Created, hosted, and edited by Erik Slader (author of the "Epic Fails" history book series), co-hosted with fellow podcasters, Chris Carroll, and Justin Ache. (Recommended for ages 13 and up due to some mild language, occasional crude humor, as well as discussions of war, disasters, and historical facts.)We Can Make This Work Probably World

    E39.5 - Cross-Country Road Trip / Overcoming Life's Hardships / 2025 Updates
    May 30 2025

    "Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference." - The Serenity Prayer


    On this mini-episode, Erik recaps several months of chaos, including an impromptu cross-country road trip / rescue mission from Green Cove Springs, Florida to San Francisco, California and back - while reflecting on some personal life lessons on overcoming life's obstacles, and staying positive during the tough times.
