https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-deep-dive--7181062Owen and Blake explore the ideas that matter through thoughtful discussions shaped by interviews, books, podcasts, personal experiences, and hard-earned lessons.

Some conversations examine achievement and discipline. Others explore setbacks, uncertainty, changing priorities, personal growth, and the complicated path between who we are and who we want to become.
Expect honest questions, different perspectives, stories, disagreements, and conversations that take their time instead of rushing toward easy answers.

The Deep Dive is for curious listeners who enjoy reflective discussions about life, success, failure, and the lessons hidden between them.
