About this listen
In this episode, Travis and Robert pick up right where they left off, continuing the conversation around habits and systems for 2026.
Travis starts things off with a few shout-outs—including a very important one to the man who invented a tool that cuts butter (respect where it’s due 🧈). Rob briefly addresses the elephant in the room… yes, the black eye.
From there, the guys finally dig into the real topic of the day: why new habits are so hard to keep. Travis opens up about struggling to maintain a new cooking habit, and together they break down what isn’t working, why it keeps falling apart, and what systems might actually help it stick this month.
If you’ve ever set a new habit with good intentions—only to watch it slowly fade—this episode offers honest reflection, practical ideas, and realistic solutions for busy dads heading into a new year.
🎧 Real talk, real systems, and a reminder that habits don’t fail… systems do.
