Between players jumping contracts and entangling themselves in gambling scandals; the lack of a clear, consistent enforcement authority and conference (league) realignments, one could easily confuse current state of the NCAA with the chaotic state of 19th Century baseball.This week, John T. Fortunato joins us to make sense of college sports today. Fortunato is a professor of communications and media management at Fordham University's Gabelli School of Business. His research interests include sports, broadcasting & communication and public relations. He comments on a wide range of topics, including name, image & likeness; the Brendan Sorsby and Darian Mensah controversies, the increasingly toothless NCAA enforcement arm, and whether or not Congress has the power to bring order to the anarchy. Professor Fortunato at FordhamJohn Fortunato, An Ethical Application to Student-Athlete Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL), Journal of Intercollegiate Sport.Errata: The University of Houston played Idaho, not an Ivy League school, in March Madness's first round in 2026 - you'd think a "basketball junkie" would remember that. Wagner beat Maryland-Eastern Shore 78-64 on December 17, 2025, with 350 patrons in attendance. Rose Hill Gym was built in 1925 - it is the oldest Division I gymnasium still in regular use, now that Northeastern University's Matthews Arena is being demolished. Consider supporting Hooks & Runs by purchasing books, including those featured in this episode (if available), through our store at Bookshop.org.

In this week's podcast Phelim gives us a sample of his important piece that was just published in the Wall Street Journal (linked below) about Ireland's descent into antisemitism and how author James Joyce predicted this 100 years ago. We also look at the impact Phelim's story has made and the vile antisemitic abuse he has received.In a related matter you may have seen there were riots in Ireland recently. The truth is Ireland may not like Jews but the elites really like to import head-chopping immigrants. We bring you the list of recent attempted beheadings in Ireland. Yes - that is a real sentence. We also bring the details on how Ireland is learning that Diversity is Not Our Strength. We didn't want to become a podcast about anti-semitism but somehow we're among the few podcasts that expose it. This week we reveal more from the poison Ivy League schools and a Cornell brat who turned down an internship because he's “not interested in working for Jews.” Our elite universities are fostering the ignorant as well as the bigoted as one crazy headline reveals an illiteracy problem at Berkeley! And so-called documentary film maker Josh Fox is lying again - of course he is. You knew him from lying about fracking (he's the liar behind the fake documentary GasLand). Guess what his latest cause is now. This week we ask: why is HBO allowing such obvious lies to go out on air? (Because they hate America?) Speaking of fiction disguised as fact, NPR's Fake News show All Things Considered does it again. This time they allowed a contributor to state, unchallenged, that America has not changed or improved since the racial segregation of the 60s. It seems on NPR you can lie about anything as long as you blame Trump. This week we bring you more crazy headlines courtesy of Crazy Canada. Watch this week to see where trillionaire envy meets “respectable” news. Elon Musk Derangement Syndrome is a real thing.And more, much more than this. Last weekend we saw our friend - the amazing Robert Davi - sing the great American Song Book in Los Angeles. Robert is multi-talented. You might know him as an actor from movies such as Die Hard and The Goonies. Of course he was the wonderful Director on the My Son Hunter movie - exposing the corruption of the Biden crime family. You can see the full My Son Hunter movie through the link below. And on the show we have a sample of his wonderful show.

When it comes to the path from education to financial security, the "golden ticket" narrative we grew up with is showing significant cracks. Today, students who work hard and play by the rules find themselves facing a steep experiential paradox: entry-level job listings frequently require multiple years of prior work history, yet securing a competitive, paid internship during college has become arguably more selective than gaining admission to an Ivy League university. This structural failure leaves massive pools of early career talent stranded, widening inequalities across the socioeconomic spectrum.In this episode, we sit down with Jane Swift, CEO of Education at Work and former Governor of Massachusetts, to dissect the friction points spanning K-12, higher education, and the workforce. Drawing from her historical role in crafting Massachusetts' legendary 1993 Education Reform Act and her current appointment to the National Assessment Governing Board, Jane brings unmatched policy expertise to the table. We discuss why state education metrics were sliding long before the pandemic hit, the hidden societal headwinds impacting the adolescent brain, and why wealthy families find alternative academic safety valves while low-income and first-generation students are left behind.Finally, we turn our attention toward actionable solutions for the future of work-based learning. Jane shares how Education at Work is successfully building an instructional workflow layer that partners with Fortune 500 giants to scale paid corporate roles for thousands of students. She also lays out a provocative blueprint for the future: reimagining rigid public funding models and forcing higher education institutions to leverage their massive institutional procurement power to mandate paid career opportunities for the very students they serve. Tune in for an honest, deeply experienced look at what it takes to rebuild the system from the ground up.

What if the very institutions designed to educate and empower were also places where harm could quietly thriveIn this powerful and eye-opening episode, I sit down with Julie Cruse—writer, inventor, instructional designer, and author of The Burn List: A Memoir of Abuse from Home to Higher Education. Julie has been recognized by Dance Magazine as a “pioneer of computational choreography,” and her work spans over two decades across Ivy League, public, and community colleges. With more than 30 grants and honors, including a National Science Foundation fellowship, her accomplishments are remarkable—but her story is also deeply sobering.Julie courageously shares her journey from an abusive childhood into a prolonged experience of academic exploitation. Across seven universities, she faced grooming, harassment, and retaliation from faculty—experiences that ultimately forced her out of her PhD program and academic career.What Is Academic Abuse?Academic abuse is often hidden in plain sight. It can include:Grooming and manipulation by those in positions of authorityHarassment and coercionRetaliation when boundaries are set or complaints are madeDespite protections like Title IX and Civil Rights Act of 1964 (Title VII), these issues persist—making awareness and advocacy more important than ever.Key Takeaways from This Episode✨ Why some students are more vulnerable Julie explains how factors like isolation, power imbalance, and a desire to succeed can make students easier targets.✨ How to protect yourself Practical, empowering advice including:Set clear boundariesAvoid being alone with faculty in private settingsKeep detailed records of interactions (dates, times, events)✨ What to do if harassment occurs There is often a required process and hierarchy of reporting. Understanding the steps ahead of time can help you navigate the system more effectively.✨ Why this conversation matters Silence allows abuse to continue. Open conversations help validate survivors, create accountability, and drive change.A Safe Place to Be HeardJulie has created a survivor-led platform at Academic Abuse where individuals can:Share their stories in a safe, supportive environmentAccess resources for healingResearch documented cases of abuse at specific universitiesIf you or someone you know has experienced discrimination or abuse in higher education, this platform offers both validation and support.Connect with JulieWebsite: Julie Cruse official website https://www.juliecruse.com/Advocacy Platform: Academic Abuse https://www.academicabuse.com/  Final ThoughtsThis episode is a courageous step toward shining light on a difficult but critical issue.

Illinois basketball's non-conference schedule continued to take shape as the Fighting Illini added matchups against in-state foe Eastern Illinois and Ivy League contender Penn. The games provide Brad Underwood's squad with opportunities to build its résumé while giving fans a closer look at another highly anticipated Illinois roster. In Major League Baseball, trade deadline speculation heats up as the Cardinals weigh whether starting pitcher Dustin May could become one of the most coveted arms on the market. After another dominant outing against San Diego, the question becomes whether St. Louis views May as a key piece of a playoff push or a valuable trade asset. Meanwhile, the Cubs face a similar dilemma with Seiya Suzuki. Despite Chicago's recent surge, Suzuki's bat could attract significant interest from contenders if the front office decides to capitalize on his value before the deadline. The hour wrapped up with a spirited Tuesday Draft as the crew selected The Best Smells of All Time, featuring favorites ranging from fresh-cut grass and movie theater popcorn to bacon, campfires, and the smell of rain after a summer storm.

He got into TWO Ivy League schools — and qualified for $0 financial aid. Then his income dropped from $290K to $75K. Here's how the appeal really works. Andy and Pearl Lockwood break down a real financial aid appeal happening right now: a self-employed dad whose 2024 tax return said "too rich for aid," whose actual income collapsed to $75K — and why both Ivy League financial aid offices refused to budge until they saw proof. If you're self-employed and assume you'll never qualify for college financial aid, this episode is for you.

This week Matt connects two stories most of the press is filing as background noise. First, a brand-new Fed chair just took the oath, the old chair never actually left, and the smart money is already positioned for a move nobody at the podium will admit out loud. Then, our biggest foreign lenders are quietly walking away from the table after 40 years of bankrolling America — and that's the single biggest threat to the equity in your home right now. Matt walks through the playbook, the receipts from JP Morgan's private bank, and the regular-person version of the move the family offices and Ivy League endowments already made.

This episode is rated a 5 (on my Campus Crime Scale).On a frigid February night in 2015, Monroe County deputies responded to a quiet, upscale neighborhood just outside Rochester, New York. Inside one of the homes, they discovered a shocking scene: a man had been brutally shot and killed.But before investigators even had a chance to piece together what happened, someone stepped forward and confessed. Nineteen-year-old Charlie Tan, an Ivy League student with no criminal history, immediately admitted that he had pulled the trigger. He told authorities that he HAD to shoot his father to protect his mother from years of domestic abuse.At first glance, the case seemed straightforward. Charlie confessed. His father was dead. The evidence appeared clear.But as investigators dug deeper, they uncovered a story far more complicated than anyone could have imagined — one that would divide a community, raise questions about justice, and force many to ask whether Charlie Tan was a cold-blooded killer... or a son who believed he had no other choice.Listen now to hear the full story.

Luke 6:12-16 | Who gets picked first for the sports game? The best athlete. Who wins first chair in the band? The most gifted musician? Who gets accepted into Ivy League schools? The brightest. Who wins the lead role in the musical? The most talented singer. We are used to being chosen based on merit and resume. As Jesus chose the twelve and called them to him as apostles, his process looked much different. Let's look together at the calling of the twelve by the praying, grace-giving Savior.

Mo catches up with old friend Tamara Mosly who took over her mother's 38-year-old business: Fantasy Party. What began as a family venture has evolved into one of Saudi Arabia's most recognisable local brands, bringing joy to generations of children through events, gifts, toys, costumes, and celebrations. Tamara reflects on her mother's legacy of building and growing the business during a very different era in Saudi Arabia, in an industry that was once viewed rather unconventional. Together, Mo and Tamara explore the responsibilities of parenthood, the realities of burnout, and the ongoing journey of finding purpose, fulfillment, and joy in an ever-evolving world. 0:00 Intro3:16 Facing Tradition as Women in Business5:37 Lessons from a Strong Mother7:43 Growing Up Saudi & Lebanese9:41 School, Rebellion & Street Smarts12:02 Applying to the Ivy League… and Getting Rejected14:00 Growing Up Inside the Family Business15:37 The Golden Era of Children's Parties20:02 Returning to Saudi Arabia During Vision 203021:27 Building the F1 Jeddah Guest Experience22:26 Bringing the British Museum to Madinah24:00 Witnessing Saudi Arabia's Transformation Firsthand25:04 Training 300 Saudi Drivers for Formula 128:13 Why Saudi Teams Outperformed Expectations32:19 From Formula 1 to the Red Sea Film Festival34:42 Miscarriage, Burnout & Pushing Through41:24 Motherhood, Work & Hidden Struggles43:32 Saudi Arabia: Then vs. Now48:39 How E-Commerce Nearly Killed a 38-Year Legacy53:06 Taking Over the Family Business56:00 Choosing Gratitude Over Success58:27 Loss, Aging & Staying Connected1:02:06 Health, Motherhood & Losing Yourself1:04:13 The Truth About Work-Life Balance1:08:06 Guilty Pleasures1:10:12 The Dream She Had to Let Go Of1:15:21 Confidence, Emotions & Feeling Understood1:18:45 Final Reflections 

A Portfolio Checklist Extra adásában hatodik alkalommal beszélgetünk az amerikai felsőoktatás elitjébe tartozó Borostyán Ligába, angolul Ivy League-be tartozó egyetemek magyar diákjaival. Hallgatóink a harvardos Kovács Ferenc Somát és a yale-es Szepesi Mórt már jól ismerhetik, a csapat azonban bővült: a mai műsorban csatlakozott hozzájuk a University of Pennsylvania egyetemről Madár Gergely is.

Welcome to the latest episode of Lunch with Shelley with our superstar special guest Congresswoman Elise Stefanik.  Elise proudly represents New York's 21st District and is the most senior elected Republican in New York. She is also the author of the number one best seller “Poisoned Ivies",  which is an incredible read that I highly recommend! Elise made history as the youngest woman ever elected to Congress, and she is the youngest woman in history to serve in top elected House leadership, as well as the highest-ranking woman in Congress in her role as House Republican Conference Chair.  She also serves as a senior Member of the House Armed Services Committee, the Committee on Education and the Workforce, the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, and she was a founding Member of the China Task Force. Elise is widely recognized as one of the most effective questioners in Congressional hearings, most notably when she set off a global reckoning addressing antisemitism in higher education. Her questions to Ivy League university presidents forced multiple resignations and set the record for the most viewed Congressional testimony in history, with billions of views worldwide. Because of this strong moral leadership and her extensive policy record, Elise Stefanik is an internationally recognized leader in combating antisemitism. Join us at the delicious and healthy Ama restaurant in the Navy Yard as we discuss how Elise became interested in politics, her run for Congress, her experiences as an undergrad at Harvard, the infamous hearing watched around the world, what she does to relax, what might be next for her in her career, and much much more! Check us out at www.lunchwithshelley.com or wherever you get your favorite podcast, and in the meantime Peace, Love and Lunch!

How can you be strong in your faith? When you consider religion and various beliefs, how can we know anything is the truth? What is belief anyway and how can we know that something is true? Might it be irrational to believe in a God or Higher Power? Lisa continues the conversation today with NYT bestselling author Eldon Taylor, Ph.D., who examines these ideas and more. He talks about how there are good people everywhere, who cross all barriers – whether they reject organized religion and spirituality or not.   Eldon talks about how what you believe can, and does, have a huge impact on the quality of your life — from success in business to success in relationships, from your ability to learn and master new subjects to your ability to heal your own body. In his latest book, "Questioning Spirituality," he deeply considers the idea of a God and/or Higher Power and how it seems our institutions of higher learning tend to go against this idea. An intellectual elitism exists in which students, and professors, may think that although it's comforting to consider believing in a God, it's simply not rational.  The idea for his latest book started after numerous conversations with Eldon's college-aged sons, both of whom were studying away at Ivy League schools. Although they grew up with a strong sense of faith, they returned home from university as atheists.  Students are taught critical thinking in college. This naturally leads to the questioning of religion. Is it possible to be both a critical thinker and hold belief in a Higher Power? Eldon presents both sides of the argument – and proposes that it's not at all irrational to believe.   Eldon Taylor has been researching the power of the mind for the past 25 years and is considered to be an expert in the areas of hypnosis and subliminal communication. For more than ten years, Eldon specialized in criminalistics, where he supervised and conducted investigations and testing to detect deception. Today, Eldon is President and Director of Progressive Awareness Research, Inc. He has developed and patented the InnerTalk technology, which has been demonstrated by numerous universities to be effective. Eldon is an award-winning, NYT best-selling author of more than 300 books, and audio and video programs.  Info: eldontaylor.com.  This is Part 2 of the interview.

In this episode, I sit down with Nate Cole, recruiting coordinator and pitching coach at Harvard University, to talk about what it actually takes to play baseball at one of the most selective schools in the country.Nate walks through Harvard's recruiting process, what they look for academically, how they evaluate players beyond stats and rankings, and why being a great student alone is not enough to play at the Division 1 level.We also get into the development side of Harvard baseball, including how Nate works with pitchers, how they use technology and data, why some players need more simplicity instead of more information, and what separates players who succeed at the college level.This conversation is especially valuable for players and families who want to understand the balance between academics, baseball ability, work ethic, and finding the right fit in the recruiting process.Topics Covered: What Harvard looks for in baseball recruits How academics filter the recruiting process Why GPA, SATs, and AP classes matter The importance of challenging yourself early in high school How Harvard evaluates players in person Why Harvard recruits nationally for small classes What families misunderstand about Ivy League recruiting Why being “an Ivy League kid” is not specific enough The type of player Harvard baseball wants Why players need to be self-driven How Nate develops pitchers at Harvard Using technology, data, and video in player development Why some players overthink and need to simplify The role of passion, work ethic, and love for baseball How baseball can open academic opportunities The biggest mistakes families make in recruiting Why fit matters more than logos, rankings, or scholarshipsFollow Nate Cole: X: https://x.com/NateCole33Check Out Patrick's Stuff:•

In 2024, the Atlantic ran a splashy feature titled "The Elite College Students Who Can't Read Books." Professors at the Ivy League and at other elite universities reported that their students, among the most credentialed young people in the country, could no longer make their way through a whole book. One Columbia professor described his bewilderment when a student told him she had never once been assigned a full book in high school. At Tikvah we work with hundreds of educators, and they have observed that it's not only the skill of reading that is in decline; it's also the culture around reading, the patience and attention and habits of the mind that really important books demand. That is where Rabbi Mark Gottlieb begins the conversation you are about to hear. Rabbi Gottlieb has been a guest on the Tikvah Podcast before. He is a senior adviser and treasured colleague at Tikvah, and the head of school at the Dr. Miriam and Sheldon G. Adelson School in Las Vegas, Nevada. At the most recent Marom conference, the annual Tikvah gathering of Jewish day-school leaders, he sat down with Shilo Brooks for a session called "A Republic of Readers: Why Great Books Make Good Citizens." Dr. Brooks runs the George W. Bush Presidential Center and hosts the Free Press podcast Old School. He is also living proof of the stakes. As he tells it, the great books did not merely educate him. They saved his life. Tikvah does not want simply want to air complaints about how the culture of reading has eroded, but to do something about it. This summer, Tikvah Online Academy is running a series of book-clubs for rising sixth, seventh, and eighth graders, live over Zoom. They will tackle The Hobbit, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, The Phantom Tollbooth, Tom Sawyer, The Life of Frederick Douglass, and more. Applications are open now at Tikvah.org/TOA.

 In today's hard-hitting episode, Patrick steps into the anchor chair to rip back the curtain on a system where nothing is as it seems. We break down the staggering logistical discrepancies between states like Florida—which counts over 11 million votes in a matter of hours—and California, where hundreds of thousands of mail-in ballots linger for days until the establishment's preferred candidates mysteriously edge ahead. Looking closely at real-time local data and anomalous statistical jumps in the Los Angeles mayoral track, Patrick exposes why the modern election cycle increasingly feels like a coordinated illusion managed by a specialized class rather than a true reflection of the people's will. From the West Coast to a controversial Democratic primary in New Jersey, we ask the critical question: Are our representatives being elected by American citizens, or selected by the state?The capture of American institutions goes far deeper than a rigged ballot box. Patrick dives into the shocking backgrounds of political figures rising through local and national ranks, spotlighting jaw-dropping connections to convicted terror financiers and radical activists who openly call for dismantling the United States government on our own soil. We connect the dots to show how this ideological shift aligns perfectly with a top-down war on the traditional nuclear family. From the floor of the New York City Council to radicalized Ivy League campuses, the assault is multi-pronged: outlawing foundational words like "mother" and "father" on government documentation while replacing them with cold, bureaucratic terms designed to strip away our shared heritage and identity.Joining the show is independent consultant James McAndrew to dissect what Joe Rogan and Theo Von recently exposed: a powerful, unelected "third group" that has quietly infiltrated both major political parties to dictate national policy from the shadows. Together, Patrick and James break down how big tech censorship, calculated media infighting, and the deliberate demoralization of our education system work in tandem to keep the public distracted and divided. If America is the "fascist dictatorship" that radicalized students claim it is, why are millions risking everything to cross our borders for a shot at the American Dream? It's time to stop falling for the distraction, face the blatant truth of how we are being managed, and reclaim the country before the illusion becomes our permanent reality.

Jack Kelly has been making waves in the pool since graduating from Brown University last year. The 3x NCAA finalist in the breaststroke events decided he would give pro swimming a go and moved to Austin to train with Bob Bowman. Since making the move, Kelly has progressed immensely, not only going best times in all 3 breaststroke distances, but showing a ton of consistency throughout the last year. He broke the 1:00 barrier for the first time in December, but has since dipped under it on 6 different occasions. He's also been under the 27-second barrier in the 50 breast twice and the 2:10 barrier once in the 200. He's qualified to swim all 3 events at the European championships in August. Kelly discusses what it's been like training with Bowman, racing in the Ivy League, and being a lifelong New York Knicks fan.

Are elite universities hiding something darker beneath the surface?In this episode of Slingshot Nation Live, Tony, Derek, and Jack dig into the strange overlap between Ivy League schools, occult history, secret societies, witchcraft courses, forbidden magic collections, and the possibility of underground mystery schools operating inside America's most prestigious institutions.From Harvard's divination and prophecy course to Yale's occult archives, Skull and Bones, Scroll and Key, Wolf's Head, alchemy manuscripts, secret societies, witch covens, portal lore, and even stories of werewolf spirits connected to Ivy League academia, this conversation asks a wild but important question: are these universities simply preserving history, or are they gateways into something much deeper?The discussion also connects pop culture shows like The Order, Wednesday, and other witchcraft-driven stories to real-world patterns involving elite schools, occult symbolism, spiritual warfare, and the war between the seen and unseen.Is the Ivy League just education, or is it also a front for hidden occult networks, secret rituals, and modern mystery schools?Please pray for Tony's wife, Lindsay, as she battles breast cancer.
