Whiskey with Jackie James

Season 1 Finale: 5 Things I Learned From Creating a Podcast

Eric LeGrand is a sports broadcaster, motivational speaker, author, and one of the strongest people I know. As a standout high school football star, Eric suffered a severe spinal injury while playing and was paralyzed from the neck down. That didn’t stop him though! After his injury, Eric was offered the final spot on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers roster and signed his official NFL contract. He also received ESPN's prestigious Jimmy V Award for Perseverance as he launched his career in motivational speaking, analyzing football games, and authoring BELIEVE: The Tackle That Changed My Life. Eric continues to inspire while encouraging us to get out of our comfort zones and ask the tough questions. In this episode, we do just that as we discuss uncomfortable topics, the importance of habits and routine, constant learning, my struggle with self-discipline, trusting others, and holding ourselves accountable. You can learn more about Eric at https://www.instagram.com/ericlegrand52/ and http://www.teamlegrand.org/ and buy his book at https://www.amazon.com/shop/jackiejames. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/whiskey-with-jackie-james/message

Special: My Mistakes and Misconceptions re. Black Lives Matter

In this episode, I’d like to share a little personal progress report with you on creating this podcast. I'll tell you what I learned this past week, give you a glimpse of where I'm at today, and where I see us going. Would LOVE to hear your input and topic / interview suggestions so please email me at jackie@jackiejames.com or send me a DM on Instagram at @JackieJames. Thanks, y'all and cheers!   Our whiskey word of the day is ABV, also known as “alcohol by volume”. ABV is the standard measure of how much alcohol, or ethanol, is contained in a given volume of a whiskey or a spirit. And then there’s the term “proof”. Proof is defined as twice the alcohol (ethanol) content by volume. So, that’s what it means when you look at your bottle of bourbon and it says 40% ABV and 80 proof or in my case, it usually has a minimum of 50% ABV and 100 proof… cause yeah, I like my brown juice strong :)  --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/whiskey-with-jackie-james/message
