"How much of the game is mental... and how much are you training it?"That simple question from Dr. Michael Gervais, the world's leading high performance psychologist, rang in my ears back in 2011. Its impact has echoed through my life ever since.Today, Best Coast Media is proud to welcome back Dr. Gervais to the Y-Option podcast, presented by our founding partner 76.In a wide-ranging conversation, we dive into the heart of college football. From navigating the transfer portal to becoming a millionaire at 19, from what Athletic Directors should prioritize when hiring a head coach, to mastering the pressures of high performance as the stage gets bigger. We also have a powerful, heartfelt exchange about youth sports.Put simply: this episode is fire.If you believe in the mental game - or even if you're just curious - pull out your journal. There are gems worth capturing.Back in 2009, I met Dr. Michael Gervais. As the son of two therapists, I've always believed in the power of mindset and mental skills. Two years later, during the 2011 NFL Lockout, we shared stages around the country alongside leaders like then-Seattle Seahawks Head Coach Pete Carroll, Nike Executive Matt James, and author Kevin Carroll.We traveled the nation, speaking to high school coaches about building a philosophy. We made memories. Hopefully, we made an impact.But there's one moment I'll never forget.Dr. Gervais would ask a question we'd all heard before: “How much of the game is mental?”No matter the region, the answer was the same: “90%.”Then he'd follow up: “How much time do you spend training the mental game?”Again, the answer was consistent—and disappointing: “Less than 10%.”Fast forward to today: Dr. Gervais is the leading voice in high performance psychology. He's spent decades coaching the best in sport, business, science, and the arts. His work with the Seattle Seahawks is legendary, he's been an integral part of our Elite 11 quarterback development for the past 18 years with his company and podcast Finding Mastery is a must listen for all seeking to unlock their potential within.Since 2016, he's joined my podcast once a year. Every time, I walk away a better man - a more connected father, an inspired husband, a more present broadcaster, and hopefully, a better friend.My hope? This conversation lands with you too. And helps you get just 1% better, especially when it comes to your mental game.Much love and stay steady,YogiP.S.

Farmland values across Canada continued their steady upward trend in 2024, with the average price of farmland increasing by 9.3 per cent, according to Farm Credit Canada's latest Farmland Values Report. While the pace of growth slowed slightly compared to the 11.5 per cent increase recorded in 2023, FCC Chief Economist J.P. Gervais says the market remains strong despite some pressures. “The increase in Canadian farmland values in 2024 reflects an enduring strength in demand for farmland amid some pressures on commodity prices,” Gervais said. “The limited supply of farmland available for sale combined with lower borrowing costs resulted in an increase in the average price of farmland across the country.”

In this episode of WN Movie Talk Podcast, I discuss Cemetery Junction (2010), a criminally underrated coming-of-age film written and directed by Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant. Best known for their work on The Office and Extras, Gervais and Merchant took a bold step into feature filmmaking with this poignant yet often hilarious comedy-drama, set against the backdrop of 1970s working-class Britain.I break down the film's exceptional ensemble cast, featuring Christian Cooke, Felicity Jones, Jack Doolan, Tom Hughes, Ralph Fiennes, Emily Watson, and Matthew Goode. With a mix of rising stars and established actors, the film boasts powerhouse performances that bring depth to its themes of youthful ambition, societal expectations, and the struggle to escape small-town life.Beyond the cast, I explore how Cemetery Junction meticulously recreates the look and feel of 1970s Britain—from its soundtrack of era-defining rock classics to its depiction of blue-collar life, rigid class divisions, and changing social attitudes. This isn't just a nostalgic trip down memory lane; it's a film that balances humour and heartbreak in a way that deserves far more recognition than it received upon release.And of course, I reflect on Ricky Gervais' career trajectory—how did Cemetery Junction fit within his body of work? Was it a departure from his usual comedic style, and why did it struggle to find an audience? We also discuss his later projects, from Derek and After Life to his forays into Hollywood filmmaking.If you love hidden gems, British cinema, and coming-of-age films, this episode is a must-listen!

Les terres rares et les métaux critiques reviennent sans cesse dans l'actualité. Cette récurrence est bien sûr liée à l'appétit grandissant de Donald Trump pour ces ressources dites stratégiques. Étant donné que l'économie de demain en dépend, ce marché hautement compétitif ne concerne pas que les États-Unis. Félix Gervais, professeur à Polytechnique Montréal et expert en géologie, démystifie ces ressources et brosse un portrait de l'avenir de ces marchés si convoités.
On the heels of the announcement last week of a much anticipated new album by indie folk band The Head and the Heart, I'm excited to be able to share the following conversation with the band's Matty Gervais. This is one of your first chances to hear more about their exceptional new collection of tunes, Aperture, the band's sixth LP, which will be out on May 9th. There are already a few beautiful introductory singles online now, including the anthemic "Arrow" and the newly shared album opener, "After The Setting Sun." It was a pleasure to connect over zoom with Matty to talk about the making of Aperture and how it heralds a new chapter of freedom and collaboration for THATH. We also talk about some earlier THATH history, how they have benefited in more recent years from band therapy, and his own personal creative process for this new album. And of course we start by delving into Matty's early life experiences with music, growing up in Seattle during the grunge explosion, falling in love with recording his songs using a boombox technique he heard Dave Grohl describe in an interview, playing in bands with his brother and eventually joining THATH more than a decade ago. You can pre-order or pre-save Aperture, and get tickets for their upcoming shows HERE!Preview:3:30 - 13:00 - Early life experiences with music, learning to play drums, growing up during grunge, going to Bumbershoot with his parents, getting into Posies, Fastbacks, Supersuckers, The Presidents of the United States of America and other local bands13:20 - 21:00 - Writing and recording his own songs using Dave Grohl's boombox technique, developing his sound, playing in various bands leading up to joining THATH21:15 - 31:00 - Observing THATH as a fan, joining the band, adapting to their fame:31:00 - 34:00 - Band therapy and its benefits35:15 - 40:00 - Aperture, how it started and the writing and recording processes that arose from there40:30 - 49:00 - "Forest Bath": Walking through the woods writing melodies and lyrics; the inspiration for “After The Setting Sun”

He is a cultural and evolutionary psychologist who studies what people believe about the world. He is curious about a lot things that fall under the cultural/evolutionary psychology umbrella, but he is especially interested in atheists. What do atheists teach us about belief, morality, and what it means to be human? He is the author of Disbelief: The Origins of Atheism in a Religious Species. In this episode, we focus on Disbelief. We talk about the idea of religion and atheism as evolutionary puzzles. We discuss popular misconceptions about religion coming from Marx, Richard Dawkins, and the New Atheists. We talk about different approaches to religion, including the cognitive science of religion, behavioral genetics, and cultural evolution. We discuss what makes religions culturally successful, and the relationship between Big Gods and prosociality. We then talk about atheism, how many atheists are there, different pathways toward atheism, whether atheism is natural, and whether atheists are moral and trustworthy. Finally, we discuss the future of religion and atheism. -- A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS/SUPPORTERS: PER HELGE LARSEN, JERRY MULLER, BERNARDO SEIXAS, ADAM KESSEL, MATTHEW WHITINGBIRD, ARNAUD WOLFF, TIM HOLLOSY, HENRIK AHLENIUS, FILIP FORS CONNOLLY, DAN DEMETRIOU, ROBERT WINDHAGER, RUI INACIO, ZOOP, MARCO NEVES, COLIN HOLBROOK, PHIL KAVANAGH, SAMUEL ANDREEFF, FRANCIS FORDE, TIAGO NUNES, FERGAL CUSSEN, HAL HERZOG, NUNO MACHADO, JONATHAN LEIBRANT, JOÃO LINHARES, STANTON T, SAMUEL CORREA, ERIK HAINES, MARK SMITH, JOÃO EIRA, TOM HUMMEL, SARDUS FRANCE, DAVID SLOAN WILSON, YACILA DEZA-ARAUJO, ROMAIN ROCH, DIEGO LONDOÑO CORREA, YANICK PUNTER, CHARLOTTE BLEASE, NICOLE BARBARO, ADAM HUNT, PAWEL OSTASZEWSKI, NELLEKE BAK, GUY MADISON, GARY G HELLMANN, SAIMA AFZAL, ADRIAN JAEGGI, PAULO TOLENTINO, JOÃO BARBOSA, JULIAN PRICE, EDWARD HALL, HEDIN BRØNNER, DOUGLAS FRY, FRANCA BORTOLOTTI, GABRIEL PONS CORTÈS, URSULA LITZCKE, SCOTT, ZACHARY FISH, TIM DUFFY, SUNNY SMITH, JON WISMAN, WILLIAM BUCKNER, PAUL-GEORGE ARNAUD, LUKE GLOWACKI, GEORGIOS THEOPHANOUS, CHRIS WILLIAMSON, PETER WOLOSZYN, DAVID WILLIAMS, DIOGO COSTA, ALEX CHAU, AMAURI MARTÍNEZ, CORALIE CHEVALLIER, BANGALORE ATHEISTS, LARRY D.

Angela is joined by Michael Gervais, an expert in mastery, to explore the profound impact of identity and thoughtfulness in personal and professional growth. They discuss the concept of mastery as a commitment to artistic expression at the edge of one's capabilities, emphasising the importance of being present and aware in everyday life. Michael also shares insights from his extensive interviews with top performers, highlighting the distinction between striving to be the best versus being one's best. MAIN TAKEAWAYS Mindset Mastery: Embracing mindfulness and resilience helps us focus on what's within our control, strengthening self-awareness and adaptability. Purpose-Based Identity: A purpose-oriented identity offers deeper satisfaction than a performance-focused identity, allowing individuals to align with their core values.

In Disbelief: The Origins of Atheism in a Religious Species, Will Gervais explores the interconnected nature of religious belief and atheism in human psychology. Gervais proposes that understanding religion requires solving two evolutionary puzzles: the Puzzle of Faith, examining how Homo sapiens became uniquely religious, and the Puzzle of Atheism, investigating how disbelief exists within this religious species. This approach yields a comprehensive theory explaining both faith and atheism, shedding light on humanity's religious evolution and the current trend of abandoning belief. Gervais draws on cognitive science, cultural evolution, and evolutionary psychology to challenge existing theories of religion. Will Gervais, PhD, is a prominent cultural evolutionary psychologist specializing in the scientific study of atheism. His research, featured in major media outlets, bridges cultural evolution, evolutionary psychology, and cognitive science. Gervais's interdisciplinary work has earned him recognition as a Rising Star by the Association for Psychological Science and garnered awards from the American Psychological Association and the Foundation for Personality and Social Psychology. In Disbelief, Gervais employs accessible prose and compelling examples to explain humanity's religious origins, the shift away from faith, and strategies for navigating religious divides in our culturally evolved landscape. Shermer and Gervais explore the nature of religion, various belief systems, and atheism's prevalence and perception. They delve into the cognitive foundations of faith, evolutionary perspectives on religion, and its historical and societal roles. The discussion covers the adaptive nature of belief, religious diversity, and the impact of religion on personal and social well-being. They also consider the future of belief systems and potential alternatives to traditional religion.
