Start Listening to the Business Wars Podcast
I recently started listening to a podcast called “Business Wars”, which is produced by Wondery (I started listening after hearing a bunch of ads for it on “How I Built This”). Each season of Business Wars dives into a different business competition, with recent seasons being Pixar vs. Disney and Apple vs. Microsoft. The format…

When is the Best Time to Buy San Francisco 49ers Playoff Tickets
Buying sports tickets is hard, as there is no exact science on when the best time to purchase them are. Sometimes the best time to buy them is the day of the game, whereas other times it can be before the date for the game is even set. When I was trying to buy 49ers…

Buying Apple Accessories from ESR Instead of Apple
As someone who has a ton of Apple devices, I am well aware of the temptation to stay within the Apple ecosystem. This includes accessories like Airpods, phone cases, dongles, etc. When I recently bought an IPad Air though, I did some thorough research about the best cases for it. I was looking for a…

Best Websites to Use: Vivid Seats
While in a previous post I recommended to use Tickpick when buying sports tickets, Vivid Seats is another fantastic option that I have come across. Tickpick is still cheaper most of the time for seats, but Vivid Seats is running a promotion (I am not sure if it is for a limited time or not)…

Best Podcasts to Listen to: Hidden Brain
While I tend to keep the same podcasts on rotation, every now and then I will venture out and try to look for a new one (most of the time this happens when my regularly scheduled podcasts aren’t released and I run out of content to listen to). The newest podcast that I started listening…

If you have ever tired learning a language, oftentimes the most difficult thing to do is to practice speaking consistently. Unless you have people around you who speak the language and are willing to practice, it is difficult to find ways to improve your speaking skills. One app that I have found helpful for learning…

Best Non-Fiction Books to Read: The Club: How The English Premier League Became the Richest, Most Disruptive Force in Sports (Joshua Robinson and Jonathan Clegg)
Soccer is not my preferred sport of choice to watch or play, but it is undeniably the most popular sport in the world. The Premier League is the highest professional soccer league in England, and it is one of, if not THE biggest soccer league in the world. It comprises of 20 teams at a…
