"Anything beats writing. Writing is tough," says John McPhee, staff writer for The New Yorker and author of more than thirty books of nonfiction.Hey CNFers, this is Episode 500 of The Creative Nonfiction Podcast, the show where I speak to tellers of true tales about the true tales they tell. There are kilometer stones like 100, 200, 300, and 400, but this one, this is a milestone and it features the writer and journalist who made me want to write narrative nonfiction in the first place: John McPhee.John is a titan, a soft-spoken titan. He is the author of more than 30 books, including A Sense of Where You Are, Levels of the Game, his Pulitzer Prize-winning Annals of the Former World, and the book that made me want to write nonfiction: The Survival of the Bark Canoe. John is 94 years young, still lives in Princeton where he has taught an exclusive masterclass on factual storytelling, a class taken by the likes of David Remnick and the late Grant Wahl, I believe, among countless people who have gone on to write and report with distinction.He's been a staff writer for The New Yorker since the 1960s when William Shawn was the editor. Not long thereafter, he was offered a job to teach at his alma mater Princeton University and he famously edited students' submissions not unlike how Shawn edited him at The New Yorker. He's written about such wide ranging topics from basketball, to tennis, to bark canoes, to Alaska, to lacrosse, to oranges, to myriad topics in geology.John is synonymous with thinking through structure and coming up with unique structures for most of his stories, each one something of a fingerprint: no two are alike and the facts borne out from this intensive, slow reporting dictate the shape of the story he has locked into.His work is methodical and patient. He hangs out. He fills notebook after notebook, rarely uses a recorder, maybe only if there's someone speaking in such technical jargon that there's no way to keep pace. His career has been this wonderful balance of give and take: teach for most of the year and not write; then write and not teach. John is unassuming and gentle and an example of how you can do this work without bombast or pyro and still be riveting and sometimes downright hilarious.So we talk about: The influence of his high school English teacher Olive McKee Living room fighters Writing on spec The notebooks he's used for decades How a lack of confidences is an asset What a good editor does Writing as teaching How having a plan frees you to write The panic of having not written leads to productivity And how proud of his daughters he isParting shot on what it all means at 500 and maybe where I see the show going for the next 500.Order The Front RunnerNewsletter: Rage Against the AlgorithmWelcome to Pitch ClubShow notes: brendanomeara.com

This week, host Mihir Vasavda talks to The Indian Express chess experts Amit Kamath and Mayank Chaudhary about the untimely passing away of American grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky. They talk about how the Russian great Vladimir Kramnik has found himself at the centre of the controversy, and discuss the larger issue of cheating in chess, especially how Kramnik's unsubstantiated allegations against Naroditsky took a mental toll on him.Produced by Shashank BhargavaEdited and mixed by Suresh Pawar

A tragic story in the world of chess, as 29-year-old Chess Grandmaster Daniel Naroditsky was found dead this week at his home in Charlotte. As of this recording, there is no official cause of death, but late this week police acknowledged they were investigating his death as a possible drug overdose/suicide. Meantime, much of the chess world is pointing fingers at 50-year-old former chess World Champion, Vladimir Kramnik who has viciously, repeatedly and baselessly accused Naroditsky of cheating over the years. The International Chess Federation announced it was investigating Kramnik for his public comments before and after Naroditsky’s death, but many say it’s too little, too late.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Former World Number One tennis player Lindsay Davenport joins Jeff and the guys on this episode, and her journey to the top of the tennis world is anything but typical. In fact, Lindsay refers to it as the "accident" story. Raised in a volleyball family, with her father an Olympian, Lindsay was expected to eventually leave tennis behind and follow in those footsteps. Instead, she charted her own path, turning pro as a teenager and going on to win multiple Grand Slam titles, an Olympic Gold medal at the 1996 Atlanta Games, and later becoming a coach to some of today's top women's players.Beyond her storied career, Lindsay is also a dedicated sports mom. Her son was one of the world's top junior tennis players and is now competing at the collegiate level for Stanford. Meanwhile, her daughter is following the family's volleyball legacy and will be playing for USC next year. Lindsay discusses pursing her dream when it wasn't what her parents wanted. She also talks about the decision she made to turn pro at an early age, and gives her opinion on whether today's elite players should turn pro or play in college. And, for tennis fans, she shares some great inside info on the world of tennis.

PLS NOTE: There is some swearing in this episode and it is not one that is suitable for children.What's it like to be the no.1 12U player in the World? To be the youngest player ever to be signed by the IMG management company. To win a full scholarship to one of the most famous tennis academies in the World.Reckon the future for that player and his family was bright? Fame and riches around the corner?Today's guest, Todd Ley who hails from Adelaide in Australia, was in exactly that position. And has written all about that part of the journey and what happened next in a searingly honest book called Smashed.As you'll hear today, what happened next was not fame and fortune. What came next was darkness and at times despair. A chapter which Todd is now moving on from as he rides the rollercoaster of life working in the world of coaching - and I hope setting down what happened in the book will help him do just that. It has certainly helped me think about the journey we are on as a tennis family and why we are on it. It has helped me gain perspective of what is important and for that I thank Todd.Today's episode may not be easy listening at times, you might not agree with everything Todd says, but do take a listen because Todd's story and messages will I think help our family and our tennis journeys and I hope it will maybe help yours too.Visit Todd Ley's website to find about more about the book and BUY A COPY OF SMASHED NOWThanks to FeedSpot for naming My Tennis Journey as a Top 5 UK tennis podcast - much appreciated!

Let's be clear about one thing: Lisa Isom has been crushing the endurance sports scene for a long time....and she's showing no signs of slowing down, either. Now in her 50s, the Eagle Valley High School legend, XTERRA Worlds podium placer and former USA Mountain trail team member is giving back some of her wisdom as head coach of the Battle Mountain Nordic ski team. Pretty cool for someone who originally earned a college scholarship for volleyball and didn't run her first cross-country race until after high school.... Isom would need at least a 3 hours podcast to share all of her sports stories and wisdom, but we only had about 45 minutes before she had to head out from Tennessee Pass for practice in Vail. ...so....this is all for now...but we'd love to bring her back on the show sometime in the future. Thank you, Lisa, for the time. If you liked this show and want to support the cause, go here! Merry Christmas! --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/seder-skier/support

There have been a lot of eyes drawn to Dream Star Fighting Marigold from the very get-go. Not only because it is the latest endeavour of Rossy Ogawa, but also due to it coming by way of a ‘split' from World Wonder Ring Stardom.Former-World of Stardom Champion Utami Hayashishita was arguably the biggest name to take the leap alongside Rossy, Giulia and a handful of other roster members in May 2024. At 26-years old, and managing to achieve almost all there is to achieve in Stardom, many looked to Utami as the Ace of Marigold and the person to build this entire venture around.With a Marigold World Championship match locked in for First Dream on the 3rd January 2025, we were granted the opportunity to talk to Utami about the label of ‘Ace of Marigold', who she would like to face in singles action – both in Marigold and out – that match with IYO SKY and so much more…Read the full interview transcript here: https://talkjoshi.com/the-marigold-red-queen-cometh-exclusive-utami-hayashishita-interview/Subscribe to our PATREON: https://patreon.com/TheStardomCastThe website: https://www.talkjoshi.comSubscribe to the Podcast: https://linktr.ee/TheStardomCastJoin our Discord Server: https://discord.gg/bbDcAwcTwitter: https://www.twitter.com/marigoldpodcastBuy our Merch: https://teespring.com/en-GB/stores/podmania-podcasting-networkYouTube: https://tinyurl.com/2s4zrf3rBuy Rob's NEW Stardom Book – Chasing the Dream: 50 of Stardom's Greatest Matches Right Here: https://tinyurl.com/2eemszmtAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

He talks about the differences between European and American gravel racing, including team tactics and the importance of positioning. Chad also shares his thoughts on using aerobars in gravel racing and the challenges of racing as a team in a solo-focused sport. The conversation includes some lighthearted banter about bike brands and equipment choices. Chad discusses his experience racing the Rift and his tire choice for the race. He also talks about his setup for the Migration gravel race and the challenges of racing on rough terrain. The conversation shifts to the changing landscape of professional cycling, with younger riders entering the gravel scene and the transition from road racing to gravel. Chad expresses his satisfaction with racing gravel and the freedom it offers. The discussion touches on recovery between races and the demands of the gravel season. The conversation concludes with a lighthearted discussion about VO2 max and the perception of age in professional cycling. The conversation in this segment starts with a discussion about VO2 max tests and the results that Chad and Drew received. They joke about their VO2 max scores and how they compare to each other. The conversation then transitions to a discussion about the future of gravel racing in the US, including the potential for teams to become more involved. They also talk about the UCI's involvement in gravel racing and the popularity of longer events. The conversation concludes with listener questions about tire width preferences and how long the Bonk Bros could hold Tadej Pogacar's wheel up a climb. In this final part of the conversation, the hosts discuss crank arm length and its impact on performance and comfort. Dylan shares that he switched to 165mm cranks on all his bikes to reduce knee pain and improve his range of motion. Chad mentions that he is considering switching to 170mm cranks on his road and gravel bikes for fit reasons. They also touch on the topic of shorter cranks benefiting time trialists by allowing them to maintain a more aero position. The hosts conclude the conversation by discussing upcoming races and plans.

The Unbound Gravel race is known for its deep field and tactical racing. Chad Haga prefers not to use aerobars in gravel racing due to the nature of the terrain and the need for control. Team dynamics in gravel racing can be challenging, but having a reliable teammate can make a difference. Equipment choices, such as bike brands and clothing, can vary between regions and races. Tire choice is crucial for gravel racing, with riders opting for wider and more durable tires to handle rough terrain. The gravel racing scene is attracting younger riders who see it as a viable career option, leading to increased competition. Chad enjoys the freedom and fun of racing gravel and does not miss road racing. Recovery between races is manageable for Chad, with most races being long aerobic efforts. VO2 max testing is not always a reliable indicator of performance, and experience and body of work can be more important in evaluating a rider's abilities. VO2 max tests can provide interesting and sometimes surprising results Gravel racing in the US is likely to continue growing, with the potential for more team involvement The UCI's involvement in gravel racing is limited, and most major gravel races in the US are not sanctioned Tire width preferences vary among riders, but wider tires are generally considered faster The Bonk Bros speculate on how long they could hold Tadej Pogacar's wheel up a climb Switching to shorter crank arms can help reduce knee pain and improve range of motion. Shorter cranks may benefit time trialists by allowing them to maintain a more aero position. Crank arm length does not significantly impact power output. Chad is considering switching to 170mm cranks on his road and gravel bikes for fit reasons. The hosts discuss upcoming races and plans. Titles Tactical Racing at the Unbound Gravel Race The Importance of Team Dynamics in Gravel Racing Tire Choice and Racing the Rift Transition from Road Racing to Gravel The Future of Gravel Racing in the US Surprising VO2 Max Results and Ghosting by Vaughters Upcoming Races and Plans Benefits of Shorter Cranks for Time Trialists Sound Bites "It's a bike race, like why should I help you if it doesn't help me?" "I was gonna do a three spoke on my gravel bike" "There's gonna be a day when I just smoke you" "I'm never gonna hear the end of it" "What tires are you gonna talk about a mountain bike" "I'm gonna be on the 45c Maxxis Revers" "Care to guess the VOT max that had me ghosted by Vaughters?" "Drew, your VO2 max is eight higher than Chad's and Chad smoked you at unbound. Wasn't even close." "I largely see it just continuing the way it's been going as far as the events that are on offer." "If I'm training a lot, like probably 30 plus hour weeks, I can get some knee pain. And when you have shorter cranks, you do a little bit smaller range of motion." "The research seems to suggest that crank length doesn't impact power output. It doesn't really matter what the length of your crank is." "I don't know if there's a need for me to go to 160, but apparently SRAM is going to start doing 160mm cranks."

Amos Mansdorf grew up outside of Tel Aviv, a 2nd generation Israeli, as his grandparents migrated to Israel in the 20's. In 1987 he got to 18 in the world, the highest ranking ever for an Israeli, and had an awesome career, beating Hall of Famers Connors, Becker, and Muster to name a few. He appeared in 16 finals and won 6 titles.Amos joined me from his home in Tel aviv where just hours earlier the sirens were sounded and missiles flew overhead, as Israel is at war. We discussed the situation at length, and then were able to successfully segue to tennis. It was an important and exceptional conversation.Recorded 10.24 Released 10.26The Craig Shapiro Tennis Podcast is Powered By Diadora Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
