Agreeing or disagreeing on something is a situation that arises when you meet feedback that causes a degree of dissonance. Dissonance is an experience where you have a perspective about the world, and how you are about everything, and then you receive feedback that does not align with that perspective. This moment of dissonance is interesting because it represents the moment where transformation is available. These also represent the moment that you must flee from. Listen as you will also learn the distinction of agree, and disagree, and how to work with this. Enjoy the show!

After a week off, the Two Dudes (@shootingstarPRS and @mywrestlingopinion on TikTok) are back to discuss another crazy week in the WWE. The road to SummerSlam is heating up and this week, they break down Smackdown from July 21. On Smackdown, "Main Event" Jey Uso and Roman Reigns signed their contract for Tribal Combat at Summerslam and now it looks like Roman's Tribal Chief title will be on the line as well as his Undisputed Universal Championship. We saw a Fatal 4-Way between LA Knight, Sheamus, Rey Mysterio and Cameron Grimes. There was a controversial ending in this match and The Two Dudes are here to discuss it. Austin Theory had a match against Santos Escobar and the new NXT North American Champion Dominik Mysterio put his newly won title on the line against Butch. On Monday Night RAW from July 24, Dominik went against Sami Zayn, Drew McIntyre and Gunther came face-to-face and we saw Judgment Day continue their dominance with Damian Priest getting a huge victory and Finn Balor/Seth Rollins signing their contract for their World Heavyweight Championship Clash at SummerSlam. On NXT's go-home show for Great American Bash, we saw Dominik and the rest of Judgment Day make their presence known again. Gable Steveson will make his NXT debut at Great American Bash going against Baron Corbin. The Two Dudes will give their thoughts on that and much, much more! In their show closing segment, The Two Dudes give predictions for NXT Great American Bash on Sunday, July 30 in Texas. Who will win? Will any titles change hands? What will happen?

We always enjoy reading Phil Steele's preseason college football magazine and on today's show Patrick Murphy and Dave Biddle will discuss what they agree and disagree about regarding Steele's preseason rankings. What do we think about things like Clemson being ranked No. 2 nationally by Steele and Ohio State being No. 5? What about Michigan being ranked ahead of the Buckeyes in the Big Ten East? And what about the rest of the Big Ten East's rankings? And the Big Ten West's rankings? Speaking of the Big Ten West, might Northwestern have a new coach soon? Pat Fitzgerald has already been suspended for two weeks and further punishment could be coming down the pike. We also delve into whether a football coach should always know what is going on inside his program, even though he is dealing with a team of 105 college guys. All of that and more is coming your way on the Monday 5ish.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Agree/disagree voting (& other new features September 2022), published by Lizka on September 7, 2022 on The Effective Altruism Forum. We're enabling two-factor voting (karma and agree/disagree) on all (new) comment threads in the Forum. We'll be reviewing feedback and will evaluate how the change has gone in October, but we expect to keep the feature. We wrote this post to share this update and some other changes. On that note, the Forum team continues to grow; Ollie Etherington and Will Howard recently joined our team, and we're eagerly anticipating our new product manager. We're also still excited to hear about promising UX designers interested in working on the Forum. As always, feedback is welcome — you can comment on this post with specific input, or request more features via the Forum feature suggestion thread. Summary of the changes Two-factor voting is going live on the Forum. This adds agree-disagree voting on top of the usual karma system. ⬇️ We've started curating Forum posts that don't get enough visibility or are especially good as examples of what Forum posts should be (according to us). ⬇️ There's finally a way to copy-paste from a Google Doc with footnotes. ⬇️ We're testing a 1:1 service to connect people interested in working in a field with experts in that field (the current service is for people interested in mitigating global catastrophic biological risks). ⬇️ Crossposting to and from LessWrong will be easier. ⬇️ You can add topics to your public profile. ⬇️ Some other changes ⬇️ What's new Two-factor voting (karma and agree/disagree) on all comment threads You can now vote separately on whether you appreciate a comment (and think more people should see it) and on whether you agree with the contents of the comment. Only the first of these will affect the poster's karma. The LessWrong team implemented this feature on LessWrong two months ago, and their announcement post shares details about how it works and what they like about it; we echo basically everything in that post. Some key points made in that post: Agree/disagree voting does not translate into a user's or post's karma — its sole function is to communicate agreement/disagreement. It has no other direct effects on the site or content visibility (i.e. no effect on sorting algorithms). For both regular voting and the new agree/disagree voting, you have the ability to normal-strength vote and strong-vote. Click once for normal-strength vote. For strong-vote, click-and-hold on desktop or double-tap on mobile. The weight of your strong-vote is approximately proportional to your karma on a log-scale (exact numbers here). We're really grateful to the LessWrong team for all their work on this and are excited about this as a potential improvement on the Forum. How sure are we that we want to keep this feature? Our default plan is to keep it, although we welcome feedback and plan to re-evaluate in October. We had planned to test the feature on the Forum more thoroughly by asking authors to opt into enabling it on their posts' comment sections. However, the testing has been very slow, and, seeing the results on LessWrong (and on the Forum), we were increasingly feeling like we were wasting a great tool. Curation of especially good posts The number of posts that get shared on a single day is growing, and it's increasingly hard for Forum users to keep up and see the best and most relevant-to-them posts. One way we're trying to address this is by curating some of our favorite posts. We'll generally leave a comment explaining why we curated the post. How this works The exact details of this system might change, but for now, they're as follows. When a post is curated, it reappears at the top of the Frontpage with a little star next to it. The timestamp on it will show the time it got curated (although the ...

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: LessWrong Has Agree/Disagree Voting On All New Comment Threads, published by Ben Pace on June 24, 2022 on LessWrong. Starting today we're activating two-factor voting on all new comment threads. Now there are two axes on which you can vote on comments: the standard karma axis remains on the left, and the new axis on the right lets you show much you agree or disagree with the content of a comment. How the system works For the pre-existing voting system, the most common interpretation of up/down-voting is "Do I want to see more or less of this content on the site?" As an item gets more/less votes, the item changes in visibility, and the karma-weighting of the author is eventually changed as well. Agree/disagree is just added on to this system. Here's how it all hooks up. Agree/disagree voting does not translate into a user's or post's karma — its sole function is to communicate agreement/disagreement. It has no other direct effects on the site or content visibility. For both regular voting and the new agree/disagree voting, you have the ability to normal-strength vote and strong-vote. Click once for normal-strength vote. For strong-vote, click-and-hold on desktop or double-tap on mobile. The weight of your strong-vote is approximately proportional to your karma on a log-scale (exact numbers here). Ben's personal reasons for being excited about this split Here's a couple of reasons that are alive for me. I personally feel much more comfortable upvoting good comments that I disagree with or whose truth value I am highly uncertain about, because I don't feel that my vote will be mistaken as setting the social reality of what is true. I also feel very comfortable strong-agreeing with things while not up/downvoting on them, so as to indicate which side of an argument seems true to me without my voting being read as “this person gets to keep accruing more and more social status for just repeating a common position at length”. Similarly to the first bullet, I think that many writers have interesting and valuable ideas but whose truth-value I am quite unsure about or even disagree with. This split allows voters to repeatedly signal that a given writer's comments are of high value, without building a false-consensus that LessWrong has high confidence that the ideas are true. (For example, many people have incompatible but valuable ideas about how AGI development will go, and I want authors to get lots of karma and visibility for excellent contributions without this ambiguity.) There are many comments I think are bad but am averse to downvoting, because I feel that it is ambiguous whether the person is being downvoted because everyone thinks their take is unfashionable or whether it's because the person is wasting the commons with their behavior (e.g. snarkiness, belittling, starting bravery debates, etc). With this split I feel more comfortable downvoting bad comments without worrying that everyone who states the position will worry if they'll also be downvoted. I have seen some comments that previously would have been "downvoted to hell" are now on positive karma, and are instead "disagreed to hell". I won't point them out to avoid focusing on individuals, but this seems like an obvious improvement in communication ability. I could go on but I'll stop here. Please give us feedback This is one of the main voting experiments we've tried on the site (here's the other one). We may try more changes and improvement in the future. Please let us know about your experience with this new voting axis, especially in the next 1-2 weeks. If you find it concerning/invigorating/confusing/clarifying/other, we'd like to know about it. Comment on this post with feedback and I'll give you an upvote (and maybe others will give you an agree-vote!) or let us know in the intercom button in the bottom...

Just as expected. USC lost its starting quarterback Kedon Slovis on the second play of the game against Utah, had negative rushing yards going into the fourth quarter, was penalized 11 times for 117 yards, lost the turnover battle and yet...still found a way to beat the No. 10 team in the nation, 30-23, to take a step forward in the Pac-12 South standings. Just as everyone expected the game would play out. It was yet another twist on the 2019 season saga that is "As the Trojans Turn..." USC football seems to do a 180-degree turn each week this season. What is thought one week ends up being reversed the next week it seems as the Trojans ride a wave. A week after USC fans were calling for Clay Helton to join Lynn Swann goodbye train following an overtime road loss to BYU, the Trojans bounced back and upset the Pac-12 favorites with their third-string quarterback and an offense that couldn't run the ball. Say what? Who? How? Yep, USC was outgained in pretty much every significant statistical category and found a way to win at home in the Coliseum. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return to the USCfootball.com studio with a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast to assess just how the Trojans were able to get a victory and how seemingly forgotten redshirt junior Matt Fink rose to the occasion, showing no fear after entering for Slovis. Keely and Shotgun are looking to feature your question on an upcoming episode. Send in your Stock Up/Stock Down contenders for debate, provide an Agree/Disagree statement or a question you want answered.

Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return to the USCfootball.com studio with a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss how the Trojans responded to losing their starting quarterback in a big way with a 45-20 win over Stanford, showing some mental fortitude that we weren't sure if they had. In this week's Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely and Shotgun have plenty of positives to mention, starting with the play of Slovis, who completed 28 of 33 passes for 377 yards and three touchdowns, and the assistance of Daniels helping guide the freshman throughout the week, the night before at the team hotel and also during the game. They also give credit to the offensive line, a pair of receivers and the offensive confidence the Trojans played with. On the defensive side, the USCfootball.com dueling duo note the work of a young cornerback and a veteran defensive lineman that stood out while Shotgun goes outside the box with a different defensive lineman. When it comes to the negatives, Keely and Shotgun try to decipher Devon Williams' decision to enter the transfer portal while Keely looks at slow defensive starts while Shotgun points out one of the issues that has led to those struggles. In 'Heard It On The Sidelines,' the feudsters give you a look behind the scenes at what they could see and hear from their sideline vantage point during the game, including the rapport between Graham Harrell and a freshman wideout, Clay Helton's message to Slovis after his first touchdown pass and the camaraderie/chemistry that the players seem to have amongst their teammates. Keely questions Shotgun about the how Daniels may have fared against Stanford and whether certain backups should be getting more playing time at this point in the 'Agree/Disagree' segment. This episode of the Family Feud Podcast concludes with the questions that you emailed (familyfeudpod@gmail.com) and tweeted to us, including why some certain receivers may be excelling at the same time others may struggle, how the USC offense may be affecting the Trojans' defense and what the trajectory for the team is over the next four games.

The college football season is officially underway at USC. And it didn't take long for the Trojans to bring many more questions than answers. USC won its matchup against Fresno State, 31-23, Saturday night in the Coliseum, but lost the war as starting sophomore quarterback JT Daniels saw his season come to an end soon after it began. Daniels got off to a brilliant start and was 25 for 34 for 215 yards passing when he tried to retreat from a Bulldogs blitz and got folded up by the pressure. He tore the anterior cruciate ligament and meniscus in his right knee, ending his night and ultimately his season on the Trojans' final offensive play of the first half. That meant USC had to turn to Kedon Slovis. It ran a very run-centric offense in the second half to take some pressure off of true freshman. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return to the USCfootball.com studio with a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss how concerned Trojan fans should be about Slovis starting for the first time against Stanford and whether there may be more pressing things that USC has to take care of even before worrying about the success of Slovis. In this week's Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely and Shotgun have plenty of takeaways from the first game of the year. They look at the dynamic running back duo of Vavae Malepeai and Stephen Carr -- who combined for 190 yards rushing, more than 50 yards receiving and three touchdowns -- and the big men up front that helped paved the way for the rushing attack, including graduate transfer Drew Richmond. The Drakes are discussed as freshmen Drake London and Drake Jackson both earned starts in their collegiate debuts. The USCfootball.com duo also look at the positives and negatives from the tight end position. Keely frowns upon the message sent by the USC coaching staff when it delivers conflicting information to the media while Shotgun breaks down the issues the Trojans had on defense against edge-rushing plays, including the struggles of talented sophomore linebacker Palaie Gaoteote. After the first game, Keely and Shotgun have some notes from the sidelines of what they were able to observe and hear while covering the game and practices throughout the week, including Juliano Falaniko's attempt to stake claim for the Trojans like a 15th century explorer, the atmosphere in the Coliseum when safety Isaiah Pola-Mao sealed the game with an interception in the end zone and the demeanor of Slovis and Daniels on the sideline in the second half. In the Agree/Disagree portion of the podcast, Keely questions Shotgun about the how Stanford's defense may attack the Trojans with a true freshman behind center and how the USC defense can get better in a week. This episode of the Family Feud Podcast concludes with the questions that you emailed (familyfeudpod@gmail.com) and tweeted to us, including whether Tyler Vaughns' performance changed Shotgun's perception of the potential of "Stock Neutral," what might not have been revealed yet by offensive coordinator Graham Harrell, the length of Slovis' leash and what can the Trojans consider to be a good record for the season with a freshman at quarterback for the second year in a row.

The season opener is here. You know what that means? No more break downs, talking heads, scrimmages, offseason practice reports or projections. It's finally time to sees an actual football game played this weekend and the Family Feud dynamic duo of Keely Eure and Shotgun could not be more excited to take it in from the sidelines of the L.A. Coliseum on Saturday night. But Family Feud Podcast makes a one-episode adoption of fellow USCFootball.com writer Chris Trevino, the podcast's first official guest. Chris drops by to share several of his bold predictions for the season in an exclusive world premier. Since it's been two weeks since the last episode of the Feud, the trio had a lot to catch up on, including the new closed practice policy, injuries, the shakeup to the QB depth chart and, of course, the Fresno State Bulldogs. In the return of the Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely, Shotgun and Chris take turns praising the quickly-progressing offense with Shotgun focusing on the offensive synchronicity. They also remain high on some early-enrollee freshmen that have already been able to make a quick impression despite only being on campus for a couple of months. While Shotgun also highlights some players that have made positive gains as they return from injury, Keely admits that the new coaching staff members have been better than she anticipated from Harrell's offense to the fiery ways of running backs coach Mike Jinks and the hands-on approach of defensive backs coach Greg Burns. As they discuss the coaching staff, the USCfootball.com duo note that USC's coaches have been actively attacking some of the issues the Trojans consistently had last season. Of course, Keely once again fails to try to incorporate a Stock Neutral as Shotgun shoot it down with cries of Stock Unchanged. In Heard it on the Sidelines, Keely, Shotgun and Chris drop some tidbits from the last two weeks of August practices. What did redshirt freshman kicker Chase McGrath say about his recovery from an ACL tear? Hear what linebacker coach Johnny Nansen and sophomore Palaie Gaoteote had to say about the MIKE and WILL spots. Then in the special Agree/Disagree segment, Keely and Shotgun react to five of Chris' 10 bold predictions for the season. Those predictions feature freshman defensive end Drake Jackson, sophomore Gaoteote and sophomore wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown. We are really excited about all the questions that were submitted and are looking to feature your question on an upcoming episode. Send your Stock Up/Stock Down contenders for us to debate, provide us with an Agree/Disagree statement or a question you want us to answer.

Fall camp is in full swing...and now unofficially over as USC football turns to mock game week and then prepares for its season opener against Fresno State after hosting a Fall Showcase event at the Coliseum on Saturday. The Fall Showcase gave the fans a first look at some of the Coliseum renovations and USC's new Graham Harrell-led Air Raid style of offense. It also gave the media a final look at the Trojans practicing this season as media access for the first time will now be restricted to only the first 20 minutes of Tuesday and Wednesday practices, which basically accounts for the team stretching and one or two individual drills each day. That put extra emphasis on the Fall Showcase, particularly with a four-man quarterback competition still taking place between JT Daniels, Jack Sears, Matt Fink and Kedon Slovis, and the action on the field as the Trojans scrimmaged for 87 minutes. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return for a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast to break down all the action of fall camp and what took place during USC's sneak peak on Saturday. The USCfootball.com dynamic duo return to their in-season format with Stock Up/Stock Down, Heard it on the Sidelines and Agree/Disagree segments before answering all of your listener-submitted questions (of which there were many). During the Stock Up portion, Keely and Shotgun both point out where defensive linemen continue to have success, with freshman Drake Jackson's stock continuing to point toward the sky. But he's not the only freshman defender that has caught the eye of both Keely and Shotgun. Inside linebacker Ralen Goforth continues to get a lot of opportunities during team and scrimmage portions and is making the most of the them making plays seemingly every practice. But not everything is peachy for the cardinal and gold. The Family Feudsters also break down what aspects of USC football are seeing their stock decline, including the Trojans' offensive line that was unable to establish a rushing attack at all during the Fall Showcase.

They're back... But who? USC students are back? Not quite. College football is back? Well, some teams have taken the practice fields already. The USC Trojans are back? They do take the field tomorrow, but when will the cardinal and gold return to national prominence is anyone's guess. No, we're talking about the USCfootball.com dynamic duo of Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling reuniting to bring you a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast. The latest edition of the show features a recap and roundup of everything that took place last week during Pac-12 Media Day and a look forward at USC's fall camp action where the Feudsters will have two weeks to watch and evaluate the team (before practices take on serious new media restrictions). Only Keely was in attendance at this year's Pac-12 Media Day, held in Hollywood, while Shotgun checked in on the action from afar. In the middle of the night in a Javanese hut in Indonesia, he was able to keep tabs on the early portion of the event and the thing that stood out to him came from none other than Public...errr...Pac-12 Enemy No. 1, the $5 million man himself, Larry Scott. Keely and Shotgun discuss Scott's comments on where the conference's media rights deal sits with five years remaining and they have a long debate about playing collegiate football games at 9 a.m. Keely also shares her take on the rest of the Pac-12 Media Day, including Clay Helton's update on the roster with confirmations of Daniel Imatorbhebhe not participating this year, Trey Davis' transfer and academics keeping Jaylen Watson and Tilini Livai from making it onto campus. The feuders then break down the impending fall camp, including what to look for on Day 1, physicality expectations, positions of concern and expectation, what is needed from a quarterback to earn the starting spot, the freshmen to be most exciting about and the narratives that are expected during this year's camp. The Family Feud Podcasters also answer your listener-submitted questions about the best games to attend on the USC schedule this season -- both home and away -- and what offseason moves made by the Trojans will bear the most positive impact and the largest impact both in the short team and long term. We are looking to feature your question on an upcoming episode.

USC football's offseason is already off to the races. The Trojans finished their spring practice schedule on April 13, but they have continued to have developments since. They likely lost another player to the transfer portal as quarterback Matt Fink announced his intentions to enter a few days after spring camp's conclusion. But on Friday, USC finally got an addition from the portal, grabbing a commitment from offensive lineman Drew Richmond. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return with the latest edition of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss the latest roster development for USC and their reaction to how the 2019 NFL draft played out for the Trojans. The 6-foot-6, 320-pound Richmond comes to the Trojans from the University of Tennessee where he made 25 starts, including starting all 12 games at right tackle last year for the Volunteers. But what will he bring to the Trojans in his final year of eligibility? Shotgun discusses how Richmond's experience will provide leadership for the Trojans and how the added competition the offensive line will have with Richmond being thrown in the mix will push the group to be stronger. The Richmond addition could also follow a pattern set by another graduate transfer at USC, Keely says, before posing the question of how the offensive line lineup could be shaken up by Richmond's presence. The USCfootball.com duo then break down how the NFL draft played out with four USC players being selected, five Trojans signing as undrafted free agents and two others earning minicamp invites with teams. Chuma Edoga was selected first at No. 92 overall by the Jets in the third round. That was followed by Iman Marshall in the fourth round by the Ravens, Marvell Tell III a round later by the Colts as a cornerback and Cameron Smith by the Vikings in the fifth round. Which draftee found the best fit? What do each of the four draft picks have to do to make an impact with their teams? Which of the undrafted players have the best shot at pushing their way past other offseason additions to make a roster or at least a practice squad? And how does it affect Clay Helton and the program that there were no Trojans selected in the top two rounds of the draft? The Family Feud Podcasters answer those draft questions and your listener-submitted questions about the summer player-run practices, recruiting outside of Southern California, Reggie Bush's future with USC and how his new position at FOX affects the NCAA sanctions that have loomed over him and the football program for a decade now. Lastly, USCfootball.com's Chris Trevino asks whether a hot dog is a sandwich, leading to a deep dive into hot dog cuisine. We are looking to feature your question on an upcoming episode.

USC football's spring camp is over. It was a spring of change. New offensive system. New roles for several coaches. New emphases on discipline and turnovers. And as always, some new players stepping in -- a couple making immediate impacts. But already there has been change since the Trojans' camp came to a close as well. Just days after USC finished its allotted 15 practices, redshirt junior quarterback Matt Fink announced his intentions to enter the transfer portal. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return with the latest edition of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss the totality of the Trojans' spring camp, including the standouts, what we heard on the sidelines and from the coaches and the chances that Fink will find a new home during the summer or if he might be back in cardinal and gold in the fall. The USCfootball.com duo start the show with a discussion about Fink's situation and looking ahead at this weekend's NFL draft, discussing where some of the Trojans could hear their names called. That includes trying to figure out what exactly a failed drug test with a doctor's excuse could mean for outside linebacker Porter Gustin. Once they get into the Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely rattles off a laundry list of players that she thought stood out in a positive manner this spring. Atop her choices are a pair of defensive linemen -- Jay Tufele and Drake Jackson -- that look like they could be elite playmakers in the backfield. Shotgun's Stock Up list starts with new offensive coordinator Graham Harrell and the impact he's had over the five weeks of practice. His list is shorter and includes some of Keely's choices but for some different reasons. On the flip side, both feudsters have concerns on the defensive side of the ball in the back seven. The future of the starting cornerbacks is questioned in Keely's Stock Down as no one has yet separated himself from the pack. Clancy Pendergast's decision to move several linebackers to different positions is also a concern that the duo have after not getting much clarity in the final couple of practices. In the 'Heard it on the Sidelines' segment, the USCfootball.com pair dissect Clay Helton's extremely positive comments about the offense's ability to run the football and whether that is/can be a strength for the team. They also look at the intensity infusion that Johnny Nansen and Chad Kauha'aha'a have combined to give the defense and what some of the players have been saying to their teammates during practices. Should fans be positive coming out of spring? It seems like a preposterous thing to say for USC fans after a 5-7 season, but Keely and Shotgun discuss why it should be considered in the 'Agree/Disagree' portion of the show. The Family Feud Podcast also answers listener-submitted questions about how the team should be marketed following that 5-7 season and why JT Daniels seems to have so many haters.

USC's spring is winding down. The Trojans only have two practices remaining and have already had their "spring showcase." That showcase was essentially just a televised practice instead of an actual spring game, which was not feasible because of the Coliseum's renovations and the team's major depth issues at particular positions. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return with the latest edition of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss what to take away from the "spring showcase" and the coaches' assessment of that "spring showcase." In the Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely and Shotgun both are quick to talk about the one-handed interception by defensive lineman Drake Jackson that stole the show(case). Jackson also had a sack and continues to standout even amongst a cadre of quality defensive linemen, which Shotgun also incorporates into his Stock Up segment. Shotgun's answers surprisingly follow closely to Keely's Stock Up list from last week as he includes the work of underclassmen John Jackson III and Markese Stepp. Keely's risers include more veterans than youngsters as she highlights the adaptability of the offense being able to still compete despite missing its top three offensive tackles as well as the work that redshirt senior cornerback Dominic Davis has been putting in. While discussing the cornerbacks, Shotgun goes into his Stock Down list to point out that he has yet to see a cornerback solidify himself as a starter during the spring. He also has middle linebacker John Houston Jr. trending down as he's been working with the second team more and more the last week while Jordan Iosefa has been playing alongside Palaie Gaoteote IV. On Keely's list are USC's inconsistent philosophies and having the "spring showcase" not be the end of the spring camp. She also raises her concerns about a defense that isn't being talked about frequently. Shotgun debates whether that is just a product of a new offense versus the same defense with there just being more interest in what is new or if it's partly because it's hard to get a full read on the defense with so many positional contender MIA this spring. The quarterbacks take over the second half of the podcast. In the 'Heard it on the Sidelines' segment, the USCfootball.com duo dissect offensive coordinator Graham Harrell's comments about all four quarterbacks and where he sees them at this spring. They look at the duality of Harrell's breakdown on the positive and negatives for Jack Sears, Matt Fink, Kedon Slovis and JT Daniels. And is reading into it too much to look at Harrell's order of delivery of each quarterback? The question is posed whether any of the quarterbacks has actually stood out this spring during the 'Agree/Disagree' portion of the show and when the Feudsters answer your questions, they also look at the possibility of transfers from the quarterback group following the eventual naming of a starter. The Family Feud Podcast also answers listener-submitted questions about running backs, an alternate theory on Lynn Swann bringing back Clay Helton and a ranking of the new coaches.

A week and a half remains of USC's spring football practices. The Trojans have installed a version of the Air Raid offense and picked up the pace of practice under new offensive coordinator Graham Harrell. So what has been discovered through the first two-thirds of USC's spring camp? And what should be focused on during the final five practices in April? Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return with the latest edition of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss where the Trojans stand after 10 spring practices and how far along the offense is under Harrell. The Feudsters return to their in-season format as they survey the good and the bad from the first three weeks of practice. In the return of the Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely and Shotgun both give praise to the quickly-progressing offense with Shotgun focusing on the offensive synchronicity. They also remain high on some early-enrollee freshmen that have already been able to make a quick impression despite only being on campus for a couple of months. While Shotgun also highlights some players that have made positive gains as they return from injury, Keely admits that the new coaching staff members have been better than she anticipated from Harrell's offense to the fiery ways of running backs coach Mike Jinks and the hands-on approach of defensive backs coach Greg Burns. As they discuss the coaching staff, the USCfootball.com duo note that USC's coaches have been actively attacking some of the issues the Trojans consistently had last season. Keely once again fails to try to incorporate a Stock Neutral as Shotgun argues that what she describes is a Stock Unchanged. Stock Down is scattered around the team as Shotgun looks at the ball placement of Jack Sears and what he deems to be a "weird" usage of a stockpile of linebackers. The Trojans' lack of depth is discussed as is the significant drop off from the first team to the second team on the offensive line -- an element that has affected the quarterback play based on which grouping each quarterback is paired with on a given day. In the 'Heard it on the Sidelines' segment, Shotgun looks at how USC's offensive installation plan has been described while Keely notes a couple of defensive players being boisterous for two different reasons. The USCfootball.com duo talk about how much the Trojans are currently being graded on a curve this spring, whether there is really a quarterback competition and discuss a couple of changes that have taken place this spring during the 'Agree/Disagree' portion of the show. The Family Feud Podcast then answers listener-submitted questions about surprise contributors, favoritism, offensive line play and more.

A tumultuous offseason finally came to a partial close with USC football opening its spring camp on Tuesday. The Trojans got back to the field and we got our first look at a number of new faces -- both Class of 2019 members that graduated early and enrolled at USC in January and members of the coaching staff that are joining the team or switching duties on the staff. Shotgun Spratling and Keely Eure return to talk about the first impressions that the new faces and the new directives initiated by head coach Clay Helton made. Except, much like USC last year, this podcast features a role reversal. The Trojans aren't used to going 5-7. Keely and Shotgun aren't used to exchanging roles, but they took a minor step into the team's shoes, going out of their comfort zone and being challenged with a different experience. Shotgun was unable to attend the first practice, so he fills in the hosting role while Keely takes over as the analyst. Before they get into what was seen on the first day of spring camp, Keely and Shotgun have to first discuss the players that were not in attendance on the first day, including the mounting list of transfers that have left the program with some familiar faces that were expected to have a significant role on the team this season. Keely talks about how different the short-handed wide receiver and cornerback groups looked with only a select number of scholarship players available on the first day. The biggest drama of the offseason centered around USC's offensive coordinator position where Tee Martin had his playcalling duties taken away and then eventually his job as well. He was replaced temporarily by Kliff Kingsbury before the Trojans settled on Graham Harrell when Kingsbury left to be the Arizona Cardinals head coach. And the biggest change of the first spring practice came from the new offensive coordinator. Harrell left the practice field for a good portion of practice to take in things from above at Dedeaux Field next door to Howard Jones Field. Keely talks about how different the timing of that move and the dueling duo discusses the impact of this move and what it could mean for the offense going forward. Kelly gives her observations and analysis of other differences in the practice. Clay Helton was less involved in the offensive playcalling, but how was his new role as a manager watching over all the position groups and bouncing in between different drills and position groups. But did it seem like a different practice? She also discusses what she saw of the new coaching staff members, including a closer look at new defensive backs coach Greg Burns, and points out a couple of players that stood out in the helmets-only first practice.

This is Episode 26. In this episode, you’re going to learn how to understand and respond to an IELTS Academic Writing Task 2 essay question that is formatted as an Agree-Disagree question. First Eliot and I will explain the Task 2 requirements, and then we’ll walk you through the different ways you can write responses to three Task 2 Agree-Disagree example questions.

Okay, let’s get started! Part 1: Naomi: Today Eliot and I are discussing IELTS agree-disagree questions. You may run into this type of essay question in the Academic IELTS Writing Task 2. Eliot: In this episode, we’re going to go over three example agree-disagree question prompts, and show you the ways you could structure your response to each of them. Naomi: Before we get started with the example questions, let’s talk a little more about Academic Writing Task 2. Eliot, what do you think students should know about this section of the IELTS? Eliot: Well, IELTS Academic Writing Task 2 is the second of two writing tasks on the IELTS. In Task 2, you’ll be asked to respond to an open-ended essay prompt. If the prompt ends with the phrase: ‘To what extent do you agree or disagree’, you’re dealing with an agree-disagree essay question. Naomi: Task 1 definitely isn’t easy, but most students find IELTS Writing Task 2 even more challenging. Would you recommend that students spend more time on Task 2 than on Task 1? Eliot: Yes, definitely. You’ll have a total of 60 minutes to complete both tasks. I suggest that you spend only 20 minutes on Task 1 and use the remaining 40 minutes for Task 2. Naomi: Ok, so what makes Task 2 more difficult than Task 1? Eliot: Well, first of all, Task 1 just asks you to transfer information from a visual into writing. But Task 2 requires you to answer an open essay question. There’s no clear or “correct” answer. Naomi: And Task 1 has a lower minimum word count, right? Eliot: Exactly. Task 1 requires that you write 150 words or more, but for Task 2 you will be expected to write at least 250 words. Naomi: So are the two Tasks weighted equally in terms of points? Eliot: That’s a great question, and the answer is no! Task 2 is worth twice as many points as Task 1, so it’s a really good idea to spend a bit more time on Task 2. Naomi: So to recap: you recommend that students spend 20 minutes on Task 1 and 40 minutes on Task 2. How should students break down those 40 minutes? Eliot: Writing speed varies a lot from student to student, so how you’ll want to break down that 40 minutes will depend a lot on how fast you can write. Naomi: Can you give us a rough guideline? Eliot: Sure...I suggest you spend between 2 and 10 minutes planning your essay, 25 to 32 minutes writing, and the remaining 5 (or more) minutes editing your work. Naomi: Great, anything else students should know? Eliot: Well, the more you practice Task 2 responses, the quicker you will become, so don’t worry too much if you're not hitting your timing goals right away. You just need to keep practicing! Naomi: Before we hear the agree-disagree sample questions, let’s pause for a word from Magoosh. Midroll: Kevin: Do you want a great IELTS score? Magoosh can help!

Part 2: Naomi: So Eliot, let’s talk about the agree-disagree essay questions. What are some examples of this type of prompt? Eliot: An agree-disagree prompt would be something like: “The leaders or directors of organizations are often older people. But some people say that young people can also be leaders. To what extent do you agree or disagree?” Naomi: And how would you answer a question like that? Eliot: Before writing anything, you should have a clear point of view. Notice how the question asked “to what extent” do you agree or disagree? Make sure your answer responds to that part of the question. Naomi: What do you mean? Eliot: I would suggest that you choose one of the three following positions: Either, “I completely agree…”, “I completely disagree…”, or “I partly agree and partly disagree…”. Naomi: Oh, I see...So let’s start with the “I completely agree” answer. How would you structure a “completely agree” essay response to the prompt from earlier? Eliot: So remember the prompt was “The leaders or directors of organizations are often older people. But some people say that young people can also be leaders. To what extent do you agree or disagree?” Naomi: Right. Eliot: Begin with an introduction stating that you completely agree that young people can be leaders. Naomi: Okay, sounds like a good start. You’re writing a five-paragraph essay...that means that after the introduction there will be three body paragraphs, followed by a conclusion. What should you write for the body paragraphs? Eliot: Use each of the first two body paragraphs to state one reason why you agree with that young people can be leaders. You can use the third paragraph either to state a third reason why you agree, or to explain why the opposite view is wrong. Naomi: Okay, and what about the conclusion? Eliot: For the concluding paragraph, restate your position one last time, in this case, that you completely agree that young people can be leaders. Naomi: Okay great, thanks Eliot! Let’s look at another example question, and talk about how to respond if you “completely disagree”. Eliot: So here’s our second example question: “Maintaining public libraries is a waste of time since computer technology is now replacing their functions. To what extent do you agree or disagree?” Naomi: Okay, so where should you start? Eliot: It’s really the same format as for our last example. You’ll just be giving arguments as to why you think the view is wrong rather than right. Naomi: Okay, so start with an introductory paragraph stating that you completely disagree that maintaining public libraries is a waste of time? Eliot: Exactly! Then you’ll write your three body paragraphs. And in each one, give one reason that you think that computers aren’t a substitute for public libraries. Naomi: And then for your conclusion, should you quickly summarize your body paragraphs, and restate that computer technology hasn’t replaced public libraries, and therefore, we should still maintain them? Eliot: Yes, that’s perfect. You see how similar the “completely agree” format is to the “completely disagree” format? Naomi: Yes, it’s the same basic structure. You’re just arguing in the opposite direction. Eliot: Right. But if you decide you’re going to argue for “partly agree and partly disagree”, things will look a little different. Naomi: How so? Eliot: Well let’s look at one more prompt. Here’s the example: “People’s shopping habits depend more on the age group they belong to than any other factor. To what extent do you agree or disagree?” Naomi: Okay. So how do you answer? Eliot: In the introduction you’ll want to say that you partly agree and partly disagree that age group is the most important factor in determining shopping habits. Then state a few points you agree with and a few points you disagree with. Naomi: Okay, what about the body paragraphs? Eliot: You only really need two body paragraphs, but they’ll be a little longer than the body paragraphs in the “completely agree” or “completely disagree” answers. In the first body paragraph, explain the points you agree with. Then in the second body paragraph, explain the points you disagree with. Naomi: And then in the conclusion you’ll restate your view? Eliot: Exactly! And those are the three examples of how to answer agree-disagree Task 2 questions on the IELTS! Outro: So what did you think?

USC returned to Southern California licking its wounds this week after taking a beating, 41-28, at the hands of the Utah Utes on Saturday. It will try to bounce back this week. The Trojans put their unblemished home record under Clay Helton on the line against the Herm Edwards-led Arizona State Sun Devils. Like the Trojans, Shotgun Spratling and Keely Eure try to bounce back as well. They are coming off of a loss also, having dropped last week's episode of the Family Feud Podcast to illness. Keely was unable to go and her absence was too much to overcome for the dueling dream team. Similarly, the Trojans defense was unable to overcome the absences of linebacker captains Porter Gustin, who suffered a season-ending injury in the Colorado game, and Cameron Smith, who tried to play through knee and hamstring issues, but ultimately managed to be on the field for eight defensive snaps. USC gave up 41 points, but Keely and Shotgun argue that the blame can't be laid at the feet of the defense. That falls to an offense that struggled to move the chains, beginning the drive with seven three-play drives. The Trojans began the game 0 for 10 on third down conversions. They jumped out to a 14-0 lead, but for the second time this season, they gave up 34 consecutive points. The Trojans only managed to make the score respectable thanks to the play of the special teams and defense, scoring seven points and setting up a pair of drives to start inside the 20-yard line. Special teams makes the Stock Up list for the first time this season and is joined by Jay Tufele, who produced perhaps the highlight of the season thus far with a scoop-and-score big man touchdown. Michael Pittman Jr. is also featured in the segment after a beast mode second consecutive 100+ yard receiving effort to go along with a punt block. While Pittman has excelled, Shotgun points out how the JT Daniels-to-Amon-Ra St. Brown connection has fizzled recently as teams have tried to take away the middle of the field. Also in Stock Down is the morale of the fan base as most have turned on the current coaching staff. But nothing is as low as the Trojans' run game currently after another bad night trying to pick up yards on the group. That leads Shotgun to go on a rant about the offensive line play that includes what head coach Clay Helton had to say about correcting issues and what offensive line coach Neil Callaway said about success and failures this season. In the 'Heard it on the Sidelines' segment, Keely and Shotgun have observations from the game and this week's practices, including a little bit more fire from some players and staff than has been seen recently. Keely then tries to pin down agreements or disagreements from Shotgun about the state of the program, USC's future opponents, choice of game times and who will stand out on the offensive side of the ball for the Trojans this weekend. But Shotgun turns the tables with an Agree/Disagree of his own. They conclude the podcast answering your questions, discussing USC's choice to not huddle, Gustin's legacy as a Trojan and the potential differences with Jack Sears in the lineup, if Daniels does not clear concussion protocol before Saturday's 12:30 p.m. matchup at the Coliseum.

A bye week? In the middle of the season? What's up with that? A year after playing 12 straight games without a bye, the USC Trojans got a reprieve in October. USC played a tough September schedule and came out with a 3-2 mark after an unsatisfying 24-20 road win over Arizona. But it got a chance to regroup, recoup and recover. Now where will the Trojans go from here? Shotgun Spratling and Keely Eure are back in the studio to discuss that and more in the latest episode of the Family Feud Podcast. This week, they break down USC's trip to the desert and how the Trojans held on for a victory but disappointed the fan base even more along the way. Before getting into their normal segments, Shotgun and Keely debate the merits of trying to invest the extra time afforded by a bye week in trying to get healthy versus trying to get better. USC chose rest and recovery over full pads and tougher practices with as many as 26 players missing a single practice during the abbreviated bye week practice schedule. In this week's Stock Up/Stock Down segment, the duo of debate discuss the Trojans' rushing attack in different ways, look at a pair of young linebackers that got extra playing time against Arizona and talk about the effects of getting a week off from the regular grind on the positive side. Snapping, Pac-12 officiating and a pair of second-year defensive backs end up on Stock Down, but Shotgun and Keely have to argue over where special teams should be placed. In the 'Heard it on the Sidelines' segment, USCfootball.com duo have plenty of observations and overheard chatter from the Arizona game, including one player's off-hand post-game remarks that really stood out. The dynamic of the offensive line and the coaching being presented to the group is also examined. Following a week free of a USC game, the 'Agree/Disagree' section is replaced with a special 'Bye Week Bests' segment that looks back at the first five games of the season with the best position groups, players and impactful plays highlighted. Shotgun's top position group is unexpected while Keely argues about whether there should even be a 'Best Win' category.

USC bounced back from two straight losses to get a 39-36 win over Washington State. It wasn't pretty and was far from perfect, but the Trojans kept their perfect record at home under head coach Clay Helton. They did it by changing the narrative. After back-to-back games seeing the momentum snowball against them, the Trojans showed some mental fortitude and responded multiple times to attempts by Washington State to take control of the game. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return with the latest edition of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss what went right for USC and where the Trojans can still make improvements as they prepare for a trip to the desert to take on Khalil Tate and Arizona on Saturday at 7:30 p.m. PST on ESPN2. In this week's Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely and Shotgun both give some props to freshman safety Talanoa Hufanga for stepping in and making an impact immediately...as in second defensive play of the game. They also agree that there was a noticeable difference in the chemistry between JT Daniels and his veteran receivers as the USC offense continues to evolve. Shotgun also makes the unpopular choice to place two much-maligned units in his stock up. He argues that both the offensive line and special teams improved and agrees with Clay Helton that the "offensive line took a step forward." Stock Down is scattered around the team as there are still some team issues that have to be addressed as well as defensive specific concerns and a decline in the playing time and production of USC running back Aca'Cedric Ware. But one interesting note Keely and Shotgun saw in practice is that USC is actively attacking some of the issues it had from the week before rather than continuing to go with the same routine they have previously had. (Audience submissions also make the cut for Stock Up/Stock Down this week.) In the 'Heard it on the Sidelines' segment, Shotgun hears a familiar sound on the sidelines and talks about how the players and coaches reacted to the near touchdown by Michael Pittman Jr. just before halftime and the subsequent review. He also brings up a new sideline alignment the Trojans have implemented while Keely talks about Johnny Nansen's emphasis on contact in practice. The USCfootball.com duo talk about redshirting and playing time for young players in the Agree/Disagree segment. They debate how much Arizona will attack with Tate's legs this week and discuss the importance of each defender doing his assignment rather than trying to be a hero.

After hitting the road for a second week in a row, Shotgun Spratling and Keely Eure are back in the studio for another episode of the Family Feud Podcast. This week, the duo breaks down what went wrong in Austin and previews what the Trojans need to do in order to get a victory Friday. First off, Shotgun relives the exhaustion of traveling to Austin with the added difficulty of a short week. If the duo is this tired from USC's schedule, how will the fatigue factor affect the Trojans? Could the shortened schedule add a level of difficulty to Friday's matchup? Along the same lines, Keely and Shotgun debate head coach Clay Helton's decision for USC to practice only in shells this week. Is it necessary to practice in full pads during a short week? Will the lack of physicality rear its head on gameday? In this week's Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely and Shotgun have to work diligently to find Stock Up candidates following the lackluster showing the Trojans produced in Texas. They both agree that true freshman Amon-Ra St. Brown was a bright spot from the loss. The wide receiver had a career night that has his stock trending upwards. Keely adds a player to the Stock Up column even though he didn't have the best performance in Austin, while Shotgun highlights a solid performance by true freshman quarterback JT Daniels. It was much less difficult to find Stock Down candidates after a woeful performance from multiple USC units. The Trojans were not consistent enough to sustain drives, which bogged down repeatedly between the 30- and 50-yard line. A lot of the concern falls on the offensive line, who never seemed to be able to put together five stellar blocks on the same play and struggled with the Longhorns' zone pressures. Keely and Shotgun wonder if it's possible for USC to have a quick on the offensive line considering that the Trojans will see some of the same stunts and pressure from the Cougars front seven. In the 'Heard it on the Sidelines' segment, Keely gives her take on football in the state of Texas and what the atmosphere was like in the Darrell K Royal - Texas Memorial Stadium. Shotgun and Keely also share their thoughts on how practice went this week and if there were any notable changes. The USCfootball.com duo talk about coaching and offensive line play in the 'Agree/Disagree' section of the podcast, wondering aloud the impact the offensive line has and will have on the team this year, with Shotgun believing it is the most crucial element to the season. Keely and Shotgun also discuss what could happen if USC loses on Friday. Could the wheels start to come off for the Trojans?

We're back once more with all your Week 2 NFL coverage. A lot happened this week, we'll try to do our best to get through it all! James is introducing his "Agree/Disagree" segment this week.
Womp. Womp. Womp. USC went on the road in the always-intriguing early season top 25 conference matchup against Stanford and laid an egg. While it wasn't quite the giant goose egg, the Trojans only managed three little quail eggs for points, falling 17-3 to the Cardinal. The blame was plentiful and easily spread among a number of Trojan units and the coaching staff, in particular. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return to the USCfootball.com studio for a rare Wednesday episode of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss who USC fans should be really upset with and where there should be concern as the Trojans take to the road for a second week in a row. The Trojans head out of state for the first time this season, traveling to Austin, Texas to take on the burnt orange Longhorns on Saturday at 5:00 p.m. PST on FOX. In this week's Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely and Shotgun have to work diligently to find many Stock Up candidates following the lackluster showing the Trojans produced on the Farm. They do both agree on the positive work USC's backup safeties, C.J. Pollard and Talanoa Hufanga, did once they were thrown into the fix following an injury to starter Isaiah Pola-Mao on the first defensive drive of the game. A couple of defensive linemen also make the Stock Up cut to stay out of the Stock Idle pileup that collected many of the defensive Trojans. It was much less difficult to find Stock Down candidates after a woeful offensive output. USC was not consistent enough to sustain drives, which bogged down repeatedly between the 30- and 50-yard line. It got to midfield seven times and finished with just a single field goal. A lot of the concern falls on the offensive line, who never seemed to be able to put together five stellar block on the same play and struggled with some long, looping stunts that Stanford combined with zone pressures to create disruption up front for USC. Keely and Shotgun both agree that the tight end position had a poor showing in Palo Alto as well, but there could be possible good news soon as Josh Falo has practiced the last two days, Austin Applebee could be be back next week and Daniel Imatorbhebhe did some light work for the first time in more than a week. In the 'Heard it on the Sidelines' segment, Keely tries once more to display to Shotgun that Stock Neutral is a thing...and something all the youths are partaking in. She also takes a look at the vibe on the USC sideline, particularly in the second half of a game where the Trojans were only down by two scores but had the look of a team that had no chance. Shotgun talks about the different punctuation of a quick talk Clay Helton gave to the team right after stretching finished on Tuesday as compared to what Helton said last week about Stanford being the Trojans' toughest game all yea. The USCfootball.com duo talk about coaching and offensive line play in the 'Agree/Disagree' section of the podcast, wondering aloud the impact the offensive line has and will have on the team this year, with Shotgun believing it is the most crucial element to the season -- one that will determine where the Trojans go after their first loss of the season. The Family Feud Podcast ends this week with the questions you emailed us (familyfeudpod@gmail.com), including what Dr. Shotgun would prescribe for the USC team to fix their ailments and whether the Trojans are prepared for a focused Tom Herman and a trip to Austin.

Fall camp is over. The "mock game week" is over. Game week is here and the Trojans are ready to open the season. In the last week there have been plenty of developments around the teams as USC named a starting quarterback, unveiled its depth chart for the first game and made some subtractions from the roster. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling return to the USCfootball.com studio with a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss all of that and more. They break down the positives and negatives from the week, seeing where the Trojans stand leading into the season opener against the UNLV Rebels on Saturday at 1 p.m. PST on the Pac-12 Networks. In this week's Stock Up/Stock Down segment, Keely and Shotgun discuss the position battles that were settled over the last week, including the two spots in the defensive secondary where redshirt freshman Greg Johnson's technique earned him praise from his position coach and defensive coordinator and the starting cornerback spot for Saturday's game. The dueling duo also look at how the quarterback competition shook out. What earned true freshman JT Daniels the nod over two more experienced quarterbacks and what can we expect from the Santa Ana (Calif.) Mater Dei product in the opener? And even though Daniels won the competition, experience still played a factor in the quarterback depth chart. Shotgun looks at the Trojans' overall team health and where it stands compared to the first couple of weeks of fall camp. He presents a positive picture while Keely questions whether the Trojans are more injured than it seems, particularly with center Toa Lobendahn as Clay Helton has been dropping breadcrumbs over the last week. The duo then dives into the Agree/Disagree portion of the podcast where Keely peppers Shotgun with thought-provoking statements. Could Amon-Ra St. Brown finish second in receiving yards by the end of the season? Is there a logical fallacy between wanting USC to win big against UNLV and also wanting young players to get significant playing time? This episode of the Family Feud Podcast concludes with the questions that you emailed us (familyfeudpod@gmail.com), including Jackson in Virginia's series of over/under questions pertaining to the first game of the season and which Trojans might be the first to accomplish a number of feats this season.

When the USC football team took the field this week for its "mock game week," they may have going through the schedule for a fake game, but the competition was for real. The Trojans put together two of their most fiery practices in back-to-back days leading to great battles throughout the duo of days at Howard Jones Field. Some even took place after the whistle as players got in a number of tussles and dustups amongst each other. Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling are back in the studio with a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss the intense week of action. They look at where the Trojans stand with only a closed mock game that Clay Helton said will feature about 40 plays on Saturday and two more competitive practices next week before USC opens the season against the UNLV Rebels next Saturday at 1 p.m. PST on the Pac-12 Networks. In this week's Stock Up/Stock Down segment, the notorious feudsters actually agree on one portion! (We were surprised too.) They look at the safety spot opposite Marvell Tell III and discuss where that position battle between Bubba Bolden, Isaiah Pola-Mao and Ykili Ross seems to be trending. And what affect Ross missing out on some potential snaps during Wednesday's practice could have on that competition. Keely and Shotgun also look into the quarterback competition and see where the needle has moved between JT Daniels, Jack Sears and Matt Fink. And what type of movement could there be depending on who wins the job? In their Agree/Disagree segment, Shotgun surprises Keely with a question on the spot leading to flustered frustration as she debates back and forth how USC's depth chart will look when it is unveiled. This episode of the Family Feud Podcast concludes with the questions that you emailed us (familyfeudpod@gmail.com), including debating the impact of John Baxter being the full-time special teams coordinator and whether or not his units will play any better this season after a rough 2017 that included USC having its fewest number of punt returns per game in school history. Did the poor special teams play last year also hold USC back from blowing out some opponents? They also dive into the Family Feud mailbag and answer your questions!

The USC football team has made it beyond the halfway point of fall camp, but just how far along are the Trojans? Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling are back in the studio with a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast to discuss that and more. They look at what has happened in the first 10 competitive practices over the first two weeks and evaluate who is pushing themselves to the forefront and who is lagging behind. The dueling duo jump right into their Stock Up/Stock Down segment to debate who is excelling and who they want to see more from. One of the more interesting cases comes in the form of redshirt junior Ykili Ross. The hybrid defensive back who can play the safety and nickel back positions only had one full practice before tweaking his hamstring. He came out of the spring as the incumbent at the safety spot opposite Marvell Tell III, but having not seen the field in over a week and a half, where does Ross' stock stand? A USCfootball.com podcast this fall camp would not be complete without a discussion of the quarterback competition. Find out where Keely and Shotgun have the quarterbacks in their Stock Up/Stock Down segment and see what impact injuries have had on some of the position battles. The feuders bring back the "Heard it on the Sidelines..." segment to give you some of the most interesting tidbits they've heard while roaming the sidelines and from speaking with the players and coaches during fall camp, including what everyone is saying about true freshman receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown and how the dynamic between defensive backs coach Ronnie Bradford and new defensive consultant Dave Campo, a former NFL defensive coordinator and head coach, has played out. Finally, Keely and Shotgun end the show with their Agree/Disagree segment. In this segment, Keely asks if the Trojans should whittle down the quarterback competition after this weekend's scrimmage? The duo also discuss what kind of potential the USC defensive line has this season. Without Uchenna Nwosu, Rasheem Green and Josh Fatu, could the Trojans be even better than last year's team that tied for the most sacks in the nation? This episode of the Family Feud Podcast concludes with a discussion about season expectations and what type of record should be accepted as a quality season and what will be considered overachieving.

After a long hiatus, Keely Eure and Shotgun Spratling are back in the studio with a new episode of the Family Feud Podcast. On the eve of USC's first fall camp practice, the duo preview what they are looking for and will evaluate during the Trojans' training camp. First off, Keely and Shotgun recap their observations from the long offseason. Which players stood out during USC's player-run practices? How did the Trojans' incoming freshmen perform? Is JT Daniels play as advertised? How strong is the Daniels to Amon-Ra St. Brown connection? Will their strong connection help them standout in their perspective position battles? They also debate the new format of summer PRPs and if it benefiting or hindering the players. With fall camp just a day away, Keely and Shotgun discuss their expectations for fall camp. What are they looking forward to seeing in the upcoming weeks? Which position group has the most depth? What should USC's coaches be looking for when evaluating the quarterback battle? What are the keys to a successful training camp? The duo then gives a brief preview of each position group. First, they start where all eyes will be on Friday - on the quarterbacks. Then, they predict who will start on USC's offensive line. Could this be a make it or break it year for offensive line coach Neil Callaway? They also debate whether true freshmen Brett Neilon and Justin Dedich could see playing time. Finally, they discuss USC's running backs and run game. Could Tim Drevno have an impact on the Trojans' play calling and schemes? Moving on to the other side of the ball, they discuss the impressive depth that the Trojans' have on defense. Who will fill Chris Hawkins' safety position? Which player will play opposite Iman Marshall at the safety position? Will Clancy Pendergast rotate more players in games this season? Which players are guaranteed to start? Finally, Keely and Shotgun end the show with a new segment: Agree/Disagree. In this segment, Keely says a statement and Shotgun discusses - as you can probably guess - whether he agrees or disagrees. Is this USC team this year's Georgia? Will JT Daniels be the quarterback with the most starts at the end of the season? Could USC finish the month of September 4-1? We release new episodes of the Peristyle Podcast every week.

We don’t want to think about it but I’m sure lots of us do. What happens if/when we blow our knee? what does it mean when that happens, what are the mechanics that contribute to it; what choices need to be made for treatment and recovery? There are many things today to consider, and today, Brian Harder, a frequent guest and good friend of mine shares his philosophy, sadly, from personal experience. Earlier this year, Brian had an ACL injury in the backcountry. Being an orthopedic physician assistant and therefore medically trained, Brian brings some interesting and debatable albeit a scientific approach to dealing with a ruptured ACL. We’ll discuss factors that led to the incident and lessons to perhaps avoid your own. Hint: that GoPro on your head might have more consequences than you realize. We’ll analyze the incident itself and best practices for getting your sorry ass out of the backcountry without making the problem worse. After that, many decisions must be made: surgery immediately or later? What type of graft? How should I choose the right surgeon? Please note, although medically trained, this is obviously not medical advice. We all present unique factors and unique cases. Brian says so himself in the show - these are his opinions in a sea of opinions. You know we all have two things in common and one of those is opinions. You should do your own due diligence and discuss your specific case. Many would disagree with his thoughts here, while others would agree. Also, for context, Brian is 56 at the time of the recording. Well? What did you think? Agree? Disagree? have questions? we’d love to hear your experience - what worked for you, what you might have done differently. please include your age and fitness level when yo do. If you have questions, you can contact me privately or include it in the comments at takeabigleap dot com/ ACL With that, let’s listen in and gear up for what’s next: Where to find Brian: Instagram - brian.skimolife Blog You can find Brian at skimolife.com and on instagram at brian.skimolife

Every so often I get a question about the difference between cheap wine and better wine: “What’s the real difference? Why spend $25 when I can spend $2.50? Seriously, it’s just fermented grapes. Isn’t it all the same?” No. And despite the articles and taste tests of experts where the $2 wine wins a blind tasting, there is a difference between crap wine and good stuff. Let’s remember that those tests are in pressured environments, with artificial conditions (peer pressure, no food around so European wines lose every time). I’m telling you, even if you don’t know how expensive a wine is, when you taste something that is well made, there’s a big difference between that and plonk. I’m totally willing to buy that, like everything in wine, tasting quality is something you figure out as you learn more about wine. You may be at a place now where you can’t taste the difference. It will come with time and more tasting. Regardless of what you can or can’t taste, there are some serious, concrete differences between mass produced wine and wine that may be of interest. These are farming, winemaking, and flavor factors that distinguish wines from each other in both quality and price. So even if you can’t taste the difference today, maybe this will at least provide an explanation of the price difference between good wine and cheap wine and give you an appreciation of why some wineries charge more for their wine. There are three main factors: Since all great wine starts in the vineyard, the best vineyard sites are prized, limited and the grapes from there cost more. Let’s take wine out of the equation for a second. Let’s bring this to tomatoes. Ever been to a local farmer’s market? There are usually multiple people selling tomatoes. One week you buy tomatoes from a farmer whose wares look awesome and whose tomatoes are half the price of the vendor next to her. But when you slice the tomatoes open and taste them, they are acidic and too earthy for your liking. They lack sweetness and aren’t so juicy. So when you go back you spring for the more expensive ones. It ticked you off a little to have to pay double for a tomato, but you decide to do it anyway. When you cut open that tomato and taste it, the heavens open and angels sing. This is the best tomato you’ve ever eaten. You would pay 4 times the price of the other tomato for this experience. What’s going on here? It’s the effect of terrior and the brilliance of the farmer in picking the right fruit for the right place on her farm. Growing on the right spot, the tomatoes are heavenly. Growing on a less good spot, they suck. Grapes are the same way. So expect higher quality, better fruit to go into expensive wine. If someone grows grapes on crappy sites where grapes don’t gain maximum flavor and structure, the resulting wine is going to suck. If they grow it in a place with the right sun exposure, soil type, drainage, and slope, you get unbelievable grapes. And you can’t have great wine without great grapes. Period. So some of the expense of better wine is from the cost of growing on coveted, often hard to farm sites that make kick ass grapes. 2. Winemaking has another huge effect. If you don’t know what you’re doing and don’t use the right equipment (the right kind of barrels, the right type of maceration, fermentation) the wine isn’t going to be as good. Never is this more clear than when you’re touring around a wine region trying the wines. The wines of the area are from similar vineyards and sometimes from the exact same ones, but in the hands of different winemakers they taste completely different. The winemaker’s decisions can make or break a wine. So even if you’ve done a great job in the vineyard and you have beautiful grapes that have outstanding potential, you’re by no means done — it can still all go to pot. Trust me, I’ve seen this happen. In the hands of an overzealous, tech-loving winemaker, beautiful grapes can transform into a wine that tastes like a mouthful of vanilla and butter with no hint of the natural goodness that came from the land. Top wines have balance between acid, tannin, alcohol, and sugar (or lack thereof) and they are either reminiscent of fruit or of the land in which they grew. They aren’t oak bombs. They don’t taste like butter (although they can have the texture of velvet). They aren’t high alcohol without a balance of tannin or acid. A skilled winemaker understands the grapes s/he has to work with and uses techniques to highlight the deliciousness of the grapes, not to transform the wine into something completely different from the grapes they worked so hard to grow. Are barrels expensive? Good ones are. Is storing wine and allowing it to mature expensive? HELL YES! I’m a business dork, so I always think about inventory holding costs — not cheap. Do you sometimes have to painstakingly make a bunch of different lots form different areas of the vineyard and then blend them? If you want good wine, you may. When you pay for good wine, you’re paying for the great judgement of the winemaker. 3. Ultimately the taste, aroma, and texture of the wine are dead giveaways that you have something special. If you read the blog or listen to the podcast, you know that I’m quick to call BS on stuff in the wine industry that I think is ridiculous. But I promise you that as you have the opportunity to taste better wine, you will taste the differences between cheap and expensive glasses. The velvety feeling of high quality Pinot Noir, with just the right balance of fruit, acid, and light tannin. The ripe fruit flavors combined with a spicy earth and bright acidity of a New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc. The bacon, black pepper, and black plum notes against the bright acid and noticeable but not too rough tannin of a Northern Rhône Syrah. These experiences stand apart from the less expensive wines that are just fine, but not memorable. The more you drink the more you realize that there is a taste difference. I’ve watched the faces of friends light up when they taste a truly great wine versus the stuff they usually drink and it’s a different animal — they get it. I remember my own experiences of tasting fine wines for the first time and knowing that there was a big difference between what’s possible and what I normally drink on a nightly basis. You have to know what to look for, but when you do, drinking great wine (on special occasions, because what normal person can afford to every night?) is so rewarding and such a wonderful treat. What do you think? Agree? Disagree that there’s a difference? Write a comment and let me know!!!
