To make it to the major leagues is almost impossible. To stay at the major league level is even more unlikely. To be a day-to-day starter is of minuscule odds.

Well, today’s guest has done all that plus being voted to the 2024 National League All-Star Team! We are honored to have the starting catcher for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Will Smith, back on the show! Will is an awesome baseball player but above all of his accomplishments on the diamond and behind the plate, he is a genuine human being! This conversation is a good one and we can’t wait to see Will hit a bomb at the 2024 MLB All-Star Game! Now let’s imagine the late great Vin Scully making the announcement, “Now stepping up to the microphone on a brand new episode of This Life Ain’t For Everybody, Number 16 for the Los Angeles Dodgers, Will Smith!” This episode is brought to you by Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey, Oa

Rob welcomes his son Spencer to the show. Spencer is joining the basketball coaching world as an assistant coach. After playing Division 3 basketball, Spencer decided to go into the profession of coaching. In pursuit of this, he found a graduate assistant (GA) basketball coaching position at Vanderbilt University, a very prestigious school and a strong conference. The SEC conference has some of the best athletes, coaches and facilities in the world. The GA position is a 2-year position where you get to learn all the ins and outs of basketball at the highest level while working on a master's degree. Spencer is now joining the staff at Eastern Florida State, a junior college that has a strong tradition of sending young basketball players to the next level. We hope you enjoy this conversation with a very new coach, but one who is driven to help young players and himself rise up in the ranks.

Can Alex make $200,000 per year in today’s job market? Is he willing to start at less than that and work his way up the ladder at this point in his life?

Alex thinks that Chad’s brands have been built on passion and Chad agrees but also thinks there was a lot of risk! All of this is discussed and these questions answered on this brand new episode of Breakin’ It Down brought to you by the one and only Jack Daniel’s Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey!
