Getting Started 2.6 - Limitations

Brother Jack’s Soapbox ·

2020/04/30

This is the last episode in our second Getting Started series. During this series I talked about all of the limitations that I encounter when I am starting a new project. I made this series to help me prioritize the creative work that is the most important. I think the biggest thing I’ve learned through this process is that limitations are essential. Even if they are artificial or self-inflicted, I need limitations. Self imposed rules force me to focus on the most important part. I hope this helps

This episode is another installment of our Brother Jack Can’t Shut Up series. In this episode, I go on and on and on about leftovers.

Mr Malarkey’s Snakes

Brother Jack’s Soapbox ·

2020/03/19

This one is a Malarkey story. It’s about a confrontation between Mr Malarkey and the legendary Saint Patrick. I’m talking about the honest to goodness, religious superhero. Saint Patrick brought Christianity to all the old Druids. That was a tall task and here we have an equally tall tale about Mr Malarkey’s chickens and some dirty old snakes.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/brother-jacks-soapbox/donations

Who Is Mr Malarkey?

Brother Jack’s Soapbox ·

2020/03/05

The word malarkey means nonsense or meaningless talk. I resemble that. I think we all have alter egos or personas that we embody to help us accomplish certain things. Mr Malarkey helps me be a better entertainer. It’s not acting or fake. It’s an amplification of a distinct part of myself. I want to be a good storyteller. Mr Malarkey helps me tell better stories.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/brother-jacks-soapbox/donations

2020/02/27

We all have fears. They can be paralyzing. If we allow it, they will consume us and take over. The only way to conquer the fear is to start moving. Stop thinking about it and start moving. Just keep moving.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/brother-jacks-soapbox/donations

Brother Jack Can’t Shut Up about Heroic Stupidity

Brother Jack’s Soapbox ·

2020/02/20

This is another installment of our Brother Jack Can’t Shut Up series. Listen, as I go on and on and on about my inability to quit. It’s not a noble character. It’s not genius, boldness, or braveness. Most people have a switch inside that makes them stop when facing devastating failure. I don’t have that switch. If I get an idea, regardless of how impractical or ridiculous, I just keep going. It’s not perseverance. It’s heroic stupidity. This episode is all about a song called Sacrament of Coffee

2020/02/13

This episode is from our series where I pick a topic and talk on and on and on about that topic. We call it Brother Jack Can’t Shut Up. It seems like an appropriate title. This installment is all about Valentine’s Day. We talk about candy hearts, school parties, beekeeping, murderous mobsters, and the brief period of time that Uncle Leroy spent sober. Grab some honey, it’s Valentine’s Day.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/brother-jacks-soapbox/donations

Getting Started 2.4 - If You Can’t Be Good, Be...

Brother Jack’s Soapbox ·

2020/02/06

Training should never be a barrier to entry at this point in history. It’s not hard to learn something new. Although, is it nessecary to become an expert at your new skill? I think it’s more beneficial to learn a lot of skills than to master one thing. The truth is that I hate to practice. I’ve found that being a little bit weird makes up for not practicing. If you can’t be good, be interesting.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/brother-jacks-soapbox/donations

Does anybody ever get to the end of the road and complain about having too much time? Does anybody ever say, “I wish my life had been shorter?” Is anybody ever satisfied with the number of seconds they spent on this earth? How are you spending your time today?

Getting Started 2.2 - There’s Never Enough Money

Brother Jack’s Soapbox ·

2020/01/23

I started this series to address all of the limitations I encounter when I am starting something new. Today we are talking about money. It doesn’t matter how much you plan ahead and prepare, there is never enough money to do everything you want to do. I guess the key is knowing when something is good enough. Good enough usually happens around the time I ran out of money. Let’s get started.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/brother-jacks-soapbox/donations

Brother Jack’s Soapbox ·

2020/01/16

This is the first episode in our new Getting Started series. It's all about the limitations that I encounter when I am starting something new. The first issue we tackle is the paralyzing abundance of choice that shows up when making important decisions.

Everything that I attempt to do always begins with a failure. Sometimes they are more epic than others. Sometimes it requires many approaches before I figure it out. If it is worth doing, I figure it out, eventually. I am starting a new series to showcase my failures. Yes, this might be a bad idea. If it all goes poorly, I can do an episode about how I failed while trying to make a show about failing.

2019/12/19

Pick a holiday, any holiday. It’s a gamble, brothers and sisters. This whole time of year involves taking some chances. Pick your favorite tradition and see how it turns out. The only guarantee is that the store will run out of eggnog three days before Christmas and you will be out of luck until next year. Happy holidays from Brother Jack. Here’s hoping it is reasonably uneventful.Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/brother-jacks-soapbox/donations

This episode is another installment in our “Brother Jack Can’t Shut Up” series. I love doing these videos. It’s probably because I can’t shut up.

Every lifelong tradition starts with the first time. This is the first year you listened to Brother Jack’s Thanksgiving special. I am sure we will tweak it over the years and it will change and adapt. But 20 years from now, you will be sitting on the couch in your stretchy pants with your belly protruding from the second piece of pumpkin pie and you will have the family gathered around to listen to Brother Jack tell you everything he knows about Thanksgiving.
