This week on Everybody in the Pool, we couldn't let Earth Month pass without one last conversation about consumer action and devices—and this week, we're re-airing a conversation from someone who's an expert at designing things that people want to buy. Matt Rogers is the co-founder of Mill, a kitchen appliance that turns food waste into dried, odorless grounds that consumers drop in the mail and that get upcycled into chicken feed. And Matt just happens to have also co-founded a little company called Nest, which has been a powerful driver of energy efficiency. He and Molly talk about how food waste is the unexpected giant emitter that requires major behavior change, and sometimes, a sexy gadget is just what you need to make that change.RESOURCES & LINKSMillMill vs Lomi via Architectural DigestAll episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member and get an ad-free version of the podcast: https://plus.acast.com/s/everybody-in-the-poolPlease subscribe and tell your friends about Everybody in the Pool!

“If I just focus on competing, it's turned out to be really fun and turned out to work in my favor each time. That's been the mindset: Let's just race, focus on competing, and not really worry about the clock. That's a lot of how I approached Boston.”After finishing one spot off of the Team USA squads in the marathon and the 10,000m for the Olympics and the half marathon for the World Road Running Championships, Jess McLain has made it a habit of being so close, yet just off of these national teams.But on Patriots Day in Boston, she kicked it open, running a smart, gutsy race that saw her surge through the Newton Hills strategically with Emma Bates and Sara Hall chasing a lead pack and then closing in 5:15 seconds for the final mile. Jess cemented her place as one of the top contenders in American distance running.In today's conversation, we get into what changed with this particular marathon build, from training under coach David Roche to how she's getting used to these major marathon scenes. We talk a lot about the importance of carbs and how that's also been a game changer for her as well as why her drive to compete instead of focusing on times works so well. With big goals on the horizon and the 2028 Olympic cycle now underway, Jess McClain might just be getting started and really coming into her own as a marathoner.Hosts: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Jess McClain | @jesstonn on InstagramSUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

Wrapping up Earth Month, we're revisiting Jann's conversation with Ziya Tong and her incredible work on the documentary Plastic People. In case you're not familiar, she is an award-winning author and broadcaster, best known for her work with Discovery's flagship science show, Daily Planet, and NOVA ScienceNow on PBS. She is the author of the best-selling book The Reality Bubble, which was shortlisted for Canada's most prestigious non-fiction literary prize, and won the Lane Anderson Award for best science writing. Ziya served as the Vice Chair of WWF Canada and currently serves as a trustee of WWF International. Ziya co-directed a new documentary called Plastic People: The Hidden Crisis of Microplastics with Ben Addelman, and she stars alongside Executive Producer Rick Smith. Jann, Caitlin and Ziya discuss the dangers of microplastics in our bodies and the environment. Ziya shares that microplastics are found everywhere, including in our blood, placenta, and even the human brain. They discuss the impacts to our health such as increased risk of stroke, heart attack, and cancer. Ziya emphasizes the need for individual and collective action to reduce plastic consumption and advocates for joining organizations that are working towards solving the plastics crisis. Ziya and her team are still raising money for the documentary's impact campaign and they plan to release a podcast to delve deeper into the dark secrets and stories of the plastics industry.

“I just like being an underdog. It has this feeling that almost reduces the pressure… I'm not going to change anything, but I'm going to try and go out there and show everyone that I can do it. That it's possible.”In a race built on tradition, it takes something truly special to rewrite history, and that's exactly what Sharon Lokedi delivered at the 2025 Boston Marathon. Facing off once again with Hellen Obiri, the two-time defending champion and the Olympic bronze medalist, Lokedi flipped the script. When Obiri made a move with about one mile to go, Sharon just didn't hang on; she countered with a decisive surge of her own, and the result was a 2:17:22 victory – the fastest Boston Marathon ever run by a woman, smashing the old course record by more than 2.5 minutes. It was a win built on boldness.Lokedi stayed composed through an aggressive early pace, answered every challenge and move along the way, and delivered a ferocious negative split. In the process, she claimed her place in history not just as a champion, but as a new standard bearer for women's marathoning in Boston.Today, Sharon joins me to talk about the race that had her questioning the pace the whole entire way, her rivalry with Hellen Obiri, and how belief, guts, and a little bit of joy carried her all the way to the finish line into the arms of her mother on Boylston Street.Hosts: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Sharon Lokedi | @shazrine on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

“When you're in that momentum phase, every week is just exciting. You look forward to the next workout because you're just curious – I did well last week, let's see how well I can do this week. It's just fun to see everything come together at the right time. That's what Boston was. I was just excited because I knew how much fitness I had gained in the last month. It was really just going out there and seeing what I had.”Sometimes the best breakthroughs don't come after a perfect buildup — they come from trusting your gut, leaning into the tough days and racing fearlessly when it matters most. That's exactly what Annie Frisbie did at the 2025 Boston Marathon.Running through a rocky buildup that started with an upper hamstring tear, Annie put herself right in the mix early on, going out aggressively with the lead pack and refusing to back down when the race got tough. She crossed the line in 2:23:21, nearly a three-minute personal best and the eighth-fastest Boston finish ever by an American woman.It's a huge step forward for the Minnesota Distance Elite athlete, who first turned heads with a 2:26 debut at the 2021 New York City Marathon and has steadily — and quietly — been building toward a moment like this ever since.Today, Annie joins me to talk about the full story behind her Boston breakthrough — the injury recovery, the confidence building, the decision to go with the leaders early — and why this is just the beginning.Hosts: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Annie Frisbie | @anniefrisb3 on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

Chris Chavez and Preet Majithia are back on the mic to break down one of the biggest weekends in recent marathon history.They dive into Sabastian Sawe's breathtaking 2:02:27 victory at the 2025 London Marathon — including his devastating move at 30K, and what this win means for the marathon World #1 debate.On the women's side, Tigst Assefa delivered a gutsy performance to break the women's-only world record in 2:15:50, securing a massive payday and maybe reminding us all that she could be the very best women's marathoner in the world.The guys also discuss Jacob Kiplimo's impressive marathon debut, Eliud Kipchoge's graceful approach to this new chapter of his career and other key performances.We also unpack the Diamond League opener in Xiamen, China— including Karsten Warholm's world best over 300m hurdles and Faith Kipyegon's near-world record run.We'll record a preview of Grand Slam Track: Miami later this week on-site from Florida.SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

As you’ll hear in this discussion, it’s Earth Month, and we couldn’t not have an episode about sustainability efforts within travel. Here, host Rebecca Tobin speaks with Paula Vlammings, the chief impact officer of nonprofit Tourism Cares, and Travel Weekly hospitality editor Christina Jekski about some of the hot topics of 2025. Topics we cover: Solutions to overtourism; why travelers don’t want to pay more for green travel initiatives; and whether recent shifts in U.S. policy will have an impact on sustainability efforts. This episode was recorded April 24 and was edited for length and clarity.

“Whether it's true or not, that's what I've got to believe. That's the faith I've got to have moving forward. Regardless of what other people say, or what other people think, there is power in truth and being honest with myself. There's got to be faith and there's got to be belief that I not only can close that gap, but that I am in that tier and I can compete with the best.”My guest for today's episode is Clayton Young. While Conner Mantz's 2:05 may have stolen the headlines, Clayton Young once again proved why he belongs in any conversation about the best marathoners in America. On a competitive day in Boston, he ran 2:0:7:04 – nearly a full minute personal best to finish seventh overall, tying his highest ever finish at a World Marathon Major. He did it despite a calf cramp at mile 20 and on an up and down lead up that included some frustrating half marathon results.But that's the kind of thing about Clayton's success, quiet consistency, big stage composure, and a resilience that keeps him right alongside the best, including his training partner and Olympic teammate, Conner Mantz. This Boston result marks their fourth straight marathon finishing as the top two Americans in every field, and every time Clayton Young shows up.In this conversation, we get into the Boston Marathon as it unfolded, what was actually going through his head when that mile 20 move got made, when that cramp hit, and why he's so good at staying in the mix.Hosts: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Clayton Young | @_clayton_young_ on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

This week on the Modern Retail Podcast, senior reporters Gabriela Barkho and Melissa Daniels kick things off with a discussion about how mergers and acquisitions in the retail space are going on pause amid widespread uncertainty. Industry watchers are closely monitoring the situation, and some consumer brand investors tell Modern Retail they're “taking a beat” before pulling the trigger on new deals. The pair also analyzes Walmart's announcement that it's testing out beauty bars in some stores as part of its spring beauty sales event. While a bid to compete with the likes Target and Ulta, it's also a continuation of a strategy to up its a beauty game. It's added more than 40 premium brands in the past year, expanded assortment in our core business, and launched a beauty accelerator program. Then (17:03), in honor of Earth Month, sees Daniels sits down with Rachel Kibbe, the founder and CEO of Circular Services Group (CSG) and American Circular Textiles (ACT) for this week's featured segment. Tariff policy changes are throwing sourcing and supply chain into the spotlight, souring conversations about American manufacturing and near shoring. Advocates for circular manufacturing, or systems that can help material be reused, recycled or remade, see the potential shift to more U.S. factories as an opportunity to stand up this infrastructure. Daniels and Kibbe discuss the promise and pitfalls of circular manufacturing and what it would take to get more infrastructure and industry in place here in the U.S. And Kibbe discusses the advocacy efforts ACT is undertaking in Washington, D.C. They also lay of land of domestic manufacturing, and the challenges that businesses face if they're looking to nearshore their supply chain in an effort to avoid tariffs.
Wrapping up Earth Month, I speak with JAMES THORNTON, founder of ClientEarth, the preeminent environmental law group, with 300 lawyers holding governments and companies accountable across the globe. He steps down as the group's president this month after 18 years. Their work training the Chinese - including their Supreme Court - in environmental law is remarkable. What I've learned about their successes has given me hope – something that can feel all too endangered these days. Listen in, if you could use a bit of the same.

Savor founder Kathleen Alexander did her research and landed on fats and oils, which are detrimental in all kinds of ways, from the way we practice agriculture to deforestation to energy use. Her company uses molecular construction to create replacement versions of fats and oils, starting with a butter that's good enough to be in the chocolates of a Michelin-star restaurant.

“It became, ‘No, I'm attacking this marathon.' It was more of an assertive mentality. Hearing the crowds roar, I was fighting for the podium… It was like, ‘This is it.' I'm doing what I set out to do and I feel great.' It was a very special moment. I was pretty zoned in, but I enjoyed it and I'd love to live through it again.”On a brisk April morning in Boston, Conner Mantz delivered the marathon breakthrough that he's been waiting for. Running fearlessly from the front, Mantz surged through the Newton Hills, hung with a deep pack through about 40 kilometers, and stopped the clock in 2:05:08 seconds — a massive personal best and the second-fastest time ever run by an American. Boston is not a record eligible course, but this was a major performance. He finished fourth overall and just four seconds off the podium in one of the fastest editions in Boston Marathon history. It was a performance that firmly placed Mantz among the world's elite, showing he's not just America's top distance talent, but he's now a serious contender at the sport's highest level too. This came just months after breaking the American record in the half marathon in Houston and just weeks after backing that up with a 59:15 in New York. It's been a big year and it's only April.In today's episode, Conner and I talked through that Boston effort from studying past races, to covering all the big moves, to racing for time and place. We also dig into what's next, chasing Khalid Khannouchi's American record, and the big step forward in American distance running.Hosts: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Conner Mantz | @connermantz on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

In this week's episode, we dive into the breaking news that Faith Kipyegon—the triple Olympic 1500m champion and world record holder—is set to chase history in June with an attempt to become the first woman ever to break four minutes for the mile. We break down Nike's Breaking4 announcement, the science behind the attempt, the pacing strategy, and whether it could redefine what's possible in women's distance running.Plus, we shift gears to preview what might be the greatest men's marathon field ever assembled: the 2025 London Marathon. From Kiplimo's debut to Kipchoge's return, Sawe's rise, and Olympic triathlon champ Alex Yee taking on 26.2—this race is packed with storylines and implications for the season ahead. We also discuss why Sifan Hassan may be the heavy favorite on the women's side.We close with quick hits from the upcoming Xiamen Diamond League, where Faith Kipyegon opens her season and Olympic champions square off in the field events.SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

Disney committed $15 million to the effort back in January. Disney has added “Disney Field Days” where they go and bring carnivals with characters, games, activities, and more to locations impacted. Recently, two schools in Brentwood, Disney cast members and VoluntEARS put on these events – to over 900 students. Two people who lost special items in the fires got a version of them back. One eight-year-old lost her giant stuffed Tigger in the fire, Disney replaced it with one that had traveled around Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Green Dreamer: Sustainability and Regeneration From Ideas to Life
(By request, this is the raw, untranslated version of our interview with Nemonte Nenquimo — in which you will hear Nemonte's original responses in Spanish to Kaméa's questions presented in English.)What has been the historical relationship between missionary work and the development of the oil industry in the Ecuadorian Amazon? What does it mean to listen to the voices — both human and more-than-human — of the Amazon Rainforest?And how do the Waorani navigate tensions between their Indigenous cosmovisions and ways of life, and the outside world's growing influence on their younger generations?For our special Earth Month feature, we are honored to share our powerful conversation with Waorani leader Nemonte Nenquimo — who recently co-authored We Will Be Jaguars with her partner, Mitch Anderson.How do we recenter our perspectives of “modern” on communities who are, in this modern day, most in tune with the languages of Mother Earth — and reorient our ideals of “futuristic” towards all that enrich and affirm life?We invite you to…tune in and subscribe to Green Dreamer via any podcast app;subscribe to kaméa's newsletters here;and support our show through a one-time donation or through joining our paid subscriptions on Patreon or Substack.
In a never-more-important throwback episode from 2021, hear again from KoAnn Skrzyniarz - who for years has been making a strong case for building Sustainable Brands in global conversations with some of the world's biggest advertisers. Learn why there's STILL a business -- and social -- value to purpose, perhaps even more so as environmental gains and progress towards sustainability are being undone with 'drill, baby, drill' threats and short-sighted profit-driven agendas. In time for Earth Month, or any time, KoAnn (frequently known by just her first name) shares not just the "whys", but some “hows”: how sustainability has moved the needle for leading brands and how to be resilient in a “VUCA” world. A what? Listen; she'll explain, and we also discuss: The impetus for creating Sustainable Brands What kind of changes has she seen in the brand and media marketplace in terms of embracing brand purpose "Twenty years ago it was not recognized that companies that understood how to innovate for environmental and social benefit were going to be the companies that survived and thrived in the 21st century." Is Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) a good description? (Hint: KoAnn explains why it's more a "business opportunity" and why the ANA [Association of National Advertisers] uses he notion of ‘good growth'. ) How companies should integrate their brand marketers and strategists, the product and service positioning teams AND the sustainability/procurement/diversity teams Is our current focus on brand purpose just another trend? How does it compare to the green rush of the 2007 timeframe or rallying around Hurricane Katrina? Have companies evolved in their mission-driven work? The data supportive of sales driven by environmental and social value propositions; What kinds of brand transformation are happening -- and at which companies? How have companies like Clorox and P&G navigated the road to sustainability? And what is a Brand Transformation Roadmap? How Sustainable Brands itself pivoted during the pandemic to salvage -- and even grow -- their world-class conferences in a VUCA world! (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity!)

A climate scientist and an architect discuss how design can be a force for positive environmental change. “I certainly remember, as a child growing up in the UK, we had a lot more snow than we do recently,” says UK-based climate scientist Ed Hawkins in this month's episode of the Magazine podcast. Hawkins's work, which visualizes the globe's warming temperatures over the last 160 years, is striking in more ways than one, showing us just how quickly and dramatically the environment has been changing. But climate change is more than escalating temperatures. It has tangible effects on how people live, and architects like Marina Tabassum have been using design as a tool to address hazardous conditions like flooding and soil erosion. For this Earth Month edition of the Magazine Podcast, we'll also hear from Tabassum about her collaboration with Bangladesh's landless populations and her project Khudi Bari (tiny house). Access a transcript of the conversation at https://www.moma.org/magazine/articles/1212.

The 2025 Boston Marathon promises an exciting blend of redemption stories, debut intrigue, and head-to-head rivalries across both elite fields. On the men's side, defending champion Sisay Lemma returns after last year's audacious front-running victory, facing off against 2024 Chicago champ John Korir, two-time Boston winner Evans Chebet, rising Kenyan Daniel Mateiko, and U.S. hopeful Conner Mantz. Other contenders include Lesotho's Tebello Ramakongoana and Americans Clayton Young and CJ Albertson, each hoping to outlast the pack or capitalize on race-day chaos.In the women's race, Hellen Obiri is chasing a rare three-peat in Boston, entering as the clear favorite despite a strong field. She'll be challenged by past podium finishers Amane Beriso and Sharon Lokedi, 2:16 marathoner Yalemzerf Yehualaw, and rising marathon star Irene Cheptai. The American field is led by Keira D'Amato in her Boston debut, Emma Bates returning to form, and Dakota Popehn riding Olympic momentum. Young talents like Gabi Rooker, Jessica McClain, and Jackie Gaughan round out a promising domestic squad, with veterans Des Linden and Sara Vaughn adding experience to the mix.Cooler temperatures, slight winds, and the Newton Hills promise another unpredictable Patriot's Day.

Trump sows cruel, careless, criminal, incompetent chaos - even in Earth Month. Here's my 2021 conversation with PAUL HAWKEN about his book, REGENERATION: ENDING THE CLIMATE CRISIS IN ONE GENERATION, and the organization dedicated to making that a reality. Here's a chance to step back or sink deeper into the promise and the challenge of making a regenerative society. As an approach, regeneration expands the scope of our response to the challenge of climate change by linking and weaving it with other critical challenges we face - economic inequality, social injustice, and endangered democracy - and placing love of life at the center of all we do.
“I wouldn't toe the line for any race if I didn't think I could win. I'm a David amongst Goliaths out there, but I think I've always got a chance [to win].”In 2024, Dakotah Popehn wasn't on most people's U.S. Olympic team shortlist, but that didn't stop her from running herself onto the team with a fearless third place finish at the U.S. Olympic Marathon Trials and a gutsy run in Paris that saw her leading the Olympic marathon around halfway. Popehn turned heads and rewrote the expectations around her name.Now she's back on the major stage – this time lining up in Boston with confidence, momentum, and a whole new set of eyes on her. She's won Grandma's Marathon and has been to the Olympic Games, but in the five World Marathon Majors she's raced, she's actually never cracked the top ten. Could that change in Boston?In this episode, we talk about how she's navigated a year of breakthroughs, how she's approaching Boston as both an underdog and a contender, and what she thinks of PUMA's Fast-R 3, which is already making headlines as the latest great innovation in the super shoes era.Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Dakotah Popehn | @dakotahlindwurm on Instagam SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

This week on Everybody in the Pool, it's Earth Month of personal climate action! This week we're tackling an all-too-common question: I want to shop more sustainably, but I'm not sure what to buy (or what not to buy)! Commons is an app and website that helps you easily find sustainable alternatives to everyday items — mostly clothes and textiles now, with more to come. Founder Sanchali Pal is a self-described data nerd who's been tracking her own carbon footprint, and the impact of her personal choices, for over a decade now. And here's the thing: we keep getting told that we're powerless and companies need to make meaningful change, but the truth is, they're listening to us, and the votes of our dollars matter now more than ever.LINKS:CommonsSanchali PalAll episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member and get an ad-free version of the podcast: https://plus.acast.com/s/everybody-in-the-poolPlease subscribe and tell your friends about Everybody in the Pool!

5–Minute Parenting: Tips to Help You Raise Competent, Godly Kids.
Send us a textJoin 5-Minute Parenting Host Karen Ferguson as she discusses putting the focus of Earth Month back where it belongs, onto our Creator God! The world tries to convince our children that mother earth is in charge of this world, and that we must help save it. As parents and grandparents we can be intentional to take the focus off the fictional character of mother earth, and put it right where it belongs: on God our Creator. We can have fun celebrating Earth Day, but from a Christian perspective. Rather than remain silent on the issue and leave the lessons to the classroom, or social media thread, let's use this secular holiday as a teachable moment to point our children to the beauty and intentional design of God's Creation

“That's one of the beauties of Boston: that anyone can win on the day... There's just too many variables. So do I have a shot? Yes. While that shot might be slim, it might be small, it's definitely there and I definitely think about it. That's what motivates me and makes me want to toe the line on race day and see what happens.”My guest for today's episode is Clayton Young. It should come as no surprise that this episode pairs well with last week's interview with Conner Mantz because since fall 2023, he's lined up alongside Conner in nearly every major race from Chicago to the Olympic Trials, Paris to New York, and most recently, in Houston back in January.While the spotlight often lands on Conner Mantz, it's impossible to overlook what Clayton has done: second at the Trials, ninth at the Olympics, seventh in New York City, and a personal best of 60:52 in Houston earlier this year for the half marathon. He's always been in the mix – always one move, one moment away from turning the tables.In today's conversation, Clayton reflects on the highs and lows of this particular training block, how he's managed to regain his confidence late in the build, and how he's approaching his Boston Marathon debut this upcoming Monday.Since he started representing himself, he also shares a bit of how he's making a bet on himself and how he went about structuring his contract for the race. It also wouldn't be fair if I didn't ask him what he thought his chances were of winning on race day. This episode talks about competition, belief, and the challenge of chasing your best when you're already running with the best every day in training.Host: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Clayton Young | @_clayton_young_ on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

“The part I also really love is finding the edges: How do we pursue the elite edge of world-class performance? I think as I've gotten further, that part is exciting me more and more as we go on here. But it doesn't have to just be world- class – how do you get people to find out how good they can really be?”When Chris Miltenberg took the helm at North Carolina in 2019, the Tar Heels distance programs had not won an ACC cross country title since before most of his current athletes were born. Fast forward to today and under Miltenberg's leadership, UNC has not only climbed back to the top of the ACC podium in cross country, indoor, and outdoor track, but they've reestablished themselves as a legitimate national contender too.Miltenberg has led UNC to top ten finishes at the NCAA cross country, indoor, and outdoor championships, he's coached Parker Wolfe to UNC's first-ever 5000m outdoor national title, signed the program's highest ranked recruiting class, and has built a culture of buy-in, belief, and bold ambition. Most recently, he's coming off an indoor season where Ethan Strand broke the collegiate records in the 3000m and mile before taking the NCAA title. Makayla Paige won the women's 800m to become the Tar Heels' first women's NCAA champion since 2018.But this isn't just a North Carolina story; Miltenberg's impact has been felt at every stop. At Stanford, he led the Cardinals to a top five program of the year finish and coached national champions like Grant Fisher, Sean McGorty, and Elise Cranny. At Georgetown, he guided the Hoyas to the 2011 NCAA Women's Cross Country title with the team that was led by Emily Infeld.In today's conversation, we talk about how he's building something sustainable in Chapel Hill, his approach to culture, and what it takes to coach through transitions, setbacks, and expectations. We also dig into athlete development, milestone moments, and why being present is one of the most underrated skills a coach can have.Hosts: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Chris Miltenberg | @chris.miltenberg on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

“I think I'm a guy who can win these races on the right day. I just need to prove that. I think the way to prove that, at least to myself, is to finish in the top three… I'd rather focus on getting on the podium in some of these races."Welcome back Conner Mantz to the CITIUS MAG Podcast for his 9th career appearance on the show. He's back ahead of his return to the 2025 Boston Marathon and he's bringing some serious momentum with him. In the past year alone, Mantz has shattered the American half marathon record in Houston, backed it up with another 57:15 performance at the NYC Half, which is a non-record eligible course, yet quite the performance. He's continued his streak of finishing as the top American in every major marathon since the fall of 2023.We talk about what's different this time around in Boston after his 11th place finish there in 2023, what he's learned from racing shoulder-to-shoulder with the world's best, and what he takes from another upcoming race with Clayton Young. We also go through some of the top contenders in the field and Conner expresses his thoughts on who's got a shot of winning and what he's taken away from each of those competitors.We explore where his mindset is heading into Patriots Day 2025 – a day that could crown the next American to break through on Boston's legendary course. It's been more than a decade since we've had an American man win – and Conner Mantz has a shot.Hosts: Chris Chavez | @chris_j_chavez on InstagramGuest: Conner Mantz | @connermantz on Instagram SUPPORT OUR SPONSORSOLIPOP: Big name sodas are rolling out bold new flavors in 2025, but the real buzz is happening in the prebiotic pop aisle.

This week on Everybody in the Pool, we're continuing our Earth Month of personal climate action! If your house is anything like mine, it's a leaky sieve of escaping heat or cool air, your HVAC filters are disgusting, and there are sneaky fluorescent bulbs hanging around the house. It's costing you money, and it's wasting energy, meaning it's contributing to planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions in a way that's probably fairly easy to avoid. This week, I'm talking to Evite founder Selina Tobaccowala about the company she has since founded, HomeBoost, and how it's helping homeowners make their homes more comfortable, energy efficient, and lower utility bills as a result.LINKS:HomeBoostSelina TobaccowalaAll episodes: https://www.everybodyinthepool.com/Subscribe to the Everybody in the Pool newsletter: https://www.mollywood.co/Become a member and get an ad-free version of the podcast: https://plus.acast.com/s/everybody-in-the-poolPlease subscribe and tell your friends about Everybody in the Pool!
