10 Things We Learned from Family, Friends & Failing Forward | 8

Tyler and Mair share the ten people who shaped their lives, a wild ocean stunt story on an Oscar Winner's film set, and why being unapologetically yourself might be your real superpower.

In this episode of the EVR FWD Podcast, hosts Tyler Tackett and Mair Mulroney share the ten most influential lessons they’ve learned from the people who shaped their lives — family, friends, mentors, and even the ones who tested them.

Tyler also takes us behind the scenes of his latest stunt coordinator gig in the ocean for a surfing movie starring an Academy Award–winning actor — and explains what really happens when you’re thrown into deep water (literally) on set.

The duo then drops the teaser trailer for DEATH BATTLE: BLADE VS BUFFY — the 201st episode (and third Live Action produced by ISMAHAWK) starring Mair Mulroney as Buffy and Fik-Shun Stegall as Blade drops on the Death Battle YouTube channel SUNDAY, OCTOBER 12TH!
