Open Up - Guest: Jeremy Hall - Founder of The Trading Hall

Wed, 03 Jun 2026 12:04:40 GMT

Jeremy Hall grew up in a village of 400 people in Ontario, Canada, where poverty wasn't a concept — it was a lived reality. After his parents divorced when he was eight, Jeremy found himself huddled with his siblings on a mattress on a cold winter night with the heat and electricity shut off. That moment lit a fire in him that never went out. By 14 he was paying his family's rent. By 21 he was a profitable trader. By 25 he had achieved full financial independence.But the real turning point came later — when his father, his best friend and Superman, was diagnosed with multiple myeloma and passed away within 90 days. Trading gave Jeremy the freedom to be there every single day. The grief that followed pushed him into a deep depression, and the only thing that pulled him out was purpose. He built the Trading Hall — a platform designed to simplify what took him three painful years to figure out — and hasn't looked back since.In this episode, Jeremy unpacks the emotional side of trading, the discipline it demands, and why success in markets mirrors success in every area of life. He speaks openly about failure, depression, fatherhood, homeschooling, faith, and a new venture into the world of gray area peptides. Raw, honest, and full of practical wisdom.Chapters00:00 Cold Open01:30 Host Introduction01:41 Where in Canada & Growing Up in a Small Town02:51 Simplifying Success — The Core Philosophy04:40 Life Before Success — Poverty, Divorce & Growing Up Fast06:42 The Medicine Jar — First Lessons in Saving07:17 How Trading Found Jeremy08:35 The First Account, The First Loss09:11 Three Years in the Trenches10:28 Why Trading?

Open Up - Guests: John Haremza & Jeremy Hall

Fri, 10 Apr 2026 12:00:00 GMT

In this episode, Jeremy Hall and John Haremza join the show for a powerhouse conversation about focus, mindset, and the decisions that separate successful people from everyone else. They tackle one of the most common struggles entrepreneurs face — shiny object syndrome and knowing what to truly commit to. From trading intuition to network marketing, from Forrest Gump to self-accountability, John and Jeremy deliver real, raw wisdom on how to stop being busy and start being effective. They also open up about redefining success, the stories we tell ourselves, and why keeping your word to yourself is the foundation of everything.⏱️ CHAPTERS00:00 – The Shiny Object ProblemJohn and Jeremy open with the danger of chasing too many opportunities and the importance of getting laser-focused on the right thing.01:36 – How Do You Know What to Focus On?The host asks the big question — with so many things to juggle, how do you know what deserves your full commitment?03:10 – Setting a Deadline vs. Trusting the ProcessJohn weighs in on making upfront commitments and evaluating honestly along the way — including the podcast monetization question.03:37 – Change Your ScoreboardJeremy introduces a key mindset shift: make the process your goal, not just the outcome. Consistency beats rigid targets every time.05:05 – Trader Intuition & Breakthrough MomentsJeremy connects focus to his trading philosophy — your gut gets sharper with experience, and your darkest moment is often right before your breakthrough.06:37 – Are You Doing the Right Work?John challenges the idea of being "busy" — are you doing the activities that actually move the needle, or just the easy stuff?09:19 – Efficiently Busy vs. Just BusyJohn and Jeremy coin a phrase: efficiently busy. Confusing activity with accomplishment is one of the biggest traps people fall into.10:40 – Control What You Can ControlThe guys dig into letting go of what you can't control and focusing your energy on your response — inspired by a Jim Rohn quote.11:55 – Using Pain as PurposeJeremy shares how failure and pain can either become your prison or your fuel — it all comes down to the decision you make about it.12:11 – Telling the Best Truth (Network Marketing Story)John shares a powerful story about reframing your narrative — the victim version vs. the empowered version of the same exact circumstance.15:10 – The Power of the Right PartnershipJohn opens up about what makes his partnership with Jeremy work — shared beliefs, trust, and similar work ethics.15:43 – Take Full Responsibility (No "Buts")John's closing wisdom: real accountability means dropping the but after "I take responsibility."16:10 – Keep Your Word to YourselfJeremy gets personal about emotional coaching and how self-integrity is the root of confidence, success, and self-respect.17:46 – The Forrest Gump LessonJohn breaks down the Lieutenant Dan storyline as a metaphor for letting go of a false destiny and finding real transformation.22:21 – Money, God & ValuesA candid conversation about wealth, faith, and the belief that money amplifies who you already are.24:10 – Get a Mentor & Wrap-UpThe host closes out with a key takeaway: find your mentors, learn from their lessons, and save yourself years of unnecessary struggle.

John Haremza went from maintenance worker in a potato chip factory to generating over $1 billion in team sales and $30 million in personal commissions — but the real story starts long before the success.Growing up in a small Minnesota town, John struggled with undiagnosed dyslexia that left him feeling slow, dumb, and invisible throughout school.

Open Up - Guest: Daniel Alonzo - The Sexualization of Kids and Epstein Situation

Sat, 09 Mar 2024 12:00:00 GMT

Two wild things with America today: the grooming of kids and the Epstein situation. Why are kids being sexualized? Why do schools teach masturbation? Why aren't those on the Epstein list been publicly named or brought to justice? There have been ongoing investigations and some legal proceedings against various associated individuals, but the pace and visibility of these processes have led to public frustration and concern over the accountability of those involved. There is a serious and broad demand for justice and transparency in this case. At this point, I couldn't help but wonder: could the sexualization of kids and Epstein's elite group be connected? Is there more to this story? @danielalonzo, one thing is certain: if I didn't run out of battery on my cameras, we'd still be filming. I could never run out of things to debate with you, that's for sure. 😆 Check out the full episode on my new Youtube channel. #Epstein #WarOnKids #Education #SexualizationOfKids #AmericanIssues #AmericaToday #OpenUp #OpenUpPodcast #LikeMindedPeople #Debating #WeWantJustice #EndCorruption Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Thu, 07 Mar 2024 12:00:00 GMT

What is the wildest thing you've ever experienced? For me, it's still the pandemic.Aside from raising many health questions, the unethical coercion, segregation, discrimination, governmental rule inconsistencies, bribing, corruption, authoritarian power grabs, social media censoring, and lack of freedom of speech have brought a lot of vaccine hesitancy.Looking back, do you regret complying? Do you feel manipulated? Or are you happy you didn't partake in the experiment? Were you part of the herd or did you stand up against the mandate?Thank you, @danielalonzo for this awesome episode.

Open Up - Guest: Dock Walls - The 60s

Wed, 06 Mar 2024 12:00:00 GMT

Las Vegas Mayoral Candidate Dock Walls talks about the 60s.During his presidency, Lyndon B. Johnson introduced transformative social welfare programs. He signed the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1968, which prohibited racial segregation and discrimination. Johnson's tenure also saw the establishment of Medicare and Medicaid. Furthermore, his domestic policy, known as the "Great Society," aimed to produce economic growth and reduce poverty. However, his foreign policy was overshadowed by the Vietnam War. Some argue that Lyndon B. Johnson and the social welfare policies initiated in the 60s have diabolically harmed black communities, and that the Democrats, by positioning themselves as the “allies” of these communities, have made them more reliant on assistance, thereby undermining their independence and strength. What are your thoughts on that? Thank you, Dock @dockwalls for your great answers. #OpenUp #DockWalls #LasVegas #MayoralCandidate #politics #politician #60s #AfricanAmerican #History Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Why do we need a 'Black History Month'? Is it a mere recognition, or does it subtly underscore a need to recognize a community 'differently'? Is giving a 'month' enough? Or, is it a reminder of a collective past where people were seen based on the color of their skin rather than their character? Don't be shy.
