It’s the episode before our one-year anniversary, and instead of planning something fancy… we’re procrastinating (shocking, we know). Life’s been busy, the world’s a little wild (hello, Election Day), and somehow we’re already decorating for Christmas. Join us as we catch up, wing it, and remind ourselves that everything is fine. Probably.

From game days to new plays — former NFL star Melvin Gordon joins hosts Sarah and Bryon for a real talk about what happens after the final whistle. 🏈💬 The two-time Pro Bowler opens up about the mental game of retirement, building businesses, and redefining success beyond the field. Whether you’re chasing a dream, starting fresh, or just need a spark of inspiration — this episode proves the next chapter might just be the best one yet. ⚡️

We’re creeping up on our one-year podcast anniversary (how did that happen?!), so we’re getting a little reflective… but not too serious. In this episode, we talk about where this thing is going, how much we’ve changed since hitting record for the first time, and why subject to change might as well be our tagline. We’ve got stories, laughs, and a few hints about upcoming guests—basically a little bit of chaos, a little bit of heart, and a whole lot of us.

We’re back after a short break — and the custom trucker hat finally makes its debut! We catch up on life, vent about our losing Ohio NFL teams, and Sarah opens up about her mental health journey over the past year. Then we dive into the third untruth from The Coddling of the American Mind: Good vs. Evil — and what that really means in today’s world.

#SubjectToChangePodcast #MentalHealthJourney #OhioSports #PodcastLife

This week we’re covering a little bit of everything—starting with the second “untruth” from The Coddling of the American Mind, detouring into girls’ trips, and even taking a left turn (literally) into life as a left-hander. It’s a ride full of tangents, laughs, and surprising insights. Buckle up and ride the wave with us!

🍂 It’s the first day of fall, and things are definitely subject to change! Sarah heads out west on a solo adventure, the Monkey in the Middle shares his “concert prophecies,” and we kick off our new series diving into The Coddling of the American Mind. In this episode, we tackle the first of society’s three big untruths and how it shows up in everyday life.

We’re back! After a busy summer break, Bryon and Sarah return to kick off Season 3 with stories, updates, and a few surprises. Bryon shares highlights from his travels, while Sarah opens up about life as a brand-new empty nester. In a spontaneous moment, we cold call Sarah’s daughter to check in on college life — and yes, she actually answers! From big transitions to unexpected growth, this episode is all about catching up, embracing change, and stepping into a new season — literally and figuratively.

🎙️ Season Finale: Everything is Fine….For Now 

In our season finale, we dive deep into the novel The Absent Father Effect on Daughters—exploring how it shapes relationships, self-worth, and healing. We’re joined by a special guest, a former truck driver sharing her experiences. And we cant end the season without a travel complaint from Bryon. It’s raw, real, and the perfect close to a season of growth, laughter, and connection.

This week on Subject to Change, we're running on low battery but still showing up. We dive into what it feels like to be mentally drained and why sometimes self-reflection hits harder when you're already tired. We also give our two cents (maybe three) on the wild world of social media opinions — the good, the bad, and the absolutely unnecessary. Plus, we recap 4th of July festivities, fireworks and all, and someone may or may not have auditioned for a new sports segment (👀). As always, the only thing that's consistent is that we're subject to change.

In this episode, we sit down with  Dr. Todd Hoadley to talk about the real-world value of trade schools—and why more people are choosing hands-on careers over traditional college paths. We also dive into overcoming fear in high-pressure moments when there's no time to hesitate. Plus, Bryon shares a wild story about  jury duty? (spoiler: it got weird). This one’s about making smart moves, staying sharp, and choosing your own path. 

And shout-out to Blue Lizard Australian Sunscreen for keeping us protected while we explored the beautiful waters of the Florida Keys and the magic of the Disney Parks.

It’s Sarah’s birthday 🥳 and she’s reflecting on what it means to live with more intention this year. We’re talking about staying grounded when everything feels overwhelming, learning how to say no at work (without the guilt), and just trying to protect your peace in a chaotic world. A little personal, a little empowering—come hang out with us 🎧✨ #SubjectToChange #PodcastLife #BoundariesAreHot #BirthdayEpisode

Toxic who? We’re talking about what it’s like to finally feel peace in a relationship after only knowing chaos. From unlearning old habits to embracing soft love and solid boundaries — this one’s for anyone healing and learning to love better. It hits different, and we’re here for it.

This week, we dive headfirst into the weird and the woven: prison quilting circles, the mental spiral of chasing viral fame, and a grocery store chain trying to save the planet one recycled bag at a time. Cities are crumbling, minds are melting—and Bryon gets himself into a full-blown concert pickle. From fabric to fame to fractured sidewalks, we’re pulling the thread on everything that’s coming undone. #podcastlife #mentalhealthmatters

This is one for the heart.

In this episode of Subject to Change: Everything is FINE, we dive into familiar territory—Dad’s classic travel habits—and welcome special co-host Gerald to the mic. But that’s just the beginning. 

Sarah shares the powerful story of her mom reuniting with Bryon after 37 years. Then, we surprise Sarah’s mom with a phone call to hear her reflections on the reunion.

This isn’t just another episode—it’s a chapter in a story about healing, connection, and the quiet strength it takes to face the past. If you’ve been following Sarah’s journey, this one will stay with you. 

Smashburgers, marriage-saving donuts, suburban double dates, and spiritual ROI—this week we debate it all, including a wild proposal to abolish property taxes. Faith, food, and finances, slightly unhinged.

 This week’s episode is packed! We kick things off by talking about the buzz around the Kentucky Derby. Dad’s got some strong feelings about his recent travels (spoiler: he's not impressed). Then we dive into new legislation tackling cyber abuse—and what it means for protecting people online as well as spreading awareness about mental health hotlines. Plus, it’s Cinco de Mayo, and we’re bringing the energy! Best of all, our recent caller Britany is finally in the studio—and we couldn’t be more excited. Let’s go!

In this episode of Subject to Change: Everything is FINE, we dive into some American history and personal growth — from setting goals and practicing self-validation to asking the hard questions about government corruption. Plus, a surprise call-in guest joins the conversation, and we settle the ultimate debate: white rice or brown rice? It’s real talk, real issues, and a little food for thought.

🎙️ Episode [2.24] – McBroken

**Trigger Warning: this episode does contain content that may be sensitive in nature to some viewers.**

In this episode, we’re doing something brand new — our very first Phone a Friend segment! We called up Britany to get their take on something we just had to talk about.

Then, we dive into the complicated world of kidfluencers — the glitz, the glam, and the not-so-cute dark side of putting kids in the spotlight for likes and dollars. Should there be rules? Who’s really benefiting? We get into it.

And of course, we wrap it up with a super interesting News You Can Use segment. From the weird to the wildly useful, you don’t want to miss these nuggets of info!
