Coffee, Travel, Sports & Creativity—10 Things Worth Checking Out This Week

Happy Thursday,

Here are 10 things worth sharing this week:

1️⃣ Evening Routine Update

Phone off by 8 PM. Used to fall asleep to a podcast or Netflix on my iPad. Trying to swap screens for books. Work in progress. Got a tip?

2️⃣ What I’m Watching

📺 Orange Is the New Black—still holds up.

🎥 The Pitt & Eastern Gate (HBO Max). Both gripping.

📺 Braylen Out Loud (HBO Max & TLC). A raw, real journey of self-discovery.

3️⃣ The 70% Rule

If it’s 70% good, ship it. Perfection is a trap. More on this.

4️⃣ Travel Planning

Venice, Lake Como, Lauterbrunnen. May trip. Any must-sees?

5️⃣ Coming Soon

Best Coffee Beans I’ve Ordered Online
My 25 Favorite Golf Courses
🏌️‍♂️ The Good & Bad of Playing the World’s Best Golf Courses

6️⃣ Book Recommendation

📖 Steal Like an Artist—Creativity isn’t about originality. It’s about remixing. Steal what you love. Make something new.

7️⃣ Coffee Upgrade

Moka Pot + this grinder = better mornings.

8️⃣ A 7-Day Challenge?

Less TV, more intention. Not quitting—just cutting back. Anyone tried this?

9️⃣ Ohio State Football Moves

Big hires in Brian Hartline & Matt Patricia for Ohio State’s coaching staff. Could change everything.

🔟 Best Coffee Cities in the U.S.?

Seattle? Portland? LA? What’s the best coffee city? Reply and let me know.

That’s it. If something here sparked a thought, hit reply.

Until next Thursday,
Jeff
