The LAB with Bryce Prescott

The LAB with Bryce Prescott

Most of us are trying to figure life out as we go. What works. What doesn’t. What’s actually worth the effort. The LAB is where I test those questions out loud. It’s honest conversation, sharp observation, and humor about what happens when you stop acting like you have it all together and start paying attention to how you actually live, work, think, and behave. Some weeks it’s just me. Breaking down patterns I’m noticing. Decisions I’ve made. Mistakes I’ve learned from. Things I’m still wrestling with. Other weeks it’s a conversation with someone who’s thoughtful, honest, and worth listening to. We talk about the things that matter. Self-mastery. Business and money. Spirutality. Relationships. Creativity. Not as theories, but as lived experiences. There’s humor because life is absurd. There’s honesty because anything else is a waste of time. You won’t find a formula, a sermon, or a highlight reel version of life here. You’ll find perspective that helps your own choices make a little more sense. New episodes weekly.

We don't require accountants to have perfect personal finances or therapists to have perfect marriages. But somewhere along the way, the coaching industry became subject to a standard nobody alive could meet. In this episode, Bryce steps directly into the fire — speaking as an imperfect coach, from inside the industry he's built his career in — to draw the line that everyone has been too careful to draw. Life imperfecti...

    What if the delay you keep calling a problem is actually mercy? In this episode, Bryce introduces one of the most foundational concepts in the series — the distinction between divine timing and divine sequencing. From the macro view, things appear to arrive in perfect time. Zoom in and something different is revealed: a specific, ordered sequence of required upgrades that prepares you to hold what you've been asking for. Thro...

    For a lot of men, the first time they'll receive flowers is at their funeral. In this episode, Bryce Prescott speaks directly — brother to brother — to the man who is doing the work every day, showing up for everyone around him, and coming home at night to a feed that tells him he's the problem. Through the lens of male identity, the criticism-versus-change paradox, and one of the most overlooked dynamics in self-develo...

    She was the number one salesperson at an AT&T call center for six months straight — high on opioids the entire time. Brittany Blake grew up as the invisible middle child in a small Idaho town, survived sexual trauma she couldn't name until a classroom lesson did it for her, and spent four years managing a full-blown OxyContin addiction while holding down a career and a life that looked completely fine from the outside.

    "Protect your peace" is the most popular philosophy nobody is benefiting from. In this episode, Bryce delivers one of the most direct and practically grounded episodes in the series — a full-on challenge to the mantra that has taken over self-care culture. Using a gym metaphor built around a 45-pound plate, he traces exactly how avoidance compounds into fragility, why people with the richest therapeutic vocabulary are often t...

    You don't actually want certainty. You want control — and you've been calling it something more respectable for years. In this episode, Bryce connects a previous conversation on biology and hormones to one of the most pervasive and least examined patterns in high-achieving people: the craving for guaranteed outcomes before taking action. Drawing on his own cancer diagnosis, his season of delayed business decisions, and the li...

    He was backstage at a sold-out comedy show, surrounded by people and energy, and couldn't stop thinking about one question: am I hard to love? In this episode, Bryce records from inside one of his most personally vulnerable seasons — sitting with the silence between relationships, auditing his own needs, and trying to separate what's actually his from what the internet has told him he's allowed to want. Through a quote that j...

    Knowing that a negative emotion is a signal was never the whole answer. In this episode, Bryce closes the gap he's been aware of for some time — teaching you not just to receive the signal, but to know what to do once it arrives. Through a single, clean three-part framework — Hold the Line, Shift the Focus, Let Go — he walks through each response in detail with two personal stories: letting go of an elite skiing c...

    In this follow-up interview, Bryce sits down again with Shinia Powell, cast member of The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives, for the conversation nobody expected her to agree to a second time.

    Since their last talk, Shinia has stepped into a public relationship with Dakota Mortensen, found herself the middle person in a co-parenting dynamic the internet has strong opinions about, and finally addressed the affair that ended her cl...

    We are the most psychologically literate generation in history — and some of us are using that literacy to avoid healing faster than any generation before us. In this episode, Bryce delivers his most direct and urgent message of the series: a plea. Not to stop learning the language of trauma and attachment. To stop letting the diagnosis become the identity. Through the lens of his own separation and a pattern of meanness and ...

    Bryce gives you an encore presentation of his discussion on the idea that most people are living inside a psychological trance — a set of beliefs and stories about their life they’ve stopped questioning. He explains how routines, identity, and perception quietly become automated, creating familiarity even when life no longer works. He introduces a powerful reframe: stop moralizing your experience and start asking a simp...

    Far too many people let their last relationship dictate their next one. In this episode, Bryce Prescott pulls on a matchmaker's TikTok line that stopped him cold and uses it to unpack one of the most common and least examined patterns in dating, relationships, and life: the difference between knowing what you don't want and knowing what you actually do.

    Not needing someone's approval and actually receiving someone's love are the same skill pointed in two different directions. In this episode, Bryce turns 51 and notices something in the middle of being celebrated — the instinct to deflect, minimize, and joke it away before it can fully land. He catches it in real time and chooses to just receive it instead. What follows is one of the most overlooked gaps in self-development c...

    A comment from someone Bryce can't stand sent him into four seconds of jaw-clenched rage — and then gave him one of the clearest lessons of the series. In this episode, he traces that moment to a single skill that sits underneath almost every fight, every failed relationship, and every conflict you've never fully resolved: the ability to see yourself from outside yourself. From there, he unpacks a three-part accountability fr...

    Two things happened to Bryce in the same week that looked completely unrelated — a major business opportunity and a surprise return to standup comedy. By Sunday night he realized they were the exact same lesson wearing different clothes. In this episode, Bryce unpacks both stories through a single framework: luck is the residue of preparation and motion, and it almost always arrives with discomfort attached. The timing is bru...

    It started with a prayer, a morning walk, and a song that crested at exactly the right moment. In this episode, Bryce shares a deeply personal and emotionally charged experience — a moment on a hill in his neighborhood where the music, the landscape, and the words, "look up" arrived all at once and broke him open. From that moment, he builds a simple but foundational challenge: where in your life are you looking down when you...

    Emotional intelligence tells you what's driving you. Honesty lets you admit it. Accountability makes you own it. None of that explains why the behavior keeps happening anyway.

Using a small, unflattering moment of his own — catching himself enjoying a bit o...

      DISGRACELAND

      DISGRACELAND is an award-winning music and true crime podcast about musicians getting away with murder and behaving very badly. Jerry Lee Lewis's 5th wife? Dead. Sid and Nancy? Both dead. Why? Because musicians are insane, and insane things happen to them. Why did we lose Amy Winehouse at 27? Was Debbie Harry really abducted by Ted Bundy as she claims? Is Patti Smith not just the "Godmother of Punk", but also the "Original True Crime Girl"? What really happened the night of the Jay Z nightclub stabbing? What do the Diddy indictments truly reveal? All these stories and more, on artists from every genre and their true crimes, in our massive 260-plus story archive. The Dead, the Stones, Johnny, Willie, Frank, Kurt, Courtney, Gaga, Lana, Taylor, and too many to name. DISGRACELAND is music history come to life through audio storytelling as you've never heard it before, with revealing facts: yes, assassins are the real reason the Beatles quit touring—reclaimed myths: no, Mama Cass didn't die from choking on a ham sandwich––and constant reckoning between art and artist––all told through the lens of true crime. This is the podcast for the self-proclaimed "Disgos", the musically obsessed and the true crime heads; the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried. DISGRACELAND is where host Jake Brennan tells the stories they didn't want told. The kind you'll end up telling someone else. Get ready to uncover hidden truths and buckle up for truly edge-of-your-seat storytelling. New, fully scripted, sound-designed episodes are released every Tuesday. Bonus chat-style episodes where Jake responds to voicemails, texts, and emails from Disgos hit on Thursdays, and "Rewind" episodes from our archive drop on Sundays. DISGRACELAND is not a journalistic podcast. It's an entertainment podcast inspired by true events. Certain dialogue and scenes are dramatized, as is common in scripted entertainment based on real stories. Sources and credits for each episode are available at www.disgracelandpod.com.
