JudgeCast #314 - Stream of Confidence w/ Madison Henry
https://judgecast.com/archives/1804
During the winter break, we asked listeners for their “Judge New Years Resolutions”. One of our listeners said they wanted to work on confidence. In this episode, Bryan, Charles, and Marcos bring on L2 from Tennessee, Madison Henry to talk confidence. We talk about things that can rattle your confidence, tips and tricks to build confidence, and we even get personal and share stories about times we specifically lacked confidence, and how we dealt with it.
Because all the drama with Lois, Clark ends up developing a much stricter but more flexible practice with concealing his secret identity from the rest of the Daily Planet. This mostly boils down to "Don't gaslight people" and "Just maintain that Superman doesn't have a secret identity and 99% of the time you can just gently nudge people to their own conclusions with regards to you." But he has like, one vice with regards to secret identity shenanigans and that's fucking with Steve Lombard whenever he gets asked what his workout routine is. Steve has been asking for years and Clark has never given him the same answer.
"Just the expert-recommended 150 minutes of mild aerobic activity and/or 70 minutes of intense aerobic activity a week!"
"You know that group of seniors who do Tai Chi in the park?"
"Tractor tires. Mine actually came off of our old tractor back in Smallville! I don't like the ones at the gym. Not enough.. um... dirt. How many squat reps? Uhhh.... 12?"
"BugFit? On the KordTech BugStation? You have these wands that you wave around but there's also this little platform that you step on and--? Oh I don't have the console, myself. I use Jimmy's."
"Pole dancing. Lois's idea."
And Steve is always that weird brand of macho-affable about it, like "Ahh you got me again, Kent! But I'll figure it out one of these days! I didn't spend 4 weeks painstakingly comparing the training regimens of the entire Metropolis Meteors team not to figure yours out!"
And in private this is fucking haunting Steve because he knows guys that wake up at 4 am 5 days a week to gun for the kind of lats Clark 'Ope' Kent has. He also knows it's not steroids because he's tracked down enough stories of that nature and knows Clark well enough to know that's really not in the realm of what's going on here. And here's Clark adjusting his stupid fucking glasses and saying with a perfectly straight face that he has that body from fucking pilates.
