Frequency with Rick Jordan

Rick sits down with Jason Applewhite of Bimini Hydrotherapy to talk about something most people do not think about until their body starts forcing the conversation. You still have work to do, people depending on you, and a life you want to live... so what happens when your body stops cooperating?

In this conversation Jason, an engineer who helped develop products for companies including Dell and NASA before moving into oxygen nanobubble technology, explains how an industrial technology eventually became something his own father started using for recovery. That experience pulled Jason into a much bigger conversation about oxygen, aging, chronic pain, athletic recovery, biohacking, and why people keep looking for another pill, peptide, cold plunge, or supplement before questioning the basics underneath all of it.

Some of the outcomes Jason describes are dramatic, including experiences reported by athletes, people with circulation problems, and other users of Bimini’s technology. Rick and Jason are careful at points to distinguish those observations from claims of curing disease, but the larger question is harder to ignore: if longevity is supposed to mean living longer, what is the point if your body cannot keep up with the life you wanted those extra years for?

In this interview you’ll learn
Why Jason believes oxygen deserves more attention in the longevity and recovery conversation
How technology built for industrial applications ended up being tested on his own father
What professional athletes are looking for when recovery starts getting harder later in their careers
Why Jason thinks biohacking can become another extreme when people forget the basics
The bigger question behind longevity when simply living longer is no longer enough

Rick sits down with former Major League Baseball player Ryan Roberts, who spent nine seasons in the majors but says he never really felt like he had “made it.” Even after reaching a level almost every young player dreams about, the pressure simply changed from getting there to proving he deserved to stay.

In this conversation Ryan talks about being called up and sent down 17 times, the mentality that kept him going through years of uncertainty, and the line he carried with him throughout his career: people could watch him fail, but he never wanted them to watch him quit. He also opens up about choosing his family when baseball stopped fitting the life he wanted, then going from professional stadiums to construction sites, a coffee shop, entrepreneurship, and eventually building RIVYN and launching COREFLO after his own experience with stress, caffeine, and a heart attack.

In this interview you’ll learn:
Why Ryan says reaching Major League Baseball never made him feel like he had finally arrived
What being called up and sent down 17 times taught him about pressure and uncertainty
Why becoming a dad eventually changed the way he looked at ambition and success
How a former MLB player ended up doing construction, running a coffee shop, and starting over
What his experience with caffeine, stress, and a heart attack changed about the way he thinks about energy

Your get left on read. Your emails are ghosted. The deal is sitting there. You keep following up, adding more context, explaining yourself better... and somehow the message keeps getting longer while you get zero response.

In this episode Rick breaks down the communication rule he learned from working with lawyers and eventually brought into sales, customer service, internal communication, and meetings.

Put the ask first.

Rick argues that burying what you actually need underneath paragraphs of explanation is not more professional or more considerate. It makes the other person work to figure out why you contacted them in the first place. The uncomfortable part is how often people blame the customer, the prospect, or the person who “ghosted” them without looking at the message they sent.

Rick shows how one or two clear sentences at the top can change the entire interaction, whether you need a decision, an answer, or somebody to finally move the deal forward.

What Rick explores in this episode:
Why your prospect may stop reading long before they reach the actual ask
How overexplaining can quietly stall a sale that was already moving forward
Why being direct can feel rude even when it respects the other person’s time
The one or two sentences Rick wants at the top of almost every sales follow up
How to structure emails and texts so people know exactly what decision you need

Rick sits down with Chris Josephs, co-founder of Autopilot and the creator behind the viral Pelosi Stock Tracker, to confront a question millions of Americans are asking: Is congressional stock trading rigged?

In this conversation, Chris reveals the Pelosi Tesla trade that first caught his attention, how “trade like a politician” became one of finance’s most provocative ideas, and why Autopilot grew from tracking public disclosures into a marketplace where investors can automatically follow proven stock pickers. They also examine the congressional trading restrictions passed by the House on July 22, 2026, the voter ID provision attached to the bill, and why its path through the Senate remains uncertain.

The deeper problem is trust. Corporate executives, journalists, bankers, and soldiers can face serious restrictions or punishment for trading on privileged information. Members of Congress have continued buying and selling individual stocks while shaping the laws, spending, and investigations that can move those companies. Chris built a business exposing that contradiction. Now the ban he has pushed for could eliminate the very controversy that helped build his company.

In this conversation you’ll hear
The Pelosi Tesla trade that convinced Chris something was deeply wrong
How “trade like a politician” grew into a billion-dollar investing platform
Why the congressional stock trading bill may already be designed to stall
The obscure political trades that reportedly produced staggering returns
What happens to Autopilot when Pelosi retires and politicians stop trading

You know that feeling when life starts closing in. Work. Family. Money. Relationships. Everything feels tight and suddenly your mind starts replaying every decision that got you here.

In this conversation Rick talks about overwhelm, anxiety, overthinking, burnout, and the trap of staring backward when you need a way through. He uses a story from Hawaii to break down why the answer may not be working harder up the same mountain.

This episode is a mirror for the person who feels stuck in a room with no door. The tension is simple. Maybe the way out is not more pressure. Maybe you need a bigger question.

What Rick explores in this episode:
Why overwhelm can make your world feel smaller than it really is
How replaying old decisions can keep you trapped in the same room
Why hard work is not always the same thing as the right work
How thinking bigger can change the way you see the problem in front of you
Why speed simplicity and a better question can create a way through
