Peabody Award-nominated writer and Episode 389 guest David Fleming (“Breaker Boys: The NFL's Greatest Team and the Stolen 1925 Championship”) returns to the show to unpack one of the National Football League's most chaotic and fascinating chapters: the disaster of the 1952 Dallas Texans. In his new book,"A Big Mess in Texas: The Miraculous, Disastrous 1952 Dallas Texans and the Craziest Untold Story in NFL History," Fleming chronicles the league's first attempt to plant a professional football franchise in football-crazed Texas — a venture so ill-fated that the NFL reportedly still disavows it. Fleming guides us through the Texans' brief and turbulent existence, from their origins as the financially struggling New York Yanks to their relocation to Dallas under the ambitious but ill-prepared Miller brothers. We explore a 1–11 season riddled with logistical nightmares and meet the team's unforgettable characters: future Hall of Famers Art Donovan and Gino Marchetti, unsung heroes like Buddy Young and George Taliaferro, and a broader cast of characters who fought to keep the team afloat despite unrelenting chaos. You'll hear about rattlesnakes on the practice field, barroom brawls, bounced checks, paternity suits, one-legged trainers, humiliating defeats, a miraculous victory, strip poker with groupies, and even a future Hall of Fame coach stealing a cab. Amidst the madness, Fleming spotlights the Texans' lone shining moment: a Thanksgiving Day "home game" upset over the Chicago Bears at the Rubber Bowl in Akron, Ohio — an improbable triumph that perfectly captured the team's fleeting flashes of brilliance against a constant tide of organizational mayhem.

Psychology has played a role in the development of communications, marketing and advertising since these fields have been around. We have heard about tactics like subliminal advertising, aspirational messaging, and other ways of creating messages to influence others. Understanding why these techniques exist and whether or not they are helpful or harmful are important to marketers is critical to understand how we improve our approach to communications. In this episode Cathy Faye, the Margaret Clark Morgan Executive Director of the Drs. Nicholas and Dorothy Cummings Center for the History of Psychology at The University of Akron, gives her perspective on the role that psychology has played on marketing and communications.

What happens when one of the greatest shooters in Atlantic 10 history trades the net-scorching for whistle work? You get Coach Jessica Jenkins—Akron's assistant coach and recruiting coordinator—quietly (and relentlessly) building elite shooters and a winning culture.Hailing from Marion, Ohio, Jenkins became a legend at St. Bonaventure, drilling 338 career threes and leading the Bonnies to the 2012 NCAA Sweet 16. After a multi-year pro career overseas (Iceland, Wales/England league, Australia), she jumped into coaching and never looked back. Now in Year 11 of her coaching journey and Year 3 at Akron, she's helping the Zips turn gym rats into game-winners.In this episode, you'll hear:Origin Story: Growing up in the gym with a coach mom, learning to compete with older boys, and finding her lane as a pure marksman.Becoming “Dead-Eye”: How a blunt freshman-year meeting unlocked an All-A10 career—by living in the gym and perfecting footwork, conditioning, and release.Science of the Shot: Why you can teach shooting—and how Akron's NOAH tech (arc, depth, left-right in real time) + reps + accountability builds confident, consistent snipers.Calm Over Chaos: Jenkins' sideline superpower—never riding the wave.

Bonus Stop: Edzel Ford's home, son of Henry Ford! After touring Greenfield Village I decided I wanted to go to a bonus stop instead of another day at Greenfield Village. I was stunned by the outward aesthetic similarities of the Stan Hywet mansion. My wheels were spinning and memories flooded my mind from all the visits I had going to Stan Hywet from going with my mom to even working there. Railroads The Stan Hywet mansion is located in Akron, OH, my hometown, the “Rubber Capitol of the WORLD”! I shared a lot about the history of Firestone and Goodyear, who used a lot of rubber making tires, in this episode. But on this day of my fieldtrip, I thought about what made Ford so successful? It was making the gasoline engine car affordable for more people, specifically farmers. I gave a little background on Rockefeller and Vanderbilt too to prove my point of “access equals success”. And remember in the other homes the extensive libraries? Access to education and knowledge, right? And you know what made those two successful? The railroads because it provided transportation and access to more products and places. They were able to get their products to more people. And what do you think gave the North the upper hand in the Civil War? The railroads because they could transport supplies. And the other thing that made Ford so successful was his ability to pay his employees a higher pay than other companies. He was making more profit therefore able to pay his employees a higher rate. I couldn't help but to think about Eleanor Ford's role (Edzel's wife) in their home. She lived for 35 years still after Edzel passed. She had a sitting room off of her bedroom upstairs, that she turned into her study. She ran her household manager responsibilities from that study. And although she wasn't fond of the entertainment wing, she knew it was expected of her to entertain. She was very philanthropic and sat on many boards. But she was the queen of productivity. You see she would have multiple board meetings going at one time and then she could just pop in and out as they were being conducted. Genius! Internet Just like railroads were the gateway to transporting goods and people, now Google, Facebook, Apple, and Microsoft transport information. And just like the Goodyears and Rockefellers could get their products to more people, it is the same way I can impact more lives. They have been able to be really successful in a shorter amount of time than before the internet and able to provide better benefits for their employees due to their success. Organize 365® could not be what it is today without the internet. It gets more products to more people. It provides a more level playing field because it is accessible to all. And it has allowed me to learn about business and manufacturing. And because of the internet … we have podcasts! Yet another avenue to learn and/or get your message out. I always like to think of how women made their mark on change in society through their uniqueness. Artificial Intellagance I don't even know what to do with AI! (sigh) As technology advances so too does our ability for everyone to be successful due to a more level playing field for small businesses. Technology, transportation, and information provides access to more education. I wanted to take this series to think about where we have been as women, how it is now as women, and where we are going for women. What change could you have on society by doing what you are uniquely created to do? EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter Did you enjoy this episode?

✦ The band DEVO has been holding up a funhouse mirror to America for nearly fifty years. They broke out of Akron, Ohio, in the late '70s with a sound that was part punk, part art experiment, and all warning signs. Their concept of 'de-evolution'—that instead of progressing, society was actually regressing—felt satirical back then. But looking around today, it feels eerily predictive. As we face cuts to public radio funding and political attacks on the arts, DEVO's vision of a culture slipping backward suddenly feels less like a metaphor and more like the nightly news. When the band was in town for Shaky Knees on Sunday, City Lights Collective co-host Kim Drobes caught up with founding members Mark Mothersbaugh and Gerald Casale to discuss the stakes for artists today, how this moment connects to their work, and what survival—and maybe even resistance—looks like in 2025. ✦ Two of Oakland Cemetery's beloved programs are coming together for a full day of music and community. WABE arts reporter Summer Evans has more on the makeup/mashup they're calling Sunday in the Park featuring Tunes from the Tombs. ✦ As summer winds down and Atlanta weather moves from merely "tolerable" and increasingly towards "pleasant," you might be compelled to engage in some outdoor festivities, and you're in luck because the East Atlanta Strut is this Saturday! City Lights Collective Engineer Matt McWilliams has more on how this neighborhood likes to let loose, throw down, and let its freak flag fly. ✦ We love visiting with our artistic community "In Their Own Words." This is where they tell us who they are, what they do, what they love, and a few things you might not see coming. What things? Who knows, there's only one way to find out. Today, we shone a light on Atlanta artist Cyrus Nelson and Atlanta comedian Dante Quitman. ✦ You can see how dancers become one with nature in the new Flux Project film "Braiding Time, Memory and Water." Created by Core Dance artistic director Sue Schroeder, the film was a collaboration with conceptual artist Jonathon Keats and composer Felipe Pérez Santiago. The dances took place along the Chattahoochee River, and the film will be screened on Core Dance's storefront each evening through October 12. WABE arts reporter Summer Evans recently spoke with Schroeder about the project. ✦ Atlanta has a rich and lasting tradition of amazing poetry open mics. In venues, grottos, parks, and cafes all over the city, people speak their loudest truths, deepest hurts, and immeasurable joys to finger-snapping audiences. Some poetry open mics come and go, and some stick and stay. The Thursday night open mic at Urban Grind is the latter. Every Thursday night for the last nineteen years, people have taken the floor and taken the invitation to speak, even if their voices tremble. City Light's Collective Co-Host Jon Goode sat down with the Owner of Urban Grind, Cassandra Ingram, and longtime host B Rock to discuss the legacy and future of the iconic event.

It's the first day of fall , or as some people weirdly call it, "autumn". We get into the dread of seasonal depression as the days get shorter and share a truly chaotic story after Dan decided to seal the entire driveway by himself. Shoutout Bucky.We finalize our road trip to Akron, Ohio, to hopefully podcast on the Goodyear blimp! We're a little concerned about the passenger rules apparently. We also had to get a few things off our chests, from the bizarre rise of AI-generated podcasts to an update on that podcaster who fakes their numbers and somehow landed a Spotify deal. To prove we're still a sports podcast, we talk about the return of the Women's Professional Baseball League and read off a list of the wildest names in college football, including "General Booty" and "Dude Person". We wrap it all up with a great story about NFL player DK Metcalf, who learned American Sign Language to connect with the deaf community and trash-talk his opponents on the field.
This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Greg and Minnie will quickly recap Nebraska Football's 59-7 win over the Huskies of Houston Christian University. A week after the 68-0 destruction of Akron, the Huskers posted another lopsided win, and got into the depth charts in the process. The starters sat the second half, giving an opportunity to TJ Lateef, Cortez Mills Jr, Kwentin Ives, and a host of others to maintain the standard that Dylan Raiola and Co. established in the first half of the contest. But as Good Ol JR would say, "business is about to pick up" this weekend when the #21 Michigan Wolverines come to Lincoln. This marks the eighth game between the schools since Nebraska joined the Big Ten Conference, most of he match-ups going the way of the Wolverines. Will this be the year that the Huskers overcome Michigan, beat a ranked team, and finally take the next step into recovering their place among the college football elite?
On The Kenny & JT Show we welcome in Chad Bailey from Akron Auto Auction and akronautoauction.com.

Yesterday, I was discussing how cell phones are being banned in schools across America. And recently I thought of another potential ban. Then, less than two weeks later, it looks like a school in Akron, Ohio, is taking the lead. They are instituting a water bottle ban. And I have a feeling they won't be the last. Today, everyone carries around a water bottle, whether it's a Yeti, Stanley, Owala, or some off-brand. One potential problem with these big metal bottles is that they can be used as weapons. And while I carry a big 46-ounce jug, one of my nephews carries one that's even bigger than that...

“When you're a kid, you have so little control over things. To be the big entity controlling the smaller entity, whether it's dolls or [toy] soldiers or whatever it is, they do what you tell them to do. They become the story you are making.” — Brian SelznickWe all want to feel in control, mold our lives and experiences, and shape the world into something we can hold. But control is slippery; one moment, it can steady us, the next, it slips away. Brian Selznick—#1 New York Times bestselling author, illustrator, and Caldecott Medal winner—has spent his career playing with this tension. From "The Invention of Hugo Cabret" to "Wonderstruck" and, most recently, "Run Away With Me," Brian believes that it's his job as the author to control the reader's experience, forcing page turns and placing illustrations in a particular order, all while acknowledging that control is ceded to the reader once a book is in their hands.In this episode, Under My Thumb: Brian Selznick on Control, Brian reflects on his lifelong pull toward control in life and art—what drives it, how it shapes his work, and when the need to let go becomes inevitable. He shares his fascination with all things miniature and opens up with unflinching honesty about his complicated relationship with his father, spanning life and loss. He also reveals a formative influence you might not expect, and a most extraordinary afternoon with Ray Bradbury.Settle in for a fascinating, moving episode with one of the great creators of our time.***For his reading challenge, Brian has curated two lists: one exploring queerness in literature over time and the other celebrating the power of the page turn. The latter is about his commitment to books, experimenting with form, and the balance of control between writer and reader.Peruse selected titles and Brian's complete reading challenge for free at thereadingculturepod.com/brian-selznickThis week's Beanstack Featured Librarian is Chelsea Pisani, a rockstar children's librarian at Maple Valley Branch Library in Akron, Ohio.

When Grace Myers laces up her running shoes, she's not checking her GPS watch or loading up on the latest sports nutrition—she's tapping into something more fundamental. On this episode of The Hobby Jogger, we meet a runner who qualified for Boston Marathon without using a single calorie of race fuel, who pushed strollers through training runs until the tires literally wore out, and who found her way back to the trails after surviving a terrifying assault.Grace's running journey spans over two decades, beginning as a 13-year-old running loops in her parents' yard. Her unconventional approach continued when she qualified for Boston Marathon at the challenging Akron course, only to miss the adjusted qualifying time by one second. In a remarkable twist, Sam Adams Beer Company offered her a sponsored entry—though COVID ultimately transformed her Boston experience into a virtual run around her neighborhood.The conversation takes a powerful turn as Grace courageously shares the story of being assaulted during a run just over a year ago. With remarkable candor, she discusses how this traumatic experience changed her relationship with running without breaking it. "I didn't want that taken from me as well," she explains, describing how important it was to remain the same person her children had always known despite the trauma.Today, Grace has found renewed joy in trail running, recently tackling the challenging first leg of the Laurel Highlands Trail relay and contemplating her first 50K ultramarathon. Drawing strength from her Polish heritage and the example of her grandfather who ran into his seventies, she embodies a resilient spirit that sees running not as a competitive pursuit but as a lifelong companion through all of life's challenges.Whether you're a seasoned runner or just beginning your journey, Grace's story reminds us that running offers not just physical benefits but profound emotional resilience. Subscribe now to hear more inspiring stories from everyday athletes finding extraordinary strength through running.

Welcome back to The Let It Fly Show! This week, host Mike'l Severe dives deep into the most exciting upcoming games and possibly the biggest match this year, Crawford vs. Canelo. Diving into how the match may go and where to place your bets.
Munson gives us some boots on the ground reporting after Nebraska's 68-0 win over Akron. Which recruits will be visiting Lincoln tomorrow and the week of the Michigan game.
Last year, Nebraska beat Colorado, 28-10, and came back down to Earth a little bit in a 34-3 win over Northern Iowa---the game was not really ever in question (21-3 lead at halftime), but fans didn't like UNI having a 16-play, 62-yard drive that led to a FG UNI had 301 yards in that game, with their QB having success on the ground…having already beaten Akron by a million and this being an 11am game, would anyone be surprised if Nebraska looks sluggish? And is that acceptable in any regard?

In the latest episode of the Pick Six Podcast, Sam McKewon and Evan Bland discuss where Nebraska's win over Akron ranks among other dominant Husker wins and look ahead toward Houston Christian.
We knew Nebraska would likely have few issues beating Akron, but did you or anyone envision 68-0 being possible? How impressive was that beatdown on Saturday? Nebraska does play a game this weekend---vs. Houston Christian—but it's hard to not look ahead to Michigan…how much has your opinion about Nebraska's chances in that game changed from before the season, if at all? Nebraska had more punt return yards in the Akron game than they had the entirety of last season…was that just a bad punter for the Zips or signs of the punt return game being a factor the rest of season?

Jessica Coody sat down with tight end Luke Lindenmeyer for a Cornhusker Conversation ahead of Nebraska Football's home opener against Akron.
The Husker247 Podcast wanted to focus itself on defense after a lot of conversation following the 66-0 win over Akron was on the offense. So what are we making of John Butler through two games? How do we feel about the rush defense or the pass rush? What about individual units? Then Mike Schaefer and Brian Christipherpson put the special teams under a microscope and finally finish up with the offense, Dylan Raiola and bonus chatter regarding the Canelo vs. Crawford fight happening on Saturday night.

Dr. Rob Zatechka and Travis Justice are back with another episode of the Husker Doc Talk Podcast. Nebraska dominated Akron in a 68–0 shutout, but as Dr. Rob reminds us, even near-perfect performances leave room for growth. The blowout gave the Huskers a valuable chance to get younger players much-needed game reps, a benefit that will pay off down the road. With another cupcake matchup on deck against Houston Christian, Travis and Dr. Rob shift gears to the broader landscape of college football. From early-season surprises to head coaches already feeling the heat, the guys break down who's in trouble and why.
