In This Episode:
It’s still Monday night and that means it’s another New Episode Night on the Richest Men in Town (better late than never!). This week Mike and Tyler invite back one of their favorite guests of all time. Brian Grow returns to RMIT one year since his classic episode and he’s feeling all kinds of reflective. The guys get into everything from growing gardens and eating squash (even Mike’s doing it!) to “fog happiness” and seeking through study. Brian is learning the lessons that life with his wife Becki and his three kids (7, 4, and 1) has to teach him and his cup runneth over. Good thing he is getting good at sharing. The guys sure are taking notes. You can too.

Our problem is that we often expect instantaneous solutions to such challenges, forgetting that frequently the heavenly virtue of patience is required.” -Thomas S. Monson
- “We’re all going to die, all of us, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn’t. We are terrorized and flattened by trivialities, we are eaten up by nothing.” –Charles Bukowski
