Which toxicity levels shape the legal world we never question? In this candid, controversial sit-down, one of South Florida’s top attorney’s Tomas Kucera, breaks down the real incentives behind the system—foreclosure heartbreak, divorce toxicity, prosecutors vs. defenders, and the myths we keep from TV-law fantasies. We go straight into Miranda rights (what actually matters), the First Amendment vs. life in a communist country, and why some high-profile cases look legitimate yet feel like a rigged game.

Kucera also speaks as both lawyer and an immigrant himself—from asylum denial realities to how the previous administration’s policies changed the landscape—plus why “social media doesn’t help” when it comes to truth, empathy, or outcomes. It’s raw, human, and uncomfortably honest—the kind of conversation that forces you to rethink “justice,” toxicity, and what “glory” even means.

In this episode of The Grind and The Glory, Joe Rotbart sits down with Ewout Gouw, a Dutch former professional footballer who brought European football spirit to the streets of Miami. Together, they look back on their journey founding Dade County FC, a club built from passion, friendship, and pure love for the game.

From long nights balancing dreams and real life, to the culture shock of trying to create “real football” in the United States, Ewout shares what it truly takes to build something meaningful in a city that’s still learning what the beautiful game means. They laugh about their mistakes, remember the grind, and reflect on whether — after everything — they would ever do it again.

This is a story about purpose, sacrifice, and chasing something bigger than yourself — on and off the field.

In this raw, eye-opening conversation, Dr. John Nordt—a Miami based spine surgeon with decades in the Operating Room—pulls back the curtain on the dark incentives in modern medicine and healthcare. From RVUs and scrupulous billing practices to the overuse of MRIs and the rush to unnecessary procedures, Dr. Nordt explains how money, power, and morality can determine how a doctor treats a patient. This is not your typical “healthcare is broken” rant—it’s a surgeon’s unfiltered account of how good intentions collide with perverse incentives.

We go deep into the operating room — where skill meets uncertainty, and every decision leaves a mark. We question the rise in unnecessary procedures, the weight of expectations, and the ethics of care — then and now. What happens when pressure replaces purpose? When data and images define a life before a surgeon ever does?

This is the reality behind the scrubs — raw, human, and unapologetically real.

Because when those who know the truth speak up… we don’t just heal patients — we heal the system itself.

Steve Zima’s story isn’t a highlight reel — it’s a blueprint. From a chaotic childhood and sleeping outside to zero-sleep night shifts in the ER and working 24-7 in spine surgery sales, Steve turned pain into purpose and discipline into freedom. In this raw, reflective conversation, we unpack the mindset, decisions, and compounding habits behind a life-changing outcome — including the investment that became a ~$30M win. We go personal and practical: redefining success beyond money, choosing the right rooms and partners, managing identity after a big exit, and the simple routines that scale your life more than any hack. If you’re building a business, investing, or rebuilding yourself, this is a masterclass in turning setbacks into leverage.

This isn’t just about medicine — it’s about what drives someone to keep studying, keep working, and keep believing long after everyone else stops. We talk about culture, identity, burnout, success, and what it really takes to become the best in your field.
