| 0:00.0 | All right, everybody. Welcome back to another edition of the Untitled Jeff Luck podcast. |
| 0:26.3 | I'm your host Jeff Luck, and today it is a very special edition of the Driven Life series, |
| 0:32.3 | where this year I've been talking to people about motivational or self-improvement stories or habits that |
| 0:39.5 | can help you out. Today, I am speaking with a NASCAR fan named Matthew Todd. I've never met |
| 0:47.2 | Matthew. I've only communicated with him on Twitter. But I think Matthew's story and experience is |
| 0:52.7 | something that you're going to want to hear and you will find valuable. |
| 0:57.1 | One year ago this week, Matthew suffered a traumatic brain injury, which I will let him tell the details of. |
| 1:04.2 | And as he recovered, NASCAR was something that helped him bring back some of his memories, which he was struggling with. |
| 1:12.3 | In fact, I first heard from Matthew when he was following some of my tweets on Twitter and had no |

| 1:47.0 | Matthew is on Twitter at Matthew Todd 04, and he invites anyone who would like to hear more of his |
| 1:54.5 | story to contact him, and he said he'd even hop on the phone with people. I'll explain more |
| 1:59.3 | of that later, but for now, let's just start |
| 2:01.9 | and get right into our interview and hear Matthew's story. Okay, we've got Matthew Todd on the line now. |
| 2:09.5 | Matthew, how are you doing? I'm doing well, Jeff, and it's a privilege to speak with you. I'm very |
| 2:16.5 | glad to be here, and I'm very glad to be here. |
| 2:17.8 | And I have enjoyed our exchanges on Twitter. |
