The USC 2025 football season is well underway after a Week 2 win over Georgia Southern in the Clay Helton Bowl. Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino were both on the sidelines from the Coliseum for a front-row seat to USC's 59-20 win over the Eagles. Trevino and Spratling dive into their 'Two-Minute Drill' with the former taking time to talk about the emotions of seeing Helton once again in the Coliseum while Spratling takes the time to show some extra love for senior defensive end Anthony Lucas recording the first two sacks of his career. The Helium Boys dive into their Stock Up, Stock Down segment, which includes USC's offensive line, the running back room, the duo of Makai Lemon and Ja'Kobi Lane and the Trojans' early sack production. The Helium Boys then dive into the second half of the show to preview Purdue, which represent USC's Big Ten opener and first road game of the season. This is a reunion game for a multitude of reasons: USC starting QB Jayden Maiava played under Odom at UNLV in 2023, guiding them to the Mountain West Championship game. Former USC offensive line coach and offensive coordinator Josh Henson left the Trojans this offseason to be the offensive coordinator with the Boilermakers. Henson was part of Lincoln Riley's initial staff in 2022. Former USC wide receiver Charles Ross was on the team but was forced to medically retire. Former USC and Georgia wideout Michael Jackson III is one of the top contributors. The podcasting duo then answer your questions about everything from the recruiting impact of USC's 2-0 start to double coverage potentials to Caleb Williams' reputation. Following the questions, Chris takes the reins for the 'Take It or Leave It' segment along with the 'Overtime' period, which includes Amelia Earhart, Purdue Pete, a special boilermaker and a live mascot discussion. We release new episodes of the Peristyle Podcast nearly every day during the season.

The handsome trio talks about what's going well, what's concerning them and the challenge ahead for our Boilers that'll be in Ross-Ade Stadium on Saturday. Purdue takes a massive jump up in the quality of opponent...are they ready for the test?
On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking USC's second-straight blowout victory at home to start the 2025 college football season, a 59-20 beatdown of Georgia Southern led by former Trojan head coach Clay Helton. Coach Hyde talks about the Trojan offense that pretty much did whatever it wanted, with huge plays in the passing game and a running back group led by Waymond Jordan that Coach Hyde really thinks can be special. Flipping over to the defensive side, there are more concerns there with the way the Eagles were able to pick up yardage in the run game and put a few scoring drives together against the Trojans. The USC coaching staff was rotating players early, but Coach wants to see they figure out their best lineups so they can be playing at an optimal level in Big Ten play. He would also like to see the linebackers be more of a presence and play in the opponent's backfield more and have the cornerbacks make plays on the ball more and prevent some of the coverage busts that have happened early in the season. Coach Hyde finishes the show talking about the upcoming game against Purdue, with head coach Barry Odom already doubling the Boilermakers win total from 2024. This road contest could be a significant challenge for the Trojans, and coach wants to see this team go into with a business like attitude, play well and come home with the first conference victory of the season. Coach Harvey Hyde has been part of the Peristyle Podcast since 2008 and in the USC football world he is an expert on X's and O's, personnel, coaching philosophies and recruiting.

Cluff's officially A-OK, Paint disdains nice-nice tampering coaches...and Are they pros?
Listen to BDowd butcher analogies and talk about things he doesn't know anything about...in other words, a normal stream.
Doug Lesmerises and Bill Landis are back with another Kings of the North, exploring the rebuild situations at West Virginia and Purdue and what's worked for successful turnarounds in the past. Then, it's another KOTN Showdown between the Mountaineers and Boilermakers. Who would you rather be in 2025? But first, BYU needs a new quarterback. Thanks for watching and listening to Kings of the North.
Purdue football isn't loved by the national media...but the rebuild continues by Odom and company. Also, a bit of Pacers talk as they prepare for game 7 in Oklahoma City.

What if the worst-performing team you've ever seen could become the best—without changing a single person? Today, Peter Winick sits down with Michael Abrashoff, former U.S. Navy captain and author of the mega-bestseller "It's Your Ship: How Great Leaders Inspire Ownership From The Keel Up". Michael shares the extraordinary turnaround story of the USS Benfold—once one of the lowest-ranked ships in the fleet—and how he transformed its culture by focusing on something rare in the military: personal connection. He didn't ask for a new crew. He didn't get a bigger budget. What he did instead? Interviewed all 310 sailors, created personal index cards with their goals, strengths, and passions—and committed to leadership by listening. Peter and Michael dig into the difference between authority and influence, and why so many brilliant technical leaders fail when they're promoted. Michael also explains how he helped shift a culture of compliance into a culture of ownership—one small improvement at a time. You'll hear how his military insights apply directly to boardrooms, sales teams, pharma execs, and even Boilermakers. And why the top five reasons people leave organizations haven't changed in 25 years! This conversation is a masterclass in practical leadership. Because whether you're running a ship or a startup, the most powerful tool you have isn't command—it's connection. Three Key Takeaways: • Connection Drives Performance – Leaders who invest time in personally understanding their team members build trust, loyalty, and higher performance without needing more resources or authority. • Small Improvements Compound – A mindset of daily 1% improvements can lead to transformational change, even within rigid systems like the military. • Respect and Listening Are Retention Tools – People don't leave organizations for money alone; they leave when they don't feel valued, heard, or developed—making culture a strategic priority. If you found value in our conversation on leadership transformation and culture change, you'll want to check out our episode with Christian "Boo" Boucousis, a former Royal Australian Air Force fighter pilot turned CEO and thought leader. Boo shares how he applied military precision and adaptability to navigate the challenges of transitioning Afterburner, a global consultancy of elite military professionals, into the virtual realm during the pandemic. His insights on converting information into wisdom, engaging audiences across modalities, and leading with agility offer a compelling complement to our discussion on building high-performing teams through connection and ownership. Tune in to discover how discipline, curiosity, and emotional resonance can elevate your thought leadership to new heights.
