John & Tug decide that all our old habits will be the death of us. 

AC 101 Easy to Case & Kill

It comes down to this: seeking to control the stuff you can't control make you sad and prone to drink and stare at the ceiling in despair. So, why do it? 

AC 102 Total Non-control Freaks

Over too much bourbon and PBR, John and Tug successfully make the same point over and over and over and over again: To get what you really want you kinda, sorta have to know what that is in the first place. 

AC 103 Being purposeful about your purpose on purpose.

John & Tug get together over eggs and sweet cous cous to chat about their reaction to Sunday's big game ads. 

AC 104: Obligatory SB reaction

John, Tug and 1.5 million trillion cicadas take on hair club advertising and the data revolution.
