How can trust be rebuilt after a partner reads your journal?
Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger. As always, I'm here with Feedback Friday producer, the Sidewalk Sandwich Board, inviting you into this bougie gastropub of delicious life conundra, Gabriel Mizrahi.
One of those gastropubs where the kombucha is like $14, obviously. Right, yeah. Well, it's house-made. It comes from a barrel we rolled in from the alleyway. That's right.
That homeless people urinate on during closing hours. That took a weird turn. Yeah. But you know, that's what happens to all those barrels in the alley. That is kind of what kombucha is, you could argue. Yeah. What's the difference at that point? There was a Chinese restaurant, I want to say, somewhere around here where they busted one of the owners crushing garlic with his bare feet. Nice.
So there's that. That has nothing to do with anything we're talking about. I just wanted to share that. Absolutely nothing, but I love it. Thank you. On the Jordan Harbinger Show, we decode the stories. Yeah, I ate there last week.
The stories, secrets, and skills of the world's most fascinating people and turn their wisdom into practical advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around you. And our mission is to help you become a better informed, more critical thinker.
During the week, we have long-form conversations with a variety of amazing folks from undercover economic hitmen, gold smugglers, Russian spies, astronauts, four-star generals, This week, we had my friend Ryan Holiday on his new book, Right Thing, Right Now. A lot of talk about integrity, how to make difficult choices. Just great conversation with Ryan Holiday.
I think he's been on probably more than any other guest on the show. And I always enjoy, I always learn so much from him. I always enjoy my conversations with him. I think he will as well. We also had a Skeptical Sunday last Sunday on traditional Chinese medicine. On Fridays, though, we share stories, offer advice, compare Gabe to quaint analog marketing tactics.
Before we kick off, a funny story I remembered the other day, Gabe. So about 20 years ago, I was going on a cruise with my girlfriend and her family, and I didn't have a flight. So I drove to Miami with my college roommate, because he had a cruise too, and I ended up getting there a day early. I guess they had their cruise left a day early.
So I had to sleep in the lobby of a hotel until it was the earliest time that the boat opened up and I could actually board. So I get there and they let me check in early. And it was like they had no room, but they made an exception because I was like, I'm basically homeless and I'm just going to wait by this weird ramp unless you let me on the boat. And they're like, all right, fine.
