[COFFEE] = Double shot of caffeinated bean water today!
My buddy (and Fuel The Pursuit partner) Mike Lum gifted me a bag of Ethiopian from my favorite coffee shop in Montana, Treeline Coffee Roasters. It was one of the best Ethiopians I’ve ever had, which means it’s one of the best coffees I’ve ever had. 5/5
Treeline Coffee Roasters: Ethiopia Belayneh Bariso Farm (sadly, not available on their website. IMO, their e-comm UX isn’t the greatest.)
My pal Dr. Jack Wolfson, best-selling author of: The Paleo Cardiologist also sent me a few bags of his coffee to try.
I send him a new patient, he sends me coffee. Pretty good deal 😂
He sent 3 bags: light, medium, and dark roast. They’re all from Hondurus.
So far, I’ve only had the light roast, and it was sneaky good. One of those that seems plain, like a great Vanilla ice cream or protein powder, that turns out to be something that could be a great daily “house blend”.
Cardiology Coffee = 4/5

Sturgill Simpson’s 2019 album Sound & Fury is epic and I have it on repeat lately.
My favorite tracks are Make Art Not Friends, Remember To Breathe, and Mercury In Retrograde.
Here’s Make Art Not Friends. When the beats drops & kicks in around the 1:45 mark…🔥🤌
[PODCAST] 3x today!
First, Aaron Rodgers was on Joe Rogan recently, and it was pretty interesting.
Second, Christian Thibaudeau is among the Top 3 strength coaches who have influenced me over my career. He’s one of the smartest strength guys out there and I can’t recommend his work enough.
He’s going to be a guest on the BHP very soon, but if you want a deep dive on lifting, muscle building, and all the things you didn’t even know that you didn’t know: LISTEN TO THIS PODCAST.
Or watch the video version on YouTube here.
And finally, I heard Rob Lowe has a great podcast, so I checked it out.
The guest list is a real Who’s Who of A-listers, including:
Seth MacFarlane (Family Guy creator)
Malcolm Gladwell (NY Times best-selling author)
Rainn Wilson (Dwight from The Office)
music industry legend Clive Davis (everyone from Springsteen, Whitney Houston, The Notorious B.I.G., and just about anyone else you can name)
I downloaded them all, excited to dig in…
But if I’m being honest, the episodes are disappointing.
I haven’t completed a single episode.
I did want to hear more from Clive Davis, so I watched the Netflix documentary, The Soundtrack of Our Lives.
10/10 would recommend it.
Here is the Netflix trailer:

I just binge-listened to yet another Jack Reacher book by Lee Child. If you haven’t realized it yet, I love this series. This installment was called 61 Hours, and it gets a 4.5/5 from me.
