Donut Shop Podcast

How does a farm kid from Australia end up working aboard superyachts, traveling the world, helping people plan cruise vacations—and coaching F45 in South Florida?

On this episode of the Donut Shop Podcast, I sit down with Adam Shelton, someone I originally got to know as one of my coaches at F45.

But there’s a lot more to Adam’s story.

We go back to his childhood growing up in Australia and talk about farm life, sports, leaving home, his journey into the world of superyachts and megayachts, and what life is really like working aboard luxury vessels.

We also get into travel, his work helping people plan cruise vacations, Australia vs. America, fitness, coaching at F45, and the unexpected turns that took him from an Australian farm to where he is today.

It’s a conversation about travel, taking chances, hard work, fitness and what can happen when you’re willing to follow an unconventional path.

Today's conversation is going to be a little different from some of the law enforcement stories we normally bring you—but it's about something that eventually affects every one of us.What happens to everything you've spent your life building?

Today's guest is Todd Villarrubia, an estate attorney whose work focuses on helping entrepreneurs, business owners, and families protect their assets, reduce unnecessary tax exposure, and create strategies designed to preserve wealth across generations.

And when most of us hear words like estate planning, asset protection, or generational wealth, it's easy to think that's something for somebody with a private jet and $50 million in the bank.But think about the average police officer, firefighter, or first responder after a 20- or 30-year career. You may have a pension, deferred compensation, a home, investments, life insurance, maybe a side business—and hopefully you've accumulated something you'd like to leave behind for your family.

So today, I want to strip away some of the legal and financial jargon and talk about the practical side of protecting what you've worked for.

We're going to talk about estate planning, taxes, entrepreneurship, protecting your family, building wealth, and some of the mistakes people make because nobody ever taught us how this stuff actually works.

Joining me are Edward “Hammer” Ford and Alan “Chase” Chiasson, authors of Postcards Through Hell.

Ed is a retired United States Marine who served in the infantry and Force Reconnaissance before continuing his career as a security contractor, with experience spanning the Gulf War, Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

Chase served in the United States Navy as a Hospital Corpsman and later worked overseas providing high-risk medical support for protective security details, convoy operations, and force-protection missions in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Together, they became part of a group known as the Pony Express—private security contractors tasked with moving U.S. mail and other critical supplies across Afghanistan.

And when I say delivering the mail, forget the mail truck driving through your neighborhood. These guys were moving across some of the most dangerous roads in the world, facing IEDs, ambushes, the Taliban, criminal groups, and all of the unpredictability that came with operating outside the wire.

But tonight I don't want to only talk about gun trucks, firefights, and IEDs.

I want to talk about Afghanistan itself.

The people they met. The friendships they formed. The ridiculous things that made them laugh. The families waiting thousands of miles away. Why they kept going back. What those years took from them—and maybe even what Afghanistan gave them in return.

Because Postcards Through Hell isn't only a story about surviving a war zone. It's also a story about brotherhood, sacrifice, purpose, and a group of men trying to bring a little piece of home to people serving very far away from it.
