The Kash & Dash Show
The Kash & Dash Show is where real conversations happen around business, entrepreneurship, real estate, and the people behind it all. Hosted by Ted Kaasch and Owen Dashner, this show goes deeper than the usual surface-level interview. We talk with investors, business owners, and high-level operators about the grind, the growth, the setbacks, the lessons, and the legacy they’re building.
This is not just a deals podcast. It’s about the real person behind the business — what drives them, what they’ve learned, what they’re still figuring out, and what success has actually cost them along the way.
Each week, you’ll hear honest interviews, unfiltered conversations, and the kind of stories you usually do not hear in a traditional business or real estate show.
Grind. Growth. Legacy.

#278: Jay Miralles: 50 Mile March, Veterans, and Rebuilding After Rock Bottom
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Jay Miralles gets real about the stretch of life after leaving the military—losing direction, getting hit hard by divorce, and ending up in a dark season that included homelessness and serious mental health struggles. This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s an honest look at what rock bottom can feel like, and what it actually takes to climb out.
A big takeaway: you don’t “think” your way into a better life… you build it through structure, accountability, and the right people around you. Jay shares why community matters so much, how connection can be the difference between staying stuck and moving forward, and what changed when he decided to take ownership of his future.
We also dive into Jay’s move into real estate, lessons learned the hard way in business, and why being visible and available is one of the most underrated skills if you want to grow your network and opportunities.
The episode wraps with the mission behind the 50 Mile March—an endurance event designed to empower veterans and raise awareness around veteran mental health and homelessness. If you’re looking for a story that hits hard but leaves you better, this one’s it.
