Episode Notes

What happens when you put two people with ADHD together and let the conversation go wherever their brains take them?

Well… pretty much anything.

Today, Jeremiah Geez joins Chase for a conversation that jumps from soccer and the World Cup to the wild celebration after a New York Knicks victory, fireworks in Newport Beach, and Jeremiah’s time in the Hamptons—which he describes as something of an “ADHD Haven.”

But underneath all the stories and laughs, Chase and Jeremiah get into some bigger ideas about ADHD, especially hyperfocus. What happens when you can take that intense focus and channel it into something productive or creative? Chase talks about preparing the next generation to understand and use hyperfocus, along with examples of famously focused innovators like Henry Ford and Elon Musk.

They also talk about the relationship between ADHD and creativity, including Chase’s favorite advertising campaign featuring the New York Rangers: “The hardest place in New York to get into.”

Jeremiah shares his passion for painting, talks about the mystique surrounding his creative side, and eventually gets into something a little more personal—how ADHD can affect romantic relationships.

And yes… there’s even some talk about double dating with Chase.

It’s funny, unpredictable, and very ADHD.
