Sweat Equity: Dads in the Sauna, Cold Plunge, and Entrepreneurial Grind (feat. Asif Hazrat)
Tue Feb 03 2026
Joe and Mitch leave the studio and step straight into the fire—literally. This special on-location episode was recorded live at Fire & Ice Sauna in Bolingbrook, where the guys took on contrast therapy with dry saunas, icy plunges, and even colder truths about recovery, entrepreneurship, and dad life.
Joined by Fire & Ice owner and fellow dad Asif Hazrat, along with special guests Sal Gaddam (back from season 1) and Brian Vladovich (Joe's brother-in-law and part owner of Olsson Roofing, a commercial roofing company).
This episode dives into what it takes to build resilience—mentally, physically, and professionally—when life throws heat (or toddlers) your way. The guys also learn about contrast therapy... and you get to see them freeze their butts off in a cold tub!
Expect laughter, shivering, and some surprisingly deep wisdom from the sauna to the plunge tub. Topics include the science of recovery, raising three kids under three, the stress-reducing power of cold exposure, and how to build a wellness business from scratch.
🧊 Whether you're a dad, a business owner, or just sauna-curious—this episode brings the heat and drops the temp at the same time.
