New guest and Assistant Coach Will Weiss joins the Bench for this Tako-hosted game. In this episode, we wish we were rich, we accidentally give Missing Link hits to the other team, we reminisce about Craig James killing five hookers, and invent Florida Marlins shortstops that somehow played for the 1975 Red Sox. But above all, we practice integrity, because that's what the Benchwarmers Trivia Podcast is all about. #IRS #beaniebabies #jackmorris #jeopardy #canadianhorse #jewishsportsquarterly https://dobosdelights.com/ Promo Code: CheckYourTaint https://www.patreon.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.facebook.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.twitter.com/benchwarmerstp https://www.instagram.com/benchwarmerstp/ https://www.teepublic.com/stores/benchwarmers-trivia-podcast
Ep 177 - One World in a New World Apocalyptic Chat Clips Join Zen Benefiel in this thought-provoking series, "Awakening Moments," where he leads apocalyptic chats that challenge conventional wisdom and offers a roadmap to evolving leadership through regenerative practices and cosmic wisdom. Gain cosmic wisdom and discover a roadmap to regenerative and evolving leadership. Through thought-provoking discussions, clips of over 20 conversations, Zen engages guests to share their insights on self-discovery, accountability, and the journey towards a sustainable, harmonious world. Tune in and take part in this transformative exploration of human potential and unity. We are all relatives; we all come from the same Source. Whether we agree on the name or not, we're one planet, one people. This is our opportunity to step up and demonstrate intelligence in unity. Today, science has bridged the gap with spirituality, and what quantum physics, quantum mechanics, and Quantum Sciences are beginning to reveal is what Vedantic philosophy has held all along: we are all energy, emanating from the same Source. Each of us is a divine thread, incarnate, with the capacity to be gods and goddesses through the Consciousness we embody. We face challenges in understanding our purpose, often constrained by societal and organizational structures, whether corporate or religious. With a vision of “One World,” we can share the responsibility that brings each of us to a level of personal accountability. Rather than calling this a New Age, we might better call it the “Age of Accountability”—a time to be responsible for what we do and how we act. Welcome to "One World in a New World," where ambition meets innovation in co-creating a new normal. Here, we explore the “thoughtmosphere,” embark on a transformative journey of self-discovery, and embrace harmony—with ourselves, with others, and with Mother Earth. Zen Benefiel skillfully guides these conversations, revealing personal journeys and perspectives through enlightening “apocalyptic chats,” inspiring listeners to seek knowledge and wisdom in their own lives. Join us in this transformative journey as we delve into the depths of the human experience, exploring the inner and outer realities and bridging them through conscious understanding.

In the 1980s SMU football looked to be almost inevitable. With a No. 2 ranking and a constant stream of top recruits, like Eric Dickerson and Craig James, they looked to be headed to a national title of their own. But they also had something else, a well-documented payroll for their players. This resulted in the NCAA's so-called “death penalty” ruling for the program and sent SMU down a 40-year path of obscurity. But now, with the NIL era in full swing and armed with a stable of billionaire boosters, SMU football is jumping headfirst into a new conference with thoughts of the college football playoff on their mind. Dave Wilson joins us from Texas to break down the Mustang's path from NCAA pariah to modern-day redemption. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

One World in a New World with Craig James, Co Founder Catalyst Strategies LLC Welcome to our channel, a sanctuary for explorers of depth, connection, and transformative growth. Today, we're embarking on a thought-provoking journey, understanding how 'empathic resonance' becomes our north star in a world navigating through the chaos towards deeper connection. We'll uncover how narratives reveal profound truths about our struggles and intrinsic need for empathy. We're weaving together insights from quantum physics, the timeless wisdom of indigenous philosophies, and the transformative power of empathy, all to unveil how we can harmoniously bridge our inner experiences with our external realities. So, sit back, invite your intuition to the forefront, and open your heart to the frequencies we often sense but rarely fully acknowledge. It's time to embrace the power within and around us, shaping a future resonant with empathy, healing, and genuine human connection. Let's begin this journey together. In this profound exploration with Craig James, Co-Founder of Catalyst Strategies LLC, we delve into the necessity of empathic resonance in a world emerging from chaos and seeking order. Reflecting on lessons from quantum thinking, indigenous wisdom, and transformative realizations presented in cinema, like the poignant narrative of "Good Will Hunting," we understand that our collective healing hinges on embracing empathy and acknowledging our shared human experience. Join us as we discuss how the convergence of intuition, emotion, and rationality guides us in bridging our inner and outer worlds, reminding us that we're not just solitary beings but interconnected points of energy within a larger, responsive cosmos. This journey is one of recognizing the power of "it's not your fault," an invitation to self-compassion amidst a society in tumult, and a call to co-create a more empathic, conscious, and connected human narrative.

It's been a while since it's been just me and the microphone.Today's episode is inspired by the idea that “everybody's right.”Maybe it's a generational thing I notice from others— people wanting to know "the answer." Making everything "a debate." What's the "correct" answer? What is the "right way" to be?What if everybody's right?In fact, they are.And the experience you're having is simply your experience. To know that, to trust it, is part of "the way" to living a life more reasonably.Through my journey of recovery (since 2018, sober since Christmas, 2019) I began exploring “What's the best way to live?”I am brought back to the Tao more than anything else, the “way” to live a harmonious life. The Tao emphasizes simplicity and effortless action. Whenever we apply force, there will be a counterforce. When things are “right,” others, by default become “wrong.” When we oppress, people begin to rebel. This might go down in history as “the episode where Andee suggests we let everyone out of prison.”Funny… I think it seems reasonable. Maybe after this episode, you will too.Have a listen if you're in the mood for some hot air.Also, thanks to Craig James for your constant inspiration. You keep me feeling, questioning, wondering….

On the latest episode of the Rex Chapman Show with Josh Hopkins, the guys are joined by Pro Football Hall of Fame Running Back Eric Dickerson. There's so much Eric has accomplished both on and off the field, that gave him the inspiration for him to write "Watch My Smoke." Still living in Los Angeles, Eric is just one of the many Rams fans celebrating the Super Bowl Championship. 7:00 - Josh is losing his mind, sitting down with his two all-time idols: Rex Chapman and Eric Dickerson. You even get the tour of his childhood bedroom, covered in their posters. 9:00 - Josh shows off his poster collection, including Rex Chapman and Eric Dickerson 13:00 - Going back to Eric's childhood, he found out his identity not only on the football field, but he also found out he was adopted. How did those two moments in his life mold him into the man he would become? 15:00 - Eric remembers signing up for football, and in his first game he scored 6 Touchdowns. He was hooked on football ever since. 21:00 - It's his rookie season, and Eric has his "Welcome to the NFL Moment." Josh remembers watching one of the iconic Eric Dickerson touchdowns when he was 12 years old. 24:30 - As the Number 1 player in the country coming out of high school in 1979, his recruitment story is unlike anything you've ever heard before. He wanted to go to Oklahoma, but as a Texas boy, he decided to stay closer to home, ultimately going to SMU. 30:00 - How Eric Dickerson ended up at SMU, after pulling his commitment from Texas A&M (his mom convincing him to go to SMU) 33:00 - The famed gold Trans A&M, and how the story of that car followed Eric for the last 40 years. 38:00 - It took decades for SMU to finally welcome back Eric Dickerson and Craig James after the school received the death penalty. While it was great to be invited back, Eric still wonders why it took so long. 40:30 - Looking back on his own experience in college, Eric says Name Image and Likeness was a long time coming, and the student athletes deserve to be given some kind of compensation beyond the scholarship for what they put into their programs. 45:00 - The biggest impact NIL can provide for student athletes is giving them the means to take care of themselves and provide financial literacy. Eric and Rex both recall their first paycheck and wondering why they were losing money to taxes. 49:00 - Was going to the pros easy for Eric? He joined the Rams and immediately began setting rushing records that still haven't been broken. 51:00 - When Eric first recognized he was in the NFL, and what that felt like being in a professional football game. 58:00 - The NFL still has a number of great running backs, but Eric explains why no one will ever break his single-season rushing record. 1:01:00 - Coming off the Super Bowl Championship for the LA Rams, Eric is thrilled with how they've come together, and how important the title was for the city. Bottom line, he just wants his team to win. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Craig James is a friend of Joe De Sena (founder and CEO of Spartan Race), and they are talking about what almost everyones talking about - remote work vs in person work. You probably know Joe's take, but what do the studies say? What do professionals in the business of work spaces say? Craig is the founder of DWELLoptimal. The idea is that extended stay business travelers need to be productive while on the road. Craig spent 20 years on Wall Street and 8 years in Hong Kong. He and Joe will talk about the pros and cons of remote vs in person work from both the worker and the employer side, AND why no matter where you work you need to make time for burpees.

This week on Legally Speaking with Michael Mulligan:Section 530 of the Criminal Code provides a right to a trial in either English or French. It also requires a judge or justice “before whom an accused first appears” to inform accused people of this right. If someone requests a trial in French or English no later than the time set for their trial, it is mandatory that this be provided. If a request is made later, a judge has discretion, but this is required to be exercised in a permissive way. If two or more people are being tried together, they might make elections concerning the official language that they wished to use. In such a case, a bilingual judge or jury would requried. In a BC Court of Appeal case discussed on the show, a bilingual man, whose first language was French, sought a new trial, after being convicted, because he wasn't informed of his right to have a trial in French. In dismissing his appeal, the Court of Appeal pointed to several factors. The man was bilingual and had no apparent difficulty communicating in English that could have resulted in a need for a judge to make further inquiries concerning the language of the trial. The man had a lawyer assisting him and no issue concerning the language of the trial was raised prior to the appeal. The paperwork to attend court the man had been given following his arrest included notice of the right to have a trial in French or English, printed in French and English. At the first court appearance, where someone should be informed of their right to trial in English or French, the accused man was not present as he had retained a lawyer to appear for him. The Court of Appeal decision does suggest that, if the preference for a trial in French had been raised prior to the conviction and appeal, there may well have been a different outcome. Also, on the show, the reasons for judgment in the case of Craig James, the former Clerk of the Legislative Assembly of British Columbia are discussed. Mr. James was charged with several counts of fraud and breach of trust relating to matters including the payment of a “long service” or “retirement allowance” of $257,988, the purchase and use of a log splitter and trailer, as well as numerous other purchases including clothing.Mr. James was found not guilty of all the charges he was facing, with the exception of fraud under $5,000 relating to the purchase of two suits, a tie, and a dress shirt. While the judge found that Mr. James was likely not entitled to the $257,988 he had paid to himself, he had recieved an opinion from a senior lawyer that suggested he might have been entitled to the money. As a result it wasn't possible to conclude beyond a reasonable doubt that there had been fraud or breach of trust. The history of the “long service” or “retirement allowance” was that prior to Mr. James taking over as Clerk, the people who served as “table officers” in the legislature had been lawyers in private practice who did this work but did not receive pension, vacation, or other benefits paid to regular government employees. The allowance was intended to make up for this when they retired. Mr. James did receive the pension, vacation, and other benefits for the entire period of his employment, however, the policy with respect to the allowance was still in place. The conviction relating to the suits, tie and dress shirt was because Mr. James mischaracterized these expenses to make them look like they related to the uniform he would wear in the legislature. For example, he wrote “tabs” on the receipt for the tie. Follow this link for the cases discussed and a transcript of the show.
Eric Dickerson was the nation's top prospect on National Signing Day in 1979, and the future NFL Hall of Fame running back was highly recruited by every major program across the country. Abiding by his mother's wishes, Dickerson chose to remain close to home, attending Southern Methodist University in Dallas. There were many reasons SMU appealed to Dickerson. First of all, as portrayed in the hit television series of the time period, Dallas was a place where things were happening. Second, SMU played their home games in Texas Stadium, sharing the home locker room with the Dallas Cowboys. Finally, the decal of a galloping pony amid a red, white, and blue uniform gave SMU the "cool" factor Dickerson was looking for. But things weren't perfect as a Mustang. Recruited alongside Dickerson was Craig James, another running back from the Houston area. For the next four years, Dickerson and James shared the SMU backfield, each receiving a 50/50 split of the offensive running game. Dickerson liked James, but hated splitting carries with him. It wasn't until he got to the NFL that he appreciated how much sharing the workload saved his body physically. The leadership lesson from this example is simple: we ALL have a role to play within our organization. Listen to Week 14's Motivation Monday to learn more and identify how YOUR role impacts the team's performance.
100. In Architecting the Perfect Hybrid Work Environment, Craig James, founder of DWELLOptimal, joins host William Glass to discuss how to best blend work and life in physical spaces. Craig shares how his experience working on Wall Street and in Hong Kong taught him the importance of beautiful, functional living spaces. Traveling all of the time and working out of hotels or corporate apartments didn't create the environment he needed to work effectively while on the road. Leaving Wall Street behind him, Craig set out to build a company that solves this challenge of functional and beautiful living spaces for companies and workers. The need for DWELLOptimal's solution has only grown in importance with the transition to hybrid work following COVID.
