In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Prof. Albert Cheng of Ohio State University and Pioneer Senior Fellow Charlie Chieppo speak with NYT-bestselling author Jane Leavy about Hall of Fame pitcher Sandy Koufax. She traces his journey from a Jewish upbringing in Brooklyn to becoming one of baseball's most dominant players and one of the 20th century's most principled public figures. Leavy discusses Koufax's brief collegiate career, his raw but electric pitching style, and his leap to the Brooklyn Dodgers with no minor league experience. She explores his early inconsistency and control issues, and his transformation into a power pitcher who led the National League in strikeouts by 1961. She highlights his legendary peak from 1962–1966, including multiple Cy Young Awards, four no-hitters, and World Series brilliance. Leavy also revisits his iconic decision to sit out Game 1 of the 1965 World Series on Yom Kippur, his forced retirement due to arthritis at age 30, and his enduring legacy as a symbol of excellence, integrity, and cultural identity in American sports history itself. In closing, she reads a passage from Sandy Koufax: A Lefty's Legacy.

Producer and Co-Choreographer of Mná na hÉireann, Carol Leavy Joyce, joins Dermot in studio.

We're back in business with a slightly different show this week as Conan Byrne dials in to join Canadian based Dan to reflect on the season so far and magic moments in Montreal for Dawson Devoy, Kian Leavy and Adam Brennan. We hear from Kian in a shameless Ardee themed segment before discussing the challenges faced by Dawson in an appearance where he was occasionally left up shit creek. There's a mid-season themed mailbag with some Derry angst, more Robbie Benson goal nostalgia and a farewell to the verucas. There's also the quiz question that wasn't and some Conan halfway line goal nostalgia, all made possible by our friends at Collar & Cuff, Future Ticketing, Planify and Chido, our favourite Mexican themed lager.

In an incredible coincidence, three sisters, Mary Noonan, Majella Murtagh and Patricia Faulkner, were all diagnosed with breast cancer within months of each other. We heard their stories and who now along with country music star brother Matt Leavy, want to give back to two local organisations that assisted them immensely when going through treatment and recovery.

For hard-core baseball folks, for anyone who cares for the future of the game, veteran baseball writer Jane Leavy compels attention with her provocative book, Make Me Commissioner: I Know What's Wrong With Baseball And How To Fix It (Grand Central, 2025). Our conversation focuses on her proposed solutions to the core problem of a sport in the destructive grip of a data-driven analytics mindset. For example, because the numbers crowd dictates that hitters should swing for the fences, they too often strike out, and home runs themselves, she says, have become boring. Her fix: wrap plexiglass around the outfield wall at every major-league ballpark, so that each wall is a uniform eighteen feet high. That way, teams will be forced to invest in speedy players able to hit lots of exciting doubles and triples. Leavy may not become commissioner, but out of her deep love for the game, and with edgy good humor, she is forcing an overdue scrutiny of what was once known as America's National Pastime.

Few writers have illuminated baseball's legends with the depth, rigor, and heart of renowned sports journalist and author Jane Leavy.  From Sandy Koufax to Mickey Mantle to Babe Ruth, her biographies of the game's greatest figures don't just recount their lives — they reveal the eras each helped to define. Now, with her new book Make Me Commissioner: I Know What's Wrong with Baseball and How to Fix It, Leavy turns her sharp eye and seasoned reporting toward the sport itself, asking what's broken, what's worth preserving, and how its lost magic might be restored. In this episode, we sit down with Leavy for a wide-ranging conversation that blends her unparalleled knowledge of baseball history with a candid assessment of its present challenges — analytics overload, youth development crises, dwindling diversity, and the struggle to balance spectacle with spontaneity. She also shares her imaginative, sometimes provocative, ideas for how the game could evolve in the years ahead. For longtime fans, casual observers, and anyone who cares about the soul of America's pastime, this episode delivers a masterclass in baseball storytelling — and a glimpse into the possible futures of the game from one of its finest chroniclers.  PLUS: Your chance to win a copy of "Make Me Commissioner"! + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW:  Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: https://www.teepublic.com/?ref_id=35106 BUY THE BOOK (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!):  "Make Me Commissioner: I Know What's Wrong with Baseball and How to Fix It": https://amzn.to/4paR6iX SPONSOR THANKS (AND SUPPORT THE SHOW!):  Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts U-Arkansas Prof. Albert Cheng and Pioneer Senior Fellow Charlie Chieppo interview award-winning journalist and New York Times bestselling author Jane Leavy. Ms. Leavy discusses her lifelong love of baseball, and her forthcoming book, Make Me Commissioner: I Know What's Wrong with Baseball and How to Fix It, which comes out in September. She reflects on the magic of the Cape Cod Baseball League, contrasting it with today's Major League Baseball, and explores the commissioner's role since the tenure of Bart Giamatti in the 1980s. Leavy examines how labor disputes, steroid scandals, and the rise of Big Data have reshaped the game, fueling declining popularity, unprecedented pitcher injuries, and frustration among fans and Hall of Famers alike. At the same time, she highlights ways in which analytics have boosted performance at cutting-edge training centers like Driveline in Washington State. She shares candid insights on MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred's media ambitions, the sport's future, and her vision for restoring baseball's timeless beauty. In closing, Ms. Leavy reads a passage from her book, Make Me Commissioner: I Know What's Wrong with Baseball and How to Fix It.

Send us a textIn this Mental Minute episode, dive into the saga of 'The Showman and the Steadfast,' two baseball legends whose contrasting lives shaped an era. One, a larger-than-life figure, fueled his days with towering breakfasts, whiskey, and wild nights; the other, a paragon of discipline, started with oatmeal and relentless dedication. Explore how their habits—chaos versus order—crafted iconic legacies without one path being 'right.' Join us for a quick, thought-provoking journey into their triumphs, trials, and timeless lessons.Youtube Episode Link: https://youtu.be/TtXs7UUbCXkResearch Notes: Babe Ruth (“The Big Fella”): Biographies (e.g., Leavy's “The Big Fella”) detail his gluttony—18-egg omelets, bootleg whiskey, and cigars. His 1925 collapse and 1932 “called shot” are well-documented. Career: 714 home runs, 60 in 1927. Lou Gehrig (“The Luckiest Man”): Eig's “Luckiest Man” describes his simple diet, rigorous training, and ALS diagnosis in 1939, ending his 2,130-game streak. His July 4, 1939, speech is iconic.

Very often on TatD, I seek out guests I don't know all that well because it's fun to get to chat with and learn about new people, but sometimes it's fun to sit down with friends you're known a long, long time. And such is the case on this episode with my two guests, both of whom play in a Philly band I have been close with for twenty years. We've played countless shows together, in front of thousands of people, and they've both played music with me in my bands and projects. One of them has produced records of mine, one has done a vast amount of the graphic design on my projects. I'm talking about my longtime pals from the band Jealousy Curve - lead vocalist Michael Leavy and guitarist Steven LaFashia.. known more commonly to most as Leavy and Fash.I met up with these two at one of my favorite spots in Delco: the Country Squire, the spot of many post-show meals back in the day. The place looked great after all these years, if a little desolate, as we were the only customers in the dining room at noon on a weekday. Times are tough for some of these classic restaurants, I'm not gonna lie. All the more reason to have our chat at this beloved meeting place.Over chicken & waffles and omelettes, we talked about the Jealousy Curve's origins and I marveled at the fact that they have weathered some of life's ultimate challenges, with some substantial breaks in their timeline, and yet have re-emerged in 2025 (after our sold out co-bill at Ardmore Music Hall back in December of '24) more determined than ever to do the thing they've been doing together since Leavy and Fash met on the first day high school -  collaborate on making music that is simultaneously heavy, beautiful, and thought provoking..  as good as rock music gets.I hope you enjoy this deep dive into the life and times of one of Philadelphia's most beloved rock bands!~ JKF ❤️

To put it simply, Michael Leavy was born a filmmaker. Ever since he learned what a movie was he has dreamed of making them. Fortunately, it didn't take long for that dream to become a reality. Michael began shooting his own films and taught himself how to edit at an early age and has perfected his craft ever since. From the early days of using a paper-towel roll to scroll credits, all the way through mastering Final Cut Pro and Adobe Premiere, his passion has never left. Michael almost single-handedly ran his high school's television studio; anchoring the show each morning and creating more skits and short films than anyone else in the studio's history. Michael received his Bachelor's Degree in TV & Film from Saint John's University and also took graduate classes to further his knowledge. In 2010 Michael Leavy, along with his brother Jason Leavy and Steven Della Salla, established a production company, Fuzz on the Lens Productions. In 2014 Fuzz on the Lens' received worldwide fame with their viral 'Staten Island Clown" publicity stunt. Michael has directed/produced a comedy/fantasy entitled "Abnormal Attraction" starring Malcom McDowell, Gilbert Gottfried, Tyler Mane, Leslie Easterbrook, and academy award nominee Bruce Davison. Michael is most known for starring as 'Will the Exterminator' in the now cult classic original 'Terrifier". More recently, Michael was one of the Producers and the Assistant Director of the Top 10 Box Office success, "Terrifier 2" and is currently Directing / Producing Fuzz on the Lens Productions next horror feature, "Stream", which stars horror icons; Jeffrey Combs, Danielle Harris, Tony Todd, Tim Reid, Dee Wallace, Daniel Roebuck, Felissa Rose, Dave Sheridan, Mark Holton, Damian Maffei and Art the Clown himself, David Howard Thornton.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/steven-cuoco/support

Another Halloween has come and gone, and I hope you all had sufficiently spooky time. Lots of candy and fake blood and sexy costumes…why can't it be officially Halloween week? Soon it will be that most festive of holidays and I have to say, I love that one as much (full disclosure maybe more) because the sinister side of Christmas is masked by the most wholesome of veneers. We'll have lots of Christmas episodes for you unwrap but that's still a couple weeks out so in the meantime, we return you to our regularly scheduled programming.In this episode we are joined by one of the busiest guys in the world of horror filmmaking. He has produced a series of films that have become huge hits financially and created a new slasher icon in the mold of Freddy or Pennywise.He has a new film out that he directed titled “Stream”, and it has nearly every horror icon you can think of is in the cast (though friend of the podcast and genre royalty Jeffrey Combs really gets to shine here).The film also features and appearance by a genre legend that we have just lost, the formidable Tony Todd. I had the great privilege of having a friendship with Tony for almost 20 years and his talent, humour, thoughtfulness and kindness was unmatched. So, this episode is for Tony. Who loved his craft. Who loved movies, the people that made them and the people that watched them.Back to “Stream”, it's a raucous, funny, gory, inventive occasionally touching movie that brings the goods and then some. And again, there's the fantastic Jeffrey Combs performance! “ Stream” is streaming now.Joining us to talk about producing the hijinks of Art the Clown in “The Terrifier” films and taking on directing “Stream” is producer/director Michale Leavy. ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Today I speak with the fabulous Cheryl Leavy. Cheryl is a proud First Nations woman, who generously gave of her time to discuss her culture with me. She relates how we can approach First Nations people with tenderness in the health care setting and in general life. We discuss the diversity of our indigenous peoples differing countries and how important it is to just ask them about their cultures. Cheryl is a story teller and will soon be releasing her first book. She is passionate about her culture and indeed, all First Nation people's differing cultures, and how all Australians should be invested in understanding more about our First Nations peoples.  From the moment I met Cheryl, I was drawn to her. Her vibrancy, wisdom and willingness to share her knowledge (without judging my lack of knowledge) about her people was truly awe inspiring. I came away from this interview replaying the conversations over and over  in my head.   It's a true gift from someone when they can share knowledge about themself and that information makes you stop and reflect.  Chatting with Cheryl did just that for me. I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

For decades, firefighters at the Chicago Fire Department noticed an eerie hand print that left a permanent mark on a casement, which could not be washed, scraped or removed, despite several attempts. Legends circulated, and many believed that the handprint had a rather macabre history, belonging to a fellow firefighter. (The Ghostly Handprint of Francis Leavy) *** Ventriloquists don't have a lot of prestige when it comes to the entertainment industry – on many lists they are just one rung higher than a juggler. But they've been throwing their voices at us for centuries. And one man named James Burns was so good at his art, he was tossed into jail for it! (The Man Who Could Make Dead Fish Talk) *** A child murdering their parents is, thankfully, rare – but when it happens, it grabs headlines. But some of the reasons that a child gives for murdering his or her own mother can be downright shocking and unbelievable. (They Murdered Their Mothers) *** Just the word “lobotomy” brings images of cruelty, inhumane treatment under the guise of medicine, and a procedure that could more appropriately be labeled as torture. We'll look at a few cases of individuals who had a lobotomy performed on them… and the disturbing results.

Today's guests, Cheri Leavy, and Whitney Long are the founders of The Southern C. The Southern Coterie developed out of a mutual love for the South and passion for the people and unique businesses that shape the region. After achieving much success both personally and professionally in former careers with local and national publications, Whitney and Cheri decided to bring their shared interests together and create The Southern Coterie. Their dream was to cultivate a space in-person and online where like-minded individuals could connect and be inspired. For Cheri, born with a knack for instantly connecting with people, The Southern C seemed like a natural progression. From novice beginnings' writing a “cousin newsletter” to operating a successful online and print publishing business (Bulldawg Illustrated and guide2athens) with her husband, it's Cheri's enthusiasm and inspiration that has made the Southern Coterie and its live events – the Southern C Summits – a must visit for Southern entrepreneurs looking to make valuable connections. After a successful career as a scout, stylist and contributing editor for some of the biggest names in print media like Coastal Living, Southern Accents, Southern Living and Better Homes & Gardens plus various special interest titles, Whitney took time off to focus on her favorite job – being a mom to four – but the scouting didn't end there. Whitney draws on her years of curating unique places and people for the lifestyle magazine industry to create connections, find strategic partners and cultivate a talented team of writers and presenters.

Francis Leavy was a hero. A truly brave man. A firefighter. Very little, if anything, shook the manly and burly 1920's-era Chicago fireman. Until one day he came to work, having a panic attack. After some digging, he caved and told his fellow firefighters about a premonition. That he would die that day. Not only did this come to pass, but Francis Leavy may have left something behind. A signal. A sign. One that refused to be scrubbed away. ----------------- Visit us on the web- http://www.asylum817.com ----------------- to support the show, check us out on Patreon- http://www.patreon.com/asylum817 ----------------- DISTROKID AFFILIATE LINK: https://www.distrokid.com/vip/seven/3128872 ----------------- This episode was brought to you by Keep On Sharing!
