Daily Boost Podcast Communication Kung Fu August 28, 2026 | Episode 5530 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Somebody drops a request on your plate, and you hear yourself saying yes before your brain catches up. Now you're doing work that was never yours, and the thing you actually needed to finish sits there. Years ago, an improv class handed me two small moves that fixed this. They keep you agreeable, keep people liking you, and keep your calendar your own. I use them on clients, on my kids, on anybody walking down the hall looking for a favor. Nobody has ever caught on. Try them this weekend and watch what stops landing on your desk. Featured Story Years ago I was chasing voiceover and spokesperson work, and I knew I didn't sound natural. I've got this radio voice built into me. Great for reading copy. Terrible for sounding like a regular guy standing in a kitchen. So I took classes: acting classes, commercial classes, drama classes. I scared a few people with my acting chops. I was that good.
