What would you do if you were just sentenced to 25 years in prison, and the same week you are informed your 4 year old son has cancer? Jim Brock is my guest this week, and that is exactly what Jim was faced with. His son survived and Jim refers to him as his hero. Brock was a 1st Team All State Soccer Player at Lindbergh High School. Grades kept him off his senior year team, and the dark slide started. Jim shares how he mentally tackled a life in prison without losing himself in prison. Stray Rescue has a program with the prison for dogs who are not adoptable. Prisoners work and train these dogs. Jim became a champion of this program, eventually training 16 dogs that ended up being adopted with their forever home families. Jim found a lot of commonality with these dogs being neglected, caged, disappointments, and forgotten. Brock describes how incredible mentors showed up unexpectedly at different times in his life and created hope and a focused lifeline. Jim took the reins and became a leader and inspiration for other inmates with Washington University's Associate Program and eventually Bachelor Degree Program. He earned both while incarcerated. Jim is now home. A lot has changed in 20 years, but he has hit the ground running. He shares what he is doing now, and his dream of what he wants to do with his dog training. Jim says it is never TOO LATE! Man has he lived those words! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Sandy Olive, an English teacher at Lindbergh High School, on making her debut on "Jeopardy!".

This week on The Roe Show, I sit down with MMA fighter, Derik Scott ("The Law") to discuss few of his endeavours, including his appearance on the Titan's Show with Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, his background in Gymnastics and Trampoline, then his pursuit of a Law degree and his rise to fame as a local favourite in the MMA world in St. Louis, Missouri at Shamrock FC. Derik, besides running his St. Louis legal practice, is also a personal training coach, health & fitness expert and legal council. There are not a lot of lawyers out there who can add MMA fighter and television sports competitor to their resume, but then again there are not a lot of lawyers like Derik Scott of St. Louis, Mo. Scott, a graduate of Lindbergh High School, Lindenwood University and Baylor School of Law had his network television debut last year as a contestant on The Rock's new highly publicized competition series The Titan Games. Scott, who recently moved to Los Angeles said he was trying out for season 10 of American Ninja Warrior when he found out about The Titan Games. He was still in the running for American Ninja Warrior but once he heard about the new show he switched gears. He even holds a Guinness record with his brother Zeke. “It was the most backflips on a Swiss ball between two people in one minute,” he said. "The crazy thing about that record-setting feat was that a television network in China contacted them to do a similar competition and Zeke was unable to do it but Shaun was able to fill in. Shaun and I both flew separately to China and met each other there, never having even practiced together, but prepared in our minds to perform it in front the crowd and on television." Derik, with his background in gymnastics and trampoline was also a judge at the 2019 GTGamesUS in California, where he met the #gtramp community for the first time. It was an incredible experience to see what these kids could do on a trampoline. I loved it!" said Derik.   Twitter: https://twitter.com/derikaspenscott Facebook: https://m.facebook.com/DerikTheLawScott/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/derikaspenscott/ www.ScottHealthAndFitness.com   For more information on Derik follow him on: https://www.tapology.com/fightcenter/fighters/116506-derik-scott For personal coaching contact Derik here - https://procoach.app/derik-scott Video about his appearance on the Titan Games - https://mymmanews.com/derik-scott-the-rock-shamrock-fc-324/ #TheRoeShow #GRTnetwork
