A Conversation with Fancy B: From Legal Briefs to Love Stories

Summer is OVER

After a late-summer break, Patrick is back behind the mic with a solo episode that feels like catching up with an old friend. He shares why, despite the calendar, summer is over in Milwaukee and why fall has quickly become his favorite season. From kids heading back to school and the kickoff of football, to pumpkin spice lattes and shorter days, Patrick makes his case for embracing autumn and letting go of what he calls a “less-than-ideal” summer. He also opens up about the future of It’s Later Than You Think—why episodes may arrive less frequently, how solo shows fit in, and a new podcast project on the horizon. Patrick introduces Grossly Competent, a new weekly show co-hosted with past guest Steve Counsell, exploring learning, development, and the messy fun of adulting. Whether you’re team summer or team fall, this episode is part seasonal reflection, part state-of-the-podcast update, and part invitation to join Patrick on the next chapter.
