Gentlemen welcome to the 34th episode of Thursday Throwdown and I've got something different for you guys today

today I'm doing an interview and

today's interview is actually going to be just about 15 minutes long.

And what happened during this interview though was we ended up going quite a bit longer and for good reason.

Guys as you know, December 28th, which was yesterday of 2016,

marked the one year anniversary of me going alcohol free in 2016. I actually

went an entire year without any alcohol whatsoever and through this journey I have found other guys who are pretty passionate about wanting to maybe cut out alcohol in their lives as well and came across a guy about six months ago who ended up joining

our Dad Edge mastermind and he is now in his second session of the Dad Edge mastermind.

So he's been with us for nearly six months since he has started

this journey of alcohol free. But I really wanted to interview this guy and I want to share

his story with you guys because it's so incredible and it's so impactful and not to not

to mention the fact that the guy is just awesome to listen to he's got this deep Scottish

accent he sounds like William Wallace Wallace, but it's a phenomenal story and I want to share it with you guys.

And this really comes from a dad who is struggling, a dad who is struggling, who is drinking nearly every day, and almost actually ended his life.

And the story is just incredible.

So like I said, you know, the goal of this interview was actually just to get it done in about 15 minutes

for a Thursday throw down.

But it went on and I just let James talk because it was so inspiring, you know, where he started his journey and

where he's at today and his story is just too good not to share. So that is why

today's throw-down episode is a little bit longer than normal.

But I want to give you guys a heads up that today's story, man, it is absolutely epic.

Guys, sit back, relax, and enjoy.
