Podcast appearances and mentions of john gunning

Four years ago friendships were formed as ⁠Zach Keilman⁠, ⁠Greg St. James⁠, and John Gunning of ⁠Inside Sport Japan⁠, sat down for the first episode of our podcast, which has now expanded to a website and livestream providing original coverage of the gridiron game in Japan. Since the first episode we have grown as a team with B.J. and then Aaron joining, and through it all the six of us have enjoyed plenty of laughs, smiles and candid opinions about Japan, gridiron football, and of course, the Chicago Bears! For the reason why we do this and enjoy doing it is simply this- because of the friendship and comradery that football brings :-).

John Gunning, BJ Beatty, and Greg James return for the third season of the Gridiron Japan podcast to preview the upcoming 2023 season of the X-League Super. The three discuss the probable and likely results, as well as the possible upsets, along with talk about the new and returning players from America.

In this episode, John, B.J. and Greg sit down with Texan Colton Runyan, a member of Club Bears of X-3 football and former player in Tokyo's Urban Football League. Colton also is a former player in the United Kingdom with Cambridge University and the Cambridgeshire Cats of the British American Football Association. In addition to his football career, Colton is also a trained sumo wrestler whom our own John Gunning has come to know while reporting on his training and career for the Japan Times. Colton is currently pursuing a doctorate from Cambridge University, with his research focus being that of premodern sumo wrestling. The four also review the games of Week 2 in Super X-League play, with B.J. providing the type of insight on the week that was, which only a former player and now college coach can provide. "Sumo makes its way to Cambridge" From the Japan Times, by John Gunning

A perfect football conversation to kick off the official start of autumn! Aaron Ellis, the starting quarterback of the Dentsu Caterpillars joins John Gunning (of Inside Sport Japan and The Japan Times), X-League legend B.J. Beatty, and football historian Greg James in a freewheeling conversation about his college career at the University of St. Francis in Joliet, Illinois; and in the Austrian Football League and European League of Football. We talk about his recent games in which he has passed for a total of five touchdowns and his experiences as a newcomer to Japan. We then talk about the Japanese college game and the dominance of the Kwansei Gakuin University Fighters.

For the new season of the Gridiron Japan podcast, Greg James and John Gunning are joined by former Obic Seagull linebacker B.J. Beatty to talk about last year's Rice Bowl championship and review the off season moves of the X-League. We review the first week of the Super X-League and talk about the top players making waves on the field. We then take a look at the current players from Japan playing in Canada and Europe, talk about the expansion of the league, and provide predictions for week two of the Super division of X-League competition.

X1 Super Week 2 wrapped up with some close calls for top teams that left the crew a tad surprised. Greg James subs in for John Gunning this week as he and Zach cover what made Panasonic and Fujitsu avoid the upsets in Week 2. The duo also give their impressions on X1 Area Week 3 action, and make their X1 Super Week 3 predictions (with some potential surprises) in this loaded new episode of Gridiron Japan!

The GSB guys finally have a chance to confront their dastardly nemesis and se what he has to say for himself. Theme music by David Hall via SoundCloud

Jasmine Harrison joins Sportshour to reflect on making history as the youngest woman to row solo across the Atlantic Ocean. The 21-year-old completed the trip from the Canary Islands to the Caribbean in 70 days, 3 hours and 48 minutes. She tells us about capsizing twice, a close encounter with a drilling ship, being at one with nature and how she burnt her hand at the end of her journey. United States Olympic Gold medal winning ice hockey player Hilary Knight tells us about playing in the first Women's professional game to be held at New York's famed Madison Square Garden. She also discusses the difficulties of making a living in the sport and looks ahead to next year’s Winter Olympics. Brendan Lawlor discusses his hopes of becoming the 'Tiger Woods of disability golf' and how he wants to set up a disability golf tour. The 23 year-old made history by becoming the first disabled golfer to play on the European Tour. He was born with a hole in his heart as well as the rare limb-limiting condition Ellis-van Creveld Syndrome, which means he stands at 4ft 11in. John Gunning of the Japan Times tells us about the impact of the covid-19 pandemic on amateur sumo wrestling, and how the first national “Sumo Technique Tournament” is helping to plug the gap. Children and sumo clubs across Japan were invited to submit video entries in categories including: Japan’s most beautiful shiko (foot stomp) and Japan’s best “Air Sumo”, which sees one person battle an imaginary opponent. We get the latest from day three of the final Test between India and England in Ahmedabad, and the BBC’s Juliette Ferrington looks ahead to the early game in the Premier League, as Burnley host Arsenal.

Alyssa Nakken on making history in Major League Baseball. San Francisco Giants assistant coach Alyssa Nakken joins us to reflect on becoming the first woman to coach on field in an MLB game. She coached first base during this week’s exhibition against the Oakland A’s and tells us she’s grateful for the opportunity but “it’s not like we won a World Series”. Nakken also says she doesn’t feel she’s looked at any differently at the club because she’s a woman. Nakken reveals her “insecurities” lie more with the fact she hasn’t had much experience of “big league level”. The president of the NWSL expansion team set for Los Angeles in 2022 - Julie Uhrman – on the hype around her new club. Uhrman tells us about the club partnering with LA84, being inspired by the City Football Group, attracting players to Los Angeles and the fact her club will allow their players to protest about social issues. Uhrman says: “This started by having a deep interest in pay equity. When something is happening in the world that we are not pleased about they should be able to use their platform in the same way that we should be able to use our platform.” No Olympics in Tokyo but Sumo Wrestling is back – We speak to John Gunning from the Japan Times about the return of sumo amidst the coronavirus pandemic. July’s Grand Tournament was moved from Nagoya to the capital to limit travel during the pandemic. “It’s an understanding that is deeply bonded.” - Lisa Butler and Rachel Levey from Paradise City Dragons discuss how being part of a dragon boat crew has helped them come to terms with living with breast cancer.

A film about the team of cancer survivors and supporters from Western Massachusetts is in the running for an award at the PBS Short Film Festival. The Karate champion with the world's smallest pacemaker - Mairi Kerin joins us after she was fitted with the latest version of the world's smallest pacemaker. The three-time World Championship competitor and 2020 Olympic hopeful says the vitamin pill sized device has saved her martial arts career. She had to be fitted with a pacemaker after visiting her doctor after she fainted and says she was shocked to be told she had a problem with her heart. This week’s Sporting Witness goes back to 2010 to chart the story of the Afghanistan men's cricket team. Their journey from the refugee camps of Pakistan to the International stage is one of cricket’s most remarkable stories. Afghan batsman Raees Ahmadzai tells us all about it.
