Once a Raider.. always a Raider… this past weekend, I now have two STA Raider Alums… Proud Dad moment seeing Mia graduate from the STA and now she will be enrolling in Cornelius’ University- Vanderbilt University

Last day of School at Saint Thomas Aquinas for the Future Commodore…

Time really does fly.. all you have to do is look at how fast our children grow up.

My daughters both started at Fox Trail Elementary… one of Millie’s friends sold her on Broward County Public Schools. After a couple years Lauren and Mia became a product of the Archdiocese of Miami. I always wanted my daughters to both have a Catholic School education and a relationship with Jesus Christ.

From Saint David’s to STA… all the checks went through to the Archdiocese of Miami..

Just a couple months away from Nashville and yelling Anchor ⚓️ Down.. Cornelius Vanderbilt would be proud of Mia.. I know Millie and I are both super proud of all her hard work. From being the Salutatorian at St David’s to graduating STA with a 5.3.. she had to correct me when I said it was a 5.0

Happy Mother’s Day to all the amazing women out there.. It’s the hardest job around.. no days off and it’s 24/7.. Most women are their own worst critics and yes you have made mistakes.. you are human and only one person has ever walked on water.. You have all done great and remember you aren’t Joan Crawford- No More Wire Hangers. you are not Susan Smith or Casey Anthony.. so overall an amazing job.

A huge shout out to Millie Medrano.. the mother of my two favorite people on earth (even dedicated a book to them). Lauren (the Legacy) Mia (the only person I would storm the field with after an LSU loss)

My grandma.. 97 years old had to raise her unofficial 6th kid while my mom went to school at FIU and worked full time (AT&T)

My mom - who at the age of 20 became a mom and went to school and work full time and then took on two jobs to pay out of state tuition - to THE Flagship School.. and definition of doing whatever it takes to provide for us a better life.

What if it did work?

250 episodes later… I still ask myself that question every single day.

Truly an amazing show. Yes, I’m biased… but hey, it’s MY show.

250 episodes.No weeks off.No “season break.”No disappearing into the social media witness protection program.

Just showing up week after week after week. Kind of like life itself… it keeps going and going.

What’s wild is remembering the beginning.

Having to beg friends to come on the show.Texting people directly: “Please listen.”Sliding into DMs like a desperate telemarketer with Wi-Fi.

Now?

Authors. Entrepreneurs. Millionaires. Successful people from all over the world wanting to be guests on a podcast hosted by a socially awkward dude from South Florida who just decided to keep pressing record.

Not bad.

And trust me, there were PLENTY of moments I wanted to quit. If I had a dollar for every time I thought about ending the podcast, I probably could’ve opened five more Smoothie Kings by now.

But that’s the thing about consistency…

Most people quit before momentum finally introduces itself.

To quote the Beastie Boys:

“What you see is what you get and you haven’t seen nothing yet…”

Thank you to every listener, every guest, every supporter, every person who shared an episode, tagged a friend, or believed in this crazy idea before it looked “successful.”

The journey keeps going.

No hashtags needed…. Just reflecting
And maybe… just maybe…

What if it DID work?

The Oaks Annual Coaches Reception was going on at the same time as Mia’s STA Senior Honors banquet.

Couldn’t be at two places at the same time. I was supposed to Geaux with the Legacy.. instead she went with one of her sisters..

I get asked if Lauren likes Geauxing to LSU? Sorta like asking me when she was in high school if I wanted her to enroll at the Flagship School. Like Tanger in Poltergeist- I don’t like answering stupid questions.

Picks with the General… Will Wade

Lane Train- Lane Kiffin- Father of social media influencer Landry Kiffin

And Mike the Tiger.. not the real Mike the Tiger.. he doesn’t like to go inside Tiger Stadium much less go on Road Trips.. plus he might make a mess

No word if Samantha is doing fine…
Sweet Baton Rouge

Forever LSU

The future Commodore .. things winding down at THE STA… Graduating with a 5.0 (I’m like Vanilla Ice closet I got was driving one) Magna Cum Laude.. an amazing public speaker.. our family has two TedX speakers.. I way prefer her’s over mine. Super Proud Dad moment.

Like what the Legacy always says- she’s just made for greater things than the Flagship School..

So when people ask if I’m disappointed about her not Geauxing to LSU… I’m like my Baby is going to Vanderbilt.

Happy Birthday to Raul Salty Dog Zamora.. met him in home room over 40 years ago… somewhat my voice of reason. Steve Miller sings about him, no one calls him Maurice nor does he speak the pompatus of love.. but he is a midnight toker… totally old school.. we went to Glades Jr and Southwest High together… Miami Dade Public School system taught us the word that rhymes with Rick (don’t want to get banned for hate). Our science teacher Mr Mayock - taught us the word when he yelled out a couple times to shut up you Rick..

Here’s to another 30 years of watching 311… Dirty Heads.. Slightly Stoopid and Collie Buddz

Happy Birthday to my grandma who turns 97 today… drove all the way to Westchester to celebrate and will be back on Sunday with the future Commodore..

My grandma had five children .. unofficially a sixth with me.. while my mom worked full time and went to FIU full time to give us a better life (and be able to afford out of state tuition at LSU)

Truly thankful and blessed that my grandparents are still alive and get the opportunity of getting to know and see my two daughters grow up to be adults.

Spent the past couple days with the Legacy (some wonder why I call her that… it’s on her application - her dad is an alum).. we got to help raise NIL money for our favorite school… THE Flagship… my opinion - best school in the country..

She was telling me the story (I met some of her ADPi sisters) - they are fascinated on my stories of yore - BS.. Before Saban.
They asked her if it bothered me that I didn’t have a son.. her response is - I’m way better.. I look like him.. I’m left handed.. same personality… I’m athletic.. I am Geauxing to LSU.. I’m Greek.. I love LSU football, men’s basketball and baseball.. I am way better than any son he could have gotten…
lol.. I was like.. damn and not only is she right.. but she can also sell too..

Then she said besides dad if you had a son he would be short.. bald (Millie’s dad) and would have zero athletic ability… I couldn’t argue on that point..

LSU just different

And Lauren and I love purple and live gold
