Podcast appearances and mentions of Lance Armstrong

We'll be back next week with new episodes. In the meantime, in honor of next month's Tour de France, we're revisiting one of the most infamous sports scandals of the early 2000s:Lance Armstrong's determination to win helps him survive cancer and become cycling's biggest star in the early 2000s. But his ruthless desire to be the best leads him to create a secret cheating scheme. It fuels him to a historic Tour de France winning streak—but requires an elaborate cover-up that includes bullying anyone who tries to expose him, even his teammates. After he's exposed and falls from grace, his pride and stubbornness makes his apology tour feel more like backpedaling to save his reputation.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Most careers don't follow a straight line. But few require starting over in full view of the public.This week, Halle sits down with Lance Armstrong to discuss how he rebuilt his life and career after multiple turning points, including surviving advanced cancer, and how those experiences shaped his perspective on health, performance, and reinvention. Now, through his venture firm Next Ventures, he backs companies focused on what they call “whole person health” — spanning prevention, wellness, diagnostics, longevity, and healthcare outside the traditional system.We cover:Why he chose to become a VC, and what he likes (and dislikes) about the jobHow his experience as a patient shapes how he evaluates companiesWhy preventive care is growing outside the traditional healthcare systemWhat he looks for in founders building across the care continuumWhat it takes to rebuild trust and start overAbout our guest:Lance Armstrong is a former professional cyclist, entrepreneur, and investor. After surviving advanced testicular cancer, he founded Livestrong, helping raise more than $500 million to support cancer patients and survivors worldwide. In 2019, he co-founded Next Ventures, a venture capital firm focused on health, wellness, and consumer brands, with investments including Oura, Cofertility, Pair Team, and SteadyMD. Prior to Next Ventures, he was an active angel investor in companies such as Uber, DocuSign, and Athletic Brewing.—

This week on The Floor Recap, Angie, Brad, and Nicki dive headfirst into one of the weirdest episodes of the season — complete with bad strategy, bathroom trauma, awkward alliances, and Lance Armstrong apparently becoming the first man on the moon. The crew breaks down Morgan's Renaissance Faire disaster, Beans surviving despite looking like he wandered out of a Disney Channel reboot, and Anthony somehow winning while still making Brad question the entire education system.The gang also debates whether Eric is secretly Darth Vader running a mind-control alliance, why nobody seems willing to challenge him, and whether contestants are literally panicking themselves into bad gameplay. Meanwhile, Ren casually wins $20,000 for doing almost nothing, Nicki reveals her deep fear of airplane bathrooms, and Brad launches into another legendary rant about contestants going back to the floor after only two wins.Add in soap operas, nuts, porta-potties, celebrity siblings, Sunday Toppings, and way too much discussion about bodily functions, and you've got one chaotic recap episode that somehow spirals further off the rails every five minutes.

La definición del dopaje es compleja, pues existen tantos compuestos y métodos prohibidos para optimizar el rendimiento como disciplinas deportivas. Entre los casos más relevantes de esta particular historia del engaño figuran la descalificación del atleta Ben Johnson tras ganar los 100 metros en los Juegos Olímpicos de Seúl; el caso Festina, desarrollado en Francia en torno al ciclismo de élite; la anulación del palmarés del heptacampeón del Tour Lance Armstrong; y, por supuesto, la desarticulación de la red liderada en España por el doctor Eufemiano Fuentes.La operación Puerto se extendió desde el 23 de mayo de 2006, cuando se practicaron las primeras detenciones en Madrid y Zaragoza, hasta la celebración del juicio de los acusados, siete años después. Una de las consecuencias de este gran escándalo fue la aprobación de la ley antidopaje el 21 de noviembre de 2006, que por primera vez penalizaba a quienes proporcionan sustancias dopantes a los deportistas, mientras que estos solo reciben una sanción administrativa.Este documental sonoro, con guion de Juan Ballesteros y realización de Samuel Alarcón, plantea una amplia retrospectiva del fenómeno. Participan el director y la jefa de prevención de la Comisión Española para la Lucha Antidopaje en el Deporte (CELAD), Carlos Peralta y Carolina García; el expresidente de la Sociedad Española de Medicina Deportiva, Pedro Manonelles; el brigada Miguel Ángel, miembro de la Unidad Técnica de la Policía Judicial (UTPJ) de la Guardia Civil; y los periodistas deportivos Ana José Cancio y Carlos Arribas. El programa recorre las dependencias del Laboratorio de Control del Dopaje del Instituto de Salud Carlos III, cuyo personal técnico, al mando de su directora, Gloria Muñoz, explica cómo se realizan los análisis. Además, uno de los cinco detenidos en la operación Puerto, el exdirector deportivo de los equipos ciclistas ONCE y Liberty Seguros, Manolo Saiz, ha accedido a rememorar en estos micrófonos lo vivido hace dos décadas. El juicio posterior lo recordamos con el periodista de Radio Nacional de España que lo siguió, Txemi Kintana. El documental se completa con las voces del exteniente de la UCO Enrique Gómez Bastida, quien dirigió la operación; el exciclista que denunció estas prácticas, Jesús Manzano; así como distintos deportistas envueltos en casos de dopaje o supuesto dopaje cuyos testimonios se conservan en el Archivo RTVE: Marta Domínguez, Paquillo Fernández, Alberto Contador, etc.Escuchar audio

The Fall of Peter — and Every Disciple David Mathis Download John 18:12-27,So the band of soldiers and their captain and the officers of the Jews arrested Jesus and bound him. 13 First they led him to Annas, for he was the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year. 14 It was Caiaphas who had advised the Jews that it would be expedient that one man should die for the people.15 Simon Peter followed Jesus, and so did another disciple. Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest, 16 but Peter stood outside at the door. So the other disciple, who was known to the high priest, went out and spoke to the servant girl who kept watch at the door, and brought Peter in. 17 The servant girl at the door said to Peter, “You also are not one of this man's disciples, are you?” He said, “I am not.” 18 Now the servants and officers had made a charcoal fire, because it was cold, and they were standing and warming themselves. Peter also was with them, standing and warming himself.19 The high priest then questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching. 20 Jesus answered him, “I have spoken openly to the world. I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together. I have said nothing in secret. 21 Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them; they know what I said.” 22 When he had said these things, one of the officers standing by struck Jesus with his hand, saying, “Is that how you answer the high priest?” 23 Jesus answered him, “If what I said is wrong, bear witness about the wrong; but if what I said is right, why do you strike me?” 24 Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.25 Now Simon Peter was standing and warming himself. So they said to him, “You also are not one of his disciples, are you?” He denied it and said, “I am not.” 26 One of the servants of the high priest, a relative of the man whose ear Peter had cut off, asked, “Did I not see you in the garden with him?” 27 Peter again denied it, and at once a rooster crowed.Our world loves a rise-and-fall story. History has its Julius Caesars, its Napoleon Bonapartes, its Richard Nixons. In recent years, we've watched the great rises and falls of athletes like Lance Armstrong and Tiger Woods, of film producers Harvey Weinstein, of comedians Bill Cosby.In fact, our world loves these fall stories so much that we like to have a hand in making them. In our sin, we have a twisted appetite for accelerating the rise, and then piling on to exacerbate the fall.The Bible also has its great fall stories. The big one is the Fall of humanity in Genesis 3. But Abraham has his fall. And the people of Israel, fresh off deliverance from Egypt and receiving the law, make a golden calf, led by their first high priest. And we find the rise and various falls of Saul, David, Solomon, and with them the fall of the kingship in Israel and the nation itself.This morning we come to the fall of Peter.Four Lessons from Peter's FallTwo parallel tracks unfold in this passage as Jesus is arrested and separated from his disciples: Jesus moves toward the cross, to Annas, to Caiaphas, to Pilate.In the meantime, the disciples scatter, as Peter, chief among them, denies three times that he knows Jesus.For the first time, we have the breaking of fellowship between Jesus and his disciples. The shepherd is struck; the sheep scatter. Jesus must go to the cross alone. No sinner can assist him in this work, to rescue sinners.The heart of this passage is the back-and-forth contrast between Jesus and Peter. John's point isn't that we point fingers at Peter but that every disciple is like Peter. The contrasts are stark: Jesus says, I am; Peter says, twice, I am not. Peter stands with bad company warming himself, while Jesus shivers in the cold alone. Peter tries to protect himself; Jesus exposes himself to harm. Peter's nerve fails, while Jesus is steady and composed under great pressure. Jesus stands; Peter falls.The point is the contrast. The shame of Peter is a foil to the stunning glory of Jesus. But here's the angle of approach I'd like for us to take this morning. I want to learn from Peter's fall.Humility learns from the failures of others. I think what God has for us this morning, at least in part, is to learn from the fall of Peter as it sits side by side with the shining faithfulness of Jesus.So, let's follow the arc of Peter's fall with four lessons.1. Stay Awake.By that, I mean stay awake spiritually. Just this week, with Peter's fall on my mind, I came across Mark 13:33–37 and was surprised how much this was exactly what Peter needed:Be on guard, keep awake. For you do not know when the time will come. 34 It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to stay awake. 35 Therefore stay awake—for you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or [get this:] when the rooster crows, or in the morning— 36 lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. 37 And what I say to you I say to all: Stay awake.Jesus gave Peter many warnings. We saw in John 13:36, Peter says: “Lord, why can I not follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.” Jesus says, “Will you lay down your life for me? Truly, truly, I say to you, the rooster will not crow till you have denied me three times.”Here's how Jesus warns Peter in the Gospel of Luke, 22:31–34:“Simon, Simon, behold, Satan demanded to have you, that he might sift you like wheat, 32 but I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.” 33 Peter said to him, “Lord, I am ready to go with you both to prison and to death.” 34 Jesus said, “I tell you, Peter, the rooster will not crow this day, until you deny three times that you know me.”This is vintage Peter with these strange ups and downs.One moment: You are the Christ! Then: Never, Lord!One moment: Don't wash my feet! Then: Wash my whole body!One moment: I will lay down my life for you! Then Jesus says: No, Peter, I'm laying down my life for you — and all the while you'll be denying me three times.After so many warnings, what happens in the garden? Peter falls asleep. He's not alone: James and John do too. Jesus warns them: “the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.” Then, sleeping again, Peter is startled awake as soldiers approach. He's caught off guard. He draws his sword and cuts off the ear; Jesus rebukes him; the disciples scatter.So, the first lesson from Peter is to heed Jesus's warnings to stay awake. That is, no spiritual sleeping. No spiritual vacations. No coasting or autopilot. Satan targets his attacks on us at the times he thinks we'll be least ready.So, are you awake this morning? Have you been awake this week? Spiritually awake. Are your eyes open to spiritual reality? Are your ears attuned daily to Jesus's word? Are your lips whispering prayers? Are you walking arm in arm with Christ's people? Or are you falling asleep?2. Beware your perceptions of social pressure.To be clear, Peter's denials are sin. Great sin. And his sin comes out in a particular circumstance: the questions of strangers. Peter's fall is not one of isolation; it's a failure of nerve in the face of what he's assuming other people are thinking. (And not just others but strangers.)Peter wants to protect himself. His master is in grave danger, and Peter assumes the disciples must be in danger too. But the reason I emphasize Peter's skewed perception is the presence of John.The best explanation of this enigmatic “other disciple” is that this is the author's humble way of telling a story he's in but it's not about him. Verse 15 mentions “another disciple.” Verse 16: “Since that disciple was known to the high priest, he entered with Jesus into the courtyard of the high priest.”The key word is “also”: Verse 17: “You also are not one of this man's disciples, are you?”Verse 25: “You also are not one of his disciples, are you?”What's the “also”? It assumes this other disciple. The high priest and his people know John, and they know he's a disciple. Which is why they ask Peter, “Hey, you're not also a disciple, are you?” And the form of their question helps Peter deny it: “Surely, you're not with this Jesus too, are you?” The way they ask the question cues Peter up to deny it. But the denials are Peter's. People will do that, you know: “You're not one of those Christians, are you?” They're setting you up to say, Of course not.The reason we know Peter's perception was mistaken is it turns out nobody crucified John. The high priest and the people know that John is a disciple. But it's Jesus they want. So, John's presence, as a known disciple, shows how Peter's perception of what the strangers think was off. His fear was misplaced; Peter was off balance and misreading the situation. And even if he had read it right, that's no excuse for disowning his Master — not once or twice, but three times, and that after being warned so clearly. Then comes verse 27: the rooster crows. And Peter comes awake to his sin.What happened next to Peter? John doesn't tell us; he knows we have the other three Gospels. But before we go there, let's glean this: beware what thoughts you let dance in your head about what people think, especially strangers you do not know. Sometimes people, even strangers, catch us off guard at the strangest times with significant questions about our faith, the Bible, Christianity, our church, and they cue you up for the groupthink answer, whatever the context. Be ready for that. Don't give in. Pushback. Ask a question back. Or just give them the honest, straightforward, wisely worded truth that they need to hear to fry their categories.One more thing to add here, from one of your pastors: Be so careful with online and social-media impressions of what the masses are thinking. The two-dimensional, algorithmic online environment is highly distortive. It is a hall of mirrors and radicalizing extremes. People who grow more and more highly online do not grow more balanced in their assessment of other people's perceptions; they begin to lose touch with reality.So, stay awake, and beware your perceptions of social pressure.3. When you've failed, look Jesus in the eye.Now we pick up, from the Gospel of Luke, what happens once the rooster crows. This is an awesome moment. Luke 22:60–62:“Immediately, while [Peter] was still speaking, the rooster crowed. 61 And the Lord turned and looked at Peter. And Peter remembered the saying of the Lord, how he had said to him, “Before the rooster crows today, you will deny me three times.” 62 And he went out and wept bitterly.”So, the rooster crows. Both Jesus and Peter hear it. Peter reflexively looks at Jesus. And Jesus turns and looks at Peter. They lock eyes. What must this have been like for Peter?Was it utterly devastating? I don't think it was. I expect there was a lot in that look. I'm sure it was not an easy moment for Peter. He is startled wide awake. He is humbled. He goes out and weeps bitterly. But Peter doesn't hang himself. Somehow this is a healing devastation. It's an empowering humiliation. Yes, his soul is flooded with shame and conviction, but it leads to repentance and life.Peter's fall is so different than Judas's. It was so good for Peter that he looked Jesus in the eye. Imagine how much Jesus communicated in that look, without any words — Jesus's foreknowledge of Peter's fall, his clear warnings, his righteous anger, his genuine grief, his profound compassion, and his transforming power.Jesus not only had said Peter would deny him. He also said,“I have prayed for you that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned again, strengthen your brothers.”Not “if you turn,” but “when you have turned.” Peter, you will turn. I have prayed for you. I will see to it, that you will turn; you will rise from this fall, so much so that you will strengthen your brothers.Yes, Peter had failed Jesus, and that was worth mourning. But now, freshly humbled, he also has a commission from the sovereign Christ. Peter locks eyes with Jesus and finds renewed strength to persevere and even strengthen the brothers.And oh what courage we'll come to see in Peter. His story will not be a rise and fall; it is a fall and rise. Which comes not because of his faithfulness but Jesus's.Jesus's Rise to the CrossSo, now we need to put our lessons on hold for a few minutes, and pick up Jesus's part of the story in verses 19–24. Remember: as Peter falls, Jesus stands.For me, the big question in verses 19–24 is, Wait, hold on, who is the high priest?It's confusing on the surface. Verse 13 says Jesus comes first to Annas, “the father-in-law of Caiaphas, who was high priest that year.” Then we have John's reminder in verse 14 about Caiaphas's prophecy (which we saw last fall back in 11:50: “it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish”).Then the focus shifts to Peter in verses 15–18, then back to Jesus in verse 19: “The high priest (is that Caiaphas?) then questioned Jesus about his disciples and his teaching.” Jesus answers,“I have spoken openly to the world. I have always taught in synagogues and in the temple, where all Jews come together. I have said nothing in secret.”This high priest is trying to get Jesus to incriminate himself, without any witnesses. So, Jesus asks in verse 21:“Why do you ask me? Ask those who have heard me what I said to them; they know what I said.”In other words, ask my disciples; there are plenty of witnesses. And the irony is that just as Jesus is saying his disciples can witness for him, Peter is failing so miserably by denying him.At this, Jesus is struck, unjustly, by “one of the officers standing by,” who says, “Is that how you answer the high priest?” Jesus responds with a question, “If what I said is wrong, bear witness about the wrong; but if what I said is right, why do you strike me?”Then comes the surprise in verse 24: “Annas then sent him bound to Caiaphas the high priest.” Wait a minute: Jesus hasn't gone to Caiaphas yet. He's been standing before Annas till now? If that's the case, verses 19 and 22 have called Annas the high priest. But John said in verse 13 that Caiaphas “was high priest that year.” So, who is the high priest? Is it Annas, the father-in-law, who's been high priest before? Five of his sons have served yearlong terms, including now his son-in-law Caiaphas. Annas is the patriarch. He's the boss high priest; his sons and son-in-law take turns filling the role, but Annas is the one who holds the power. So, is he really the high priest?Or is it Caiaphas who formally holds the office? The Old Testament had said the high priesthood was to be for life. But the Romans have limited that seat of Jewish power by enforcing these one-year terms. So, technically, Caiaphas is high priest that year. Is he really the high priest?I don't think this confusion is by accident. I suspect John wants us to see that yes, Annas is in some sense high priest, and yes, Caiaphas also is in some sense high priest. But when you ask who's really high priest in John 18, what's the answer? It's not Annas. It's not Caiaphas. It's the man who stands before them, bound like a sacrifice. This man has chosen to be here, and he goes willingly to the cross as the true high priest who offers the true and final sacrifice.And the reason Jesus goes to the cross is not for sins of his own, but for disciples like Peter. Jesus's work as high priest and his sacrifice makes it so that disciples who have failed can lock eyes with him, and not only feel conviction, and not only grieve their failures, but so that they can see in his eyes, “I'm for you. Yes, you have failed me, but I love you, and I have made provision for your sin by the sacrifice of myself. You need not stay devasted. You too can turn.”When Jesus locks eyes with you in your sin, it's appropriate to weep. But not tears of despairs. Tears of repentance. When Jesus looks at you, be like Peter, repent; turn; don't reject Jesus and make your sin worse with self-sabotage; honor the achievement of his cross; acknowledge that he came to rescue sinners; get over yourself and receive his rescue. Which leads to our final lesson.So, stay awake; beware your perceptions of social pressure; lock eyes with Jesus when you've failed. And finally…4. Receive his sacrifice and his Spirit.Peter's faith didn't fail. He wept, and he turned. Which meant he received Jesus's sacrifice — for him, for John, for you, for every disciple.The work of Jesus as both high priest and sacrifice means he covers and deals with the just payment of our sin. And it is the finishing of his life-work of perfect righteousness which becomes ours in union with him by faith. And Jesus's sacrifice doesn't only forgive sins, and give us righteous standing before God, but the risen Christ also pours out his Holy Spirit (as we'll celebrate next week on Pentecost) to dwell in Peter, and dwell in us.Which gives us another piece of the complex picture of how Peter fell: he didn't yet have the Holy Spirit. Not like he would after Pentecost.When the Spirit comes, Peter will be awesome. He will rise indeed as the chief spokesman to proclaim what God has done in Jesus. And this Peter, and this John with him, will stand before this same Annas and Caiaphas and the whole Jewish council, and full of the Holy Spirit, say,“there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. . . . Whether it is right in the sight of God to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge, 20 for we cannot but speak of what we have seen and heard. (Acts 4:12, 20)Brothers and sisters, when you fall, know that in Jesus you can rise. Remember Peter. Do not presume on grace when tempted to sin. But when you have sinned, keep company with Peter in the aftermath. Lock eyes with Jesus. Go to him in his word, and in prayer, and through a Christian brother or sister. Own your sin; grieve it; and receive the purifying, empowering grace of his gaze, in his sacrifice and in his Spirit.Grace for You AlsoI don't know how this sermon is landing on you this morning, whether God is bringing to mind some failure, some fall, in private. Maybe in the past. Maybe it's a live, unresolved fall right now, and this message is for you, to lock eyes with Jesus, own your sin, and see the purifying grace in his eyes.Or perhaps you're thinking of this time in our city, and in our church, and how you've responded when someone caught you off guard with, “You're not also at Cities Church, are you?”Jonathan has more to say about our moment next Sunday. But Peter's full story says to those who have been like him, and failed Jesus in some way: there is grace for you in the same place Peter found grace.Which brings us to the Table.Did you catch that quick detail in verse 18, that “the servants and officers had made a charcoal fire”? That's an odd detail: charcoal fire.The only other charcoal fire in all the Bible is just three chapters later in John 21. Jesus has risen. He appears to his disciples while fishing, gives them a miraculous catch of fish, and when they come ashore, verse 9, “they saw a charcoal fire in place.”This is the public restoration of Peter. Jesus means to use this flawed man, oh does he. He failed three times by a charcoal fire, and now Jesus gives him three matching opportunities to declare his love, and receive the commission to feed Jesus's sheep.However you've fallen short of what Jesus is worth, let this Table be your charcoal fire this morning. This is a table of restoration, of fresh grace and fresh resolve and fresh dedication.

What happens to our character when being dishonest becomes easier and more rewarding than ever before? Wake Forest University philosophy professor Dr. Christian Miller joins host PJ Wehry to discuss the "honesty crisis" and how modern technology reshapes our most fundamental virtue. Dr. Miller explores the findings of The Honesty Project and his book The Honesty Crisis: Preserving Our Most Treasured Virtue in an Increasingly Dishonest World. They examine the psychological and philosophical boundaries of honesty to reveal how motivation is just as important as truth-telling. In this conversation they explore: Why honesty requires more than just accurate behavior and must include selfless or dutiful motivations. The flaws of a "mixed bag" character where people act honestly in some settings but reliably cheat in others. How the rise of AI and the internet created a "double-fold" crisis by increasing the incentives to lie while making it easier to avoid detection.The specific moral dangers of sermon plagiarism and why using AI to generate religious messages compromises the integrity of the speaker.Why celebrity culture creates a negative feedback loop that encourages protecting a public image through deception. Practical strategies for maintaining honesty through community accountability and frequent moral reminders. This is a conversation for anyone interested in psychology and ethics who wants to understand the hidden forces eroding our integrity and how to build a more honest life. Make sure to check out Dr. Miller's book: The Honesty Crisis: Preserving Our Most Treasured Virtue in an Increasingly Dishonest World

This week, James and Will chat to George Hincapie, the super-est of domestiques, double 'ard Classics man and erstwhile lieutenant to Lance Armstrong.George was born in Queens, New York City, on 29th June 1973, to cycling-mad Colombian dad, Ricardo. By twelve he was throwing elbows racing adults in Central Park, and by his teens he was showing the talent that would take him to the Olympics in 1992 and his first pro season, with Motorola, in 1994.At first a self-confessed bunch of American upstarts, Motorola morphed into one of the most formidable teams of the 90s and 2000s, US Postal. There, George forged his status as one of cycling's strongest and most dependable riders, supporting team leader Lance Armstrong as road captain and lieutenant across all seven of Armstrong's Tour wins – though of course that's wins in inverted commas.George retired from the pro peloton in 2012 after 19 seasons in which he started the Tour de France 17 consecutive times, finishing it 16 times and winning one team-time-trial stage. He also rode 50 Monuments including finishing second at Paris Roubaix and third at Tour of Flanders; he won Gent-Wevelgem in 2001; and was three-time US National Champ.Today, George is bringing all that experience to his new team, Modern Adventure Pro Cycling, with the express intention of giving young riders a shot at the big time while becoming 'the next great American team', who might one day compete in the Grand Tours. We spoke to George ahead of Paris-Roubaix, where Modern Adventure had the first big wildcard entry of its inaugural season.Our chat begins at 10.24-----------------This episode is brought to you by the Hammerhead Karoo GPS bike computer.

In this episode, Paul Batz is joined by Whitney-Lehr Koening, Publisher at Minneapolis/St. Paul Business Journal in the Good Leadership podcast studio. Together they reflect on spectacular Good Leadership Breakfast on April 10, 2026, which featured Anne Hed, CEO of HED Cycling Products. Together, they discuss Anne's leadership journey – lessons learned early not making the swim team, having the courage to support Lance Armstrong long before he was famous, unexpectedly losing her husband and instantly becoming the CEO of a company that was depending on her, and how she and her team are visioning for the future of HED by bringing their technology into other industries. Enjoy. Thank you to Java House (javahouse.com) for sponsoring this podcast episode.

Lance Armstrong, George Hincapie, Johan Bruyneel break and Spencer Martin break down Tadej Pogačar's incredible solo win at the Tour of Flanders to rack up his record-tying third career win at the race, as the sport's top riders, Mathieu van der Poel, Remco Evenepoel, Wout van Aert, and Mads Pedersen were left looking for answers behind. They discuss what, if anything, his rivals could have done, Evenepoel's incredible debut at the race, and, most importantly, whether there's anything anyone can do to stop Pogačar next week at Paris-Roubaix.

Join host Sandra Barton for a conversation with Elliot Peters about the unconventional path and pivotal cases that shaped his career. Peters recounts leaving New York University School of Law after his first year, then returning with renewed purpose to pursue trial law. An internship with the Federal Public Defender in Brooklyn deepened his interest in trial advocacy before he gained extensive experience as a prosecutor in the United States Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York. The episode explores high-profile matters involving the Major League Baseball Players Association, his defense of Lance Armstrong, and the acquittal of Palm Springs real estate developer John Wessman, as well as the exoneration of John Tennison, who had been imprisoned for over a decade before Peters proved exculpatory evidence had been suppressed. Peters also reflects on authenticity in the courtroom, mentorship, and fostering a culture that prepares younger lawyers for the craft of trial work.

In the early 2000s, a young man in New Jersey was writing thousands of fake university essays for paying students. Around the same time, financial analysts in New York were rating toxic debt as safe. And in Silicon Valley, a new business philosophy was taking hold: fake it till you make it.Jamie Bartlett asks how so many people, in so many different worlds, arrived at the same conclusion at the same time. The answer, he thinks, has a name - The Lance Armstrong Defence. A quiet, creeping logic that says everyone else is doing it so why can't I?Presenter: Jamie Bartlett Series Producer: Tom Pooley Sound Design: Rob Speight Production Coordinator: Neena Abdullah Original music: Coach Conrad Editor: Craig Templeton SmithA Tempo+Talker production for BBC Radio 4.

We're attempting to define the quintessential We Love the Love movie this week as we look at the Russo brothers' much-maligned 2006 comedy You, Me and Dupree, starring Matt Dillon, Kate Hudson, and Owen Wilson. Join in as we discuss the Russos' pre-Marvel career, a hilariously miscast Seth Rogen, comedy Lance Armstrong, and several episodes of The Newsroom. Plus: Why is Michael Douglas's character so unhinged? What was Dupree's job at the start of the movie? Should married people have friends of any kind? And, most importantly, which character is "you" and which is "me"? Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe!

In this episode, I sit down with historian James Longhurst, author of Bike Battles, to break down the 1979 film Breaking Away and what it reveals about cycling and American life. We talk about why this coming-of-age sports movie still resonates, how it captures class and masculinity, and what it says about the 1970s bike boom. Along the way, we dig into the history of bicycling in America, the politics of the road, and how debates over bike infrastructure, cities, and transportation continue today. From Greg LeMond to Lance Armstrong to the rise of e-bikes, this is a conversation about film, history, and who gets to belong on the American road. 

Ruzie, ruzie ruzie: het is op deze mooie woensdag tijd voor een aflevering volledig gewijd aan sportruzies! Jullie hebben allerlei ruzies ingestuurd en wij hebben daar dan weer een selectie van gemaakt. Van de vreselijke ruzie in het kunstschaatsen tot conflict op de judomat, en: wat zou er gebeuren als Floyd Landis en Lance Armstrong elkaar tegenkomen? Heerlijk lekker luisteren!

Who knew Flo Rida could help us bridge the gap! Travis Kelce has signed a 1-year deal with The Chiefs. Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have big plans for their ranch. “I'm a grown-up, you can't make me!” Dead Kennedys co-founder Jello Biafra was hospitalized after a stroke. The government shutdown is causing spring break troubles. Sarah and Vinnie say they still know nothing about Bob. An angler was arrested for cheating at a fishing competition. Why wasn't Lance Armstrong arrested? Plus, When Did That Happen?!

Hour 1: We're just getting started. If you are looking for new, original storytelling - don't look to Hollywood. Arnold Schwarzenegger is working on reboots for THREE of his iconic films. It's all in the headline: Scrubs, Bridgerton, Yellowstone spin-off, and Tinkerbell! The Bernese coat of arms is striking an unlikely debate. Are you really a girls' girl? Here's how we look out for friends and fellow women you don't know. Hour 2: The woman who shot up Rihanna's house was ranting on social media. Bob is spilling a little bit more about ‘Project Hail Mary' ahead of its release next week. More Game of Thrones news. It's National Napping Day - go for it. Vinnie is still giving out his landline. A classic teen prank has left a teacher dead. Plus, strong feelings about Ranch ahead. (49:21) Hour 3: Jennifer Lopez knows what she wants from a man… we don't believe her. The Rob Reiner tribute at The Oscars is shaping up to be star-studded. The gang wants to change some of their Oscar predictions ahead of the show this weekend. Some guy claims to know the best cereal hack. A new onion that doesn't make you cry, but does it taste good? Have we all been to a wedding that we knew wasn't going to last? (1:30:31) Hour 4: Who knew Flo Rida could help us bridge the gap! Travis Kelce has signed a 1-year deal with The Chiefs. Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani have big plans for their ranch. “I'm a grown-up, you can't make me!” Dead Kennedys co-founder Jello Biafra was hospitalized after a stroke. The government shutdown is causing spring break troubles. Sarah and Vinnie say they still know nothing about Bob. An angler was arrested for cheating at a fishing competition.

Venció al cáncer cuando los médicos no creían que sobreviviría. Luego conquistó el deporte más duro del mundo. La historia de Lance Armstrong parecía la de un verdadero superhéroe… hasta que comenzaron a aparecer preguntas incómodas que cambiarían para siempre la forma en que el mundo lo veía.

Part 3 picks up right where we left off in Part 2. While she was still working that real estate job, Sonia was treating dating like a part-time job. She signed up on several dating sites (this was before swipe apps like Bumble). She went on many awkward coffee dates. Then a friend introduced her to a guy, and the two hit it off right away. They were inseparable from the moment they met, in 2008. They moved in a couple months later. In 2010, they got married, and had a kid shortly after that. But in the middle of all this amazing life shit, Sonia was smacked with a breast cancer diagnosis. She was 38. Sonia had never necessarily wanted to be a mom. She was always happy for friends when they started having kids, but figured it just wasn't in her stars because she wanted a different kind of life. But her new partner and eventual husband told her it was a deal-breaker, and she figured, Why not? They moved from Dogpatch to Glen Park around this time, because they wanted to raise their kid in The City but needed more space to do that, and the options weren't great. Their son was born and they began raising him, eventually getting him into SF public schools. When the kid was about two-and-a-half, Sonia and her husband started to wonder whether he was on the autism spectrum. A positive diagnosis was made eventually. Sonia praises The City and its programs for kids with special needs. And, like some kids on the spectrum, he's obsessed with public transportation, so he's in the right place. (If you listen all the way through to the end of this episode, you'll hear his recording of a BART announcement.) Like most of us, the pandemic did a number on Sonia's little family. Their version went like this: The marriage did not survive. Ed note: We had Sonia and her then-husband on for our Valentine's 2019 episode. After the break-up, at Sonia's request, we took that episode down. She says that before the pandemic, she imagined that the relationship was as good as it gets. In hindsight, she thinks maybe her second breast cancer diagnosis, after her son was born, broke her husband. Up to that point, he'd been a great partner and excellent dad and solid caretaker for his wife through her first bout. The second diagnosis, coupled with a worldwide pandemic, inspired him to do not great things. Sonia tried to save the marriage, but some of her girlfriends took her down to the Madonna Inn and, as she puts it, "shook the shit out of" her. Her new reality meant figuring out what to do every other weekend when she didn't have her son. It was a lot of going to movies solo and doing 1,000-piece jigsaw puzzles while listening to podcasts. The road to healing involved early stints on dating apps, but usually only to wake up the next morning and immediately pull back. She's really learned to love her alone time. We rewind back to 2015 to talk about the origins of a big part of Sonia's life today—podcasting. She and her now-ex-husband launched Old Movies, New Beer, a show where they'd drink a beer that was new to them while chatting about some film from the past. She enjoyed it, but he fell off quickly. A friend from her movie theater days hit her up to do a show about movies, and so Dorking Out was born. It also didn't last long, but in that time, Sonia started discovering podcasts she liked. There was F This Movie and Book vs. Movie. One of the Book vs. Movie hosts was Margo Donahue, and Sonia was a fan. She reached out and the two started following each other. The love was mutual. Dorking Out had Margo on as a guest and she and Sonia gelled so well, her co-host essentially became a third wheel. When he left for unrelated reasons, she kept having Margo come back on the show. Margo slid in to become the show's new co-host. The two became as close as you can living across the continent from each other. One day, Margo shared an idea she had for a new show. She wanted to call it Seriously, Fuck That Guy. It was amid the Me Too Movement, and they'd talk about whatever piece of shit man they wanted (think: Kevin Spacey or Harvey Weinstein). But every episode would end with someone who's not an asshole. Sonia was in, no question, but she thought maybe they needed a different name. It was early 2017, and What a Creep was born. Early episode creeps included Lance Armstrong and Newt Gingrich, someone Sonia considers an OG creep. When Sonia and her ex split up, Margo was her main support. They continued doing What a Creep until 2025, when Margo suddenly passed away. They were supposed to record one day last year and Margo didn't show up. Sonia called and texted mutual friends and eventually called NYC police. Sonia had to decide whether to keep What a Creep going. She settled on having rotating guest hosts on (Erin of Bitch Talk Podcast was on recently to talk about Dick Cheney; we're in talks to have me on soon as well, which I'd be stoked to do). She appreciates the community that has developed over the years around the show. She loves it so much that it's what keeps up her presence on Facebook. I ask Sonia whether there are any San Francisco creeps we might hear more about in the future. She mentions our mayor and our governor while saying that the show leaves space for so-called roads to redemption. I like that. But I also suggest doing episodes on AI or the stupid-ass billboards all over The City. In contrast to that, we end the episode with Sonia talking about the kind of tech we do want.

Senior Tech Editor Josh Ross has spent the last month living with the 5th generation Cannondale SuperSix EVO, and he's come to a blunt conclusion: either he's jaded, or the flagship "superbike" just isn't that exciting. While the marketing suggests this is a category-defining machine, Josh explains why at $10,000 for the Hi-Mod (and more for the Lab71), the SuperSix has essentially become a clone of the Specialized Tarmac SL8 without actually hitting the same high marks. The crew discusses the "Tarmac-ification" of the all-around race bike and why the real winner of this launch is actually the $3,000 mechanical 105 build at the bottom of the range. The SuperSix launch is just the start of the episode. Mike Levy, Lisa Charlerbois, and Josh dive into the polarizing news of the upcoming Lance Armstrong movie starring Austin Butler. Does another big-screen biopic help or hurt the sport's image? The crew also tackles your listener questions, including the rise of Chinese wireless drivetrains, Mike's story of being chased through the dark by a "squadron" of squirrels, and whether radar is actually ruining the purity of the ride. Finally, Josh doubles down on the take that set the Velo comments section on fire: Hi-viz clothing is victim blaming. He explains why he's rejecting the "common sense" argument and why we need to stop shifting the burden of safety onto cyclists. 00:00 – Welcome to the show  01:53 – The Austin Butler/Lance Armstrong Movie Debate  08:17 – Listener Q&A  30:58 – Trek Check-Out Long Term: Ditching the "Dorky" Rack  36:07 – SuperSix EVO Gen 5: What Actually Changed, how the Lab71 compares to the Tarmac SL8 and Cervélo S5, and why the 105 mechanical build is what you be buying 50:13 – Wrap up and a tease about the Garmin 1050 and how it's possible the company made a mistake

Spencer Martin and Johan Bruyneel break down Remco Evenepoel's dominant Volta Valenciana victory and what it tells us about the upcoming showdown with the sport's major stars. They also debate how Jonas Vingegaard's coach abruptly leaving the team at the start of the season will affect the GC star, and what it means when combined with Visma's mounting issues, before wrapping up by discussing the news that up-and-coming Hollywood star Austin Butler will be portraying Lance Armstrong in an Ed Berger director/Zach Baylin-penned biopic, including who they think should play Johan.

The conversation continues on Discourse, for our Science of Sport Supporters. Join now with a small monthly pledge for access to the best sports science discussion community aroundIn the Spotlight this week, we revisit a recurring theme to explore whether a paper claiming no advantage for males who identify as women has any validity, and we cover some news from the world of sport and health.17:31 Our main focus is on a systematic review, published last week, claiming that evidence suggests no physical differences and thus no sporting advantages in trans identified males. We explain why the paper is misleading, and how the authors and journal ignored very obvious flaws in the research to arrive at their concussion.1:31 We also discuss an interview given by Imane Khelif in which the Algerian boxer confirms what was already widely known about male advantage, as well as some surprising details about suppressing testosterone, and defiance and denial about male advantage.36:44 In sports action, Femke Bol made an 800m debut indoors - we discuss the performance and what it tells us of her ceiling.43:20 Serena Williams is making a return, but appeared in a Superbowl halftime advertisement to promote ozempic for weight loss, which triggered a wave of criticism and fear about the displacement of exercise, diet and responsibillty for weight loss. We consider the arguments.50:52 Continuous glucose monitors are in the spotlight, after a range were recalled for providing inaccurate data, which has lead to death and injury in people misled by dodgy data. We discuss the matter in the context of how wearables have to, at a minimum, provide accurate information when decision making will change on the basis of that information.And finally, a Lance Armstrong movie is imminent, and Hollie Davidson referees a Six Nations match at the weekend. We end with brief thoughts.LinksThe systematic review on transgender womenA previous systematic review, minus the meta-analysis, that reaches the opposite conclusion by focusing on non cross-sectional researchThe Imane Khelif interviewThe Serena Superbowl AdvertStory on the recall of continuous glucose monitorsHollie Davidson interview ahead of her Six Nations debut this weekend Hosted on Acast.

He draws on research and original reporting-taking us inside an unlikely brotherhood of thirty-three men who were trapped in a Chilean mine, a tiny Michigan deli that blossomed into a $90 million ecosystem of businesses, an inventive Dutch soccer team that revolutionized the sport as we know it, and a disconnected Paris district that remade itself into a tight-knit neighborhood-to reveal the principles and practices that ignite and sustain thriving. He finds that flourishing groups do two things: They make meaning (creating deep connections) and build community (forging a common good).

The BikeRadar news podcast returns, with Simon von Bromley joining Jack Luke to unpack the biggest cycling tech stories of the week. They start with a first look at a new time trial bike spotted under Tadej Pogačar, which appears purpose-built for the Tour de France.  Next up is the Factor Monza. Offering much of the speed and ride feel of Factor's flagship models for a lower price, the pair break down whether this more affordable option still delivers the performance that matters. They then turn to two stories from the wider cycling world: an AI-powered Bradley Wiggins coaching service launching from £5 per month, and the announcement of a Lance Armstrong biopic made with his approval. Are virtual coaches the future - and should Armstrong's story be told on screen at all?  And finally Jack and Simon finish with last week's top story on BikeRadar.com and a rant of the week curtesy of Jack and a six-year-old Rapha jacket.

The Cycling Podcast returns with another debrief from the latest round of early-season racing, this week focusing on the Volta Comunitat Valenciana and the Tour of Oman.Daniel Friebe, Lionel Birnie and Rob Hatch discuss Remco Evenepoel's most recent tour de force in Spain and Astana's similarly fast start to the season, with Christian Scaroni winning in the Middle East. Scaroni also lays claim to one of the best nicknames in the pro peloton (clue in the episode title), but we learn that a new contender for that title may have emerged in Oman. It was a busy week on other fronts, with Jonas Vingegaard's coach leaving Visma-Lease a Bike, Marc Soler dragged into a minor family drama in Spain, and news of a new Lance Armstrong biopic.

Marina Zenovich is a two-time Emmy Award-winning documentarian who's built a career taking on some of pop culture's most complex and controversial figures. From Roman Polanski to Lance Armstrong to Robin Williams to Richard Pryor, her specialty is getting past tricky, evasive subjects to uncover something real. Marina joins guest host Talia Schlanger to talk about her latest CNN documentary, I'm Chevy Chase and You're Not, and how she cuts through celebrity myth to find the human underneath.

This week, James and Will are joined by Scottish ex-pro turned team manager, commentator and pundit, Brian Smith.Brian cut his teeth in the 1980s at the school of cycling hardknocks, ACBB – Athletic Club de Boulogne-Billancourt – in Paris, whose alumni include Jacques Anquetil, Stephen Roche and Pippa York, before turning pro with the legendary British Banana team in 1991. Three successful seasons followed including his first British national road race title, which led to Brian catching the eye of the Motorola team bosses. He signed for the American outfit in 1994, and went on to race alongside Lance Armstrong, Andy Hampsten and Phil Anderson. Brian won his second British national road race title that same year, but as we discuss in our chat, despite such success he found himself disillusioned and on the outside of a sport he loved as cycling embroiled itself in its darkest doping years – something Brian wanted no part of. He hung up his racing wheels in 1996 but returned to the pro-peloton in 2011 as directeur sportif for Endura Racing, where he stayed as it evolved into MTN-Qhubeka then Dimension Data, before retiring in 2014.Today, Brian can be found with a microphone in hand as a commentator and pundit for Eurosport, and among other parts of that job, Brian discusses his love of commentating and watching the lesser-known Tour of Hellas, a five-stage race around Greece which this year takes place between 6th and 10th of May, so keep an eye out for that one.There are probably few people with as much experience across the last four decades of cycling as Brian, and certainly few people who talk so candidly about everything from being invited into 'the program' by Lance Armstrong, to having a snake thrown into his shower by Shane Sutton. So get the kettle, pin back your lugholes and listen to this one.Interview begins at 3.44------------------The Tour of Hellas in Greece is a five stage race taking place from 6th - 10th May 2026.
