In this extra-unfiltered episode, Donny dives headfirst into the unpredictable world of ADHD-fueled ambition, pre-marriage flamethrower experiments, and the beautiful mess of running a life built on passion, pets, and pure grit.
This episode includes:🔥 The story of how Donny once built a flamethrower “just to see if he could”
💍 Why his wife Lucy is the glue holding his chaotic genius together
🐾 Introductions to Mina, Maylin, Machete, Bagel, and Frank—his furry support staff
🧠 Real talk on ADHD, “wasted potential,” and embracing the zigzag path
💥 Deep dives into the myth of productivity, nonlinear success, and running your life like a controlled explosion
😂 And plenty of ridiculous tangents, off-topic side quests, and caffeine-fueled wisdom bombs
BONUS: Special Guest Teaser
Next week, Donny sits down with his best friend of 20+ years—Adam Powell of MS’d With the Wrong MFer—for a hilarious, honest, and possibly inappropriate conversation about life with multiple sclerosis and how humor can punch adversity in the face.
This one’s got heart, heat, and a whole lot of hustle. Let it play. Let it breathe. Let it ramble. It’s exactly what it’s meant to be.
