Current Episode

"Well, fck!"Sometimes, all you can do is shake your head, sigh, and say, Well, fck.*That was me when I realized the podcast episode Jason and I recorded—one we were both really excited about—was completely lost due to file corruption.But instead of fixating on what was gone, I took a step back. Because this is exactly what mindfulness is about—handling disappointment in a way that doesn’t consume us.In this episode, I explore:-The immediate frustration of losing the episode and Jason’s simple but powerful reaction: “Freaking Zoom.”
-Why mindfulness isn’t about ignoring frustration, but acknowledging it without attachment
-The role of impermanence in how we handle loss, big or small
-How shifting focus from what’s lost to what still remains changes everything
-The importance of humour, connection, and perspective when things go wrong
We lost the recording, but we didn’t lose the experience of the conversation. And that’s something worth remembering—not just for podcasts, but for life in general.If you’ve ever had a moment where things completely fell apart, this episode is for you.To connect with AC, visit his Facebook www.facebook.com/fischer.acb or TikTok www.tiktok.com/@acfischerpodTo connect with Jason, visit his Facebook www.facebook.com/Dyceman or TikTok www.tiktok.com/@podverseVisit our YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/@inthebloodpodIf you'd like to financially support this project for as little as $5, please visit www.buymeacoffee.com/inthebloodpodFinally, if you're interested in booking coaching sessions with AC and/or Jason, you can do so by emailing [email protected].📌 New episode available now on all major podcast platforms or by clicking here

Current Episode

Wind Of ChangeWhen I started Call Me Tony, I wanted to let listeners get to know me as my friends do. That meant sharing my stories, reflections, and personal experiences. But recently, I’ve realized that I’ve been holding back.I’ve avoided sharing some of my strongest opinions—not because I don’t have them, but because I didn’t want people to judge me based on a difference in perspective. But the truth is, my opinions and the way I express them are just as much a part of me as my personal stories.In this episode, I talk about why I’m done filtering myself, what this shift means for the future of the podcast, and why embracing the risk of honesty is the only way forward.If you’re here for real conversations, I appreciate you. Let’s see where this goes.🎧 Listen now.Episode is available on major platforms or by clicking here
