Everyone is talking about the 25th Amendment.
“Fitness for office.”
Removing leaders who can no longer do the job.

But while the world is focused on the White House…
I want you to look at your house.

In this episode, we strip away the politics and apply the 25th Amendment Test to your leadership at home.

If your spouse and children were your Cabinet — and they voted based solely on your behavior, your presence, and the promises you’ve kept over the last six months — would you still hold office?

Or would they vote for a transfer of power?

We discuss:

The Clinical Symptoms of a Checked-Out Leader
Are you physically present but mentally absent?

The Vote of No Confidence
How broken promises erode your authority faster than any scandal.

Re-Earning the Office
How to campaign for your family’s trust again — using Character Over Performance.

Stop worrying about Washington.

Let’s fix the leadership crisis in your living room.

Welcome to the Jason Hewlett Show. That was a great intro, wasn't it? Actually, it's the first time I've seen it because we're creating this as we go, as we roll. And yes, you have come to the Jason Hewlett show where there are lots of F words. We're talking faith, family, fatherhood, freedom, fitness, funny, and farce. And so today we're going to be talking about many, many topics, which I know you'll find interesting. And I'm excited for you to join me in the chat, if you will. We're going to talk about the 25th Amendment and would your family vote you out? We're going to talk about He-Man and the new movie that's just dropped and it's coming out. We're going to talk about being a dad and father time, parenthood, et cetera, and of course, fitness with Cardio Miracle, the sponsor of this show. So thank you for joining us. We're going to have a great time. Sit back and have a great day with me. Yeah. Even the song. The song was made by the voice of the producer of this show. And it's not me. His name is The Handsome Chief. And you'll probably get to know him as we continue to go through this process. But I'll tell you, it is so cool to be able to have the opportunity to go live and to have you join me. And so if you're watching live, please put it in the chat where you're watching from. Things are different for me in terms of performance. I used to get to go on stage anywhere and everywhere and have the opportunity to perform in front of huge audiences. And obviously that's continued, but things have shifted over the last couple of months for me and even the last year. And I'll tell you about that in just a moment. But I appreciate anybody that's out there watching. And if you watch the replay, I would love so much to find out where you're watching as well. This is the effort is this. I want to go live and I'm making the commitment to do this on a weekly basis. This is very hard for me due to my schedule. You know, I do still travel. In fact, I'm flying to another state from where I live. I'm in Salt Lake City, Utah. I'll be flying to California tomorrow to speak to a bunch of credit union people, which I'm thrilled about getting the opportunity to do that. And uh the yesterday, in fact, I spoke to 200 leaders in the state of Utah. So I still get to be on stage, but going live on the video and on online on a stream, this is different. And I just have to be candid with you. It's intimidating compared to being on stage in front of thousands of people where I'm really comfortable. And I'm going to talk about things here that I don't necessarily talk about on stage because it's not welcome in most cases. For example, I'm going to talk about somebody who's very important to me. His name is Charlie Kirk. Now, there's a lot of people that might be tired of hearing about Charlie Kirk. He is one of my heroes. He is somebody that I admire. And maybe somebody in this audience watching or listening right now, maybe you do not like Charlie Kirk at all. That's okay. I welcome you into this space and I hope that you will listen with intention of seeing how we can find some common ground. The fact of the matter is that uh Charlie Kirk, when he was murdered, it was a horrific thing not only for uh everybody, but for for myself, because he was somebody I was I had done some events with, a wonderful uh human being, somebody I looked up to. And then uh we were gonna go on tour with Megan Kelly. And all of that changed in the sense of what do we do now? Is it safe to even go out and speak on stage? And so that's one of the other reasons I'm coming here, is to be able to talk about that. That uh he's a man of God and I appreciate that. On the other side of what's happened with the reaction to the Charlie Kirk stuff, which to me has been really sad in some respects, and in other ways, he's been honored in a great way. Then there is the tragic situation of Renee Good. I don't know Renee Good, I have never met her. I I don't uh obviously I don't think I have the same belief system as she does. And yet when I see that people were celebrating Charlie's passing, and then now they're celebrating Renee's passing or others are, I'm thinking, okay, this is messed up, right? I mean, I don't care how far left you are, how far right you are, it's not right to celebrate somebody's passing tragically. And uh while they're sticking up for what they think is what they should do. Now, for some people, you might say, well, somebody deserves it for you know standing in front of someone at a microphone and asking you to talk. And others say maybe you deserve something for getting in a car and driving at uh a federal officer. There's all kinds of reasons why people have arguments about this, and I get it. But why are we celebrating that things are happening like this in this world, that people are being murdered or that people are being celebrated for the fact that they're dying? I I'm not I'm not enjoying watching where this world is going. And so that's one of the reasons I decided to come online. I'm not a political guy, I'm just looking for truth and want to speak it and want to also say, you know, a lot of people identify me now in that MAGA sense because I got to open for Trump and other things. But let me tell you, the MAGA far right is as to me as as concerning as the very far left. And I hope that there's a way we can unify this country. I think the way to do that is through conversation, through making sure the communication stays open. If we don't communicate, if we don't reach out our hand across the aisle, then nothing's going to be happening. It's only going to continue to feel like a almost this uh psychological civil civil war, which we don't want it to fall into anything terrible. And so if you're the kind of person that is worried about why people would be celebrating either deaths of these types of people that are important to some and many, then I hope that you'll be part of this audience. Now, I'm not gonna be for everybody, that's for dang sure. I I know that there are gonna be people that are gonna say, I don't like that guy at all. And that's totally awesome. I am totally happy with wherever you're at, wherever you land, because I'm gonna talk about faith and sometimes religion. I'm gonna talk about and do comedy, I'm gonna talk about stories, I'm gonna do entertainment, and these are my weapons of choice, and it's really just to fight for truth and to spread joy. Those are my promises. And so this is episode one, and I just appreciate you taking the time to be here. I am a husband, a father, a friend, a faithful follower of Christ, and I'm a hopeful light to others. That's pretty much my intention in life. I I went on tour a couple of uh, well, let's see, when what it was it was last year and uh in 2024 now, so we're 26. Wow. 2024 election season, I went on tour with Tucker Carlson. Now, I didn't really know Tucker Carlson at all before that. I didn't know if he was a good guy, a right wing, a left wing. I thought he was just a dude with a bow tie on CNN. That's all I had heard about him in my life. And I'm embarrassed to say that because apparently he was a way bigger deal than I realized. And so I am I am thrust into the opportunity of opening for Tucker Carlson in September of 2024. Now, this changed my whole career, and not for the good. In fact, within two months, I had lost all of my work for 2025. And I've talked about this a little bit on live streams here and there. I've shared it on a stage or two, but that wasn't welcome to talk about much. But I found it interesting the divide in the country, the fact that I couldn't even open for somebody without the ramifications of doing something I thought was okay, just getting on stage and performing and making people laugh, regardless of the audience. Tucker Carlson to me was the right voice at the right time. He brought on some guests that I had never heard of before, including Charlie Kirk. And as I listened to those people, as I had for the last 20 years in showbiz, I've been very much on that left side of thinking in liberal, which is totally a great place for me to be. As I'm listening to what I'm learning with Tucker and his guests, I was uh so blasted by my peers on the left that I had to look at the right and I had to say, what's going on over on this conservative side? Uh the next thing I know, I'm supporting Donald Trump. I'm supporting Tucker Carlson and his guests. I it was a big shift for me too, just so you know. Am I thrilled every time I see what Donald Trump puts on X? No, but I felt like it was something important that I needed to do and to be on stage and uh make those people laugh, patriots across America. It was a great opportunity. And like I say, I lost pretty much all of my work. I was canceled fully by the left and the liberal side, and let me tell you who else canceled me: the right, the conservatives. You know why? Because I sang Elton John and Lady Gaga music. True story. I couldn't even get a gig with any type of audience because they said you're too far left or you're too far right. I couldn't believe it. I was like stuck in a weird place. And so for this last year, I went on tour with Megan Kelly. Megan Kelly is so powerful. She's uh, I think the most important voice in America, in my opinion. And when I listened to her every single night and I was hanging out with her backstage and learning a lot, I'll I'll tell you, it's a it's a fascinating thing to sit with somebody who has the background, the experience, the education that someone like Tucker, Carlson, and Megan Kelly have. They're not just talking heads, these are people that concern themselves with something that is so essential, and that is to truly help our country have the conversation. And yeah, they stand strong in their space and place. And I can say honestly, that some of the things that they said, I was like, whoa, that's pretty far out there, right? And so I have to also find for myself where I'm going to land and what I'm going to stand for. And as I performed on those stages with Megan, it was interesting. Let's chatter about how bad of a human I was for doing that is the Tucker show. But doing the Megan Kelly show was a great opportunity. And I'm so thankful to that group for letting me be a part of that. I just want to say that I stand for the promise. The promise to do something great in your life, in your country, with your family, for God. What's your promise? Uh, we're going to talk about that. And I'd have to say that perhaps we need to go from the side fringe area where it seems like everybody feels they need to be, like in their community of I'm only conservative or I'm only liberal. I've even had friends that are saying they're leaving our church because they don't feel welcome enough in the community. Well, I'm saying, my friends, perhaps we need to go somewhere else, perhaps we need to reach across the aisle, perhaps we need to come together. And that's part of what this show is about. Perhaps we need to come together in a place that is considered the radical middle. And something that just dropped today that was very interesting is actually a show called The Masters of the Universe. It's a it's a movie. Do you remember He-Man? I mean, I remember He-Man, I remember I have the power, you know, like hey, I'm gonna try to flip. I I saw the movie He-Man when I was a kid, and I would try to do this with my arms. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. And it was like I wanted to be muscly and amazing like that man. But I'll tell you, when as we're gonna talk about this in just a moment, there's the He-Man that all of us put forth, and then there's that Prince Adam, if you will, which is his alter ego, that we're gonna also talk about because that's more of the character-driven side of him. But before we go into that, I want to just say, I'm looking at the comments. It's crazy how many people are are are looking, are saying hello here. I appreciate you. We got Robert and uh we've got Olvin, it looks like uh Olvin Sanchez, the divide to conquer is in play. They need us divided. Yeah, I think that's that that's what's going on, right? It seems like they want us to be uh against each other. Um why is that? I don't know. It freaks me out. Um, the truth is, is that it's it's a nice thing to be able to say, I'm going to do my best in my family with my community, and I'm going to stand for what I know is truth. And so, yeah, somebody says it's easier to control. Yeah, it seems like it must be, right? Uh, I don't want to be in that place or that space. And so I appreciate everybody that's logging in. It looks like we got kindness rising here with me. We got uh we got lots of it. Get it, Hewlett. Thank you very much. Hey, we're trying to trying to do something a little bit different here. Oh man, somebody says that Kelly looks old and is dead inside. Oh man, let me tell you, Megan Kelly is uh has worked very hard to make herself look awesome. She works out, she eats right, and uh she's a very she's a very spectacular person. I I'm not gonna put up with anybody that thinks that and says some of that crazy stuff. And in my opinion, I know her, so I've gotten to hang out with her, and uh hard to hard to argue how great of a cool person she is. So I it's okay if you want to say what you want to say, that's free speech, right? But equally, uh, I can stand up for people that I feel are a friend, and I feel Megan's a friend of mine. And so let's talk about this. Let's go right into where we're at with the launch of this new movie. He-Man, Masters of the Universe. I I mean, that's not a movie I personally am excited to go see. Uh, it's not like I'm like uh, you know, waiting for this trailer to show up in my life. Like, I didn't even know about it until I was just told about it just this morning. And so the only reason we're talking about it is because of the the fact that we have to scream, I have the power, and when we talk about certain things in our lives, and sometimes we need to stand in that place, and other times we need to put it aside and say, Okay, how can I listen? How can I just be calm for a minute, have some patience? Maybe I need to be okay with the fact that, you know, other people are screaming they have the power, and we have to just sit back and watch and be calm. And other times we do have to stand up and wield our sword. And so uh let's think about he-Man for a second, his body, right? He's a he-man is an ultimate symbol of strength and performance, external power. But then there's Prince Adam, which is his alter ego, which is kind of who apparently from the trailer, right? It's who he is before he grabs a sword. It's very much like the you know, uh Clark Kent, Superman, perhaps, in that own sense. But Prince Adam is the humble, often overlooked alter ego. And in the uh in this episode today, I just want to talk about how we can see the lens of masters of the universe through character over performance. So we live in a world that tells us that we need to be like He-Man, right? Perfect, strong, performance on social media, you know, that kind of thing. And I'm I'll I'll be candid, I've fallen into that trap as well. There are lots of people that have seen my life and through the years have been like, dude, you show no fragility, you show no brokenness. And in in reality, over the last year, I've had to show more of my Prince Adam, if you will, than the He-Man part, because truth of it is, uh I haven't felt much of that he-man. And uh part of just even stepping into this space for me is a mix of both of Prince Adam and He-Man. And so when you think about Prince Adam, it's true leadership. It's when we put down the sword, we embrace who we are when no one is watching. When I think about uh when I think about what we do in the, let's say, in the off hours, let's say when the camera's off, when we're not on stage, I talk about the promise and the fact that the promise kept on stage is created by the promise kept off stage. And so if you're gonna be a great speaker, you need to become not just a great speaker, but you have to live the kind of life that would allow you to be a great speaker. I truly believe that. I mean, there are people that can do it well and they get away with it. But for most people, I think that the integrity has to be able to come from the backstage to the light. And uh when I think about that for myself, do I have the power? Is the power only wielded when I have that sword? And so here we go. We're gonna talk about something that I find interesting in the trend jacking of the news, if you will. Uh, have you seen the news though? The 25th amendment is trending again. Yeah, everyone's an expert on constitutional law all of a sudden. We've got people arguing about mental acuity, fitness for office, and whether or not we should be trying to buy Greenland again. Yeah, or whatever the latest tweet is. So it's wild. I mean, we look at our leaders, we we look at Washington and we scrutinize everything, how they walk, how they talk, if they remembered the name of the prime minister of wherever. Uh the big question is everyone is asking, is he fit to lead? And it's easy to ask that about someone else. You know, it's easy to look at the White House and say, nope, get him out. He's violating the constitution, he has no idea what he's doing. But I do want to ruin your day for a minute. I want to I want you to take the 25th amendment and bring it into your living room. Get this if your spouse and your children were your cabinet and they had to take a vote on your leadership today based on your behavior and your patience and your presence over the last six months. Would you keep your job? I mean, would you would would they look at you and say, four more years, four more years, or would they look at you and look at each other, slide a piece of paper across the table and say, Dad or mom, we're invoking the 25th. You're unfit to lead this house. I'm not talking about politics, you guys. We're talking about the only office you can't get voted out of, even if maybe it should be. So let's talk about leadership that starts at home. I I'm at home right now doing this live stream, and I'm trying to think about the cabinet meeting, how that would look, right? Your spouse is the vice president or the co-president, right? Uh, your kids are the secretaries of state, the defense or literal defense, right? And the treasury, of course, because they spend all the money. But the problem in politics is that we remove leaders for incapacity. But what does incapacity look like in a home? It's not usually medical, it's the presence in a distracted world. And I like to talk about this a lot. In fact, I'm gonna I'm gonna do a couple segments today about that. Because I want you to think about how distracted we are and mentally unfit when we're staring we're staring at our phone when our kid is trying to ask us something. I mean I I know I'm guilty of it, that's why I'm talking about it. And I mean, even just bringing up this question of are you unfit to lead in your home? To me, that's intimidating because it's almost like I'm telling the truth about what I'm concerned about for me. And so how can I be more accountable? I can talk about it. I can share with you that I'm like, hey, I'm not sure if I'm doing what I ought to be doing as a dad. Because you know what? Sometimes I get majorly distracted here. Have you ever gotten to that place where you're like, you know, uh the the the 25th amendment is this? It's when the lights are on, but nobody's home. How often is that true for us at the dinner table? Now, the solution might be what? The solution could be ban the phone from the dinner dinner table. Maybe that's it. What could it be in your opinion? How do we become more fit for the people that matter the very most? Because I bet you're keeping the promise to be fit, to be incredible when you work. Because if you didn't, you get fired. You're keeping the promise to everybody at work. What about your home? So when it comes to your house and your family and the people that matter the most, how are you going to get that uh vote of confidence back? Because in politics, right? When we break these, we lose the vote of confidence. But think about how the fact that you say, I'll be there in a minute, or uh another broken promise, yeah, we're gonna do that this weekend, and then what happens? I'm guilty of it too. What happens is we get distracted andor we forget the promises that we've made to be the greatest parent in the world or the greatest dad, in particular with me. How about yourself? Have you ever had that? Oh yeah, we're gonna go do that this weekend, and then you get distracted by all the other to-dos that happen. I think it happens all the time. So I'm not saying to be super dad or perfect mom. That's not what we're saying. But we need to be present, consistent, apologetic. Maybe even sit down and ask our family that I teach identify, clarify, magnify. Maybe you could ask your family to identify, clarify, and magnify for you and say, Hey, how am I doing? And like I say, maybe the executive order, if you will, is to ban the phone from the dinner table. The promise is to make one small promise today and to keep it. And so, would you survive the family 25th amendment?

SPEAKER_04

Hold up. Read that door. The Jason Hewlett show and get this. Lots of F words. This feels promising. Wait, what? It says this place is PG rated. I don't get it. F-words and PG don't go together. Oh, look at that. Faith, family, freedom, fatherhood. Funny and farce, huh? I can live with that. Dude, I have a good feeling about this one. This feels like a room where promises get kept.

SPEAKER_00

Talk about family. As a dad, as a father, I hope that as you're watching me, you're thinking about how you can be a better dad. And I know that when I confess that I have failed frequently, that's just a part of the gig. And I wish I was better at it. But luckily, I have a really good partner in my beautiful wife. And I'd love to share with you if I if it's all right, some of my family. And I want to share a picture with you. I think that would be fun. Here's a picture of my family. Uh, we have four kids in five years. That's what we call a Utah tradition. Yeah. And uh we we are so grateful for these children. You know, they used to be small. In fact, I was looking for a picture that I could like digitally show you of them. Look how old they are. They're they're in their teens. They're let me show you. I found that I got this picture off the wall. This is what everybody looked like a couple of years ago. Isn't that interesting? I mean, they were babies. What happened? Oh man, they grew up. Here's what I want to talk about with this group that's now this size. These are my favorite people. These are the ones that uh that are growing up. The tall guy in the blue, he is now living in Argentina. He's gone for two years. He's a missionary for our family's church that we belong to, and the beautiful girl in the front, sitting down, that's the oldest. She's our daughter, and she is in Sun Valley, Idaho, working at this ski resort. These guys are gone. Guess what? We now have two kids left. What is happening in our world? We have the uh the biggest guy and the littlest guy, and one's uh senior in high school, one's in eighth grade. Now, why why do I want to share this with you? Because I want you to realize that your family is beautiful however it looks. And I hope that as you saw my family, you're thinking about your own. And hopefully that as you're as you're listening to me, you're also thinking about what it is that you try to do to be your best. I know that when I'm not present with my family, um, I'm losing time. And I've found that now to be exponentially quicker because the kids are now leaving, right? So now that they're gone, my two oldest are gone. Now I'm thinking to myself, okay, I have to play catch up here. And so I'm making some new promises, whether it's deleting the apps off my phone that distract me, or it's just saying to my kids, we're going to make sure to create more opportunities to do more things. For example, tonight I'm going to take my oldest boy that's still at home to a basketball game. I'm excited. It's the Utah Jazz game, and they're playing the San Antonio Spurs against a guy named Victor Wimbanyama, and he is this gigantic alien type person who's like seven six. I can't wait to take him. But he said to me recently, he goes, Dad, you know my favorite thing to do with you is? I said, What? He said, Go to the gym. I said, You like going to the gym? He goes, Yeah, because we go to the gym almost every day together. When we don't, he reminds me, hey dad, what about the gym? He told me recently also, he said, you know, I've never been, I've never been on the top of a mountain. And I was like, Well, we need to get you on top of a mountain then. And I had to move a bunch of appointments and meetings out of the way in order to make that promise be kept. And it was actually hard to be able to say, okay, I I I know I won't have time this weekend, so let's take a day in the middle of the week. We actually made it to the top of what's called Grander Peak. And at the top of Grander Peak, I'll tell you, Romney was so excited, that's his name. He got to the summit and he put his arms out and he was just like, Dugamade, take my picture. And I was like, bro, I love you. I'm so proud of you. I was ecstatic that he got to the top of the mountain with me. Do we give our kids the tools that they need in order to succeed at what they want to be better at? And do we take the time in our lives and schedule? And can we? There might be some that are listening and saying, Well, I don't even have the time to do that. And I get that. But is there something that we can trade, whether it's vegging out in front of the TV and we could go to the gym with the kid, or if there's something with our phone that's just distracting us way too much, where we could say, I make a promise this year to just live better, be more with my children, and have the opportunities together. Uh recently I heard from the upstairs room a guitar being played. And I was like, Who is playing my guitar? Turns out both my boys who are still in the home were figuring out guitar. One by one, they would hand my guitar back and forth to each other. I didn't even teach them, they just started playing it. And I was like, oh man, they like the guitar. That's cool. I'm not going to force anything on them, like music or or speaking or being on stage, but they find their own gifts and talents and transition into you know these amazing people, right? And so I asked my youngest boy, Royal. I said, Hey Royal, this is Royal, he's the little guy there. I said, Hey Royal, what would be your favorite thing for your birthday? Because his birthday was coming up. He said, I want a guitar because your guitar is old and not cool enough for what I want. And I said, Okay, so we went to the guitar center. Oh yeah. And at the guitar center, it was amazing to watch him pick up an old guitar and start strumming and feeling like this is my tool, my machine. This is what I'm going to be known for. I am so impressed that he decided for himself what he wanted to become great at. And he's been practicing every single day. He actually had saved up a little bit of money because this was more than the birthday money we had put together for him to have. And so here, here he is working on his guitar. I'm just so thankful for kids that not only want to be around me, but also are expecting and hoping for the opportunity to be in our presence. You know, when they're teenagers, it's like, man, I don't want to be around dad, but they've decided that they want to be around. When it comes to this, this is the great distraction. I like to say that as easily as this can connect you to the world, it can just as quickly disconnect you from your family. And so, can we get off our phone? Can we be more present? Maybe make that promise to be more present at the dinner table, even if that's the place. Maybe we don't have time to eat dinner together. And so, can we text our kids? Can we send them some information or something motivational throughout the day? Hopefully, those are some good ways to consider the promise for ourselves. But I can tell you one thing that I teach how to discover your signature moves to every audience I speak to. What makes you unique? What are your signature moves? What makes you awesome? And I know that for a lot of fathers, they sit there wondering to themselves, I don't even know what my signature moves are as a leader. Uh at work I know what it is because that's how I get paid. But I have one idea for you today. How about we just find a place of being more present? Your fatherhood signature move could be be present. I love all those transitions, those are funny, right? It looks kind of like me and kind of like, what the heck? No, it's like uh it's AI uh generated, and so it's funny to watch. Uh, you know, I've made a living for the last many years, 25 plus years, doing comedy, music, running around the world doing things that you know most people would only dream of getting to be able to do, and in terms of opportunities and so forth. Like I said at the beginning of this program, yeah, I lost a lot of opportunities in 2025 due to what I did in 2024. When you are on the wrong stages, in the sense of somebody who's doing a booking, they're probably like, Well, we don't know if he should be on our stage, even though I'm not doing anything uh controversial on any of these stages. You see, uh, it is a G-rated experience, it's a it's never even close to R-rated. And so I almost have to laugh about it because that's just something that people have fallen into. In fact, I grew up in Utah. Utah is uh, well, lots of people have their thoughts about Utah, right? I mean, Utah's got its own. If if if I say I'm from Utah, you might be assuming that I'm a skier. I know, and I'm not I'm not a skier, but I'm my wives are, and so no, I'm just there no my wives aren't skiers, but they uh they would trip over their dress that guy he's fallen off his chair. So but here's what I I love about being from Utah is that uh, I mean, when I started doing comedy and entertainment in Utah, I could not use the word comedian because no one would hire me. They would say, if you're a comedian, you're gonna be dirty. Like that was just in their mind what they thought it would be. And so I could never say I'm a comedian. And I'm like, well, what do I say then? So it became the entertainer.

SPEAKER_07

Oh, what a world, what a world where chairs sing and men take flight.

SPEAKER_00

I keep inter uh interrupting myself with AI videos. It is such a world, and I'll tell you what's funny to me about it is like people were so worried that I was gonna do something tragically uh controversial on stage or say something that their children couldn't listen to. And so I had to craft my performance around being clean and appropriate for every single event because I was performing at churches and then county fairs and beauty pageants for kids, like weird stuff. And then as I've gone through my career, I've become more of a corporate entertainerslash keynote speaker. And so I thought it would be appropriate since it's beginning of the year. I am out here trying to find opportunities. And yeah, you might recognize some people on this next video. I hope it plays as well as the other ones we've shown so far. But this is actually what I do for a living, what people say about it. I do a show of music, comedy, and impressions mixed with inspiration, um and and thoughts and ideas as to how you can be a better leader. It all comes together in a pretty cool way. Let's let the video tell the story. It goes like this. Think about how you identify that, which makes you stand out in this world. It is your signature move, it's your voice.

SPEAKER_04

You far exceed our tricky. It was incredible. It was the best we've had.

SPEAKER_01

So they go, Daddy, did the dinosaur. I'm like, You sure you want the Velociraptor Jurassic Park kitchen scene? Are you sure you want that?

SPEAKER_05

It was hands down, the best comedy show I've ever seen.

SPEAKER_00

This is not just another keynote, it's a movement that has transformed hundreds of companies so far.

SPEAKER_01

A lot of the times it comes down to leadership, somebody seeing in you what you don't see in yourself. I call it identify, clarify, and magnify.

SPEAKER_00

What you share, whenever you show up, you can either give 100% or you can just hold back, or you can be fully present, or you can be distracted. It's your choice, it's your promise.

SPEAKER_02

In our second or third city, this guy Jason Hewlett showed up and put him on stage. He's been with us ever since.

SPEAKER_01

If we shine our light, if we share our gifts, if we're willing to go there, it will bless the world. I learned early on that the more light I shine is the light I receive.

SPEAKER_00

My friends, that's how we make moments better. Is when we share our great gifts, that which makes us unique. I like to say why set a goal when you can make a promise. That's not to say goals aren't important, because of course they are. But if you set a goal and you miss it, you just set another one. Whereas if you make a promise and break it, that's a one and done. People see what you guys have and they want it. They want to be a part of it. They believe it. What is your promise to your family? Not just those you work with, but those that are at home.

SPEAKER_01

The promise to finally do something you've been waiting to do your whole life.

SPEAKER_05

I believe the best form of connection is through laughter. And you brought that into an amazingly good message.

SPEAKER_01

You are literally cheating the world. When you don't share your signature moves, you are breaking the promise. I could naturally do this, you guys, and talk at the same time. How's that possible? And why would I share it? Because if I don't, then I'm cheating the world of that which only I can do. No one can do you like you. You're the only one with that authentic voice.

SPEAKER_03

He's probably one of the individuals in the industry that has done more events than anyone else. It's the attention to detail that he brings where he makes the stories, he makes all of the content relatable to whatever the audience is.

SPEAKER_00

This shuttle driver learned a long time ago that success is simply failing frequently. You can make a difference by keeping your leadership promise. As a top 1% speaker and one of the only few speakers who has reached the Speaker Hall of Fame, you can have the assurance that this keynote will not only keep your audience captivated and on the edge of their seat, but also leave them with actionable steps and knowing how to improve in every aspect of their lives, which ends up benefiting you and your company from every angle. That's why most of my clients end up hiring me again and again because it's worth every penny.

SPEAKER_06

When I came and saw him in person, it was so different than watching him online. He brings a spirit of inspiration when he speaks.

SPEAKER_01

I don't have I have talents you don't want, but I hope you'll share what you've got. He's gonna change and transform your audience 100%.

SPEAKER_00

Pretty cool. Thanks for watching. I love how that video turned out, and uh a lot of cool companies have brought me in for many, many years. You know, they're surprised that I can do these things with my face, and you know what's fun about this online, especially is that you don't think this is real. Uh, a lot of people figure that's just an AI type of a thing, but when you see it in real life, it's like, okay, how is that even possible? Why do I share that? Because all of us have something to offer, everybody has something that makes them unique. That is part of your promise to share it, and I think it would be amazing if we could, you know, do some work together. So let's be in touch to have me come to your next event.

SPEAKER_07

Breaking out, yeah, we found our freedom now.

SPEAKER_00

My friends, we have come to the final segment of this show, and it is yes, episode one. So thankful for you taking the time to be here. And yeah, I uh I'd love to know in the chat in the comments if you uh what you got out of this, uh, how you feel, what you'd like to see more of, uh, what you'd like me to never say again. I'm totally cool with anything that you throw at me, and uh, because we're gonna continue to improve this thing, we're gonna make it great and awesome, and I'm going to be uh I'm gonna be uniquely prepared for each one because uh I've never done anything like this, and I would like to get great at it. Uh, this I'm not great at this yet. And I hope that as you watch me say that, that it's okay for me to say that. And that gives me ultimate freedom to be able to say, I'm just gonna go for it. I'm going to rely on my team who's better and stronger at this than me, and so I can learn from them. There's there's so much we can do, and we're more like that Prince Adam than feeling we need to be He-Man. But as we wrap up, I do have to talk a little bit about the He-Man within us that I truly believe needs to show up more often. And it's because we're uh we're gonna talk a little fitness as we wrap and the sponsor of this show. Um, if you've been following me for a while, I I talk about cardiomerical quite a bit. Cardiomiracle is something that has transformed my health and my life, and I'm so thankful for it. Now, if you've never heard of cardiomerical, this is a product that is 58 plus natural ingredients. It will change the way that your health can be fixed if you have problems. Uh, whether you have blood flow issues, I don't know if you're that person that's got that medication for your blood pressure and uh and maybe you've got you know challenges with diabetes or with PTSD, depending on what you've been through. I think the whole of America has PTSD right now. Why would something like this help? Because it actually opens up more of our blood vessels to be able to get to the microcapillaries that help our brain to regenerate. The cells relax and they actually release vitamin D3 into our body as well as create the secret ingredient and why it's called a miracle. Cardiomiracle is named cardiomerical because it's a miracle for your cardiovascular system. The miracle molecule is nitric oxide. When you put something in your body that is natural, the ingredients are the main important ones in terms of creating nitric oxide are L arginine and L citrulline. When you put those into your body and the science inside your body all of a sudden ignites what's called nitric oxide. We all have it throughout our youth, but once you hit your 40s, it dissipates quickly and exponentially. That's why we we feel more aches and pains. We can't get that much uh energy going as quickly. We're cranking out energy drinks and everything else under the sun to try to fix it. I have the solution for you, and it is cardiomerical. I'm so thankful for this great company and to be a part of sharing it with you because it's changed my life. I want it to help yours too. If you've seen me in the last two years, you noticed perhaps that my body has shifted quite a bit. That means I can get in the gym, and whenever I take cardiomerical, my vasculature shifts. My VO2 max has shifted because I'm taking this and it's oxygenating my blood, it's helping me to be able to get to the top of a mountain or to work out harder. And then equally on the other side of a workout, I can then have faster recovery. So I can do it again tomorrow. Now, here's all cardiomerical is if I take a cup of water in my hand and I just simply throw a little cardiomerical in there. Sometimes you can get it as a single stick pack. It comes in these little six packs or 30 packs. We've got even 180 packs. It's pretty cool. I thought I'd share with you how you take cardiomerical. All you do is you grab a scoop, yeah, you put it in the drink, and then you start to stir it up as it makes a great drink that's going to improve your health, change your life. And yes, even though this is a G-rated show, gentlemen, this will help you in the bedroom as well. Guess what? That's a good thing. So this is Cardio Miracle, it stirs up in a drink, it's awesome. Delicious. I drink it multiple times per day. I invite you to check it out. If you were to go to Cardiomiracle.com, well, if you also, hey, if you want a deal, I've got a deal for you.
