College football just wrapped up one of the most entertaining, chaotic, and revealing seasons in modern history — and it left us with more questions than answers.

In this episode of This with Krish, we break down the full college football season recap, including the biggest highlights, the most controversial moments, and the uncomfortable realities reshaping the sport. From transfer portal free agency and NIL money to COVID eligibility creating 25-year-old players lining up against freshmen, this season exposed how quickly college football is evolving into something closer to professional football.

We dig into why some players are choosing to stay in college instead of entering the NFL Draft, how NIL money is changing incentives, and why incoming freshmen are now being benched like NFL rookies. We also examine the cultural shift happening inside locker rooms, using real postgame comments to contrast leadership styles and accountability from quarterbacks like Carson Beck and Fernando Mendoza.

Plus, we discuss the warnings from Nick Saban about the lack of structure, enforcement, and long-term sustainability in today’s college football landscape.

This is a fun, honest, and thoughtful conversation about where college football has been, where it is right now, and where it might be headed next. Whether you love the changes or hate them, this season proved one thing: college football will never be the same again.

I was supposed to record this episode on Friday night — but life happened. A last-minute family road trip to Hot Springs, Arkansas turned into the perfect setup for this conversation about water, trust, history, and the stories we tell ourselves about what’s “clean.”

From ancient thermal springs and historic bath houses… to gangsters hiding out in the 1920s… to ordering still water on a date night in Austin and getting handed rainwater in a can — this episode dives deep into how water became culture, status, marketing, and belief.

We unpack new science questioning whether bottled water is actually cleaner, talk about microplastics, tap water myths, wellness branding, and why something as simple as water reveals how much we’ve overcomplicated trust.

This one is thoughtful, funny, historical, and surprisingly personal.

Listen with an open mind — and maybe a glass of water nearby.

How do you build multiple businesses, partnerships, and creative projects without completely burning out?

In this episode of This with Krish, I pull back the curtain on what it really looks like to juggle full-time careers, startups in different stages, equity partnerships, real estate investing, a podcast, a clothing line, a nonprofit — and still protect your marriage, your faith, and your sanity.

This episode is a continuation of yesterday’s conversation, “The American Dream Didn’t Die,” where we talked about how opportunity has changed. Today, we go deeper into the part no one glamorizes: the pressure, the exhaustion, the systems, and the mindset required to build without losing yourself.

We talk about: • Why burnout isn’t about working hard — it’s about bad design • How my wife Shannon and I stay aligned while building multiple ventures • The difference between being busy and building momentum • Why owning everything at once is a fast track to exhaustion • How to reorder your life without quitting the dream

This isn’t hustle culture. This is sustainable ambition.

If you’re building something big — or thinking about it — this episode is for you.
