Episode 301 | "Show Me What You're About, Coach" It's official visit season and we're bringing you behind the scenes! Cedric "Swerve" Irvin joins Jason Strayhorn and Slow Sipper for a real, unfiltered conversation about what it's like to have a son going through the college recruiting process — and the six questions every recruit NEEDS to ask on an official visit. Amari Irvin is heading to East Lansing, and Dad has thoughts. We also break down Jeremy Fears Jr.'s impressive showing at the NBA Combine and whether he should stay in the draft or come back to Michigan State. The Detroit Pistons crashed out in Game 7 at home — we get into the fallout, JB Bickerstaff's controversial press conference, and what Detroit needs to do this offseason to build around Cade Cunningham. On the college football side, MSU fans are buzzing after the $401M Spartan Ventures announcement — but is the money actually available yet? We talk expectations for Jonathan Smith's first full season, the NIL arms race across the Big Ten, and what Indiana's rise should teach us all. Plus, we pay tribute to Michigan State legend Sherman Lewis — the highest Heisman vote-getter in MSU history and a 4x Super Bowl champion coach — who passed away this week. A true trailblazer and a great man.

In 2005, LEGO Star Wars: The Video Game arrived on shelves seven weeks before the film it was partly based on, built by a studio working out of a cottage in the English countryside, and rejected by three major publishers before anyone agreed to sell it. In this episode, we go back further than the game itself, tracing the story of Ole Kirk Christiansen, the Danish carpenter who built one of the most recognizable objects in human history from a woodworking shop in a town with one sidewalk, and whose brick survived fires, depression, and a company that nearly destroyed itself trying to be everything at once. We follow Tom Stone putting his house on the line to rescue a shelved project, Jonathan Smith and Traveller's Tales building levels around a film they weren't allowed to see, and the decision to remove all dialogue that turned out to be the game's secret weapon. Join us for the story behind the brick, the galaxy far far away, and the studio that refused to take no for an answer, on today's trip down Memory Card Lane.Read transcript

The grievance season is officially open!

This interview features Dr. Jonathan Smith, who discusses the launch of a new, mission‑driven health center under Mercer University focused on providing comprehensive, integrated care for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD) in Georgia. Dr. Smith explains that the center aims to address longstanding health disparities through coordinated, under‑one‑roof services—including primary care, behavioral health, therapies, dentistry, pharmacy, and diagnostics—while also serving as an educational hub to better train medical students and community clinicians in IDD care. Influenced by both his medical background and his personal experience as a parent of a child with Down syndrome, Dr. Smith emphasizes three key priorities for improving outcomes for people with IDD: stronger coordination of care across systems, reducing barriers within insurance and waiver programs, and reforming medical education to include IDD care earlier and more meaningfully, with the ultimate goal of improving health equity, patient experience, and long‑term outcomes. https://medicine.mercer.edu/idd-care/

Powering Michigan's Transition: How LEO is Shaping the Future of Work and IndustryWe sit down with Jonathan Smith, Senior Chief Deputy Director at the Michigan Department of Labor and Economic Opportunity (LEO) and explore how Michigan is navigating one of the most significant economic transitions in its history. Jonathan leads the Community and Worker Economic Transition Office, with a focus on helping workers, communities, and businesses adapt to major industry shifts—from energy evolution to the transformation of the automotive sector. He discusses building long-term economic resilience through workforce development, strategic community planning, and strengthening industrial competitiveness.

London Fire Brigade protects one of the most complex urban environments on the planet. The resident population of London sits at around 9 million people, but that number is misleading. On a typical weekday, when commuters, tourists, and transient populations are added in, the number of people moving through the city regularly swells to 11 to 12 million, sometimes more during major events or peak travel periods.Around a quarter of all fire and rescue service calls in the UK come into London. Around 70% of the UK's high rise residential stock sits within the M25. This is not just a big fire brigade. It's a service operating at global city scale, with global city risk.In this episode, I sit down with Jonathan Smith, Commissioner of London Fire Brigade, to talk honestly about what it takes to lead a service like that in today's operating environment.We start with Jonathan's journey into the fire service, from training and operational life through promotion and leadership, but this is not a career timeline conversation. It's a working discussion about responsibility, decision making, and pressure at scale.We talk about training and professional standards, what was lost after the early 2000s, and what it really means to professionalise a modern fire service. We explore high rise firefighting in London, lessons learned from Grenfell, and how evacuation, control, and operational command have fundamentally changed over the last decade.This conversation deliberately looks beyond a single service or even a single country. We frame London alongside other global cities like New York, Paris, and Tokyo, because the risks London faces don't stop at national borders. Climate change, lithium battery fires, terrorism, urban density, and geopolitical tension all show up on the streets of this city, and the fire service has to be ready for that reality.We also talk culture, not as a buzzword, but as lived behaviour. Leadership, accountability, psychological safety, and what it actually takes to create an organisation where people can do their best work without fear or silence. And finally, we zoom in on the personal cost of leadership, resilience, and how you stay grounded when the stakes are this high.This is a grounded, boots on the ground conversation about the future of firefighting, leadership in complex systems, and how our profession can continue to shape its own destiny. Access all episodes, documents, GIVEAWAYS & debriefs HEREPodcast Apparel, Hoodies, Flags, Mugs HERE our partners supporting this episode.GORE-TEX Professional ClothingFIRST TACTICAL- tactical gear for elite operatorsMSA The Safety CompanyJAFCOIDEXFIRE & EVACUATION SERVICE LTD Send a textSupport the show***The views expressed in this episode are those of the individual speakers.

Is the U.S. Postal Service being set up to fail? In this episode of the America's Work Force Union Podcast, we sit down with Jonathan Smith, the new President of the American Postal Workers Union (APWU). Smith, a second-generation postal worker who rose through the ranks from a New Jersey bulk mail center, pulls back the curtain on the "pseudo-privatization" strategies threatening one of America's most trusted public institutions. We dive deep into: The Privatization Playbook: How profitable mail operations are being siphoned off to private interests, leaving the public with the bill. The Staffing Crisis: Why those long lines at your local post office aren't an accident—they are a service issue rooted in understaffing. Vote-by-Mail Under Fire: Why protecting the mail-in ballot is a nonpartisan, constitutional necessity for rural communities, veterans, and seniors. Labor's Legacy: A look back at the 1970 Postal Strike and why a new generation of workers must organize to protect middle-class, blue-collar pathways. The Postal Service is more than just a delivery business; it's a public obligation. Join us as President Smith outlines the APWU's mission to ensure the USPS remains a prompt, efficient and universal service for every American.

Every day is filled with negotiations. Here's how to start winning them. Any conversation that has a want or a need is a negotiation. It's critical to approach even the low stakes negotiations with the same tools that will win high stakes conversations. But what if the key to better outcomes isn't pushing harder, but listening better? In today's episode of Hello Monday, Jessi Hempel sits down with Jonathan Smith, negotiation instructor and co-author of Fight Less, Win More, to break down why negotiation is really about empathy, trust, and disciplined listening. Drawing on The Black Swan Group's negotiation framework—made famous by Never Split the Difference—Jonathan shares practical tools for navigating conflict, building influence, and getting what you need without damaging relationships. Jonathan is a business strategist and negotiation expert who has spent years teaching leaders, managers, and teams how to communicate in moments that matter most. His work focuses on tactical empathy, emotional intelligence, and the everyday negotiations that shape our careers and lives. Jonathan and Jessi discuss: Why every difficult conversation is a negotiation Tactical empathy and how to help people feel truly heard The “core four” negotiation skills: labels, mirrors, dynamic silence, and summaries How low-stakes practice builds confidence for high-stakes conversations Managing tone, emotion, and self-regulation  Why listening is a discipline—and how it improves trust and influence Using AI as a preparation tool without losing human connection If you want to go deeper on these tools listen to our episode from September, 2025 with The Black Swan Group's founder and CEO, Chris Voss.  Watch on YouTube: https://bit.ly/chrisvoss-hm-youtube  Listen on Apple: https://bit.ly/chrisvoss-hm-apple  Watch/Listen on Spotify: https://bit.ly/chrisvoss-hm-spotify We will be launching the Hello Monday Book Club soon.

For years, the narrative in Canada was slow decline, polite disengagement and post-Christian skepticism. But that's not the story they're living right now. There are people from every background actually exploring faith and showing up at church. What's going on in Canada? We're doing something a little different in this episode of the podcast. Sean and Amy invited our Canadian consultants, Jonathan Smith and Drake Farmer, to introduce themselves and talk about what they're seeing in the "big C" church in Canada. In this episode, we have a conversation about the real spiritual hunger emerging across Canada, how a strong invitational culture and posture of hospitality are becoming the new front door and what to be ready with when your growth is outpacing your resources.   This Episode is Sponsored by Tyndale: As ministry leaders, you are walking with people through anxiety, grief, conflict, and big questions every week.

Let's start with the juicy but sad breakup of Notre Dame and USC, move to the coaching carousel, and then have some fun. A rough listing of the questions featured in this episode, in order:* What's actually going on with Notre Dame and USC breaking up their football rivalry, and whose fault is it?* What is Michigan's realistic play in the coaching carousel, and who could they actually hire?* Is Michigan likely to have a coach in place by the bowl game, or is that assumption wrong?* Is a bridge coach (specifically Biff Poggi) a viable or sensible option for Michigan?* Kyle Whittingham vs. Brian Kelly: Who is the better “CEO” head coach?* With so many Power 4 openings, is the best path to a top job now being a successful P4 coordinator?* What happened at Ohio, how should they move forward, and why did they handle it better than Michigan?* Why does Warde Manuel still have a job (pending investigation)?* Is Pat Fitzgerald possibly a worse pure football coach than Jonathan Smith but better positioned because of NIL and donor buy-in? Is “coach who can unlock donor money” now a core hiring archetype?* Will Michigan State's new $400 million donation allow them to immediately spend big on the roster?* What are agency “speed-dating” events for coaches and athletic directors?* Does the modern college football calendar make it harder for FCS programs to reset or fire coaches?* Will the calendar lead to more long-tenured FCS coaches staying put at big programs?* What are the chances Ed Orgeron resurfaces on LSU's staff?* Why didn't Dan Mullen come up for any of the open head coaching jobs?* What's really wrong at Florida State beyond portal hits and misses?* If an AD tried to reverse-engineer Curt Cignetti, what traits would they be looking for?* What goes on your CFB trip bucket list?* New York or LA: The better CFB city?* Why do national college football narratives so often default to NY/LA logic when the sport itself doesn't?* What are our goals for this podcast in 2026?Thank you so much for being part of what we do. We'll see you around New Year's Eve to get you set for the CFP quarterfinals and FCS title game.Producer: Anthony Vito

This episode takes you through Richard's day of reporting. Alex joins him to discuss a bunch of moves: * Lane Kiffin heads to LSU, and Ole Miss replaces him swiftly with the internal succession option we talked about a few weeks ago: Pete Golding * The argument between Kiffin and Ole Miss at the end, Kiffin's efforts to own the narrative, and how much of this is his doing vs. the calendar's * Florida hires Jon Sumrall, who's technically a consolation prize but brings a lot more to the table than many Florida fans realize * Auburn, after weeks of pursuing Sumrall, winds up not with DJ Durkin but with Alex Golesh. But did Durkin play a role in how it shook out? * Arkansas gets Ryan Silverfield, angering Hogs fans but not Memphis fans* Michigan State fires Jonathan Smith and moves quickly to replace him with Pat Fitzgerald, in a sequence that looks like a set piece * Recapping some hires at Oklahoma State, Stanford, Colorado State, and Oregon State, while other jobs wait to be filled * Penn State's search is quieter than a whisper, but it's getting down to two options: Hire a coordinator, or take a big swing on a mystery man.

The Lane Kiffin saga has finally come to a conclusion and it was the messiest version possible. After weeks of proposed "deadlines", meetings and delays, a conclusion has finally been reached. Lane Kiffin has officially left Ole Miss to be the head coach for LSU. Part of the hold-up was that Kiffin wanted to remain Ole Miss' head coach through the College Football Playoff. Ole Miss refused that request. Kiffin is now in Baton Rouge and Pete Golding has been promoted to become Ole Miss' new head coach. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey breakdown how the final few days of the saga played out. They discuss what they expect from Ole Miss under Golding and if Kiffin should have been allowed to coach the Playoff.Lane Kiffin was not the only coaching change that happened on Sunday. In fact, he was one of many. The coaching carousel turned to chaos on Sunday as Jon Sumrall went to Florida, Alex Golesh went to Auburn, Ryan Silverfield went to Arkansas and Pat Fitzgerald went to Michigan State. The guys discuss if each of these hires were the right fit for the school and Lane Kiffin's affect on how all of these hires played out. Later, the guys recap some of the action from Week 14. #1 Ohio State broke their losing streak to #15 Michigan, but the biggest news of the weekend was #16 Texas defeating previously unbeaten #3 Texas A&M. Andy and Godfrey discuss what effect this will have on Tuesdays College Football Playoff rankings. They also take a look at the ACC. #18 Virginia is set to take on Duke in the ACC title game, but what happens if Duke wins? Could the ACC miss out on the CFP completely? Plus, news breaks during the show as Kentucky fires Mark Stoops.Catch up on all of the coaching chaos with College Football Enquirer.(0:52) - Lane Kiffin choses LSU(31:44) - Jon Sumrall to Florida(36:19) - Alex Golesh to Auburn(41:30) - Ryan Silverfield to Arkansas(46:50) - Michigan State fires Jonathan Smith, set to hire Pat Fitzgerald(54:24) - #1 Ohio State defeats #15 Michigan(56:33) - How does #3 Texas A&M's loss change the CFP?(1:07:01) - Kentucky fires Mark Stoops Subscribe to the College Football Enquirer on your favorite podcast app:

Valenti began the third hour with his extended thoughts on MSU's firing of Jonathan Smith and hiring of Pat Fitzgerald as its next football head coach. The guys continued with this topic, mixing in the Lions sparingly as well.

Valenti offers his two cents on his alma mater's hiring of Pat Fitzgerald as their new football head coach.

The guys kick off this week's Best of Valenti with "Can We Say That?" NFL version. Also, they discuss what, if anything, MSU is planning with Jonathan Smith and break down how money is ruining college sports.

The coaching carousel keeps on spinning, but Florida State is not joining the party in 2025. FSU announced on Sunday that Mike Norvell will remain the head coach of the Seminoles in 2026. This announcement comes at the end of a disappointing season that began with a lot of promise. Promises have been made to enhance the roster next season. Andy Staples, Ross Dellenger and Steven Godfrey discuss why Florida State decided to make this move and if they think it was the right decision. Then, they look to Michigan State where a decision looms. Will the Spartans keep Jonathan Smith or will the current eight-game losing streak be the final straw of a disappointing tenure in East Lansing? Coaching carousel drama would not be complete without another Lane Kiffin update. The guys discuss Kiffin's recent silence on the topic of his coaching decision. They also discuss what will happen to the team that misses out on Kiffin and why this year's selection of candidates is unique to those of the past. Then, the guys talk about events happening on the field. There are a lot of games this week with massive CFP implications as we close out the regular season. A notable one, and one that Andy thinks may be ready for an upset, is #10 Alabama visiting Auburn. The guys discuss if this game will actually be close and Andy makes his case as to why he thinks this is a potential upset to keep an eye on. Then they chat about the game that will have everyone watching because of Lane Kiffin. #6 Ole Miss visits Mississippi State on Friday for the Egg Bowl. A massive rivalry, propped up by coaching drama, one team trying to reach bowl eligibility and the other team fighting for a spot in the College Football Playoff. Ross and Godfrey dive into the history of this rivalry and what they think may come of it this year. Finally they chat about arguably the biggest rivalry in college football. #1 Ohio State takes on #18 Michigan in The Big House. Michigan is riding a four-game winning streak in this rivalry. The crew talks about how this game could be another chance for Michigan to pull the massive upset, or it could be Ohio State's opportunity to exorcise its demons and snap the losing streak. Plus, Ross gives an update on the CFP extending conversations about the future of the CFP format.Later, it's time for I've Got A Feeling. Nebraska, Tennessee and Tec de Monterrey are who the guys have a good feeling about this week.

The guys return to the Jonathan Smith discussion for another segment.

The guys take a break from talking Lions to have a conversation about the lack of clarity from MSU when it comes to whether they're going to retain or fire Jonathan Smith.

David joined to go over some Thanksgiving dishes with the guys and which they like to consume on Turkey Day. They shifted to the Jonathan Smith discussion for another segment, and then Kenny joined to give his thoughts on the state of the Red Wings.

Valenti and Rico spent the second hour continuing their Lions conversation from the hour before giving some thoughts on what MSU could possibly be planning to do with Jonathan Smith.

The guys do this week's CFB "Can We Say That?"

Valenti offers an interesting theory regarding J Batt and his handling (or lack thereof) of MSU football head coach Jonathan Smith.

Rico brings up some of the biggest CFB topics in this blitz.

Valenti reads some quotes from new Virginia Tech head coach James Franklin and wonders what J Batt is thinking by continuing to employ Jonathan Smith.

Valenti is ecstatic at the idea of Jonathan Smith potentially knowing about the MSU football violations and whether the school could void what they'd owe him in a buyout.

Valenti and Rico wrapped up the show revisiting their MSU Football talk from the first hour before Riger joined in cross-talk.

Mike and Rico wonder if it's been easier to find a good college football head coach since the start of the NIL era.

The guys continue to entrench themselves in their main topic of the day, taking a different angle when it comes to the influence of the struggles of MSU under Jonathan Smith plays a part in it.

Offense vs Michigan State Starts at 1:05 They watch games in Craig's garage but to be clear it's a very nice garage. This game means different things based on if you're from Michigan or not. This game is like "Jerry Springer: the Rivalry". Michigan went back to the 2023 "we can just run the ball and get away with a win" gameplan. 'Road Bryce' seems to be a real thing. Every time they show Jonathan Smith he looks like he doesn't want to be there. Should there be an ingrained hatred of Michigan if you're going to be the head coach at Michigan State? Bryce doesn't have a good game but both backs go for over 100 yards. Bryce looked great last week, what happened? Or is this just the case of a true freshman in a road environment again? Sprague and Guarnera had great games, El-Hadi maybe not so much? The pieces for the 2026 offensive line may already be in place. Let's talk about Semaj... We're mostly out on Semaj, do you bench him now for his own good? Jordan Marshall: runs through guys and runs through guys. The Crippen high snap was unfortunate. Can anyone play fullback better than Max Bredeson?  [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]  2. Defense vs Michigan State Starts at 59:04 We've been down on Wink but this was a good game for the defense. You can't take much on this based on the performance of the opposition. Chiles was awful in a vacuum, Michigan was not forcing his problems. Hillman had a really good game, he's been given a lot of criticism but this was a chaotically good game. Jimmy Rolder was a little bit of everywhere, he's a playmaker now. Derrick Moore is pretty good, he should start! Everything around the defensive tackle position is fine but we're used to a defense designed around great defensive tackles. Defensive backs should have as equal right to the ball as wide receivers.  3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 1:26:57 Takes hotter than the bacteria and/or virus that really got up in Brian's business this week. Glue the hat and pants on, Michigan State's not getting the trophy back. Some of us don't think that guy was off-sides... or was he? The hold on Crippen is not even remotely a hold. If that's a hold then we need to talk about Jaishawn Barham. Why are we accepting a fair catch on the 20?? We are out on J.B. Brown as special teams coordinator. Hollenbeck had a nice game at least. Semaj gets run over by Goodwin?! Should they have taken a shot in the endzone before the end of the half?   4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:51:10 Rutgers 27, Purdue 24 The Purdue QB catches his own pass and spectacularly hands the game over to Rutgers in dramatic fashion. Rutgers gets yards, not points. Purdue wins a game they probably shouldn't have. This game kind of saved Rutgers' season, they could potentially compete with Penn State for bowl eligibility.  Nebraska 28, Northwestern 21 Northwestern outgains Nebraska and Dylan Raiola was un-inspiring. That said, Raiola was still the better QB. Northwestern always seems to find the worst QB in the portal. Nebraska seems to think they can solve their offensive line problems with the portal but they can't.  Indiana 56, UCLA 6 There was a pick-six a minute into the game and that's all she wrote. Last year Indiana was a fun story, this year THEY'RE SCARY.  Washington 42, Illinois 25 Road Washington is a thing. The worst roughing the passer call we've ever seen is in this game. Could Oregon be a play-in for a playoff spot for Washington??  Oregon 21, Wisconsin 7 Wisconsin doesn't get shut out three games in a row! All things considered, the Wisconsin defense is playing their hearts out.  Iowa 41, Minnesota 3 Iowa had 274 total yards. How do you get 41 points on 274 total yards? It's Iowa. We need a Floyd of Rosedale pose on touchdowns in this game. Playoff Iowa??? No, that's silly.  MUSIC: "Chokkan Way"—Haku "My Girlfriend Doesn't Worry"—Jeffrey Lewis "Nausea"—Jeff Rosenstock “Across 110th Street”—JJ Johnson and his Orchestra   

The guys hear from a few more of the people before the end of the show.
