#68 Paul Mecurio- Wall Street to the Comedy Club

Today on What Got You There Sean talks with comedian Paul Mecurio. After graduating Georgetown Law School with high honors, Paul worked as a lawyer on Wall Street at a top tier international law firm and as an investment banker, executing multi-billion dollar M&A transactions for Fortune 100 companies. While on Wall Street Paul was hired by Jay Leno to write jokes for “The Tonight Show." After living a secret double life as a Wall Street lawyer/banker by day and comedian by night, Paul left Wall Street to go into entertainment full time ... if he didn't he would have had a nervous breakdown trying to keep the two worlds separate. It has been a hard road to the successful comedic career Paul has today but one he wouldn’t change. http://whatgotyouthere.com/ Vuori Clothing 25% off with discount code “WGYT” https://www.vuoriclothing.com/ GlobeKick 10% off with discount code “WGYT” https://globekick.com/ 15% off Four Sigmatic with discount code "WGYT" http://foursigmatic.com/wgyt   https://www.paulmecurio.com/ https://twitter.com/PaulMecurio   https://twitter.com/WhatGotYouThere https://www.instagram.com/whatgotyoutherepodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/whatgotyouthere/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/sean-delaney-00909190/   Intro/Outro music by Justin Great- http://justingreat.com/ Audio Engineer- Brian Lapres

#67 Boyd Varty- Life Lessons From The African Savanna

Boyd Varty had an unconventional upbringing. He grew up on Londolozi Game Reserve in South Africa, a place where man and nature strive for balance, where perils exist alongside wonders. Founded more than eighty years ago as a hunting ground, Londolozi was transformed into a nature reserve beginning in 1973 by Varty’s father and uncle, visionaries of the restoration movement. Varty shares his harrowing tales like an encounter with a black mamba, what it’s like to have a lion lock you in their gaze and run at you full speed and many other exhilarating stories.  This isn’t just a talk about animals and nature, its a story of transformation that inspires a great appreciation for the beauty and order of the natural world. With conviction, hope, and humor, Varty makes a passionate claim for the power of the wild to restore the human spirit. http://whatgotyouthere.com/   Vuori Clothing 25% off with discount code “WGYT” https://www.vuoriclothing.com/ GlobeKick 10% off with discount code “WGYT” https://globekick.com/ 15% off Four Sigmatic with discount code "WGYT" http://foursigmatic.com/wgyt   https://boydvarty.com/ https://www.londolozi.com/en/ https://twitter.com/londolozi https://www.facebook.com/londolozigamereserve https://www.instagram.com/londolozi/   https://twitter.com/WhatGotYouThere https://www.instagram.com/whatgotyoutherepodcast/ https://www.facebook.com/whatgotyouthere/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/sean-delaney-00909190/ Intro/Outro music by Justin Great- http://justingreat.com/ Audio Engineer- Brian Lapres

#61 Colin O'Brady- Explorers Grand Slam World Record Holder

Today on what got you there Sean talks with Colin O’ Brady. Before beginning his career in finance, Colin left to explore the world on a backpacking trip. While in Thailand, Colin suffered a tragic accident and was severely burned in a fire. His injuries covered nearly 25% of his body, primarily damaging his legs and feet. Doctors warned that he may not ever walk normally again, but Colin was determined to beat the odds and roughly 18 months later he completed a triathlon. He then went on to achieve numerous other incredible athletic feats including breaking the world record for conquering the Beyond 7/2 Explorers Grand Slam in just 139 days. He also summited the tallest peak on each of the seven continents and skied the last degree to the North and South Poles. Fewer than 50 people have ever completed this staggering achievement, and only four in under a year. With grit and perseverance, Colin became the fastest person to complete the mountaineering challenge, also breaking the speed record for the Seven Summits in 132 days.
