  Nobody Warns You About the Owner's Seat | Ep 53 with Kyle Draper

  Aug 17, 202635 minS1

  Honey, the couch has never been this dangerous. Mylo sits down with Kyle Draper, the man behind the Rethink Everything book series, founder of Higher Culture, and the only person who could survive being told, on day one, that Mylo wanted to nestle in the crook of his Christian bosom. Ten years of friendship, one green pair of pants, zero filter. Kyle admits he used to need a stage the way some people need coffee, and what happened when he stopped booking them. Mylo explains why he does not accept apologies, why the second "I'm sorry" is just a pattern with better manners, and what a little sip of notoriety water does to a person. There is a Kandi Burruss comparison that Kyle is absolutely taking home to his wife. Also pictured: Two grown men on a couch, agreeing that most people cannot handle a single uncomfortable conversation without running back to their comfort zone.

  You Can't Chase Money, Just Stand Still and Let It Hit You | Ep 52

  Aug 10, 202630 minS1

  Your company is not a family. Family doesn't lay you off in Q4. Mary said it, Mylo agreed, and then the two of them spent twenty-nine minutes airing out everything wrong with the way people manage people. Mary confesses she used to lose it every single morning over an employee who strolled in at NOT 9am, and even though clients adored the woman, Mary still fumed. Ten years later she doesn't care what time you clock in, which is either growth or surrender (you decide). Mylo brings the mortgage drama. A buyer offering something utterly ridiculous and genuinely offended anyone pushed back, until Mylo asked her one question and got dead silence. And the line to steal: buying a home is 98% emotion, 1% documentation, 1% Mylo magic. Also covered: how to fire a client and make it your fault on purpose, why "know who you are" is Mylo's whole vetting system, the one question that gets your team to tell you what's actually broken, and Mary sneaking a business announcement in at the very end like nobody would notice (we noticed). Grab the book: Squash the Sunday Scaries: A Modern Playbook to Rebuild Trust, Transform Culture, and Reignite Your Workforce by Mary Baird. Amazon, your local indie, or in bundles for your whole team. Ask her about the corporate book club office hours, she buried that announcement at the very end.

  Your Boss Was Never Trained (And It Shows) ft Mary Baird | Ep 51

  Aug 3, 202632 minS1

  Only one in five managers worldwide are actually engaged at work. The other four are doing what Mary Baird calls solid C-minus work, and calling it a career. She wrote a whole book about it. Mylo has notes. Mary runs The Simplifiers, just published "Squash the Sunday Scaries", and shows up with eight ways to fix a miserable team (none of which involve money). Mylo shows up with four loan officers, a brokerage, and a very real question about how to keep everybody motivated without doing their jobs for them. She gives him three things to steal. One is a sentence she makes him write down on mic. One is a fifteen-minute meeting with exactly one question in it, and the reason it works is that nobody has ever asked your employee that question in their life. Also: a Walmart wig and a thrift store muumuu. Chapters: 00:00 Write This Down 01:20 "If You Write a Book, Call Me First" 03:10 The Walmart Wig That Wouldn't Scan 04:30 Squash the Sunday Scaries: What the Book Actually Is 05:00 The Gallup Stat That Should Scare Your C-Suite 07:50 Nobody Enrolls in College Hoping To Hate Their Job 08:15 Parenting, Dreams and the OnlyFans Question 09:35 Corporate America Is Middle School With Payroll 11:10 Employees First, Then Customers, Then Money 12:40 Spinning Plates and the Wednesday Scaries 15:20 "I Opened the Brokerage So Nobody Could Tell Me What To Do" 16:50 Most Managers Have Never Had a Good Boss 19:00 Job Hugging and What Bad Bosses Really Cost 19:45 The Production Pulse and Atlas the ChatGPT 22:10 Nobody Cares What You Look Like 27:30 "What Are You Scared Of?"

  Less Is More, Honey (Put the Syringe Down) | Ep 50

  Jul 27, 202630 min

  Mylo drags the fabulous Lisa Bauer onto the couch (yes, the comfy one) for a masterclass in aging disgracefully in the buckle of the Bible Belt. One nosy neighbor is convinced these two only talk about one thing… so naturally they pivot to peptides, lasers, and how to snatch a neck without flying to Turkey for it. You're welcome, Barbara. Lisa spills on the gospel of less is more (because nobody asked to walk around looking like a Lego with boulders in their cheeks) and drops the tea on tox, filler, Sofwave, Sculptra, and the great GLP-1 reformulation happening on everyone's scale right now. They debate the $6,500 Turkey facelift trend, ugly-cry over Dallas being a certified mecca of plastic surgeons ("Tits by Fritz," anyone?), and confirm the one universal truth of the recession: hair doesn't know if you're broke. Chapters: 0:00 Find Your Why (Or You're Just Clucking Around) 0:40 "Do They Always Have to Talk About D*ck?" 1:00 All Things Skin: Peptides, Lasers & Tox 2:50 Turning 58 & The Great Facelift Debate 3:20 Dallas: Mecca of Plastic Surgeons (Tits by Fritz) 3:50 Flying to Turkey for a $6,500 Facelift 4:40 Hair Doesn't Know You're Broke: Recession-Proof Careers 6:15 Mom's 90-Year-Old Facelift & Irish Genetics 7:50 How Randall Introduced Us + Sofwave Shout-Out 8:40 Stop Injecting Like a Lego: The Case for Less Is More 11:50 The Last 6 Months Behind the Chair 13:20 Entitlement Abroad vs. American Privilege 14:45 Doing Your Inventory: Where's My Cap? 17:20 My Why Is My Husband (Milo & Bruce) 19:30 Turn Up the TV: On the Spectrum With Noise 21:40 The Original Skin x Garden of Eden T-Shirt Pitch 25:00 Summer of Sculptra Event + Shout-Outs 27:30 Go to Original Skin or Stop Watching, Honey #MyloAndFriends #OriginalSkin #Botox #Filler #Injectables #Tox #AestheticNurse #MedSpa #DallasMedSpa #Sculptra #Sofwave #Skincare #AntiAging #Facelift #Peptides

  Dying Thin & Fabulous ft. Lisa Botox | Ep 49

  Jul 20, 202625 min

  This episode Mylo welcomes his first-ever Friends guest to the couch: the one, the only, Lisa "Botox" Bauer, aka the Madonna of Mortgages, aka the woman living rent-free in Mylo's phone under an alias. These two spill everything with zero chill and even less filter. Lisa gets real about being forced into her 2.0 era after Jennifer's Law benched her needle (40 years of experience apparently means nothing next to a fresh RN, but sure, Texas, okay), why $149 unlimited Botox should make you run and NOT walk, and the frozen-face horror story that'll have you clutching your good side. Then it's a full send into the peptide rabbit hole: Ozempic that ghosted, tirzepatide that delivered, and Retta the "soul taker" that turns off the food noise and the drama noise in one shot. Add in a scale that dared to lie, a mentor who confirmed that growth happens when you stop giving a damn, and a handbag hoard so unhinged Bruce is inheriting a guest room that looks like a Louis Vuitton crime scene. It's messy, it's medical-grade, it's fabulous. As Lisa says: if she's dying, she's dying thin, looking young, and leaving the bags to Bruce. Chapters: 00:00 If I Die, I'm Dying Thin 00:38 Welcome Back, Baby: Meet Lisa Botox 02:05 The Madonna of Mortgages Reinvents Herself 04:10 Jennifer's Law & the Injection Ban 06:20 40 Years vs. a Piece of Paper 09:00 Find Your Why: Tony Robbins & Simon Sinek 10:15 Original Skin & Why Medical Backing Matters 11:20 $149 Unlimited Botox? Don't Walk, Run 12:00 The Frozen Face Horror Story 13:10 Peptides, Ozempic & the "Soul Taker" 17:00 Broker Owner Era: Growth When You Stop Caring 19:00 The Willow Bend Zen Escape 20:30 Botox Shoutouts: Necks Snatched 21:30 Buyer Beware: The Wild West of Peptides 23:00 Dying Thin & the Great Handbag Hoard #MyloAndFriends #BotoxTalk #MedSpaTea #PeptideJourney #DallasBeauty #GLP1 #ReinventYourself #PodcastClips
