On this episode, Travis Chappell sits down with his producer Eric for a fun but revealing “check your contacts” game that exposes how much your network shapes your opportunities, decisions, and problem-solving capacity. Instead of focusing on tactics alone, they use real names from Travis’s phone to unpack what makes a relationship actually valuable beyond social proof or status.
On this episode we talk about:
The one professional contact Travis would keep if he had to delete everyone else from his phone
Who he’d bet $1,000 will pick up the phone every time he calls
Which friend he hasn’t talked to in years but knows would still show up if he needed help
The first “celebrity” and first true household-name contact that made his network feel different
Who he’d choose as his only coach if he had to start a new business tomorrow
The worst “client” call of his career and the red flags it revealed
The best call he’s ever received and how it turned into a defining podcast interview moment
Why your network multiplies your ability to solve problems, Henry Ford–style
Top 3 Takeaways
A contact is only as valuable as their willingness to respond; reliability and generosity matter more than fame or follower count.
Strong relationships built over years—even with long gaps in communication—can still be some of the most dependable when life or business goes sideways.
Your network is a force multiplier: like Henry Ford and modern ultra-learners, you do not need to know everything yourself if you can quickly reach people who are true experts in their domains.
Notable Quotes
"Your contacts are only as good as the people who actually text back and pick up when it counts."
"You can solve bigger and more complex problems when you know who to call, not just what to do."
"Your contact list will largely dictate how successful and how helpful you are in life—so don’t neglect the work of building real relationships."
