Merry Christmas & welcome to the annual Dos & D Christmas Special...although, this year we didn't get very Christmassy!  We are back from our United States Podcast tour and there is PLENTY to recap and unpack!  Before we do, we catch up on the latest Christmas Party hosting duties, settling back into life in Aus & a tease of what's to come on the episode.  But then, dive into what you haven't yet seen as part of the USA podcast tour...the biggest thing we have every done!  Hear about some of the funniest moments from New York, Miami, Austin, Las Vegas & Los Angeles including our top 5 moments of the trip (not what you'd expect) and some of the weird and wild things we did and saw.  Finally, we tease a Dos & D Christmas Quiz in the intro, however, unfortunately due to a technical glitch, we couldn't play the recording of it so forgive us. BUT, have no fear, head to last year's Christmas episode for a Christmas Quiz and a whole lot of festive content.  We hope you all have a very safe and happy Christmas and enjoy this episode of our America recap.

Brad Lea is the founder & CEO of LightSpeed VT, author, podcaster & sales expert. His podcast "Dropping Bombs" is one of the largest in the world and book "The Hard Way" is a must read for anyone in business.  What an experience it was to film this episode at LightSpeed HQ in Las Vegas, Nevada and have such an open chat with Brad which went in many different directions.  Brad is about to share with you how he rose from having no money to building a business worth over $100M and the lessons along the way. Plus, the people he proved wrong, the secret tricks to building wealth and his expert sales tips...including how he closed Tony Robbins, Grant Cardone and many other big players!  But if you're not into business, this episode will inspire you in the other facets of your life. Brad shares the mindset tricks to overcome excuses and start taking action in your life, how to change your source of income and even a glimpse into intuition and why you need to trust your gut.  Brad goes deep into his thoughts on the media, the system in general and why he feels we need to look elsewhere to overcome challenges being throw at us...and why he isn't afraid to speak out on controversial topics and conversation pieces.  Brad hits down the middle and doesn't mix his words, but you are sure to walk away pumped up and inspired to take things to a new level in your life.  On the Spot returns with a sales masterclass and we have plenty of laughs in this one too.  We can't wait for you to enjoy this one, with the legend himself, Brad Lea!    Follow Brad on Instagram @therealbradlea  Buy his book "The Hard Way" online or from all good bookstores.  Listen to his podcast "Dropping Bombs" wherever you get your podcasts from.    This episode is brought to you by Fleet Plant Hire Solutions.
