The Relentless Pursuit Podcast

Culture is like a river that winds us this way and that without us realizing it. Today we discuss 6 "norms" in cultural - from sports gambling to Door Dash - and explore our approach to wading through the river of modern culture.

One super basic principle of a healthy mind and spirit is simply drinking enough water. But how much hydration is enough, and how can we make sure we're getting the all the water that we need? 

What do people mean when they say "Rizz," "Huzz," and "6-7?" Our slang is global, and changing faster than many of us can keep up with - but we're here to translate for you!

We find ourselves saying asking certain questions as winter approaches ("Why am I so tired?" and "Have I had any water today?"). This week we take a look at how wintertime affects our bodies, emotions, and behaviors. 

November is the month to say "no" to the things that have cluttered our lives. As the year begins to draw to a close, we have a chance to recalibrate our priorities and prune what doesn't belong. 

When was the last time you had a good cry, and what caused it? Today we discuss the different ways we cry, and specific things that are likely to induce us to tears.

The polls are clear: Americans are having less sex now than ever before. It doesn't matter if you're old or young, single or married. Less sex - unfortunately - is our new reality, UNLESS we choose to reprioritize it in our relationship. 

Millions of Americans own pets, and whether they are dogs, cats, fish, reptiles, or birds, they tend to provide a net benefit for the right families who welcome them in. 

We're back with a new season, and we start by challenging ourselves to lean toward AUTHENTICITY in how we live and present ourselves to the world. 

Today we celebrate our 200th episode! After 5 years of recording, we celebrate this milestone, and take turns interviewing one another about the our experience on the podcast, in life, and with a grab bag of hilarious topics. 

Our bank recently flagged some "suspicious activity," on our account. The activity: Rosanna finally bought herself something personal. This event inspired our quest into how "suspicious" it is or isn't to actually do something for yourself. 

What should our relationships to our parents look like once we're all grown up? We discuss the possibilities, the joys, and the boundaries of enjoying an ongoing relationship with mom and dad in this week's conversation.

We worry a lot about being the best possible parents for our kids...or at least trying not to mess up our children too much. In this conversation we discuss the pros and cons of what's commonly called "Gentle Parenting," and offer our personal - if imperfect - experiences as parents. 

Chances are you're not alone in the things you struggle with most. Today we talk about 10 battles every adult faces, and name the things that can often make life so challenging. 

Viral moments - often featuring other people's sins, mistakes, and misfortunes - capture our attention. We gossip, we investigate, we judge. But does how we respond to these moments say more about US than it does about THEM?

So many of our conversations begin with generic, predictable, scripted questions that lead...nowhere. We'll share which 10 questions we're trying to avoid, and which 10 better questions we've been sprinkling into our conversations. 

We look at ourselves all the time - but what are we looking for? In today's conversation we explore how much our appearance maters, and what happens when we prioritize how we look above other attributes.

When we purchase a "luxury," we feel a little different about it. We treat the item or experience a little better than the commonplace. But what if we thought of OURSELVES as a luxury brand, and treated ourselves with the same awe and reverence?

As much as we love our spouse, there are just some things they do that give us "the ick" - the gross feeling that is an immediate turnoff. In this episode, Jordan and Rosanna confess their icks to one another and share how they like to broach the subject.
