CHAOS Chronicles – We Expose Madness & Deliver Solutions
Tired of Same Old Debates?
... or watching leaders spin their wheels, and seeing organizations Tiresomely Use Recurring Debates (aka TURD) instead of actually fixing things? - Yeah, we're tired of it too.
That’s why we launched CHAOS Chronicles—a no-BS podcast that calls out complacency, crushes outdated mindsets, and challenges norms with humor, honesty, and a much-needed reality check.
CHAOS: Control Havoc - Achieve Operational Success
Being a TURD is easy. Taking action is hard. But the people who break through the cycle are the ones who quit waiting for permission and start making things happen.
Success: folks like Taylor Sheridan (built an empire instead of begging Hollywood for approval) or Keanu Reeves (ignored industry norms and let his work speak for itself). They didn’t sit around in strategy meetings for years. They just did the Damn work!
Calling Them Out
Action beats talk. Solutions beat excuses. Real leaders aren’t the ones debating; they’re the ones out there building, fixing, and leading.
Your Move: Are you embracing CHAOS?
Or are you comfortable with a TURD?

Together Brian & Ken break down:
✔ The leadership failures holding businesses, nonprofits, and communities back.
✔ The broken systems that continue "beating a dead horse".
Think... never fixing an issue so they still have "purpose".
✔ The corporate and social chaos that keeps people stuck in cycles of nonsense.
From small business to Big

Think... never fixing an issue so they still have "purpose".
✔ The corporate and social chaos that keeps people stuck in cycles of nonsense.
From small business to Big Business and from non-profits to city leaders - these two hold nothing back.
No TURD is safe.
