Welcome to the daily fill with me your host Richard Ducat
Today's episode is dedicated to my wife! Anyone that's married to an entrepreneur can agree with me when I say. IT ain't no joke!
I have to be honest, I'm a workaholic and my wife puts up with 20 hour days almost regularly. I am constantly struggling to find time for them let alone myself is almost impossible and I would be crazy if I said it doesn't take a toll on both sides. So, to all my spouses dealing with a workaholic... This goes out to you!

Something we never talk about on the podcast is fitness and for a while now I have been working on the best fitness regime for my lifestyle and to assist my playing. After a long last few weeks at looking at gym alternatives, I can tell you that it's not easy to build a home gym that works for both a drummer and mom. We have looked at ellipticals, bikes, treadmills, and benches. It has been insane. Ultimately, I settled on some kettle bells and a pair of ropes. A few years ago I had a bad ass trainer give me some rope exercises and ultimately we realized you could practice rudiments with the ropes. I'm taking the Pepsi challenge on this one and I will keep you all up to date. I think it's important that you take proactive action now on your health now and focus on staying fit so you can always play the kit. Fit for the kit!

I want to know what you're doing to stay in shape and specifically what you are doing to improve your playing!
PODCAST OF THE DAY!
Tim Buell - episode #45 and last weeks episode!
I would be a fool to drop all this info on Zack and his Drummers Guidto Speedmetal without a little podcast love! This podcast was really the beginning of what has become a tightly knit friendship and this episode bleeds inspiration. Zack has a lot going for him behind the drum kit but it's his state of mind, approach to life's hardships, strategic planning, and drive that enable him to be so successful.
