy—turning it from something toxic into something that can actually fuel your growth. Then we go deeper into the rabbit hole with a conversation about success, conspiracy culture, and why believing “all success is evil” can quietly hold you back. To wrap things up, I have a loaded sports recap: March Madness chaos, including a wild UCONN Duke game MLB opening week reactions And the NBA heating up as Victor Wembanyama surges in the MVP race while Luka Dončić makes his case Tune in now… ____ ____ Link to Buy my Book "Fight Through It” as well as 100% Organic Motivational T-Shirts and contact info… www.jaredryanweiss.com Check out our affiliate links to some great nutritional products that we believe in down below: Vitagenics Courses https://vitagenics.teachable.com/?affcode=392642_nvq9zepk&fbclid=IwAR3ETJTvomso4qZPiTSVoi47DpyVvejn910VmuttE1DAcX7VRZxeq6ZnMns Zeolite and Fulvic Acid Detox-Touchstone Essentials https://jaredandjames.thegoodinside.com EMF Rocks emfrocks.com/JAREDWEISS817 Use Code JAREDWEISS817 athleticism.com/ATHLETICISM-47 _______ _______ Also, just to remind you guys (you can find more in our about section and on my (Jared's) instagram), Jared has been healing from a life threatening illness and currently is healing from severe digestive and neurological and speech issues.
