In this episode, the crew riff on fast trains, slow scoots, and faster opinions—then dive into alter egos, motivation that isn’t sugar-coated, and a petty-genius solution to gym-sauna chaos. Trevor spots a Vespa-turned-trike, Pragasen evangelizes the Brightline shuffle to Miami, and Nick unpacks real-world e-bike rules from an active case. The back half swings through Orlando eats, from beer-bar cuisine to a quiet Indian lunch spot.
# Topics Discussed:
• Helmet laws, e-bikes, and where the line actually sits
• Do we need praise to perform or is tough love cleaner fuel
• Alter ego upgrades for work, stage, and real life
• Speaker-phone vigilante justice in the sauna
• The Brightline hack to Miami with lounge perks
# Orlando Spots Mentioned
• Redlight Redlight — surprising chef-driven plates with beer
• Superica — still good, but drifting from its early peak
• Mint Indian Restaurant — quiet, reliable lunch play
• Corner Chophouse, Hannibal Square - Winter Park
# Golden Nuggets
• Know the local rules before you ride—safety and insurance beat vibes
• Build the alter ego that raises your baseline, not your mask
• Handle conflict with clever mirrors, not shouting
