Podcasts about little league

Steve Trevino jokse about coaching little league in his Netflix special, "Simple Man".

If there's one thing that gets people's blood pumpin', it's sports. All over the world on any given day, you can find people getting into passionate arguments about whose team has a better chance of making the playoffs, or the finals, or the World Cup or whatever. Sometimes there are fisticuffs involved! There are pubs in Scotland where you're not allowed to wear your football team colors, for fear of a brawl breaking out. In my hometown, when our college team won a big basketball game, people would celebrate by turning over cars and setting stuff on fire. Parents often treat their elementary school kids' Little League games like the fate of the free world is at stake. My point is, people get INTENSE about this stuff. And things can get real, real weird. This week, we bring you two stories that exemplify that weirdness.Case 1: The Wild Lies of Kevin Hart.

Maintaining Consistent Customer Service Standards Across Every Location  Shep interviews Ray Titus, CEO of United Franchise Group (UFG). They discuss embracing change, balancing creativity and standards, and maintaining consistency across over 1,800 franchises in over 80 countries.  This episode of Amazing Business Radio with Shep Hyken answers the following questions and more:    How can businesses maintain consistent customer service across different industries?  How does staff training influence customer satisfaction?  How does community involvement enhance customer loyalty?  Can one employee's actions shape the reputation of an entire franchise network?  How does embracing technological change improve customer experience?  Top Takeaways:    Different types of businesses may require different standards when it comes to their products and procedures. However, customer experience standards like being easy to do business with and maintaining excellent customer communication can be applied to any industry.   Delivering a consistent level of service helps customers know what to expect, no matter which location or brand they visit. It's this consistency that builds trust and a strong reputation over time.  Every business and leader must be receptive to change, whether it is new technology, rising customer expectations, or new regulations. Companies need to keep learning and adapting to thrive.  Every employee, from new hires to experienced managers, represents the entire brand and all its locations the second they interact with a customer. Every person in the company must be trained and equipped to be the "CEO of the Moment" because a single moment can make or break the brand's reputation.   Becoming involved in the local community allows brands to stand out and build loyalty. This could mean supporting Little League teams, participating in school events, or helping with local charities. Customers appreciate it when brands support the causes that they care about. When a brand becomes "the most popular person in town," people will go out of their way to support it.  Training isn't something you did. It's something you do continuously and consistently. It isn't just about teaching people how to do their jobs. It's about sharing company values, customer service best practices, and keeping up to date with the standards for each type of business.  Examine every touchpoint in a customer's journey and try to make it the best in the world. Businesses can set themselves apart by making little improvements in each interaction that add up to an unforgettable experience for customers.  Plus, Shep and Ray talk about Will Guidara's concept of "unreasonable hospitality" that can be applied to all businesses, in every industry. Tune in!  Quote:   "Your employees must understand that what they say and do impacts others. When they interact with a customer, they represent not just themselves but the entire organization's reputation."  About:    Ray Titus is the CEO of United Franchise Group (UFG), a global leader in franchising. UFG and its affiliated brands currently have a presence in over 80 countries, with a network of over 1,800 franchise locations worldwide.      Shep Hyken is a customer service and experience expert, New York Times bestselling author, award-winning keynote speaker, and host of Amazing Business Radio.  Learn more about your ad choices.

Take time today to remember those who sacrificed Memorial Day is a U.S. holiday that's supposed to be about mourning the nation's fallen service members, but it's come to anchor the unofficial start of summer and a long weekend of travel and discounts on anything from mattresses to lawn mowers. Iraq War veteran Edmundo Eugenio Martinez Jr. said the day has lost so much meaning that many Americans "conflate and mix up Veterans Day, Memorial Day, Armed Forces Day, July Fourth." Social media posts pay tribute to "everyone" who has served, when Memorial Day is about those who died. For him, it's about honoring 17 U.S. service members he knew who lost their lives. "I was either there when they died or they were soldiers of mine, buddies of mine," said Martinez, 48, an Army veteran who lives in Katy, Texas, west of Houston. "Some of them lost the battle after the war." Steve Merando, who has marched in Cold Spring's Memorial Day parade since he was 10 years old, agreed. "People forget that Memorial Day is supposed to be a memorial to those who were killed in action while serving their country," said Merando, who served with the U.S. Navy Seabees from 1969 to 1973, including in Vietnam and Thailand. He played Little League baseball with Keith Livermore, one of three Philipstown residents killed in the Vietnam War. In Memoriam: Philipstown and Beacon Here is a look at the holiday and how it has evolved: When is Memorial Day? It falls on the last Monday of May, which this year is May 26. In Cold Spring, a parade will begin at 9 a.m. at Stone and Main streets and progress to Cold Spring Cemetery in Nelsonville for a ceremony. Hot dogs and refreshments will follow at the American Legion. Rain or shine. In Beacon, a ceremony will be held at 11 a.m. at 413 Main St. It will include the dedication of a plaque to mark the 100th anniversary of the Veterans Memorial Building, which was completed in 1925. Why is Memorial Day celebrated? It's a day of reflection and remembrance of those who died while serving in the U.S. military. The holiday is observed in part by the National Moment of Remembrance, which encourages all Americans to pause at 3 p.m. for a moment of silence. What are the origins of Memorial Day? The holiday's origins can be traced to the American Civil War, which killed more than 600,000 service members - both Union and Confederate - between 1861 and 1865. The first national observance of what was then called Decoration Day occurred on May 30, 1868, after an organization of Union veterans called for decorating war graves with flowers, which were in bloom. The practice was already widespread. Waterloo, New York, in Seneca County, began a formal observance on May 5, 1866, and was later proclaimed to be the holiday's birthplace. Yet Boalsburg, Pennsylvania, traced its first observance to October 1864. And women in some Confederate states were decorating graves before the war's end. David Blight, a Yale history professor, points to May 1, 1865, when as many as 10,000 people, many of them Black, held a parade, heard speeches and dedicated the graves of Union dead in Charleston, South Carolina. A total of 267 Union troops had died at a Confederate prison and were buried in a mass grave. After the war, members of Black churches buried them in individual graves. "What happened in Charleston does have the right to claim to be first, if that matters," Blight told the Associated Press in 2011. When did Memorial Day become a source of contention? As early as 1869, The New York Times wrote that the holiday could become "sacrilegious" and no longer "sacred" if it focused more on pomp, dinners and oratory. In an 1871 Decoration Day speech at Arlington National Cemetery, abolitionist Frederick Douglass said he feared Americans were forgetting the Civil War's impetus: enslavement. "We must never forget that the loyal soldiers who rest beneath this sod flung themselves between the nation and the nation's destroyers," Douglass said. His concern...

#12WeeksToPeak #negotiation #SelfImprovement #LifeLessons In this conversation, I sit down with Andres Lares, a negotiation expert, to discuss the intricacies of negotiation, leadership, and sales training. Believe it or not, we get into the importance of goodwill in business relationships. (I always leave a little meat on the bone so my prospects and business partners want to come back to work with me.)As The Sales Whisperer®, of course, we discuss the value of training.As a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu practitioner, I discuss being adaptable as a key component of a negotiation training program.As an Air Force veteran, we get into the role of leadership in employee retention. (Unfortunately, leadership is sparse in the military, the private sector, schools, churches, HOAs, PTAs, Little League, and everywhere in between...But I digress.)As usual, balance is key in business and in life, so we look at the need for creating a balance between structure and flexibility in sales processes, as well as the significance of self-reflection and feedback for personal growth."The worst-case scenario is not a no."We agree on the philosophy of incremental improvement and the necessity of practice and preparation in negotiation and in life.We also agree on the intricacies of negotiation and the importance of tailored training for effective communication. You must understand the buyer's perspective and maintain integrity in your business: prospecting, selling, and fulfillment roles.As we say in the military, the more you bleed in training, the less you bleed in battle, so we dive into the significance of preparation, emotional intelligence, and the role of negotiation training in building confidence and credibility.Finally, Lares shares insights on the challenges of hiring skilled facilitators and the value of asking the right questions to uncover the truth in negotiations."Nothing convinces like conviction."GUEST INFO:Guest Site: https://www.shapironegotiations.com/resources/books/Guest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andreslares/Guest X: https://x.com/sninegotiationsGuest Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/shapiro_negotiations_institute/00:00 Introduction to Negotiation and Leadership02:49 The Power of Nice in Negotiation06:08 Value-Based Negotiation Strategies09:05 The Importance of Training and Adaptability11:59 Balancing Structure and Flexibility in Sales14:55 The Role of Leadership in Employee Retention18:10 Investing in People for Long-Term Success20:56 The Incremental Improvement Philosophy24:04 The Role of Feedback and Self-Reflection27:11 The Importance of Practice and Preparation30:48 The Art of Negotiation and Training39:41 Understanding the Buyer's Perspective42:15 The Importance of Integrity in Sales46:43 Tailored Training for Effective Negotiation53:19 Books and Resources for Negotiation SkillsNot for the mediocre majority: Learn how I get more done in a quarter than most achieve in a decade in 12 Weeks To Peak™ https://wesschaeffer.com/12wConnect with me:X -- https://X.com/saleswhispererInstagram -- https://instagram.com/saleswhispererLinkedIn -- http://www.linkedin.com/in/thesaleswhisperer/#12WeeksToPeak #SalesTraining #GoalSetting #PersonalDevelopment

Stu shared some insane stories, like how he gets 100% response rates by mailing personalized cartoons, and how someone landed a $2 million Walmart order from a $28 Facebook ad. I shared my own story of turning a $1,500 order and a few cold emails into a multi-million dollar business. We discussed everything from sending swords to CEOs, to using Venmo to get attention, to sponsoring Little League teams as a way to stand out.

RUNDOWN   Episode 334 kicks off with Hotshot Scott and Mitch riffing on state capitals, Montgomery, Alabama, and iconic pop culture from the 334 area code—including Nat King Cole, Captain & Tennille, and Terrence Long's infamous run-in with Ichiro's arm. They also share their reactions to the Pope from Chicago and the Mariners' concerning sweep at the hands of the Blue Jays. Is the dream fading, or is it a blip on the radar? The guys break down the offense's struggles, the alarming state of the pitching staff, and what comes next with the Yankees and Padres looming. Mitch and Jason Puckett debut the crossover show where the guys mix sports, parenting, and old-school radio storytelling with a signature Puck and Mitch touch.

When a baseball connects perfectly with the bat and sails over the fence, there's a special feeling that stays with you forever. That magical moment—one that Clearwater Little League board member Amanda Cole hopes every child experiences—sits at the heart of our latest conversation about youth sports, community building, and creating future leaders.Fresh off our successful fundraiser that raised $3,500 for the league, Amanda reveals what makes Clearwater Little League special beyond the typical base hits and strikeouts. With over 360 players each season, their programs extend far beyond traditional baseball, including six Challengers teams that provide children and adults with disabilities the opportunity to experience America's pastime. Every fall, they host the statewide Challenger jamboree, welcoming teams from across Florida for a weekend celebration of inclusive baseball.Behind the pristine fields and impressive facilities lies a volunteer-driven organization tackling significant challenges. Hurricane damage last season forced the closure of five fields, while annual expenses—including a surprising $10,000 just for baseballs—require continuous fundraising efforts. Yet through careful stewardship, registration fees remain remarkably affordable ($35 for T-Ball), ensuring financial barriers don't prevent participation. The league provides equipment for newcomers and creates a supportive environment where players can develop confidence while building relationships with caring adults.Amanda's vision for the future includes doubling their softball program and increasing female representation in coaching and umpiring roles. However, with seven fields already booked from afternoon until night throughout the season, community support through sponsorships (ranging from $600 to $25,000) and volunteering has never been more crucial to their continued growth.Whether you're looking to register a player, volunteer your time, or support youth development through sponsorship, visit clearwaterlittleleague.com today to discover how you can help build brave, honest leaders who care about their community both on and off the diamond.

The exhibition, “Going to Work for the Community: A Visual History of the Beckum-Stapleton Little League” explores the history of the Beckum-Stapleton Little League baseball team in Milwaukee.

Sports can be highly instructive. Much of what I have discovered about life comes from the baseball diamond. These are ten valuable life lessons that the game of baseball has taught me. 1) You have to adjust to the curve & bad hops2) Umps are bound to make bad calls3) Keep your eye on the ball4) Hope springs eternal5) It's the little things that matter most6) It's a team game7) Take your cuts8) Not everyone can play short or bat fourth9) Moms matter most10) You only get to play so many seasonsListeners, please subscribe to Heavy Hitter Sports wherever you listen to podcasts so that you don't miss any future episodes.

On today's Daily Puck Drop, Jason “Puck” Puckett is joined by Jim Moore at the start of the show and then Puck plays a portion of The Sports Pit podcast with Steve Sandmeyer and Matt “Stretch” Johnson. Puck and Jim start off talking about Jim's visit to Pullman to move his kids out and Puck wonders if the loosely tied furniture he had tied to his truck made it all the way from Bend, Oregon to Pullman.  They still laugh at the success of the Mariners, and yet Puck is still worried that the other shoe will drop on the team, but they are playing a very entertaining style of baseball right now that looks like it will carry over for the entire summer.   Before Jim leaves, they make fun of all the Seahawks rookie minicamp talk and Puck tells Jim about his son having a perfect game broken up in Little League. After Jim says goodbye, Puck plays a portion of The Sports Pit with Steve Sandmeyer and Matt “Stretch” Johnson where they discuss a lot about the NHL playoffs because they recored the episode during Game 7 between the Jets and Blues and Stretch is a huge hockey fan.  They marvel at the toughness and sportsmanship of hockey. Puck wraps up the show with, “Hey, What the Puck!?”  No better tradition in sports than the handshake line in hockey.  Nothing compares. (2:37) Puck and Jim (51:41) The Sports Pit (1:22:55) “Hey, What the Puck!?”
