Podcasts about Billups

It's a bit of a cliché to say that we live in uncertain times. Just look at the headlines. Relationships — from the global to the intimate — are fraying. We swim in waters full of fear and worry, contempt and disdain. Anxiety abounds. That's why today's guest — writer and cultural commentator, Sara Billups — has written a new book. It's called “Nervous Systems: Spiritual Practices to Calm Anxiety in Your Body, the Church and Politics.” It's out now and — spoiler alert — Billups writes quite a bit about Ignatian spirituality. She looks to Ignatius' all-important idea of holy indifference as a way of approaching the anxiety-inducing moment in which we all find ourselves. You may recall that when Ignatius says “indifference,” he's not promoting a lifestyle that is apathetic or callous to the signs of the times. Rather, Ignatius wants us to let go of how we want things to go and to instead allow God's Spirit to use us as they Spirit wills. In short, God's ways are not our ways; so, let's put aside our preferences and discover God's. In addition to this new book, “Nervous Systems,” Billups has bylines in the New York Times and Christianity Today. She completed a Doctor of Ministry in the Sacred Art of Writing at Peterson Cetner for the Christian Imagination at Western Theological Seminary. She writes a Substack called “Bitter Scroll” and hosts a podcast called “That's the Spirit.” You can learn more about Sara and her work by exploring the links below.

Today on the podcast, Merideth chats with Seattle-based writer Sara Billups, who explores faith and culture in her new book, Nervous Systems. They discuss the connection between anxiety and creative drive, and Sara shares a powerful spiritual practice called "holy indifference," which can free artists from the tyranny of outcome. They chat about sharing work when you're an Enneagram 4 and also offer practical steps for setting boundaries with social media to protect your most vulnerable work.

An Unlikely Offering Everyone has something meaningful to contribute to the world. Whether it's something simple like sharing a smile, or a life saving surgery, everyone has something to share. One particular event in Jesus' story illustrates this so well. He was sharing a meal with friends and he received an unlikely gift, from an unlikely person. But instead of speaking harshly, he spoke with tenderness and gratitude. Each one of us has gifts we can offer the Lord. Those gifts will draw others closer to Jesus and will make us become even more like Jesus. Listen in as we welcome back Pastor Rachel Billups and dive into the life of Jesus and learn together what it's like to bring an unlikely offering. ginghamsburg.org

In this episode of Hoopsology, hosts Justin and Alan welcome back Portland Trail Blazers insider Danny Marang (Rip City Wrap-Up, 1080 The Fan, KATU Portland) to break down the fallout from the Chauncey Billups FBI gambling investigation and what it means for the future of the league. Marang takes us inside the story — revealing how he first heard about the news, the emotional reaction in Portland, and how this unprecedented scandal involving Billups, Terry Rozier, and Damon Jones connects to the mob, FBI tactics, and sports betting's growing influence on the NBA.

Will opens by noting it's a packed sports week with the NHL rolling, the NBA beginning, the NFL playoff picture taking shape, and the Blue Jays-Dodgers World Series about to begin. He reports that Trevor Story is expected to opt in with the Red Sox out of loyalty after the team supported him through injuries, and argues Story is essential to their 2026 hopes. He gives the Dodgers a slight edge in the World Series but says Toronto is dangerous because they're playing with “house money” and have a whole country behind them. He reflects on Brad Marchand's return to Boston as a Panther as the emotional end of the 25-year Boston sports dynasty era. He recaps Cooper Flagg's NBA debut and frames him — with Victor Wembanyama — as part of the league's next generation. He ends by reading an ESPN report about FBI arrests of Chauncey Billups, Terry Rozier, and Damon Jones in an illegal sports betting and poker-fixing investigation.

Sara Billups returns to Shifting Culture to talk about her new book Nervous Systems: Spiritual Practices to Calm Anxiety in Your Body, the Church, and Politics. Together we explore the anxiety running through our lives, our churches, and our culture and what it means to find peace that's deeper than control. Sara shares how Ignatian spirituality and the practice of “holy indifference” can help us let go, stay present, and love well in a restless world. We talk about caregiving, community, mental health, and how the embodied way of Jesus leads us toward healing, trust, and wholeness.Sara Billups is a Seattle-based writer and cultural commentator whose work has appeared in the New York Times, Christianity Today, Aspen Ideas, and others. Sara writes Bitter Scroll, a monthly Substack letter and co-hosts the podcast That's the Spirit.

Last Thursday, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) announced it had made arrests in a pair of investigations into illegal gambling involving National Basketball Association (NBA) players and coaches. Miami Heat guard Terry Rozier is among those charged in the illegal sports betting case, while Portland Trail Blazers coach Chauncey Billups and several others are charged with participating in rigged poker games with ties to the mafia. According to FBI Director Kash Patel, the bureau has arrested 34 people as a result of the multi-year investigations, which covered 11 states and involved tens of millions of dollars. Billups and Rozier have been placed on leaves from their teams, and the NBA announced a review of its gambling rules.Ad-free podcasts are here!To listen to this podcast ad-free, and to enjoy our subscriber only premium content, go to ReadTangle.com to sign up!I actually met them.Last year, the podcasts Question Everything and This American Lifedid a feature on the work we do here at Tangle.

On this episode of Conduct Detrimental: THE Sports Law Podcast, Dan Lust (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@SportsLawLust)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠is joined by Tarun Sharma (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@tksharmalaw⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠) to break down the only story anyone's talking about this week: the NBA's twin gambling scandals...including what they mean for the league, its leadership, and the future of sports integrity.Dan and Tarun talk the FBI's dual indictments involving current NBA players and coaches, including Terry Rozier and Chauncey Billups, and why the feds may have intentionally linked the “inside betting” and “mob poker” operations to send a message directly to the league. The duo unpacks the alleged role of organized crime, how player data triggered suspicious betting alerts, and why the NBA's initial decision to “clear” Rozier may come back to haunt Commissioner Adam Silver.They revisit the echoes of the Tim Donaghy scandal and debate whether this could force a true reckoning on gambling oversight in pro sports. Plus, Dan argues that this moment may finally be the “truth serum” that leagues can't sweep under the rug.Then, the duo touch on the NCAA's last-minute reversal of its new betting policy allowing college athletes to wager on pro sports—spurred by the timing of the NBA's scandals and pushback from SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey. They discuss how NIL-era agents and crossover access to information could further complicate things for both college and pro leagues.To close, Dan drops his “bet of the week,” explaining why Justin Herbert at +3500 for NFL MVP might be the most mispriced line on the board. What to Watch For: Tarun highlights LSU's multi-million-dollar Brian Kelly buyout and how skyrocketing coaching payouts are driving private equity interest in college athletics.

The NBA is taking the first steps to address sports betting concerns after its recent high-profile gambling arrests. Correspondent Gethin Coolbaugh reports.

Elias and Fuad are back for another edition of 3 in the Key! The fellas discuss the crazy first week in the NBA which included a 50 point game, multiple 40 point games and an FBI investigation. 

Federal authorities allege that the ring busted for running illegal sports and card-games used highly advanced and coordinated cheating technology. In the poker portion of the scheme, underground high-stakes games were manipulated using rigged shuffling machines that secretly read the deck's cards and transmitted which players held strong hands to an off-site operator, who then signaled a co-conspirator at the table (called the “quarterback” or “driver”) to direct bets accordingly. Devices included poker tables equipped with hidden X-ray cameras beneath the felt to identify face-down cards, chip trays with built-in analyzers/cameras, decoy cellphones to relay information, and decks marked so that only accomplices wearing special lenses or glasses could see the marks.In the sports-betting arm of the investigation, insiders harvested and sold non-public information about professional basketball players' injuries, playing time, and game-day decisions. Players or coaches allegedly tipped off conspirators to when they would sit out or exit early due to an injury, creating prop-bet opportunities. Wagers were placed accordingly on unders or player performance outcomes, using insider info to create a virtually guaranteed edge. The two schemes overlapped, involving organized-crime networks, professional athletes, and complex laundering of ill-gotten proceeds.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:How mafiosi and NBA stars used rigged card shufflers, X-ray tables and secret contact lenses in poker scamBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation wrapped up a massive federal investigation on October 23 2025 that took down 30+ people across 11 states for illegal gambling and sports-betting schemes. One major case, dubbed “Operation Royal Flush,” involved rigged high-stakes poker games backed by Mafia families—complete with manipulated shuffling machines, even X-ray tables to cheat players. Billups, head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers, was arrested in Oregon for participating in one of the rigged games; prosecutors say he acted as a “face card” to lure bettors and was paid to attend games he knew were fixed.In a related but separate probe, the FBI also charged players and coaches for using inside information from NBA teams to place bets. For example, Terry Rozier of the Miami Heat was accused of providing confidential team info so that bets could be placed advantageously. Billups wasn't charged for this insider betting part, but he is facing serious wire-fraud and money-laundering charges for the poker ring.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation wrapped up a massive federal investigation on October 23 2025 that took down 30+ people across 11 states for illegal gambling and sports-betting schemes. One major case, dubbed “Operation Royal Flush,” involved rigged high-stakes poker games backed by Mafia families—complete with manipulated shuffling machines, even X-ray tables to cheat players. Billups, head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers, was arrested in Oregon for participating in one of the rigged games; prosecutors say he acted as a “face card” to lure bettors and was paid to attend games he knew were fixed.In a related but separate probe, the FBI also charged players and coaches for using inside information from NBA teams to place bets. For example, Terry Rozier of the Miami Heat was accused of providing confidential team info so that bets could be placed advantageously. Billups wasn't charged for this insider betting part, but he is facing serious wire-fraud and money-laundering charges for the poker ring.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
