#1 - What is Padcast?

Welcome to the first episode of The Brandon Fogal Show - a hub for electrifying content, engaging discussions, and groundbreaking thoughts. Prepare yourself for an enlightening experience as host Brandon Fogal bares it all in this introductory episode, sharing the extraordinary personal journey which led to the inception of this show.
Unfiltered, real, and raw, Brandon begins by sharing a challenge he conquered in 2023 - quitting drinking. This personal victory lit a spark in him and soon gave birth to an idea - The Pad. His dream was to build a communal space providing various recreational activities, designed to foster a sense of belonging and community. Unfortunately, turning this dream into reality proved a daunting task.
Undeterred by initial hurdles, Brandon evolves his concept from the physical to the virtual realm, to replicate the impact it was intended to have. So, was born the Padcast, a virtual manifestation of the initial idea, opening up an inclusive platform for people from all walks of life. The Padcast, much like mortar filling in the gaps between bricks, aims to connect people, cultivate relationships, and build a community.
While the physical manifestation of the Pad remains the North Star, Padcast serves as the launchpad, offering a place to decompress, launching ideas, and encouraging everyone to make a positive impact in their spheres of influence. As we march towards our North Star, the journey is just as important, if not more, than the destination.
Get ready to be a part of this unique movement. Even if you're isolated or feeling lost, the Padcast invites you to be part of our community. Despite the digital platform being our immediate reality, the eventual goal remains to create physical places we can land together.
Join the journey, and be part of the beginning of something great on The Brandon Fogal Show. Let's embark on this revolutionary journey together!

The Intro to The Brandon Fogal Show

Let’s Set the World Ablaze Together

This is the Beginning, Ground Zero for The Brandon Fogal Show. In this show, we're not just discussing topics detachedly but passionately delving into the real, raw and relatable aspects of life. Our mission is to inspire a culture of action over idle talk, to inspire the will to strive ahead without waiting for conditions to be ‘perfect’.
We firmly believe in the principle of 'failing upwards', learning from non-successes and evolving with every step. We want the show to be a source of infectious energy which then you can channel into your lives and propagate further. At our core, we aim to fuel the fire of passion and drive in you, to inspire you to be more than a passive bystander in the grand dance of life.
This show celebrates the concept of mutual growth and continuous self-improvement. We aspire to foster an environment where everyone inspires and pushes each other to be better, to keep the flame of passion burning tirelessly. Our journey is both individual and shared, a collective embrace of our passions and dreams, knowing there is no limit to what we can achieve together.
We hope to inspire you differently, challenging the fundamental belief that we are a ‘finished product’. We subscribe to the idea of being evolving and capable of continuous growth and improvement. Let's kindle each other's passion, set ourselves on fire, and together, set the world ablaze, all while enjoying the journey of doing what we truly love.
