After a 3 month hiatus, Jason and Irvin are back to deliver Season 2 of the critically acclaimed "Us Against The World" podcast!! Critics only include both Jason and Irvin's moms plus the old man working at their local "Panda Express" !!

For our season 2 opener we have Fearhall, founder of the "GET SOME SLEEP" brand. We dive in deep into how Fearhall started his brand while working at a job he really hated, the obstacles he faced in the beginning of the brand's journey, how his parents felt about him entering a field they were complete strangers too, the role his family and friends partook, the art of getting whipped as kids (ouch) , and much much more!
