    The guys are pumped this morning after the home opener last night for the reigning Stanley Cup Champions, as they defeated the Chicago Blackhawks. We hear from the Championship head coach Paul Maurice, as he reflects on the banner going up and Aaron Ekblad. Are the Dolphins dumpster fires… Jaelan Phillips doesn't seem to think so. The Miami Heat face off against the Spurs today in their 3rd Preseason game, can Kel'el Ware put a masterclass up against Wemby again… Tobin sure hopes so. We lose Leroy to Cleveland and of course Tobin must let him know about it. Tobin and Brittney get into the Mixed Bag as we hear from; Bam Adebayo, Deon Sander, and Minkah Fitzpatrick. It is hour 3 and we get Leroy back, and we talk about the Heat and how Tobin's show poniness is left at the door when he goes to the Heat games. Tobin shares reports that the word coming from the Dolphins is that it doesn't look like we will be getting firings anytime soon. We play our favorite Wednesday game Rats Off A Ship! Cardinals head coach, Minkah on Kenneth Grant, and Lebron James. It came out yesterday that Odell Beckham Jr. will have to serve a 6 game suspension if/when he signs with a team for PED usage, this makes the gang spiral into funny moments of people denying they took any PEDs. Jerry Jones gets fined for giving the finger to Giants fans and the guys go on a hilarious rant. Then we talk about HOCKEY injuries … Those guys are insane.

    So Singapore then? Yes we got to see George Russell on the top step with a seemingly resurgent Max Verstappen taking 2nd, which only leaves 1 step on the podium for McLaren and this time round it was Lando Norris, but it was in a way that didn't exactly please Oscar and the other side of the garage.Congratulations to McLaren on clinching their 2nd consecutive World Constructor's Championship, but now the hard work really starts for them. They've got 2 drivers in contention for the driver's crown, but it seems like things aren't exactly cordial right now. After Forcing Oscar to let Lando past after a fudged pit stop in Monza and now not letting him by after the usual Sinagpore GP lap 1 "3 into 1 doesn't go" first corner.

    Tom Clarkson is joined in the Marina Bay paddock by F1 correspondent Lawrence Barretto and Australian motor racing journalist Greg Rust to reflect on the Singapore Grand Prix. McLaren have become World Champions for the second year in a row, but the big talking point was the opening lap contact between Lando Norris and Oscar Piastri. Will that incident change how their championship battle plays out in the final six races, especially now the team have wrapped up the Constructors' title?  George Russell converted a stunning pole into his second win of the season with a dominant performance from lights out. But as his wait for a new contract with Mercedes continues, why does Lawrence think Russell is in a similar situation to the one Carlos Sainz found himself in at Ferrari?  Behind George was Max Verstappen in P2. It's his fourth podium in a row and, given Red Bull's previous struggles in Singapore, does this result confirm they've finally turned a corner with their car? And if Max does significantly close the gap in the title fight this year, will McLaren favour one of their drivers over the other to ensure they win a first Drivers' Championship since 2008? Also on the agenda, the guys discuss another frustrating weekend for Ferrari, while celebrating impressive points finishes from Sainz, Fernando Alonso and Ollie Bearman.

    The October Rundown.This week, I did not plan for a guest. I have been wanting to do a genuine solo episode for a while now.To put it lightly, my junior cross-country season has not gone to plan. Today, I reflect upon my season so far, and the challenges and unexpected turns so far this fall.Historically in my running career, when I don't run well, I can usually pinpoint injury or illness as the culprit, causing either a decline in fitness or reduced performance. For the first time in my career, I am not running well, but cannot pinpoint a specific reason. Nothing is making sense right now. Sometimes, this sport doesn't make sense. Running is hard, but that's what makes it rewarding. You have to stay self-aware and keep believing and persevering through tough times. Because, ultimately, championship season is what truly matters. The greats in every walk of life face slumps; it's part of the process. That's what I have to remind myself during the struggle.Takeaways:Embrace the journey, even when it doesn't go as planned.Mental focus is key to overcoming physical challenges.Every athlete faces slumps; it's part of the process.Trust in your training and preparation.Learn from past experiences to improve future performances.The importance of self-awareness in sports.Championship season is what truly matters.Keep believing and persevering through tough times.Adjusting race strategies can lead to better outcomes.Running is hard, but that's what makes it rewarding.I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout!Shoutout to the team at the Battle of 509 who told me they are fans of the podcast.

    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.

    Unsurprisingly, McLaren win the 2025 Formula 1 Constructors' Championship, equaling Red Bull Racing's record of least races taken to win the teams' title. Surprisingly, George Russell scored his first win around the streets of Singapore - building on a classic pole lap from Saturday. He was unmatched on Sunday, as Max Verstappen, in second, couldn't charge further, and held back the "faster" McLaren of Lando Norris. The Ferrari duo struggled with brake wear issues with Lewis Hamilton picking up a post-race time penalty of 5 seconds. Fernando Alonso, who was furious with Hamilton's "track limit" violations had a feisty race with a slow pit stop. Carlos Sainz went from P18 to the points after Alexander Albon's team work helped keep Liam Lawson at bay.

    In this powerful episode, Kara sits down with Acacia Walker, one of the most accomplished coaches in women's lacrosse and the head coach of Team USA. Acacia shares the secret sauce behind building championship teams—from taking Boston College from never winning a national title to securing two championships and becoming the winningest program since 2017. This conversation is packed with leadership lessons, culture-building strategies, and mindset practices that apply far beyond the field. Acacia opens up about the power of unselfishness, the art of hard conversations, and how visualization shapes performance. She also shares her journey to becoming Team USA's head coach and how she balances coaching 40 athletes with raising three kids. Whether you're a leader, athlete, coach, or parent, this episode will inspire you to elevate your game in every area of life.Episode Topics:Building a Championship Culture: How Acacia transformed Boston College lacrosse from underdog to two-time national champion through culture over talentThe Power of Unselfishness: Why putting the team before personal goals creates unstoppable momentumLeadership & Hard Conversations: The importance of tackling difficult conversations instead of sweeping issues under the rugTeam USA Journey: The moment Acacia got the call to lead the U.S. Women's National Lacrosse Team to the 2026 World Championship in JapanVisualization & Mental Training: How mental rehearsal can be more powerful than physical practiceBalancing Work & Family: Merging two worlds—coaching 40 athletes while raising three kids with family supportThe Role of Mentorship: How legendary coach Cindy Timshaw shaped Acacia's coaching philosophy and approachHighlights:00:00 Building Championship Team Culture 05:41 Building Team Culture in Coaching 10:35 Building Team Culture and Unselfishness 15:27 Team Culture and Communication 19:08 Team USA Coaching Journey 23:56 Visualization and Mental Training 28:44 Balancing Family and Coaching 31:20 Team USA Follow-Up 32:32 Podcast episode ended Insights:Culture beats talent in tight games. When it's tied and a championship is on the line, the team with stronger culture and deeper connections wins.The "you before me" mentality creates exponential returns. When 30 players all focus on empowering each other, everyone gets elevated simultaneously.The in-between moments reveal true character. Great coaches pay attention to how athletes treat each other on the sidelines, after wins, after losses, and when no one's watching.Mental reps are as powerful as physical reps. Visualization done properly from a calm state creates neural pathways that translate to real performance.You can't build culture alone—your staff must embody it first. Everything trickles down from leadership, so alignment at the top is essential.Hard conversations are skills that require practice. Avoiding conflict weakens teams; diving in, breaking it down, and working through it strengthens bonds.Redemption can be a powerful motivator. Acacia's drive to win stemmed partly from not winning a championship while playing under her mentor at Maryland.Resources:Follow Team USA Lacrosse: Instagram @USALacrosseFollow Boston College Women's Lacrosse: Instagram @BCLacrosseJerry Lynch: Sports psychologist who works with...

    S1Ep250 Lessons in Championship Leadership with Ross Bernstein

    The Business Growth Show

    Championship leadership is rarely about talent alone. It's about consistency, values, and the willingness to do the unglamorous work—especially when no one is watching. For Ross Bernstein, a Hall of Fame speaker and best-selling author of nearly 50 sports books, that truth has been reinforced across thousands of interviews with the world's top athletes and coaches. The most successful leaders, whether in sports or business, operate by a code—one built on trust, culture, and an unwavering commitment to doing things the right way. Bernstein's work focuses on decoding what separates winning teams from the rest. His research draws not only from statistical trends, but from raw, behind-the-scenes conversations inside locker rooms, press boxes, and dugouts. Championship leadership, he explains, isn't about flash or status. It's built on daily habits, strong relationships, and a team-first mentality that fuels performance over the long haul. Integrity is a recurring theme in Bernstein's message. Drawing parallels between sports and business, he emphasizes that true leaders are defined by how they win—not just whether they win. “Anyone can cheat,” he points out. “But being a champion is about doing things the right way, even when it would be easier not to.” That distinction between gamesmanship and character is where trust is built, and where long-term success takes root. In high-performing teams, the culture often mirrors that of the locker room. There's a shared commitment, a sense of personal responsibility, and an understanding that no one wins alone. Whether it's a quarterback investing in private coaching to stay competitive well into his 40s or a top-producing business executive building meaningful client relationships beyond the sales pitch, the edge comes from discipline, preparation, and a relentless work ethic. Bernstein often points to examples like Tom Brady—not because of his accolades, but because of the less visible effort that fueled them. While most people see the highlight reels, they don't see the nutritionists, neurologists, and sleep coaches behind the scenes. That level of commitment is what championship leadership requires: doing the work that others won't, without cutting corners, and without needing applause. In the business world, the lesson is the same. Top performers don't simply show up when it's convenient. They stay ahead by consistently executing the fundamentals. They invest in their teams. They show up with curiosity and ask questions. They visit their clients' operations in person. And perhaps most importantly, they build relationships that aren't transactional—they're built on trust and value. For leaders aiming to build stronger cultures, Bernstein encourages shifting the mindset from hiring the “best” people to hiring the right people. He recalls how legendary coach Pat Summitt built her championship legacy not by recruiting the top-ranked players, but by finding those who shared her values, work ethic, and team-first mentality. It's a powerful reminder that championship leadership begins with alignment—not just with skills, but with culture, attitude, and mission. Trust, according to Bernstein, isn't given. It's earned through behavior, consistency, and shared experience. It also requires a willingness to teach, not just manage. He recalls how Summitt saw herself more as a teacher than a coach—a subtle but powerful shift that cultivated loyalty, performance, and team cohesion. The idea that “will beats skill” echoes throughout Bernstein's work. While some athletes are born with undeniable gifts, most reach the top through effort, sacrifice, and resilience. It's the same for business leaders. Talent might open the door, but championship leadership is what keeps it open—and expands the path for others. Ultimately, leadership isn't about being the loudest voice in the room or the name at the top of the org chart. It's about showing up every day, doing the work, and holding yourself to a higher standard. Bernstein's insights serve as a reminder that greatness leaves clues—and that those clues are often hidden in plain sight. Watch the full episode on YouTube.

     Despite an impressive chess résumé as one of the U.S.'s top women players, Tatev Abrahamyan has had moments when she questioned whether it was all worth it. After a prolonged slump, she not only considered giving up on ever earning the International Master title, but she nearly quit competitive chess altogether. Fortunately, Tatev persevered. Earlier this year, she unexpectedly finished second in the Woman's American Cup, and then in August, she delivered a standout result that earned her the International Master title at age 37 — more than 10 years after achieving her final required norm!  Remarkably, Tatev's performance was so strong that she also secured her first GM norm. In our conversation, Tatev reflects on: Why a timely vote of confidence from a mentor propelled her toward a $30,000 prize Opening advice and the enduring value of endgame studies What she has learned from this roller-coaster journey — and what she advises others facing slumps Tatev's story is both candid and inspiring, and I look forward to following her next chapter at the 2025 U.S. Women's Championship and beyond. 0:00- Thanks to our sponsors Chessable.com: Check out Tatev's courses here-  and if you sign up for Chessable Pro, be sure to use this link: https://www.chessable.com/pro/?utm_source=affiliate&utm_medium=benjohnson&utm_campaign=pro 0:02- Late last year, after a slump, Tatev was “despondent” with her chess?
