Top 3, & She's Not 3. Featuring: Lyndsey McFail.
Thu Feb 05 2026
Knowing Your Top 3 and Knowing Your Worth
Some people collect music.
Others build lives around it.
On Episode 330 of Off The Strength, Tony Vidal and KR Jones sit down with Lyndsey McFail, communications and media strategist, lifelong DJ, and the mind behind the wildly addictive Top 3!® music trivia game.
Lindsy takes us back to spinning records at 13, learning entrepreneurship at home from her mom, and growing up in a family where music wasn’t a hobby, it was the language. We talk about catching the magic in Clark Atlanta during the moment when the South was shifting hip hop forever, and how being in the right place with the right ears can change your entire trajectory.
She breaks down why understanding her value and trusting her voice became a turning point, how wellness showed up for her at key moments when life demanded balance, and why informational interviews are still one of the most underrated tools in networking.
Of course, we get into Top 3!®. How pandemic isolation turned into innovation. Why arguing over songs is kind of the point. What it takes to build a game that honors culture without taking itself too seriously. And yes, we finally settle who holds the title of official Top 3 champion of Off The Strength.
This episode is part music history, part life strategy, and part friendly chaos.
This is for the music lover in you!🎙️🔥
