On this 30 Minute Thursday episode, the Curious Canadian and Kathryn Hurley dive into the latest in pop culture while giving a behind-the-scenes look at life in their new home.

It’s equal parts business, pop culture, and comedy.

This week on Trading Secrets, Sistersnacking joins the show to dish on everything behind the scenes of the food influencer world. From their go-to favorite restaurants to the wildest brand deals they’ve ever landed, nothing is off the table. They break down how they actually make money in the food industry, what brands don’t want you to know, and the hustle it takes to turn snacking into a serious business. Plus, they open up about what’s next—hinting at the possibility of creating their own cookbook and sharing the kind of recipes their audience has been begging for.

This episode of 30 Minute Thursdays features the Curious Canadian stepping in for Jason alongside Blake Horstmann, diving into the evolving DJ world—from turning a passion into a career to the realities of breaking into the industry—before shifting into a full Coachella recap, covering everything from behind-the-scenes insights and festival culture to a firsthand breakdown of Justin Bieber’s headline-making performance, all in a fast-paced, fun, and easy-to-follow 30-minute conversation.

This week, Jason is joined by Matt Halper and Eli Sones — the duo behind Two Friends, for a conversation on how they turned a college hobby into one of the most successful independent DJ brands in the world.Starting as best friends making music for fun in middle school and college, Matt and Eli share how they took a leap after graduation with no real income, betting on themselves in an industry dominated by record labels. What began as small gigs paying a few thousand dollars quickly evolved into a global touring business but not without years of uncertainty, financial risk, and reinvestment.They break down the real business of being a DJ today,  revealing why the majority of their revenue doesn’t come from music, but from live shows, brand partnerships, and building an experience-driven brand. From early days barely breaking even to landing six-figure deals and major residencies in Las Vegas, they explain how they scaled strategically while staying independent.They also dive into the viral success of their Big Booty Mixes and why, despite millions of listeners, they’ve never made a dollar directly from them. Instead, they reveal how free content became their most powerful marketing engine, driving ticket sales, brand deals, and a loyal fanbase around the world.Jason and the guys also explore the future of music and technology, including how AI is changing the creative process and lowering the barrier to entry for new artists and what that means for the next generation of creators.Matt and Eli reveal all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

This week, Jason is joined by Jesse Solomon — reality TV star, creator, investor, and now touring musician — for a conversation on what happens when your life, income, and identity all scale at once.After first appearing on Summer House, Jesse shares how his career has rapidly evolved over the last 18 months — walking away from a traditional finance path and stepping fully into the world of entertainment, social media, and entrepreneurship. What started as a TV opportunity has turned into a multi-million dollar business, fueled by brand deals, investments, and a growing digital platform.Jesse breaks down the financial side of fame — from crossing seven figures in annual income to landing brand deals worth six figures for just a handful of posts. He explains how the creator economy really works behind the scenes, why attention is the most valuable asset you can have, and how he’s thinking about long-term wealth through a mix of traditional investments, crypto, and startup equity.He also opens up about the less glamorous side of the business — the pressure of constantly being “on,” the unpredictability of income, and the reality that everything can change overnight.Beyond the numbers, Jesse dives into the mental shift that’s come with being in the public eye — learning to deal with criticism, letting go of validation, and becoming more comfortable being fully himself on and off camera. He reflects on how his mindset has evolved from needing approval to focusing on authenticity, and why that’s been the key to both personal and professional growth.Jesse also shares a transparent look into his newest venture: music. Despite making millions elsewhere, he explains why he’s currently losing money pursuing it — investing heavily in production, touring, and development — and why he sees it as a long-term bet on himself. From sold-out shows that still lose money to the grind of building a fanbase from scratch, he breaks down what it really takes to chase a passion at scale.Jason and Jesse also get into lifestyle and money habits — from why he chooses renting over buying, to how he avoids lifestyle creep despite increasing income, and the importance of maintaining financial discipline even when money is flowing.On the personal side, Jesse opens up about dating, relationships, and what he’s looking for in a partner, as well as how his perspective on life has shifted years after battling cancer — allowing him to live more freely, take bigger risks, and think long-term about his future.From reality TV to real money, and from passion projects to long-term wealth building, Jesse gives a raw and honest look at what it means to capitalize on opportunity while staying grounded through it all.Jesse reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

This week, Jason is joined by founder of Wags & Walks Nashville, animal welfare advocate, and his girlfriend, Kathryn Hurley!Born and raised in Plymouth, Michigan, Kathryn shares how her passion for animal rescue started early — from working at her family’s ice cream shop to dedicating her life to saving dogs. After graduating from Eastern Michigan, she followed her instincts into dog rescue, eventually making the leap to Los Angeles to work with Wags & Walks, where she quickly became a key part of the organization’s growth.Kathryn opens up about the financial realities of working in nonprofit — starting out making just $26,000 a year — and the difficult decision to leave for a higher-paying job in sports media, only to return after realizing her true purpose was in rescue. From there, she shares how she built Wags & Walks Nashville from the ground up — starting in her basement, then a storage unit, to now running a full-scale operation with 40+ employees and saving thousands of dogs.She breaks down the business behind animal rescue — from fundraising millions annually just to operate, to the harsh realities of overcrowded shelters, euthanasia rates, and the misconceptions around pit bulls. Kathryn also dives into the medical side of rescue, explaining how organizations like hers step in where the system fails — covering surgeries, saving critically injured dogs, and even reuniting pets with families who otherwise couldn’t afford care.Beyond rescue, Kathryn and Jason share the story of how they met — through Wags & Walks — and how their relationship evolved from adopting Teddy to building a life together. They talk about communication, partnership, social media, and what it really takes to build a strong, healthy relationship.From saving dogs to building a nonprofit from scratch, Kathryn gives an honest look at passion, purpose, and what it means to fight for something bigger than yourself.Kathryn reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

They revisit the latest “Jason Tells All” episode, dive into ongoing Bachelor Nation drama, and share updates on Jason’s new house and evolving chapter of life.

With candid conversations, honest reflections, and quick-hitting insights, this episode gives listeners an unfiltered perspective on both the public story and what’s happening beneath the surface.

This week, Jason is joined by a very familiar guest — himself — as David Arduin returns to the host chair for the annual JTA recap episode!In this raw and reflective conversation, Jason opens up about what 2025 really looked like behind the scenes — from the emotional chaos he was sitting in during last year’s recap, to the clarity, peace, and confidence he feels now. He looks back on the predictions he got completely wrong, including being convinced he’d be out of Nashville, and explains how life ended up taking a very different turn in the best possible way.Jason shares what changed most in his personal life, why he’s finally stopped overexplaining himself, and how this season feels different from anything he’s experienced before. He talks about finding real alignment, what he now values more than career growth or social media milestones, and why 2026 feels less like survival mode and more like building the life he actually wants.On the business side, Jason breaks down the biggest year yet for both Trading Secrets and Rewired Talent Agency. He shares how the podcast continues to grow beyond Bachelor Nation, why the agency had a record-setting year, and how his own brand generated millions through major partnerships, speaking, and strategic niche positioning. He also gives a brutally honest look at the creator economy, what makes talent marketable, and why follower count means a lot less than most people think.Jason also reveals the details behind buying his first home in Nashville, how he negotiated the deal, why this moment means so much at 37 years old, and what it represents in the bigger picture of where his life is heading. From relationships and self-worth to business growth, money, and long-term vision, this episode is one of the most honest JTA recaps yet.Jason reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

This week, Jason is joined by Olympian, gold medalist, and PWHL star Hayley Scamurra! A key member of Team USA’s women’s hockey team, Hayley opens up about what it took to reach the top of her sport — from years of elite training and representing her country on the biggest stage in the world, to finally bringing home Olympic gold. Growing up in Buffalo with NHL roots, Hayley shares how her dream of becoming an Olympian started early, and how that vision carried her through the grind of college hockey, professional uncertainty, and years of fighting for a real future in women’s hockey. Hayley breaks down the emotional difference between winning silver and winning gold, what it was really like inside the Olympic Village, and the mindset she used to stay calm in the biggest game of her life against Canada. She also shares the business side of women’s hockey — from playing professionally for almost no money, to helping pave the way for the PWHL, navigating trades, free agency, and the continued fight for fair pay and better opportunities for women in sports. She also talks about the support system behind her success, the role mental training played in changing her career, and why she believes athletes should never settle for the bare minimum when they know they deserve more. From gold medal moments to the future of women’s hockey, Hayley gives an honest look at both the dream and the grind behind it.

This week, Jason is joined by one of the most influential voices in American economics — Austan Goolsbee, President and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago!In a rare and time-sensitive episode, Jason goes straight to the source on what’s happening in the economy right now — so timely, in fact, the Fed required the episode to be released before their next meeting. Austan breaks down what the Federal Reserve actually does (and what it doesn’t), why Chicago has its own Fed, and how monetary policy decisions get made behind the scenes — from interest rates and inflation to employment and consumer spending.Austan also opens up about his path from University of Chicago professor to the White House, including how a personal connection with Barack Obama turned into a front-row seat during one of the most intense economic moments in modern history. He shares what surprised him most about policymaking in Washington, the pressure of making massive decisions with limited information, and why having diverse perspectives — your own “personal board of directors” — matters more than people realize.They get into why consumers still feel crushed by prices even when inflation cools, what’s driving the strength of the economy, and why housing affordability may be the biggest long-term issue facing younger generations. Austan even reveals what he considers the ultimate trading secret — and why, despite everything that can go wrong in the world, long-term investing has historically rewarded patience and belief in human innovation.Austan reveals all this and more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!

This week, Jason is joined by the hilarious Corporate Bro, Ross Pomerantz! He is someone who has lived in the high pressure, high performance world of corporate fiance and selling at Oracle and actually has the scars and stories to prove it. Ross brings a real unfiltered hilarious perspective in what enterprise sales really looks like behind the scenes. From ambition and burnout to the funny trade-offs nobody talks about unless you’re deep in it, he is covering it all. He is a speaker, investor, entrepreneur, and massive creator.  Ross breaks down everything from playing two seasons of Single-A pro baseball to selling luxury apartments in Oakland during Occupy Wall Street, and the identity shift from athlete to enterprise sales at Oracle. He shares what it was like training to cold call, navigating an identity crisis, and clarifying that “Corporate Bro” was always meant to satirize the industry — not glorify it — after getting his start on Vine in 2013. We dive into spending a decade in sales before business school, negotiating lessons, trusting timing, and earning admission to Stanford, along with the fear of fully committing to content creation and how he scripts and produces highly shareable videos with his team. He also talks about appearing in a Super Bowl commercial alongside Matthew McConaughey for Salesforce, leveraging opportunities on LinkedIn, his speaking business, co-hosting a podcast with Corporate Natalie, angel investing, building alongside his wife, and what’s next.Ross reveals all this and so much more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!Host: Jason TartickCo-Host: David ArduinAudio: John GurneyGuest: Corporate Bro Ross Pomerantz Stay connected with the Trading Secrets Podcast! Instagram: @tradingsecretspodcast Youtube: Trading SecretsFacebook: Join the Group Trading Secrets Steals & Deals!Momentous:Momentous Fiber+ addresses one of the most overlooked foundations of long-term performance: gut health.

This week, Jason is joined by two of the most inspiring Detroit Lions fans you’ll ever meet — Harry and Dan — in a special on-the-field episode recorded inside Ford Field after the Lions surprised Harry with an unforgettable day. Jason shares how a spontaneous Super Bowl concourse moment with Harry and Dan went viral for one simple reason: pure joy. But the story quickly became bigger — Harry’s family reached out to reveal he’s currently battling inoperable cancer, undergoing chemo to extend time, with no guarantee he’ll make it to next season. What followed was a wave of support that reached the Detroit Lions, leading to a private tour, special messages, and a reminder of what can happen when the internet actually rallies around something good. Harry opens up about being overwhelmed by the attention, and why his approach to life has always been rooted in finding the good in every day, staying positive through the hard moments, and treating people with kindness and respect. Dan reflects on what makes Harry so loved — that he makes every interaction about the other person, and genuinely wants everyone around him to have a great day. Harry also talks about his career in the glass business and the rare kind of loyalty you almost never hear about anymore: after his diagnosis, his employer at Weather Guard Window Company gave him a written promise that he’d always have a job there, supporting him fully through treatment and time off when needed. Jason and David wrap with a powerful takeaway: the “power of humanity” is real — and Harry’s light is proof that a single moment of kindness can ripple into thousands of people reconnecting with gratitude, perspective, and the people they love. Harry and Dan reveal all this and more in another episode you can’t afford to miss!
