Why do some of us talk things out… while others shut down? Why do some people feel comfortable expressing emotions… while others were taught to “tough it out”?

In this episode of Got It Podcast, we dive into the powerful ways our parents’ parenting styles shaped the adults we became.

From strict households to laid-back homes, emotionally open parents to the classic “figure it out yourself” approach, we explore how different upbringings influence everything from relationships and confidence to how we handle conflict and raise our own kids.

Mario also shares personal insights as a father raising a son with autism while navigating life with ADHD showing how today’s parents are often trying to break cycles, learn new approaches, and do better than the generation before us.

Because at the end of the day, none of our parents had a manual… and most of us are still figuring it out.

This conversation gets honest, funny, and real about the differences in how we were raised—and how those differences show up in our lives today.

In this week’s episode of the Got It Podcast, Mario and Pat flip the script and dive into the question: How well do people actually know men? From relationships and expectations to the things men say versus what they really mean, the conversation gets honest, funny, and sometimes a little uncomfortable.

They break down the stereotypes surrounding men, the pressure guys often feel but rarely talk about, and why communication between men and women can sometimes feel like two completely different languages. Along the way, Mario and Pat share personal stories, real-life situations, and a few moments that might make you rethink what you thought you knew about the male mind.

Whether you’re a man trying to explain yourself or someone trying to understand the men in your life, this episode brings humor, honesty, and perspective to a conversation that doesn’t happen nearly enough.

Do we really “get” men… or are we all just guessing?

This week, Pat and Mario challenge each other: Do men really know women… or are we just guessing confidently?

They break down common misunderstandings, relationship blind spots, emotional cues, and why “nothing” never actually means nothing.

Expect laughs, uncomfortable realizations, and a few moments where the guys admit… we might not be as dialed in as we think

This week, Mario and Pat go all in on the realities of loving someone from miles away. They talk about: The mental side of being apart Jealousy and insecurity (yeah, we’re saying it) How communication changes when physical presence is gone Whether distance builds connection… or exposes cracks And the question nobody wants to ask: Are some relationships only good because of the distance? Mario opens up about what distance really does to a man emotionally — especially when life, kids, business, and stress are already in the mix. Pat challenges the idea of “if it’s meant to be, it’ll work” and breaks down what actually keeps long distance alive.

We’ve all heard the phrase “make-up sex” but what’s really going on underneath it? In this episode, Pat & Mario unpack the emotional psychology behind reconnecting physically after conflict. Is it genuine repair, a release of tension, or a way to avoid the harder conversations?

We talk about vulnerability, ego, attachment, and why intimacy can feel so intense after an argument. When does make-up sex actually bring couples closer… and when does it quietly mask unresolved issues?

This is an honest, thoughtful conversation about communication, emotional safety, and learning the difference between connection and distraction. If you’ve ever wondered why the closeness hits differently after a fight, this episode is for you.

On this episode of the Got It Podcast, Pat and Mario get real about the moments that feel like everything is falling apart: failed relationships, lost jobs, missed opportunities, and the quiet self-doubt that follows. They talk openly about how those painful endings often carry hidden direction pushing us toward growth, clarity, and paths we never would’ve chosen otherwise.

With honesty, humor, and a few hard truths, this conversation is for anyone who’s been knocked down and is wondering “What now?” If you’re in a season of loss, confusion, or transition, this episode reminds you that sometimes failure isn’t a setback it’s a redirection toward something better.

We believe the hard truth, when it’s said with honesty and care, is what actually helps people grow. Not the sugar-coated version. Not the highlight reel. The real stuff.

On this podcast, we talk about life, business, mental health, relationships, and the moments that test you because pretending everything’s fine doesn’t move anyone forward. Sometimes the most loving thing you can do is say what needs to be said. If you’re looking for real talk, accountability, and conversations that actually mean something, you’re in the right place. You’ve got it.

This Week on the Got It Podcast: Mario and Pat tackle the wild adventure of being in a relationship with someone like Mario who has ADHD also known as “loving a person who can lose their phone, their keys, and their train of thought… all before breakfast.”

They break down the chaos, the comedy, the misunderstandings, and the moments where you wonder if you’re dating a partner or a tornado with a heartbeat. From emotional whiplash to hyperfocus superpowers, they unpack what really goes on behind the scenes and why it’s still worth every bit of the madness.

If you’ve ever loved someone with ADHD (Mario), this episode will make you laugh, nod your head, and maybe rethink the hiding places for your car keys.
