In the 34th episode, Connor talks with WSOP free-to-play app ambassador Sam Abernathy about growing up in Georgia, studying design, the similarities between gymnastics and poker, finishing third in the 2016 Aussie Millions Main Event, and a notorious slow roll that took place in that event. Abernathy also talks about first getting into poker through the WSOP Play app before becoming an ambassador years later, motherhood and being married to fellow poker player Lautaro Guerra, who finished 15th in this year's WSOP Main Event for $450,000. This interview was filmed at the 2025 WSOP at Horseshoe and Paris Las Vegas.

O., Oladosu G. A., and Hart A. L. https://core.ac.uk/downloads/pdf/158459099.pdf Music written and performed by Katherine Camp   Transcript (Piano music plays) Kiersten - This is Ten Things I Like About…a ten minute, ten episode podcast about unknown or misunderstood wildlife. (Piano music stops)   Kiersten - Welcome to Ten Things I Like About… I'm Kiersten, your host, and this is a podcast about misunderstood or unknown creatures in nature. Some we'll find right out side our doors and some are continents away but all are fascinating.  This podcast will focus ten, ten minute episodes on different animals and their amazing characteristics. Please join me on this extraordinary journey, you won't regret it. This is episode six of Aba aba and the sixth thing I like about Gymnarchus niloticus is their diet. We have talked a bit about this is the past, but we will add a bit more detail of what Aba abas like to eat in this episode. I have a guest co-host with me this week as I have had some dental work done and need help with all this talking! My husband, Georgiy, is helping me today. Welcome Georgiy, and thanks for helping me out! Georgiy: Absolutely! Hi! Kiersten: I know you've been listening to this series…right? Georgiy: Riiight… Kiersten: Of course you love it. What's your favorite thing about the Aba aba so far? Georgiy: The scientific name. Let me try to pronounce it. Gymnastic nalarcus? Kiersten: (laughs) Not even close! Gymnar-kus niloti-kus. Georgiy: (laughs) Gymnar-kus niloti-kus Kiersten: I like that too, but I like everything about the Aba aba. Can you tell our listeners what you've learned about what the Aba aba eats? Georgiy: I know they are carnivores, so they like to eat meat.  Kiersten: Definitely! Georgiy: When they are small, 2 to 3 inches in length, they eat insects found in the water and very small fish. A study done in Nigeria found that 36% of juvenile diets were made up of aquatic insects.  Kiersten: Really? Georgiy: Yes! 32% of the diet was made up of fish. Kiersten: Interesting. Did it say what kind of insects and fish? Georgiy: No. They looked at stomach contents of dead juveniles, so they only found small parts of the digested prey. Kiersten: Hmmm. It sounds like the juvenile Aba aba is a specialist feeder on insects? Georgiy: Yes! Exactly. Another study showed that Aba aba young that have used up their egg yolks will eat the midge larvae that are in the nests with them! The adult midges lay eggs on the grasses that the male Aba abas use to make their nests! Kiersten: Wow! That's so smart. I love it! Bring the food to you. Does their diet change as they get older? Georgiy: Yes. As they get older, and larger, they can eat bigger prey items. They will eat more fish, such as silversides, tetras, or African catfish, and add crustaceans to their diet. They will still eat insects but this makes up very little of the diet when they are adults. Kiersten: That sounds like a smart survival plan. Georgiy: Yes. The Aba aba are not competing with each other for food sources and they don't risk injury by hunting something larger than themselves. What did you feed them at the zoo? Kiersten: Ooo. Good question! We fed them silver side fish and shrimp. The nutritionist made sure we varied his diet so he got the right type of nutrients to keep him healthy. The nutrition staff made the diet for us and weighed out just the right amount of food, so he didn't get overweight, but also didn't get too hungry. He never turned his noise up at anything we offered him. It was one more thing I like about working with him. We never had to worry about him not eating. Georgiy: How did you feed him? Kiersten: This was also fun! Since his eyesight was not great, we fed him with tongs so we never had to remove decaying fish form the tank. That can get pretty gross and can be detrimental to his health. We offered him one piece at a time with tongs that were about 12 inches long. We just dipped the fish or shrimp into the water and it was only a matter of moments before he found it. Georgiy: That sounds fun. Kiersten: It was fun, but we had to be careful because if he accidental got one of our fingers he could really hurt us. When Aba abas eat their prey they suck the food into their mouths with a quick forceful suction. If you remember my bite story from last week, the popping sound, that was the suction action he used to pull the prey item into his mouth. If it had been something smaller than my arm he could have bitten off my finger. Georgiy: Whoa! Kiersten: Yep! Once an Aba aba has sucked in a prey item they clamp their mouths shut and use their bony tongue to help guide the food down their esophagus whole! Georgiy: That cool! Kiersten: It actually is pretty cool. Georgiy: How do the find their food in the wild? Kiersten: That is a great question and I will be answering that in next week's episode. Thanks for helping me out with this episode Georgiy, I really appreciate it. Georgiy: My pleasure. Thanks for having me! Kiersten: I hope you all enjoyed this episode about the Aba aba diet because it is my sixth favorite thing bout them. If you're enjoying this podcast please recommend me to friends and family and take a moment to give me a rating on whatever platform your listening. It will help me reach more listeners and give the animals I talk about an even better chance at change.  Join me next week for another exciting episode about the Aba aba.        (Piano Music plays)  This has been an episode of Ten Things I like About with Kiersten and Company.

What do you get when you combine a lifelong mover, a mum of five, a GP, and an ultra-runner with a big heart and a quiet determination? You get Libby Oakley. In this episode, Libby shares her journey from being a “strong” gymnast (bars and vault were her jam!) to discovering running later in life—and then falling all the way down the ultra rabbit hole. From her first reluctant 10K to toeing the line at Delirious West, Unreasonable East, and soon Tor des Géants in the Italian Alps, Libby has taken on challenges most of us can barely imagine… and learned a truckload along the way. We chat about: •Why being “a diesel, not a gazelle” is a strength •Juggling medicine, motherhood, and mileage •Foot care tips (including the trench foot incident!) •Why discomfort might just be the best teacher •How hallucinations go from “fairy lights” to “full-blown crime drama” Whether you're just getting started or you're deep into the ultra world, Libby's story will remind you that it's not about being the fastest—it's about showing up, staying curious, and loving the process.

We kick off this Spotlight at the Western States 100, where much of the buzz centered on David Roche's DNF. Roche, a polarizing figure who promised to “science the shit” out of the race, faced unfair criticism both before and after the race, and Ross reflects on how the scientific process often works best when the "hypothesis" fails, and why confronting failed hypotheses to explain under-performance is more beneficial than riding a wave of success .The "science the shit out of it" theme continues with Nike's hyped attempt to help Faith Kipyegon break the 4-minute mile. It didn't just fall short—it missed by a long shot, with Kipyegon never really giving the barrier a scare with a pacing strategy that reveals they all knew it was not truly feasible. Ross and Gareth unpack the science, pseudoscience and "hacks" behind the effort, with honorable mentions for the obviously flawed claims by scientists about drafting benefits, and criticism of many media who parroted hype points without critical thought. We wonder what the athlete who could break 4 looks like, and postulate that they probably don't exist. Yet. From ultra to ultra-short, we shift to the 100m, where Kishane Thompson clocked a blistering 9.75s—the fastest in a decade, leading Gareth to wonder why sprinting seems to have plateaued post-Bolt?In Center Stage (37:14), legal expert Matt Kemp joins us to dissect a recent rugby case where a player successfully sued an opponent for causing a spinal injury with a reckless off-the-ball collision. Could this open the door to more civil claims in contact sports? Matt explains the legal standards around recklessness and duty of care. Ross Replies (1:15:23) to Discourse member Paul on the purpose of sports science and what "truth" means when studies can't be replicated?And in Listener Lens (1:24:15), we explore ATP's role in exercise, wonder whether you can ever “run out” of it, and how the purpose of metabolism is to keep it in good supply. And Finally (1:31:17), we invite you all to join our Tour de France Fantasy League, and see if you can top Gareth and Ross' picks in our two leagues!Join DiscourseJoin the Discourse community, to hang out with the racers, analysts, legal experts, coaches and experts, by making a small monthly pledge at PatreonLinksAnalysis of the 100m event that inspired our 100m chatGymnastic medalists are getting olderReport on the decision ruling in favour of a player injured by opponentMatt, our new legal expert, is a partner at Becker Kemp Solicitors & AttorneysRoss' reply to Tony on the ATP depletion question - members onlyTDF FANTASY LEAGUE - play one of our two leagues Hosted on Acast.

In this episode of the Hammer Cast, I celebrate the 14th anniversary of my journey into calisthenics training by sharing key insights and lessons learned over the years. Drawing from my own personal experience as well as that of my students from around the world, I dish on a comprehensive overview of how to successfully approach calisthenics - not just for short term goals, but for life. Oh, and I also talk about on the upcoming Black Sabbath concert - the LAST and FINAL one ever - which I'm pumped for.
