  • The Hardest Position in Soccer | Building Confidence, Community, and Elite Goalkeepers with Only Goalkeeper
    Apr 24 2026

    On this episode of the Houston Hustle, we take the podcast out of the studio and onto the field as we spend time with Coach D (Deusdedit Caguana) and the team behind Only Goalkeeper.

    From live training sessions to conversations with coaches, players, and parents, this episode gives you a real look at what it takes to train one of the most demanding positions in sports.

    Coach D shares his journey from playing professional soccer in Venezuela to building a rapidly growing goalkeeping community here in Houston. His mission goes far beyond developing athletes. He is focused on building confidence, discipline, and strong character both on and off the field.

    You will hear firsthand from players about how their skills and confidence have grown, from coaches about the intensity and standards that set this program apart, and from parents about the impact Only Goalkeeper has had on their kids.

    This episode is about more than soccer. It is about leadership, mentorship, and creating a community that pushes the next generation to be better.

    If you are a parent, athlete, or entrepreneur, this is a conversation you will not want to miss.

  • From Hypercars to High-Value Comics: Building a Premium Brand with Brent Villareal with NearMintPlus
    Apr 17 2026

    What happens when you combine obsession-level passion, high-stakes risk, and an uncompromising standard for quality? You get Brent Villareal.

    In this episode of Houston Hustle, Dr. Paige and Dr. Charlie Ward sit down with the mastermind behind Near Mint Plus—a disruptor in the comic world who turned a lifelong passion into one of the largest premium comic retail brands online.

    Brent shares his unconventional journey from building custom forged wheels for some of the fastest hypercars on the planet, to pioneering exclusive, high-end comic drops with Marvel artists. We dive into how he scaled rapidly, took massive financial risks, and built a reputation rooted in one thing: quality over everything.

    But this isn’t just about comics.

    This is a raw conversation about:

    • Betting on yourself when no one understands your vision
    • Turning passion into profit without losing integrity
    • Handling criticism, competition, and controversy at scale
    • The reality of entrepreneurship behind the highlight reel
    • Why accountability—not perfection—is the real key to trust

    Brent also opens up about personal challenges, including navigating chronic health conditions while running a business solo—and what it really means to build something worth passing on.

    Whether you're an entrepreneur, collector, or creative chasing your next move, this episode will challenge how you think about value, vision, and what it takes to truly stand out.

    🎯 If you want to build something premium, this is the blueprint.
