Rene Wenzel has a long history in the sport of cycling. He started out as a junior rider in Denmark. He was quite successful as a junior by winning Danish and Scandinavian Junior Road Championships. Once he moved up to the senior ranks he eventually moved to Belgium and France to race. By the end of 1980 Wenzel says he had mono. He says that was a tough 12 to 14 months. Wenzel would recover and eventually come over to the states with a friend and race. He would race track and criteriums quite successfully. By the late 80's he was back in Denmark and he would eventually retire with over 300 plus wins to his credit. Coaching would take over for Wenzel. In the 90's he would work with the U.S. Junior National Team, work with the Saturn team twice, and own and run the Subway team.Wenzel would eventually walk away from cycling. He says it was disappointing to see the drug situation in Europe when he would bring his team over for some early season racing. Wenzel and Angus Fraser would later be accused and sued for allegedly giving illegal substances to Greg Strock and Erich Kaiter when they were juniors. Wenzel denies the accusations. He recently left a position with the Indian Cycling Federation. 

This is the second episode in a special series on gender identity policies in rowing. We're getting to know some of the people behind initiatives challenging the notion of fairness and inclusion in our sport. Since December 2022, World Athletics, World Rowing, USRowing and other national governing bodies, have announced updated gender identity policies. The Biden administration is proposing changes to Title IX. In response, voices across the rowing community have stood up for "fairness for women" and alternatively "inclusion for marginalized athletes." We're taking a closer look. Ann Strayer, OLY, was a self-described "natural" in a single in high school. She quickly earned a seat on the 1978 Junior National Team, and went on to row at Princeton 1978 to 1982. While at university she made her first National Team in 1981, followed by five more teams in the 1980s, culminating in a spot on the 1988 Olympic squad. Today, Strayer is the Varsity Women's Coach at Oakland United Rowing in Oakland, CA. In response to the ICONS petition seeking to define "eligibility for the women's/girl's categories to participants born female," Strayer and fellow OUR coach and Olympian Erin Cafaro have written a letter in support of USRowing's gender identity policy. They, along with 50+ Olympians and coaches who have signed the letter, strongly believe that the most important thing for scholastic transgender and non-binary athletes is to welcome them into boathouses, and allow them to row as the gender with which they identify. . QUICK LOOK 00:00 - Rachel and Tara talk gender identity policies, the ICONS petition fighting for fairness for females, and the letter that Strayer and Erin Cafaro have written in support of gender inclusive policies. 08:15 - Team Huddle: Coach Strayer's bio in 45 seconds  09:10 - Rapid Fire Q&A 12:40 - Growing up in Cape Cod, MA: sailboats, softball, and basketball.

The stern pair shares the similarities and differences of European style training to the United States, discipline, History Making appearances, Anna's gap year, and how vital knowledge of boat mechanics truly is.

  Today's guest wears a lot of impressive hats: Former Socceroo | Broadcaster | Adjunct Professor, Sport & Social Responsibility | Author | and Human Rights Activist Who else could this be but Craig Foster AM? Following a decorated football career as Australia's 419th Socceroo and 40th Captain, Craig has become one of Australia's most respected sports people as a broadcaster, social justice advocate, and human rights campaigner. Craig represented Australia in the Junior National Team at age 15 in the first FIFA Under 16 World Cup in China, 1985 where he was selected in the FIFA Team of the Tournament. He would later go on to represent Australia at senior level on 29 occasions including as Captain. Following retirement, he quickly became one of Australia's most respected sports broadcasters with an 18-year, triple Logie-winning career with Australia's multicultural broadcaster, Special Broadcasting Service (SBS) as part of The World Game (TWG) team which included five FIFA World Cups and four FIFA Women's World Cups as well as the UEFA Champions League, English Premier League and domestic competitions. He is a vocal supporter of a higher humanitarian intake by Australia and particularly an increased intake for Afghan refugees. A smidgen of his relevant humanitarian work efforts includes being: A member of the Australian Multicultural Council under the Department of Home Affairs, Immigration and Citizenship division An Ambassador for Amnesty Australia, the Affinity Intercultural Foundation, and Addison Road Community Centre including their #RacismNotWelcome campaign for Local Councils across Australia, Pushing Barriers, an Australia Committee member with Human Rights Watch, Advisory Council member of the Australian Human Rights Institute, UNSW and a Director of the Crescent Foundation. His humanitarian activism extends to several, high-profile campaigns including #SaveHakeem to free Bahraini refugee Hakeem al-Araibi from a Thai prison for which he was a Finalist for the Australian Human Rights Commission Medal. He is a former columnist for the Sun Herald, author, and co-author of several books including ‘Fighting for Hakeem' by Hachette Australia, and writes for the Guardian, The Age, and other publications and holds a Professional Coaching License and helped guide dozens of Australia's finest young female and male talents, many of whom graduated to Australia's National Teams. In 2019, the Australian Financial Review recognized Craig as a ‘True Australian Leader', the Sydney Morning Herald as one of the ‘People that Defined 2019′, he was the recipient of the 2020 NSW Government Humanitarian Award for his work with sport and human rights, an Australian Human Rights Commission Medal finalist, was awarded the Australian Muslim Council 2020 Abyssinian Medal and was a finalist for the NSW 2021 Australian of the Year. In 2021, Craig became a Member of the Order of Australia (AM) in the Australia Day Honours List which he dedicated to and shared with his refugee friends and all refugees seeking safety around the world. In 2020, Craig contributed to the acquisition of Humanitarian Visas and evacuation of around one hundred predominantly female Afghan athletes from Kabul escaping the Taliban including the Afghan National Women's Football Team and Taekwondo athletes, as well as Afghanistan's several Paralympians who went on to compete at the Tokyo Paralympic Games weeks later.  Working with Australia's Immigration Minister, Alex Hawke, and Foreign Minister, Marise Payne as well as trusted members of the Australian Parliament, Craig used his sporting and political connections to secure the safety of many Afghans.  Shortly after the Kabul airport was closed to evacuation flights, Craig also assisted 15 young girls to escape a Kabul safe house while the Taliban searched from house to house for them and acquired the Humanitarian Visas for them to resettle in Australia. Somehow, Craig was nominated as one of Australia's Best Dressed Men despite spending his life in ripped jeans and board-shorts and still plays football for the Waverley Old Boys Over 35's in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, Australia where he tries to relive old glories. Today, Craig advises on athlete activism for some of Australia's most prominent sportspeople and is an Adjunct Professor of Sport and Social Responsibility with Torrens University, Australia where he has developed an online course called ‘Sport for Good' which teaches athletes and sport practitioners how to utilize sport for social justice and progressive issues around the world. Craig holds a Bachelor of Laws (LLB), a Master's Degree in International Sports Management, and a Postgraduate Degree in Football Management. In this episode, Craig discusses: How do you define human rights? Maybe a practical example of what that is in practice. Is it just about equality of opportunities in a legal and moral sense or much more? What prompted you to become a human rights advocate? Was there a trigger for you that made you focus on this and what keeps you going when issues like Manus Island detainees among other cases must sometimes feel like they will never go away? Many of us witnessed through the consistent media coverage your role in freeing footballer Hakeem al-Alraibi in 2019. That was a relentless campaign and one that I imagine you had to pull on every lever you had to make that case stay front of mind in not just the media but the government's agenda. Reflecting on that experience, what did that reveal about Australia's human rights approach? We have a problematic human rights record in Australia and the First Nations people have suffered and continue to suffer – for example, ABS figures from 30 June 2021 stated Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander prisoners made up 30% of all prisoners and 78% had experienced prior adult imprisonment. And life expectancy remains much lower than non-Indigenous Australians. How can we rectify this huge and relentless situation faster and in a way that is humane? Take away: What is your final takeaway message for us on The Politics of Human Rights?   To connect with Craig: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/craig-foster-am-69b9a72b/ W: www.craigfoster.net

Josh Booty is a Shreveport Louisiana Native with a long family blood line of athletic greatness which includes his father who was a football high school All-American and two out of his three brothers (John David "JD", Abram & Jack) played in the NFL. Josh was the 1993 High School National Football player of the year and shared many prestigous National player of the year awards with Peyton Manning. He was also a 4 time All-State Shortstop and an all-American shortstop as a senior where he played on the Junior National Team and won a silver metal. After being heavily recruited in both football and baseball by LSU and other power house programs, Josh was chosen in the first round/5th pick of the 1994 major league draft by the Florida Marlins and opted to sign a record breaking $1.6M signing bonus. Josh quickly worked his way up through the minor league system and made his big league debut with the Marlins. In 1999, after 5 years of professional baseball Josh's passion for football won out and he signed to play for Nick Saban at Louisiana State University (LSU)/ Booty had a stellar career at LSU and was named to the first team all SEC after a successful season which concluded with defeating #15 Georgia Tech in the Peach Bowl. He was drafted by the Seattle Seahawks and played 5 years in the NFL with the Seahawks, Cleveland Browns and Oakland Raiders before hanging up the spikes and pursuing a business career. Early in his athletic career Josh knew that no matter how successful his professional sports career would be he would need to prepare for a life after sports. He always networked and treated people well a long his journey and it paid off handsomely as a lot of his former classmates and friends have become business partners and assocaites. This is a crucial lesson about social netowrking and social equity for young athletes at every major university. Most young athletes do not realize they have the most amount of social equity and influeunce during the short 6 year window of high school and college sports where they should be building deep realtionships with classmates and the community around them which will set them up for a life and career after sports. Today Josh is a serial entrepreneur and does business development and consulting for many corporations in tech, healthcare, media and other industries. The time management skill set and work ethic he honed during his athletic career have transferred well as Josh is continuously wearing a lot of hats and juggling multiple projects for the various companies he is working with . He also keeps his eyes on SEC football and hosts an awesom football podcast SECQB on the Bleav Podcast Network which gives you an up close and personall insiders look at SEC football. @joshbooty10 on instagram @thedealpod @dannybrownla http://www.thedealpod.com

I chat with Justin Moore.https://hydrow.com/athletes/At Yale, he led the freshman eight to the 1996 Eastern Sprints Championship and, later that summer, a victory in the Temple Challenge Cup at the Henley Royal Regatta.  He then went on to Williams College, where as Head Women's Coach, he guided the team to six NCAA Division III national championships.  With an incredible streak from 2006 to 2010, Williams became the first Division III school to win five consecutive NCAA titles.  After that, he took over as the Head Women's Coach at Syracuse.  Under his leadership, the orange earned seven top-three conference championship finishes and three trips to the NCAA Championship.   He was also an active international coach, working with the US Women's Junior National Team on 2009 and 2010 and the US Under 23 Women's Team in 2012.  His crews collected 4 World Championship medals.Today he is co-founder and Chief Coach at Hydrow, the company that is revolutionizing the indoor rowing experience, bringing the river home with live workouts on stunning waterways from around the world.
