This week, Ti and Matt sit down with real estate agent Blake Wood. While Blake is known for helping clients find their homes, his own journey to find his home (passion) is equally compelling. From driving across Australia to an unexpected meeting with his future wife in Italy—despite growing up just 45 minutes apart—Blake’s path has been anything but conventional. Supported by family and guided by key mentors, his story is a reminder that life doesn’t need to be fully mapped out at 18 to be meaningful and successful.

At 90 years old, Del welcomed us to the iconic Ritchie Sports Bar, where we recorded this episode and explored his remarkable collection of memorabilia. His keepsakes—spanning over 600 Orioles games, 34 Masters Tournaments, and countless other events—are not mere displays, but cherished reminders of experiences shared with family and friends. It’s an inspiring conversation with a true gentleman.

For a podcast that is focused on moving forward, this week is a curve ball as the guys take a look back at episodes 31 through 56. Frankly not much has changed.

Seriously, we are grateful to the listeners and guests for building this community and look forward to more challenges and spit-takes in season 2!
