Do you have big plans, big ideas, and lofty goals? Do you find it hard to stay focused and motivated in order to achieve your goals? Wouldn't it be great if you had someone to hold you accountable to your goals?

Jon Magnuson and Chris Carlock hold each other accountable with a weekly phone call, The Accountability Call, which they've turned into a podcast. Every week, Jon and Chris talk to each other about the challenges of getting things done professionally, personally, and creatively.

The two friends share their successes and failures as dads, husbands, and entrepreneurs. Along the way, they also share big ideas, life lessons, and life hacks they are implementing in their daily journeys toward self-actualization.
