Last week, Jaxson Dart went viral for scoring a perfect & unprecedented 100 SPS score. Anthony interviews Brainy Ballers -- the creator of the SPS -- Star-Predictor Score is a test that simulates the potential score of players, trying to predict their success when entering the NFL, using 15 distinct metrics from various sources.

Patrick gave you a glimpse into the childhood and early years of our brand-new Holy Father, Pope Leo XIV (Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost), with the kind of reverent curiosity you'd expect when an altar boy from the South Side becomes the Vicar of Christ. You can listen to his entire hour of commentary about Pope Leo XIV here. Hour 2 is available to listen here. Hour 3 is here. Humble Beginnings in the Windy City Born on September 14, 1955, in Dolton, Illinois (a suburb of Chicago), little Robert Prevost was raised in a faithful Catholic home. His dad, Louis Marius Prevost, was of French-Italian descent and served in the U.S. Navy during WWII. His mom, Mildred Martínez, was a Spanish-Creole librarian with deep Louisiana roots. He grew up going to St. Mary of the Assumption parish, where he served as an altar boy. So yes, he literally started out on the altar... just not quite at the Vatican level yet. He has two brothers, Louis Martin and John Joseph. A Brainy & Prayerful Path Young Robert was no slouch in school either; he studied math at Villanova, graduating in 1977. God had bigger plans. He entered the Order of St. Augustine in 1978, professed vows in 1981, and was ordained a priest in 1982. He studied theology in Chicago and canon law in Rome, eventually earning his doctorate from the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas (Angelicum). From Peru to the Pontificate This wasn’t a man who just sat around in chancery offices. He served as a missionary priest in Peru, taught at seminaries, worked in diocesan offices, and even led the global Augustinian order as Prior General, twice. Eventually, he was appointed a bishop in Peru, received dual citizenship, and climbed the Vatican ranks: prefect of the Dicastery for Bishops and president of the Pontifical Commission for Latin America. If you wanted to become a bishop under Pope Francis? You probably went through his office. Cardinal, then…Pope! In 2023, he was made a cardinal, and by early 2025, elevated to Cardinal Bishop: one of the highest honors in the Church. Just a few months later, he appeared on the balcony of St. Peter’s Basilica, smiling (and maybe a bit stunned), as the world heard those famous words: “Habemus Papam!”: We have a Pope! First Words as Pope Patrick shared audio from Pope Leo’s first Mass, where he began his homily in English before switching to Italian. His opening line was a quote from the Psalms: “I will sing a new song to the Lord, for He has done marvels... not just with me, but with all of us, my brother Cardinals.” It was humble, sincere, and straight from the heart. Fun Fact Corner: There's a photo of him at a Chicago World Series game dressed incognito, talking on a cell phone: captioned: “Here’s the Pope at the World Series.” Instant classic. His childhood home was reportedly listed for $199K the day before the conclave. His Creole roots and international experiences give him a beautiful cultural depth: a bridge between continents, languages, and peoples. From altar boy in Dolton to Peter’s successor: it’s a story only God could write.

In this episode, we're diving into a trio of "the"-titled features, starting with our Top 5 Definite Articles in film and TV, followed by a look at Steven Spielberg's semi-autobiographical drama The Fabelmans, and rounding off with the delightful antics of The Smurfs.Top 5 Definite Articles in Film and TV:The Godfather (1972) - A cinematic masterpiece that redefined the crime genre and gave us one of the most iconic characters in film history, Don Vito Corleone.The Dark Knight (2008) - Christopher Nolan's gritty take on Gotham's hero brought depth, realism, and a legendary performance from Heath Ledger as the Joker.The Office (2005-2013) - A sitcom that revolutionized mockumentary-style comedy and introduced the world to Michael Scott's awkward brilliance.The Thing (1982) - John Carpenter's chilling horror-thriller remains a benchmark for practical effects and paranoia-driven storytelling.The Matrix (1999) - A sci-fi classic that questioned reality and revolutionized action choreography with its "bullet time" visuals.Main Feature: The Fabelmans (2022) Directed by Steven Spielberg, The Fabelmans is a semi-autobiographical film that reflects on the legendary filmmaker's own life, capturing the wonder, complexity, and challenges of growing up in a family where art and reality often intersect. Gabriel LaBelle stars as Sammy Fabelman, a young boy enchanted by the power of cinema, with Michelle Williams and Paul Dano portraying his loving but imperfect parents.Set in the 1950s and 60s, the film chronicles Sammy's discovery of filmmaking and his growing passion amidst family tensions and personal dilemmas. Spielberg crafts a deeply personal story that explores how art can be an escape, a confrontation, and a way of understanding the world. With a blend of nostalgia and emotional depth, The Fabelmans showcases the director's love for the medium while delving into the challenges of family life. It's a celebration of creativity, dreamers, and the power of storytelling.The Smurfs For the little ones (and the young at heart), The Smurfs bring a mix of charm, humour, and life lessons. Originally created by Belgian cartoonist Peyo, the tiny blue characters have enchanted audiences for generations. The 1980s animated series and subsequent films follow Papa Smurf, Smurfette, Brainy, and their fellow Smurfs as they navigate the magical forest, often thwarting the evil plans of the bumbling wizard Gargamel and his cat Azrael.These pint-sized adventurers deliver plenty of laughs, but the stories often come with underlying messages about cooperation, kindness, and problem-solving. Whether through the classic cartoon or recent movies, The Smurfs remain a colorful and fun escape.This episode dives deep into the importance of the small things—whether it's a single word that gives a title its iconic flair, a passion for filmmaking that shapes a life, or little blue creatures teaching big lessons. Stay tuned for a blend of reflection, nostalgia, andWe love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it.

Spoke with Dr. Randy Blakely, Exec Dir FAU Stiles Nicholson Brain Institute and Sir John Hardy, Ph.D., University College London.  Professor Hardy is a leading geneticist for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's research.  He's one of the guest lecturers participating in FAU's free Brainy Days series. His study has identified the gene in families called the amyloid precursor protein (APP), which led to his theory, the amyloid cascade hypothesis.  “The next job that we have to do in Alzheimer's disease is to get better at predicting the disease earlier. Identifying the people that are going to develop dementia, or detecting the diseases that cause it at their earliest stages will make a huge difference. It will help ensure that future treatments will be more effective. It's going to be tough to do it, but that's one of the next challenges."  FAU offers a variety of free community events and educational programs.Brainy Days is sponsored by Palm Health Foundation.

In this week's episode, both of our storytellers explore what happens when belief systems collide—and how science and empathy can help bridge the divide. Part 1: Neuroscientist Lauren Vetere is excited to see if real life will mimic science at an interfaith event. Part 2: Growing up as a devout Jew, Fred Gould's relationship with God is shaken by existential philosophy and science. Lauren Vetere is a neuroscientist, writer, and science communicator based in NYC. She recently received her PhD in Neuroscience from Mount Sinai, where she studied how different parts of the brain communicate to make memories, and how that communication is disrupted in epilepsy and Alzheimer's disease. Outside of the lab, she works to make science accessible through writing, community outreach, and art. Lauren serves as a council member and blog writer for BraiNY, a NYC-based neuroscience outreach group. In 2023, she co-created the winning science-inspired short film for Symbiosis, a competition where scientists and filmmakers are paired to make short films in one week. She then returned as the coordinator for the 2024 Symbiosis competition. In her free time, you can find Lauren writing, baking, or listening to sci-fi and fantasy audiobooks in central park. Fred Gould graduated from Jamaica HS in NYC and received his BS in biology from Queens College of the City University of New York.  He went on to a PhD program in ecology and evolutionary biology at the State University of NY at Stony Brook. He moved to North Carolina for a postdoc and then a job on the faculty of NC State University. Gould is now the executive director of the NC State Genetics and Genomics Academy and is co-director of the Genetic Engineering and Society Center. He conducts research on the application of evolutionary biology and population genetics to enable sustainable use of insect resistant crops and genetically engineered agricultural pests. He also does research aimed at development of strategies for engineering insect vectors of human pathogens to decrease disease. Most of Gould's current teaching focuses on technical and societal issues related to genomics and genetic engineering. He also teaches lectures within a course on Darwinism and Christianity. Gould is a fellow of the Entomological Society of America and of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In 2011, he was elected to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
