For way too long, toxic masculinity has run rife. Men have been taught to be tough, not to cry, don't show emotions and all the other damaging rhetoric. They've also been subjected to abuse and put downs for showing signs of kindness and warmth. This has to stop. The four men I talk about in this episode are indeed putting a stop to the harmful narrative that causes many men to self-loath and in some cases, take their own life. Mark MacManus, Matt Ferguson, Leigh McDonald and Steven Baker aren't afraid to cry, and are actively sharing their stories in an effort to support men and others to ask for help and believe in themselves. Essentially they want people to know they are ok just the way they are.Socials:The Restoration Project https://www.facebook.com/restorationgippsland/Build Grit with Steven Bakerhttps://www.facebook.com/buildGRIThttps://www.buildgrit.com.au/Matthew Fergusonhttps://www.instagram.com/mattyferg21/?hl=enChronic Traumatic EncephalopathyAccording to the Boston University CTE Center, Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE) is a degenerative brain disease found in athletes, military veterans, and others with a history of repetitive brain trauma. CTE is caused in part by repeated traumatic brain injuries, which include concussions and nonconcussive impacts.Source: Concussion Legacy Foundation

The Boston University CTE Center released a new study on Monday (Aug. 28) that found chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE) in more than 40% of youth, high school, and college athletes — mainly football players — who suffered repeated head impact from contact sports and died before turning 30 years of age. So today's podcast will break down the study's findings and serve as an overview of the monetary investments professional sports leagues are making into research to make their sports safer. Enjoy!

It is, of course, Super Bowl week. With that in mind...researchers at Boston University say they've found the degenerative brain condition known as CTE in nearly 92% of former NFL players they have studied so far. It's part of their on-going research.  Dr. Ann McKee is Director of the Boston University CTE Center and talked about this on WCBS 880's Afternoon Roundup.

Bryce Harper has three pins in his left thumb, a cast on his left hand and an unyielding belief that he will return from injury this season to try to lead the Philadelphia Phillies to their first playoff appearance in 11 years. Since Bryce Harper went down with a broken thumb on June 25, J.T Realmuto is hitting .320/.379/.680 with a 182 wRC+. He has driven in seven runs in seven games. If you were wondering about the calendar's impact on Kyle Schwarber, well, it looks like he's just fine. After an absurd June in which “June Schwarber” was named NL Player of the Month, he began July by going just 2-for-13 with no extra-base hits. On Tuesday night, he took care of the temporary power outage right away by swatting his third leadoff homer of the season, a 412-foot shot that came off his bat at 108.3 mph The Cleveland Browns and Carolina Panthers have agreed to a trade that sends Baker Mayfield to Carolina in exchange for a 2024 conditional fifth-round pick (which can become a fourth-round selection), NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport and NFL Network's Tom Pelissero reported Wednesday. The deal is pending a physical. Carolina later announced the acquisition. Former Denver Broncos great Demaryius Thomas, who died last December at 33, less than six months after he announced his retirement from professional football, suffered from chronic traumatic encephalopathy. According to a July 5 announcement from the Concussion Legacy Foundation and the Boston University CTE Center. Researchers who examined Thomas's brain, which was donated by his family, diagnosed him with stage 2 CTE.

The co-founder of the Boston University CTE Center and former WWE Superstar joins Pat and Aaron from Radio Row at Super Bowl LII

Chris Nowinski, Ph.D. is co-founder and CEO of the Concussion Legacy Foundation. He is also co-founder of the Boston University CTE Center and the VA-BU-CLF Brain Bank, a collaboration with Boston University and the US Department of Veterans Affairs, where he currently serves as the outreach, recruitment, education, and public policy leader. Chris has quite a story to tell. He was an elite athlete in high school, but that certainly was not his only identity. He excelled in the classroom, theater, and also participated in academic competitions.  Excelling in football and school led him to Harvard University where he was an All-Ivy defensive tackle. After college, he tried out and ended up breaking through as a professional wrestler with WWE. It was during his time at the WWE where he experienced a concussion that ended his wrestling career. That concussion sparked his journey into finding out more about concussions and learning everything he could about them. Chris is interested in psychology, sociology, and neurology, and how all three  impact human life. He's a risk taker and purpose-driven person, who believes in hard science and data to make decisions. It’s clear that his curiosity and persistence has helped him change how we view concussions. For that, I know I am grateful for all of the work that he has done and continues to do. You can read Chris' book Head Games and he's active on social media: Twitter: @ChrisNowinski1 @ConcussionLF Facebook: @nowinski.christopher @ConcussionFoundation Instagram: @christophernowinski @concussionfoundation You can also check out the work that Chris and his colleagues are doing at the ConcussionFoundation. Thanks to Chris for coming on the show and hope everyone is now a little bit more informed as a result of this conversation.
