Episode #0007 with Amanda Hall

Do you know Amanda? Amanda Hall that is?

Yes/No, well your about to find out. She is a talker! But on the good side of talking, and the bonus, she can make you laugh and stop you in your tracks all in one swoop. That’s the Amanda I know. 

I met her through Dawn Cruzan from Camp Craig Allen, a non-profit in Texas. I volunteered my time for a few years here and there and at some of their events. I was able to work closely with Amanda when she coordinated the event or whatever production they were working on at that time.

Over the years, Amanda has shown her true colors of the type of person she is. And let me tell you, she is your best friend from the get go. The only thing you have to worry about is simple, don’t break the trust. That’s it in a nutshell. She has a character but trust me, I have never met someone with her type caring and loving humor and the love for life all wrapped up in a beautiful smile. So friend beware haha. No, really she is awesome and I am honored to have met and know her over the years. 

Ok, now on this episode, we talk and talk and talk and talk. Wait, you thought for a sec I would tell you about this episode. You were wrong! Go watch it, and I promise you, there will a few things you may not know about her.

Thank you Amanda for taking a little time away from life to visit and talk about the good things from past and the future. I wish you well, godspeed!

I dare ya to go watch and find out who she really is!

Episode #0006 with Urshel Lee Metcalf

Can you believe this is episode #0006 already???

On this episode I bring in a friend, colleague and all around great guy. Oh and he is a former Marine, duh! I had this wild idea planed for this show and when we started the conversation, we had a few laughters and it was like the energizer bunny, we kept on talking and talking and talking.  That was ok with us because we had so much to share. 

During the show I decided to pull the ole one word ask, one word answer trick. Urshel did really well but I stumped him on a few. (go watch it). We laughed a little more than usual, in the end, the answers were perfect.

I can’t say thank you enough to Urshel for taking a moment in time to be on this show and share his heart and thoughts. 

Episode 6 is in the books, now before you do anything else, WATCH THE SHOW!! GO!

Episode #0005 Today I show you the website

Man I must start off to tell you how cool it is to finally get something done, completed, finished. On this episode I discuss the process and completion of this website.

After many years thinking about this idea of a podcast, it finally happened. If I could go back and tell myself something important, I would suggest to just do it. If you thinking and feel good about it, then do it. Trust your gut and heart. Don’t overthink of the idea, but have passion and do not try to be perfect, no one is perfect. That all being said, find that trust deep inside, turn off the noise and just do it. 

At the end of the day, this episode was just about sharing the website and future ideas. Hope you enjoy. 

See you on the next episode.

Live Life Intro Audio

Beginning in January 2021, this will be the intro to the show, Live Life Podcast.

Many years back I had the idea of how life should be lived but along the way, you find out that life somehow manages to live you at times.

Trademarked the motto in which I try to live by:
“Live Life, Don’t Let Life Live You!”

I always say you have control of your life and you only have one to live to live it the best you can. We seem to overthink this life at time and we get in our own way. We forget to trust ourselves. Instead we got with the flow and think we will just fix that one in the future. We all do that. Some manage to change on a daily basis and other change when the going gets tough. Rarely do people change when the going is good. But that should not stop you. This goes back to how you think about you. You know the saying, you do you and I will do me? That’s true in this life, you do you, you control you, you be you and don’t waste time worrying about the woulda shoulda coulda. Forget about the past, you can not and never will be able to change that. An how’s this for a humdinger of a thought, you can not change the future, meaning you can not change tomorrow. All you can do, is change right now! What you do right now will change tomorrow and your future. Let that thought sit in a for a moment and maybe, just maybe you will now realize you really do have control. So the question is, how much control do you have?

At the end of the day, if the life is living you and your not happy. Change it now! Not tomorrow, not next week or in the future. Change it now! And instead when you do change it, you will not be living the life you so deserve and tell the past to take a hike. Oh and one last thing, breathe, and take deep slow breaths, getting upset and angry changes nothing, it only changes you on the outside which controls you on the outside. Remember what I said, only you have control. – Mark Wariner 01/02/2021

Episode #0004 with Missi Trantham

After taking a much-needed break, I took some time to prepare for Podcast Episode #4. Today’s guest was Missi Wilson, Um er, sorry about that. She will now be called Missi Trantham. She got married since I last spoke to her. (Congrats Missi)

A couple of things were discussed today. One, my show and what it is all about. And Two, all about Missi. A force to be reckoned with, the blonde that she is, she is launching or I actually should say re-launching her show. Previously her show was called Missinformed and was with KVGI Radio. And she still is technically, but re-launching, the show will be called, Missinformed Texas and it will be on the KVGI Media network.

In this episode we discussed the future of my show, Live Live, and when and how to find Missi’s new show coming soon. If you are interested you will have to go listen! (sorry not sorry)

Watch the show below. You may also listen via podcast audio at the bottom of this page. The list of all my previous shows is there (Soon to be on other platforms) OR you can find the podcast show via YouTube too. You have options, you choose to watch or listen when you’re ready.
