In this lively episode of Billified, Bill shares some unexpected inspiration from none other than John Mayer. After hearing Mayer talk about how giving up drinking transformed his life, Bill is considering a similar life change as he faces big shifts in his own world. Could the Fairport Music Fest be the start of something new for Bill?

Dan recalls a phrase Bill used to say that perfectly fits this moment, while Bill’s latest read, The War of Art by Steven Pressfield, is also pushing him to see life from a fresh perspective. The crew then dives into some local sports talk as Bill gears up to throw the first pitch at the Rochester Red Wings game on August 15th. Red Wings GM Dan Mason joins the podcast to chat about the game and hear Bill and Kevin’s pitch for a new promotional idea—but Dan's reaction might not be what they expected. The big question remains: how nervous will Bill be when he steps onto the mound? Will he hold it together or pull a Hunter Greene and lose his lunch?

Dan wraps things up with his thoughts on the Buffalo Bills’ first preseason game and his concerns for the upcoming season. Finally, it’s time for another round of "Theme That Tune," where Dan has been dominating. Can you beat them at their own game? Enjoy an episode packed with inspiration, laughs, and a few surprises.
