  • #835 When They Call You a Bust: How the 17th round MLB Draft Pick Came Back
    Jun 14 2025
    We all love great comeback stories. This is one …but not in the way you think.

    Matt Antonelli was the 17th pick in the first round of the 2006 MLB draft by the San Diego . By the 2008 season, he was a top-50 prospect in baseball. But he only played 21 games in the MLB and by 2013 his professional baseball career was over. Matt says “ I’ve been called a bust so many times, I stopped caring a long time ago.” He is now a coach and business owner.

    His hardest moment was the year hemade my big league debut. He was a top prospect in the Padres’ organization going into the 2008 season. Matt began the season in Triple A and, for the first time in his life, he was horrible. He forgot how to hit and had no idea how to fix it.

    We discussed:
    1. His first big league hit against Gred Maddux.
    2. The hard moments teach you what the easy ones never could.
    3. Your identity must be bigger than your achievements. Why so many business owners think they are their business.
    4. Sometimes the greatest growth comes after letting go.
    5. What feels like a loss can actually be relief in disguise.

  • #834 Why Great Ideas Are Not Enough to Build a Successful Startup
    Jun 8 2025
    Segment 1 starts at 0:00 with Julia Austin.

    When I was an angel investor, people always used to say to me that "I have a great idea for a business, what do you think?" I would reply- "I have no idea" Successful businesses are not about ideas- they are about the execution of that idea.

    Julia Austin is a seasoned operator who has served in leadership roles at several technology startups. She is on the faculty at Harvard Business School and is faculty cochair of the Arthur Rock Center for Entrepreneurship. As a certified executive coach, Austin works exclusively with startup founders. She is an angel investor, serves on startup boards, and advises many founders through her work with several accelerators. Her new book is "After the IDEA: What It Really Takes to Create and Scale a Startup".

    Segment 2 starts at 18:19 with Chris Berdik.

    I have always been very sensitive to loud noise in my work and personal environment- what effect does noise have on a person’s ability to be productive or just relax?

    Chris Berdik is a journalist who writes about science, health, technology, and education, including two books, - the latest is "Clamor: How Noise Took Over the World--And How We Can Take It Back". Previously, he was a staff editor at the Atlantic Monthly, a research editor at the investigative-journalism magazine, Mother Jones, and a senior writer covering science and medicine for Boston University's daily news website and alumni magazine, Bostonia

  • #833 Grifting and Growth: Uncovering the Psychology Behind Business Deception
    May 31 2025
    Segment 1 with Jerry Jamison starts at 0:00.

    In business, I have always been a sucker for a good grifter story- how people do it, why they do it and why people believe them in a game that relies on winning someone's confidence.

    Over a span of 39 years, 23 aliases, 28 arrests in 20 cities, and nearly a dozen imprisonments, Robert Spears had lived a con artists' life of unparalleled adventure and intrigue.. Shortly before Thanksgiving Day in 1959, a plane exploded in mid-air, killing all 42 passengers and crew and leaving scattered debris and bodies across the otherwise tranquil Gulf waters. Listed on the manifest was Dr. Robert Spears—once the highly regarded president of the Texas Naturopathic Association. Father of two small children with a lovely, society-minded wife and an elegant home in an exclusive neighborhood, it was a monumental tragedy for them as it was for all the souls lost that day.

    Less than two months later, Robert Spears miraculously “rose from the dead” in Phoenix where he was promptly arrested.

    Jerry Jamison is an award-winning advertising copywriter with more than thirty national writing commendations during his career. Following his years as a copywriter, Jamison turned to a career as a novelist, generating more than 30 books in a wide range of genres. Jamison has been the recipient of numerous national awards during his career including a national commendation, alongside Senator Edward Kennedy, for his service to underserved communities. He has a new book out called "Vanishing Act: A Crashed Airliner, Faked Death, and Backroom Abortions".

    Segment 2 with Dr. Rebecca Homkes starts at 17:06.

    How do you need to change your leadership style during uncertain times like we are living in now?

    Dr. Rebecca Homkes is a high-growth strategy specialist and CEO and executive advisor. She is a Lecturer at the London Business School, Faculty at Duke Corporate Executive Education, Advisor and Core Faculty for BCGU (Boston Consulting Group), and a former fellow at the London School of Economics Centre for Economic Performance-the author of "Survive, Reset, Thrive: Leading Breakthrough Growth Strategy in Volatile Times".
