They added their inaugural group of brewers not long ago and new they've welcome their first beers. Those had to be some tough decisions.The Great American Beer Fest is just around the corner and they've got some new things planned for 2025. There were some interesting changes last year as well. As we all know our beloved beverage is having tough times. The BA is doing amazing things to make GABF interesting to beer lovers and others. It's sure to be a good time.We learned of some crazy laws in Wisconsin that is seriously hurting the brewfest scene.

At one event over 60 breweries have already canceled their participation.In other news...

Hello, and welcome to another episode of The Blueprint Podcast. In this Hall of Fame episode, we sit down with one of our Property Entrepreneur Masterminders, Steve Hammond, Director of New Home Company, to explore his transformative journey over the past three years within the Property Entrepreneur community. From a business owner caught in the weeds to a strategic leader with a high-performing team, Steve shares how PE gave him the blueprint to “get out of the way” and let his business thrive. Thanks to Property Entrepreneur, Steve gained clarity around building a world-class team, implementing national-level systems and processes, and learning to measure what truly matters. With the support of the community and framework, he has appointed a new Project Manager and Finance Manager, developed a full operations manual and SOPs, and introduced a Director's Dashboard that drives better planning and accountability through clear targets and KPIs. Steve's mindset has shifted dramatically. He no longer sees himself as the hero who must do it all. Instead, he has embraced being a leader - one who delegates effectively, empowers the right people in the right seats, and communicates with confidence. These internal shifts have helped him overcome perfectionism, restructure his operations, and create a business that is designed for growth, sustainability, and freedom. Throughout his journey, Steve and his company have been recognised both within PE and beyond. New Home Company was nominated for Networking Event of the Year, won Development of the Year, and Steve himself was voted Whitebox Mentee of the Year by fellow mentees—reflecting the high regard in which he's held by peers and partners alike. Beyond business, Steve has made a significant impact in the charity space. As a top fundraiser for Get Up and Give Back, he personally raised over £20,000, while inspiring his network to raise tens of thousands more. His approach to fundraising mirrored his approach to business: focus on team spirit, gamify the process, and raise the standard. These efforts not only supported meaningful causes but also showcased the power of leadership, culture, and purpose. Steve's advice to entrepreneurs is simple: if you're still stuck in the day-to-day, it's time to build a world-class team, implement scalable systems, and measure what matters. And most importantly—get out of your own way. Success and failure are both very predictable. I hope you enjoy. This isn't a theory. It's a proven Blueprint.

RJ bell, Steve Fezzik and Scott Seidenberg talk NFL Preseason and much more. RJ Bell opens with humor, likening obvious seasonal choices to betting decisions, and transitions into a sales pitch for pregame season picks, stressing that buying early is always best. He notes past success from cappers including A.J. Hoffman at +75 units, Goodfella at +50, Shaker with 20–26, and Steve Fezzik with 10 of 12 winning years, though Fezzik is down this year with 30 pending bets. A podcast coupon TOUCHDOWN75 offers $75 off. Light conversation covers Fezzik “holding down the fort,” movies like Dances with Wolves and Tin Cup, and McKenzie's trip to Chicago. Shifting to football, Fezzik reports a preseason week one scoring surge: 14 overs, 2 unders, 44.9 points per game, about eight points above totals and eight higher than last year's week one. Yardage and first down numbers barely rose, suggesting other causes, chiefly a new kickoff rule moving touchbacks to the 35-yard line. Week one saw an 80% return rate, same as last year's first week, but higher variance from returns creates more scoring opportunities than uniform touchbacks. Another factor is improved field goal prep—kickers now get balls earlier—producing 88.8% accuracy on 63 attempts, including 18 makes from 50+ yards and a 70-yarder, up from 86% last year. RJ and Fezzik argue this, combined with kickoff variance, will cut punts and boost points. Fezzik advises betting overs now before public momentum inflates totals. They analyze betting market evolution, noting early-week line moves remain sharp but late-week ones have softened due to more public money from legalized wagering. Bookmaker practices limiting sharps quickly are discussed alongside anecdotes from Pinnacle's Henry about reading bettors. Strategic implications emerge for team totals and props tied to strong kickers and returners. RJ prefers season-long overs before adjustment; Fezzik expects kickoff returns to stay near 85% in the regular season. RJ stresses finding betting niches you enjoy. Scott shares success in “longest rush/reception” props using YAC and missed tackle data. Preseason takeaways include that league-wide rule effects matter regardless of personnel, while starter-vs-starter glimpses gain value as preseason progresses. Fezzik's best bet is Detroit +3.5 vs Miami, citing the Lions' third game and 8 days rest against Miami's second game, short week, and back-to-back road travel. RJ outlines how Hall of Fame game participants excel late in week one due to conditioning depth. Scott's best bet is Eagles -4.5 vs Browns, exploiting Cleveland's depleted QB depth versus standout Eagles backup Tanner McKee. Scott presents an offensive tackle composite ranking from PFF and pass block win rate to find teams facing weak tackles; 49ers rank second easiest, making Nick Bosa a candidate for Defensive Player of the Year at +1500, sack leader at +1100, or 15+ sacks at +250. Using the same method, the Giants face the third toughest tackle slate, leading RJ to target under on Brian Burns sacks. Discussion notes good defensive lines facing strong tackles make sack production harder. They close with an announcement that Scott will appear less often due to new opportunities but will return during the season, ending with thanks, a Johnny Cash anecdote, and Fezzik quoting Cash lyrics.

https://teachhoops.com/ Here is a generic take on an interview with a "Hall of Fame Coach AC." When asked what single principle defined his Hall of Fame career, the legendary Coach AC pauses, his gaze steady. "It was never about the X's and O's on the chalkboard; those change with the times. The foundation was always about accountability. I demanded that every player be accountable to the person next to them, both on and off the field. It's about building a culture where the team's standards are more important than any individual's comfort. We didn't build teams; we forged chains, where every link was responsible for the strength of the whole. Talent can win you games, but it's that shared accountability and trust that wins you championships."
In this inspiring episode of NFL Players: Second Acts, Hall of Fame quarterback Jim Kelly sits down with hosts Peanut Tillman and Roman Harper and shares how enduring four straight Super Bowl losses shaped his perspective on the game and on life.

He also talks about his commitment to honoring the legacy of his late son Hunter through his charitable foundation, and the purpose that drives his second act.

What do typhoon evacuations, koala selfies, and second breakfast in Hobbiton have in common? They've all been part of Deacon Bob's adventurous month. After a few weeks apart, Father Dave and Deacon Bob are back, swapping globe-trotting tales, ministry moments, and a surprisingly full slate of sports updates. Bob's recent trip took him from the typhoon-swept Philippines to Singapore, Perth, Sydney, and a bucket-list stop in New Zealand's Hobbiton (yes, complete with hobbit holes, the Green Dragon Inn, and second breakfast). Along the way, he preached to 90 youth leaders just hours after a typhoon hit, met a koala, saw kangaroos, and even met a listener named Rain who drove five hours just to hear him speak. There were plenty of memorable meals, from perfect pancakes to less-than-crispy bacon. Meanwhile, Father Dave stayed stateside, baptizing great-nieces (one walked to her own baptism), speaking at the Knights of Columbus Conference, and making a moving visit to the Blessed Stanley Rother Shrine in Oklahoma City. He shares Rother's remarkable story—from failing Latin in seminary, to obeying his bishop's call to return to Guatemala, to his martyrdom in 1981—and the beauty of a shrine built right in the heart of the city it serves. Sports fans get plenty too: the debut of MLB's first female umpire Jen Pawol (including her Hall of Fame–bound first pitch), Tom Brady's towering new statue, and even a trivia challenge about the University of Michigan making draft history. Naturally, there are detours, including CGI vs. AI, bad sports statues, and ministry moments that transcended cultural boundaries. But through it all, the heart stays the same: joyfully sharing the Gospel, wherever God sends you (even if it's to a sheep paddock in New Zealand). Highlighted Sections (00:00) Sports, Schedules, and Saying Goodbye The guys open with bittersweet news about the podcast winding down, why recording has gotten harder, and an invitation for listeners to share favorite memories. They then go into the week's light sports slate and review the new Superman. Even with the end in sight, their trademark banter is alive and well. (05:41) Football, Statues, and Sports Trivia Deacon Bob previews a Buccaneers-Steelers preseason game while Father Dave looks forward to Steelers training camp. They discuss Tom Brady's towering statue and celebrate Jen Pawol historic debut as MLB's first female umpire. The segment wraps with a trivia challenge about a university making draft history in all four major leagues. (15:44) From Typhoons to Hobbit Holes Bob recounts ministry in the Philippines, Perth, and New Zealand, including speaking to youth leaders after a typhoon and connecting with alumni abroad. He describes walking through the Shire set from The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit, complete with hobbit holes and the Green Dragon Inn. Jenny may not be a huge fan of the films, but even she found the tour magical. (23:42) Sydney, Koalas, and the Ends of the Earth From welcoming bishops to preaching across cultures, Bob reflects on moments when the Holy Spirit's anointing was tangible. He shares encounters with young adults, a koala, and a listener who drove five hours to hear him speak. Each stop reaffirmed the universal joy of sharing the Gospel. (25:42) Baptisms, Knights, and Blessed Stanley Rother Father Dave talks about baptizing his great-nieces and representing Franciscan University at the Knights of Columbus Conference. He shares the moving story of Blessed Stanley Rother a missionary priest martyred in Guatemala, and describes visiting the shrine dedicated to him. The witness of Rother's courage and devotion left a lasting impression. (32:37) Feast Days and a Chapel Blessing Looking ahead to the Feast of the Assumption they pray for peace amid global tensions. Father Dave previews the blessing of Franciscan University's newly renovated Christ the King Chapel, while Bob outlines upcoming speaking engagements. The conversation closes with anticipation for the start of the school year.

Send me a Text Message!If there is a museum in heaven, if there are collections of priceless antiques in heaven, the highlighted pieces that will be viewed with the greatest honor will not be those containing the artifacts of times when the Christian faith brushed up against fame, power and success. I think it will be a collection of ordinary stuff representing some of the most amazing moments that most of the world never knew took place: a cup of cold water given to a refugee; a meal cooked for a sick neighbor; a handwritten note given to a struggling friend; the first check a family wrote to sponsor an orphan in Myanmar...and a widow's mite. And do you know what that means? That means there's a place for you...in the Generosity Hall of Fame!

The Sports Experience Podcast with Chris Quinn and Dominic DiTolla
Episode 307 of “The Sports Experience Podcast” is here & we're back on the diamond discussing Mark McGwire.“Big Mac” made a splash in Major League Baseball after a successful college career at USC.At 6'5” 220 lbs., the enormous first baseman unanimously won the 1987 American League Rookie of the Year when he clubbed a then-rookie record 49 home runs for the Oakland Athletics.Along with his “Bash Brother” partner, Jose Canseco, McGwire helped lead the A's to three straight AL pennants from 1988-1990 and won a World Series in 1989.Though injuries and the 1994 MLB strike prevented McGwire from producing effectively, his final two and a half seasons in Oakland saw him club 125 home runs before he was traded to the St. Louis Cardinals midway through the 1997 campaign.Yet it was 1998 when McGwire was celebrated as the “Savior of Baseball” after the negative fallout from the 1994 strike.McGwire broke Roger Maris' single-season home run record, and finished 1998 with 70 on the season! He hit another 65 in 1999 and hit a combined 61 in 2000 and 2001 before his retirement.Sadly, these records came at a price. McGwire, thought to be a shoo-in for the Hall of Fame as a 12x All-Star with 583 career home runs, was caught up in the scandal surrounding performance enhancing drug use in MLB during the 1990s and 2000s.McGwire eventually admitted he took steroids during a 2010 interview with Bob Costas, and has been left out of Cooperstown like so many of his contemporaries who made the same choice.Watch, Subscribe & Comment on All Platforms:Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/nz/podcast/the-sports-experience-podcast-with-chris-quinn/id1529622054Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1esgBLz04MZYrTgYMk5DvaConnect with us on Instagram!Chris Quinn: https://www.instagram.com/cquinncomedy/Dominic DiTolla: https://www.instagram.com/ditolladominic/Ty Engle:https://www.instagram.com/ty_englestudio/S.E.P.: https://www.instagram.com/thesportsexperiencepodcast/If you enjoy our podcast, please help support us:https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/the-sports-experience-pod/support#sportspodcast#comedypodcast#markmcgwire#baseball#oaklandathletics#stlouiscardinals#baseballplayer#mlb#baseballhistory
https://teachhoops.com/ Here is a generic take on an interview with a "Hall of Fame Coach AC." When asked what single principle defined his Hall of Fame career, the legendary Coach AC pauses, his gaze steady. "It was never about the X's and O's on the chalkboard; those change with the times. The foundation was always about accountability. I demanded that every player be accountable to the person next to them, both on and off the field. It's about building a culture where the team's standards are more important than any individual's comfort. We didn't build teams; we forged chains, where every link was responsible for the strength of the whole. Talent can win you games, but it's that shared accountability and trust that wins you championships."

Send us a textWelcome back to DMRThis week, we break down Happy Gilmore 2 exclusive to Netflix—a sequel decades in the making that's equal parts nostalgic tribute and overstuffed spectacle. While it brings back familiar faces and some laugh-out-loud moments, the film often feels more focused on cameos than character. Longtime fans may enjoy the nods to the original, but newcomers might be left wondering what all the fuss is about.We explore whether the movie captures the heart and chaos of the 1996 classic, or if it plays too safe with recycled gags and modern distractions. Does it earn its place in the Sandler legacy—or just ride the wave of nostalgia? Tune in for our mostly spoiler-free take on the hits, the misses, and where this sequel lands in the comedy hall of fame.Enjoy - DMRSupport the showThe audio clips used in this podcast, including excerpts from movie/series/documentary trailers, are used under the principles of fair use and fair dealing for the purpose of criticism, commentary, and review.

Jerry Douglas is never not entertaining. On stage, on record, or in conversation, Flux, as Bela Fleck famously dubbed him, is full of wit, joy and inventiveness. His talents have garnered him 16 Grammy Awards, 28 IBMA Awards, 3 Country Music Association Awards, 3 Americana Music Association Awards, an NEA National Heritage Fellowship, and an artist residency at the Country Music Hall Of Fame and Museum. I heard once that his style playing Dobro was so popular that practically every other player emulated it, to the point that he had to reinvent his own style to distinguish himself from the rest of the pack. This story could very well be apocryphal, but it points to the fact that his influence is everywhere in bluegrass and bluegrass-adjacent acoustic music. And Jerry Douglas has stories. Ask him about anyone in bluegrass, or even a ton of artists outside the genre, and chances are that he knows them and can spin a yarn or two about playing with them or being in their orbit. Get him going, and he may even tell you about his ancestor David Douglas, of Douglas fir fame, and the spectacular and mysterious way he met his end in Hawaii.Here, we bring Jerry Douglas back to Southern Songs and Stories for a second time, following his 2021 episode “It's Always Roots Music 12 O'Clock With Jerry Douglas”. Since then, Jerry has been inducted into the International Bluegrass Music Association's Hall of Fame; he has served as festival host and solo performer as well as in his tribute band The Earls Of Leicester for the Earl Scruggs Music Festival, with frequent guest appearances for a number of other artists and bands there; he also fell right back in with Alison Krauss & Union Station for their first album since 2011, Arcadia. Jerry Douglas will be the host once again at the Earl Scruggs Music Festival in late August 2025, where he will perform with the Earls of Leicester as well as Alison Krauss & Union Station, The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, and who knows how many artists as their on stage guest. Recently, he spoke with me on a video call while on tour with AKUS, where he gives us a preview of Scruggs Fest, plus he details a lot of what went into Arcadia. We also find out what he believes is the best key for playing bluegrass music, and learn how he approaches his instrument in Union Station differently than on his own.

We celebrate the “gravity” and the “magnitude” of the moment as Jen Pawol makes history as the first woman to umpire a regular season MLB game. We also put it into the disappointing context that not only is MLB 28 years behind the NBA, but, as Chelsea James notes, we almost had robo-umps before a woman had the gig. Our continuing excellent taste in baseball boyfriends is reinforced as the Heart and Hustle winners are announced, with an 80% NCiB BF showing. The PCA report turns into a vocabulary lesson with Outs Above Average and 5-Star catches. Shea turns batting lead-off into a show and we discover a Correa/Caratini/childhood link. The NYY Old-Timers are looking a little weekend-warrior-ish but we appreciate the effort. Our crosstraining/police blotter/rant is over the dangerous and demeaning throwing of sex toys onto the court at WNBA games. Pottymouth checks in with some old friends in the LMB.

Ageless Athlete - Fireside Chats with Adventure Sports Icons
At 65, Judi Oyama is still lining up at the start gate — not in a “Masters” category, but shoulder-to-shoulder with athletes half, or even a quarter her age. She's a World Champion slalom skateboarder, a Hall of Fame inductee, and a pioneer who's been breaking barriers since she first picked up a board in Santa Cruz in the early 1970s.Back then, women's divisions barely existed. Prize money was unequal. Media crews left during women's finals. Judi skated anyway — pushing through invisibility, injury, and a sport that wasn't built to include her. Five decades later, she's still competing, still winning, and mentoring the next generation of racers who may one day take the sport to the Olympics.In this episode, we talk about:What slalom skateboarding actually is — and why it's so addictiveHow Judi fought for gender and racial equality in skateboardingThe longevity toolkit she's built: CrossFit, heavy lifting, recovery, and smart nutritionWhy representation matters, and how she's mentoring young women in the sportHow to stay competitive, joyful, and relevant in your sport for decadesHer motto: “Be badass every day” — and what it means in practiceWhether you've ever stepped on a skateboard or not, Judi's story is about rewriting the limits others put on you, and replacing them with your own.Follow Judi on Instagram Cover pic
Jose Canseco was one of the most feared sluggers of his era — a Rookie of the Year, MVP, World Series champion, and the first player in MLB history to hit 40 home runs and steal 40 bases in the same season. On paper, his résumé screams “Hall of Fame.” But his career took a turn that forever changed his legacy. In this episode of Kenny The Sports Guy Podcast, I break down Canseco's rise to superstardom, his controversial fall from grace, and the lingering question: Should Jose Canseco actually be in Cooperstown? #MLB #Baseball #JoseCanseco #Athletics #Yankees #BlueJays #Rangers #SportsPodcast
