Foluvvet: Recent Episodes
Nathan Schooley
Two dudes who are full of good, entertaining, uplifting, inspiring and many other things considered “it” discussing a variety of things.
What's gross? Germs. That is all. We discuss it - and we are sorry if it makes you not want to be in public anymore, but we also understand completely.
You are going to learn something this episode. The top 10 travel destinations in the US. This probably took us longer to get through than it should have, but ya know what? It is still fun and you will be able to make it through this entire episode! I mean, I hope you do! :)
In this episode we talk about the Superbowl! We also talk a little sports trivia. We both learned a lot and hopefully you will too!
In this episode we discuss some things that intrigue us. Do you find yourself watching different videos that are oddly satisfying?? Someone cleaning rugs, mowing yards and cleaning those up, organizing, etc??? We have those things that either we do or watch that provide satisfaction for whatever reason. We discuss this - what do you have that's oddly satisfying?
We are starting year 3 already! Look at how much we have grown!!! Haha! Actually, we acknowledge that we don't have a large following (yet) but we do this because it's fun. This year we will be a little more structured and a little more beneficial than in the past. We talk about goals, our New Year Resolutions - or lack thereof, and what this podcast is and will be.
Have you experienced AI? Most likely you have in some way or another...but have you used any AI tools? It's amazing some of the things that AI does for someone, whether it's work or just for fun. We discuss our experience with this new technology!
We had Halloween. This episode we are following up on what we did. We had a fun time!! We also got an update to the Apple Credit card that TJ started before. This is an overall update from a couple previous episodes... What did you do for Halloween???
Oh man...sometimes it feels like we are ahead of the curve with what we know on technology. Sometimes we are way behind. TJ has discovered a new cool technology thingy...so we discuss that, and sometimes how we are slow to adopt to and embrace certain technologies.
In this episode we are discussing different ways that we promote the podcast and those social media channels.
It's Halloween!!! We are excited for this holiday. What are some of your traditions? Do you dress up or no? We discuss these things today!
It's getting colder all of a sudden. It's like it was high 80s one week then all of a sudden it's in the 60s. So, yeah, this episode we are talking about the weather.
Nate recently went on a trip to Mexico. TJ and Nate discuss that trip and Mexico travel in general.
Many men come to a point in their lives where they feel like they need to shave their heads. Nate took the plunge and started doing that a year ago. Today, TJ is questioning if he is in that time period of his life. (He doesn't need to).
Today TJ shows a skill that we didn't know he had, then we discuss a poem. This poem had a significant impact on Nate when he first heard it, and we wanted to see how TJ would react. The discussion got much deeper than anticipated. Have a listed!
The poem? It's called Around the Corner by Charles Hanson Towne
Today TJ is live from the county fair. He has a lot of animals and responsibilities. Nate is still in his office just sitting around and doing nothing, but he tries to contribute to the conversation a little bit.
In this episode we update you on what's been going on in our lives. Some talk about travel, some talk about Spartan, some talk about who knows what. This is a chill, fun look into a little more of what makes us foluvvet.
Today we are discussing a new twist with our podcast. We wanted to bring some extra value to your lives, so we are doing adult book reviews! No, not that...it's book reviews done by adults. We love the idea of bettering our lives, and the lives of our listeners! Hopefully we can share something insightful that will inspire, motivate, and empower you as we begin to include this new realm of our podcast!
Today we talk about a key work in achieving anything you are going for - consistency. We relate this to our diets, mostly, but somehow turn it into something that we can learn from and move forward with. Consistency, and intention to deliberately take action towards achieving your goals. I don't know how we do it this time, but this is a very motivational message.
Hey fam! We talk about some cool things with our homes. Basically we live in opposite types of homes...and somehow that conversation takes a turn to animals and manure. Oddly enough, this conversation takes a crappy turn where we discuss some new ways to take care of business after the business is done, if you know what we mean.
We had a mindset shift in this episode. I always thought that there was a dichotomy of success and failure, and we are in the middle of it. You either make choices to help you succeed, or choices that lead to failure - and of course that's part of learning and you make different choices as you go. This is a new shift on looking at what the pathway to success could really look like. Very interesting conversation to say the least.
Did this shift your mindset on your thoughts about success?
Do you remember those old remedies that you grew up with? Things that you either don't know why they worked or that you know why they worked and are considered "non-traditional". Today we discuss some of the things that we have tried that work, and some that don't work. Any of you have that Book of Home Remedies? There were like 1000 of them! It had a lot of ideas that we tried as children, but we didn't have time to explore everything.
What are some of the old home remedies that you have tried?
In our households, it seems that we have some possibly non-traditional roles in terms of who is in charge of what. We discuss a couple aspects in particular - Dishes and laundry. It seems that we both have similar "efficiency" quirks that tend to put us in a position where we want to finish the tasks - and in this episode we discuss those quirks. Do you have a similar dynamic in your households?
Today we talk about the importance of finding a mentor. It's not essential, but it can be critical in helping you find the success you are looking for more quickly. We discuss a couple specific ways that we have done so in our personal lives, but give examples of other areas where it would be beneficial to find a mentor as well. This is more of an educational/serious discussion than our typical conversations - let us know what you think!
Man, TJ has a lot of animals. This is a fun episode where we learn more about taking care of animals, and what our thoughts are on pets.
We hit our first anniversary! Thanks to both of you for listening. We talk about the benefits to us for this podcast, as well as encouragement for anyone trying to start a new podcast. Or starting anything for that matter. Enjoy!
Gamification - the ability to make otherwise mundane things fun. Ok, not necessarily only mundane things, but the idea of making tasks fun to do can be addicting! Why does gamification work? This episode we talk about what that is, and what some of the things we have done because of gamification.
We have our first guest of the podcast! We ask a lot of questions of our friend, colleague, and horse expert Stefanie. She tells us a lot about horses, probably some things that you never knew - and it left us with so many unanswered questions. She is also very organized, and she helps us understand how to be more organized with our kids. It's a great conversation, and a welcome third voice for the first time! We will probably need to do another segment, soon.
It's interesting how different our senses of humor can be. Why can some people find something funny and others don't? On this episode we discuss a few movies and our opinions on them - why we think they are funny and why we might not. Also, Nate has a life changing experience that he shares with everyone.
This discussion is about difficult things that are on our bucket lists. This started with an upcoming life event that TJ will be experiencing soon! What do you want to do before you can't do it anymore? We discuss things like travel to experiences - from grandiose to minor. There are so many things to experience - what's on your bucket list?? What hard things have you done, or want to do??
Today we talk about the weather. The nuances over what it is like living in different areas and some interesting things about the weather.
We are starting season 2! This is kind of a random discussion, but we are also kicking off season 2 of the Foluvvet podcast!!
The older we get, the more we realize there are things we just can't do as well as we used to. One of those areas is in regards to food, and the sheer mass that we no longer can intake like we used to. This is a reminiscent podcast where we discuss food accomplishments that our younger selves were able to achieve!
Yes, sometimes we fact check...and yes, sometimes we are wrong. We are providing this bonus episode to quickly correct some misinformation from a previous episode that came to light. We will probably be providing several more bonus episodes like this in the future, so enjoy!
This podcast is focused on how much of a grinch both TJ and Nate have become when it comes to Christmas and the holiday season. Do better guys. Another focus of this podcast is holiday traditions!
In this impromptu episode we discuss hair. Head hair, beards, mustaches, nose and ear hair. All the hair.
This is our first video podcast!! We are up on several platforms, join us on our social media! We are becoming legit!
We discussed professional sports and the World Cup in this episode. Enjoy!
This episode is focused on the interesting things that can be done with your phone. Because we both have iPhone that’s the device we focus on, but we are pretty certain that any phone can do these things…possibly.
In this episode we discuss the importance of sleep, and some fun stories that we have experienced of things we do while we sleep. Do you have a funny/interesting sleep story?
Everyone has something they are afraid of. We talk a little more about what that is and how we’ve felt about this topic. We even share some recent experiences that got our fear levels rising!
Who doesn’t love a good dad joke?!? Being dads, we love them probably more than most. This is a sit back and relax type of an episode where we just tell a whole bunch of dad jokes - add them to your arsenal! We got you!
What makes someone a champion? What qualities do they have? I recently heard a very different take on what makes a champion, and we discuss that today!
What inspires you? This is a question that I’ve been thinking a lot about. I think everybody has something that inspires them. Even the concept can mean different things to different people. Today we talk about what it is that inspires us, and we pose the question to you, our listener…what really inspires you?
Have you ever heard of the 8 min nap? Usually when we think of a nap we set aside 20-30 minutes (minus the number of times we hit the snooze button) and it feels like it interrupts the day. Today we discuss this 8 minute nap concept and how it can be a game changer for you and your productivity during the day!
This is probably the last travel episode for a while. It’s a good day, and we are in for a real treat in today’s episode. We love sharing all of our secrets…enjoy!
Nate and TJ continue their discussion on travel preferences and provide some insight on some hacks they have learned along the way.
TJ and Nate share their travel preferences. They even share some travel hacks for you as a takeaway!
We thought our initial pilot was ruined, but it got fixed after we recorded this…so we discussed how imperfect action is better than perfect inaction, and we are living it.
In our pilot episode we come up with the name of the podcast, through a discussion of taking life’s curveballs and Disney’s Brave.
