The Rams had one job—embarrass the Bears and give Packers fans something to celebrate—and they completely imploded instead. Ryan breaks down how Chicago continues to be the luckiest team in the NFL, with Matthew Stafford posting a passing grade in the 20s while Caleb Williams racked up five interceptions across two playoff games yet somehow keeps getting crowned as elite. The show shifts to the Matt LaFleur contract extension and why, despite the frustrating end to the season, keeping him was ultimately the right call. The biggest factor? Jordan Love is essentially a PhD in LaFleur's offensive system, and blowing that up carries enormous risk when the offense wasn't the problem. Ryan also addresses the organizational structure debate and why he doesn't have strong feelings about whether LaFleur reports to Gutekunst or directly to Murphy. Finally, deep dive into Raheem Morris as a potential defensive coordinator candidate. Despite being a hot name with head coaching experience, his track record reveals some concerning trends—his defenses in Atlanta ranked 29th and 12th, and his lone standout year in LA came with Aaron Donald already in place.

In this intellectually rich and surprisingly practical conversation, Bart sits down with Dr. Mike Orkin, distinguished statistician, professor, consultant, and author of The Story of Chance: Beyond the Margin of Error. Dr. Orkin explains how probability, randomness, and risk quietly shape our everyday decisions — from business and investing to gambling, medicine, and life itself. Through accessible examples involving dice, casinos, startups, lotteries, and leadership, he breaks down why luck feels powerful in the short term but fades in the long run, how skill changes outcomes, and why most people misunderstand chance entirely. This episode bridges mathematics, business strategy, and human behavior in a way that's eye‑opening, grounding, and deeply useful.Major Takeaways / LearningsLuck dominates the short run — skill dominates the long run. Repeated decisions reveal predictable outcomes over time.The Law of Averages explains why randomness eventually stabilizes. Outcomes converge toward probability with repetition.Expected value (EV) matters more than single outcomes. Winning once means nothing if the long‑term math is negative.Positive EV isn't enough — risk management matters. Over‑betting can destroy even the best strategies.The Kelly System teaches sustainable growth. Betting or investing a fixed fraction prevents catastrophic losses.Most people confuse correlation with causation. We're wired to see patterns that don't actually exist.Luck is a group phenomenon. In lotteries and mass events, someone wins — but your odds don't improve.Better decisions come from understanding uncertainty. Awareness of chance leads to smarter, calmer leadership.Memorable Quotes“Luck disappears in the long run.”“The important probability isn't that you win — it's that someone wins.”“Expected value tells you what happens over time, not today.”“Positive odds don't protect you if you bet everything.”“Most people don't understand the basic laws of chance.”“Good strategy beats good intentions when uncertainty is involved.”Why It Matters / How to Use ItThis episode helps listeners make better decisions in an unpredictable world. Whether you're starting a business, investing, leading a team, or navigating life's uncertainty, Dr. Mike Orkin's insights reveal how understanding probability reduces fear, improves judgment, and prevents costly mistakes. The conversation reframes luck not as magic or destiny, but as math — and shows how patience, discipline, and sound strategy create sustainable success. If you want to think more clearly, take smarter risks, and stop being fooled by randomness, this episode delivers timeless wisdom you can apply immediately.

What if your brain isn't simply reacting to reality — but actively predicting it?In this conversation, Timothy Schultz speaks with Dr. Srini Pillay, Harvard-trained psychiatrist and neuroscientist, about how the brain shapes perception, belief, intuition, and what many people describe as “luck.”Rather than approaching the law of attraction as a belief system, Dr. Pillay explains it through neuroscience — including how visualization, emotion, attention, and expectation influence what we notice and how we act.Topics include the brain as a prediction machine, intuition and dreams, heart–brain coherence, unfocused awareness, and why openness may matter more than effort when it comes to opportunity.This is a grounded, thoughtful conversation for anyone interested in the science behind intuition, meaning, and the inner life.Hosted by Timothy Schultz, Powerball winner and creator of Lottery, Dreams & Fortune.

What We Learned Without a Game In the offseason life comes at you fast. The Detroit Lions are sitting on a 9-8 season and a clear mandate. Fix the roster. Get better. Get back to the postseason in 2026. The belief remains that Dan Campbell and Brad Holmes have earned the benefit of the doubt after four straight winning years. The NFL does not wait. Results matter now. Grey underscores the league's ruthless pace. Look around at Pete Carroll, Jonathan Gannon, Brian Daboll, Raheem Morris, Brian Callahan, Kevin Stefanski, Mike McDonald, and John Harbaugh. Tenures shift. Reputations shift. If the Lions miss the mark this offseason, the heat rises. Campbell and Holmes get the one-year reprieve to steer this roster. If the step forward does not happen, that seat gets hot in a hurry. Extra Time and the Staff Fix Exiting early stings, but the calendar helps. No playoff prep means time and attention can move to the coaching staff. The recent past showed how that can slip. John Morton arrived and then exited. Now the Lions need an offensive coordinator, with other staff decisions on deck. January without game plans opens hours for interviews, evaluation, and structure. This is where detail matters. Identify the offensive identity. Match it with the next play caller. Build the room the right way. The roster has talent. The Lions must align scheme and staff to it. The extra weeks should sharpen choices and shorten mistakes. That is the kind of edge this organization needs to reclaim momentum in the NFL. Across Lake Michigan: Ben's Bears Change the Math Ben might be a problem. He is winning playoff games with the Chicago Bears. He is teaching a young roster how to close even when the stat sheet says otherwise. Turnovers keep showing up. Point differential keeps getting defied. The Packers went down in flames, followed by that overdone WrestleMania handshake. It was funny. It was also a warning. There is a reality check built in. The Bears still have the NFC West gauntlet ahead. A sophomore slump can happen. Luck on turnovers can flip. But for a first season with a young quarterback who needed psychological repair, this is real progress. It changes the neighborhood. The Lions cannot count on drift in the division to help. They have to set the pace. Draft Wish List, Early and Different The draft talk has started. The show teased an early wish list. It is different than most, and it is early by design. The Lions need targeted pieces, not noise. The approach reflects the offseason theme. Clear eyes. Tight priorities. No wasted motion. Detroit has the time right now. Use it, and 2026 remains in play. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qRExA5Bann4 #detroitlions #lions #detroitlionspodcast #nfl #dancampbell #bradholmes #offensivecoordinator #johnmorton #hotseat #postseasonin2026 #chicagobears #turnovers #pointdifferential #nfcwest #greenbaypackers #mikemcdonald #johnharbaugh Learn more about your ad choices.

Corporal Jim Lancia is (to the best of our knowledge) the only 56 guest to have been ambushed with a Tommy gun. He has so many tales of adventure and danger that he said getting stabbed under his vest during a domestic wasn't even a big deal compared to all the times he's been shot at. After years as a law enforcement officer in Pennsylvania, plus a stint training K-9s for Navy SEALs, he came to the Pinellas County Sheriff's Office. (He passed up on an offer from NASA SWAT, which means working at our agency is cooler than… er, fighting aliens? Or is that Space Force? We're really not sure.) While here, he's worked on the beaches and in the Marine Unit for a welcome change from snow and slush in the concrete jungle. Right now he's in the Training Division, keeping PCSO on the forefront of the most innovative technology, including our groundbreaking use of Virtual Reality. Hear about how he was first on scene at a mass shooting, how he put his life on the line for $5.25 an hour, and why he loved working with the beautiful chaos that is a Belgian Malinois. He says he's been shot at so many times that he shouldn't be here talking to us now, but his career shows that in police work, luck's not a tactic, but it's a very real thing.Email us your questions and suggestions at lets56@pcsonet.comFollow PCSO: Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | YouTubeFollow 56: InstagramPCSO Website

Episode 188 - Just My Luck (1957) "Choose Your Entertainment With "WISDOM"!!" Just My Luck (1957) is a sparkling slice of postwar British comedy that captures both the optimism and the charm of its era. Starring the ever-appealing Norman Wisdom as Norman Hackett, a humble jeweller's apprentice with big dreams, the film follows his hapless but heartfelt attempts to turn his fortunes around. Norman, eternally late and forever in trouble at work, is secretly besotted with glamorous shop assistant Anne (delightfully played by Jill Dixon). When he overhears that she's a fan of racing, he decides to risk everything by placing a series of bets—turning a simple flutter into a full-blown adventure. What follows is a joyful run of misunderstandings, slapstick chaos and bursts of romantic idealism, all propelled by Wisdom's trademark physical comedy and irrepressible energy. He tumbles, stumbles, and careens through life with that winning mix of innocence and determination that made him Britain's favourite underdog. The climax at the racetrack—where Norman's luck finally turns in spectacular fashion—delivers a perfectly timed payoff that leaves audiences smiling. Behind the laughter, Just My Luck shows the craftsmanship of director John Paddy Carstairs, who had honed Wisdom's screen persona across several Ealing-flavoured comedies. Shot at Pinewood Studios, the film's brisk pacing, colourful sets, and lively orchestral score give it a polish that stands out among the decade's feel-good comedies. On release, it proved another box-office hit for Wisdom, confirming his status as the British everyman who could make misfortune look hilarious. Critics admired its warmth and verve, and audiences adored its blend of humour, heart, and a touch of fantasy—the notion that sheer enthusiasm might be enough to change one's destiny. Buoyant, bright, and brimming with optimism, Just My Luck remains a charming reminder that sometimes fortune really does favour the foolishly brave.

Episode 228: In early January, advice is everywhere. Friends offer encouragement. Social media fills with tidy aphorisms. But beneath the flood of guidance sits an uncomfortable question we rarely confront: How much of what happens to us is actually within our control? Hosts Richard Kyte and Scott Rada take on that question by examining the role chance plays in shaping lives — and how ignoring it can distort the way people judge themselves and others. The conversation begins with a familiar moment: times of transition. New jobs, moves, health scares and relationship changes often leave people searching for direction. Those moments, Rada notes, are when advice feels most powerful — and most dangerous. Kyte argues that advice often sounds wiser in hindsight than it truly is, especially when people mistake favorable outcomes for proof that certain paths were inevitable. Throughout the episode, the hosts explore why stories of achievement tend to emphasize effort and intention while quietly overlooking randomness, timing, and circumstance. That omission, they suggest, fuels harsh self-judgment and unfair assumptions about others. When things go well, people feel deserving. When they do not, blame comes easily. Kyte draws on philosophy, behavioral research and personal experience to explain how probability, preparation and habit matter — but never operate alone. A discussion of health decisions, including lifestyle changes prompted by medical warning signs, illustrates how agency and uncertainty coexist rather than compete. Doing the “right” things, Kyte says, increases odds but never guarantees results.

Why does life feel like a repetitive loop? If you are working harder than ever but still seeing the same mediocre results, the problem isn't your effort; it's your resonance. In Episode 133, Dr. JC Doornick breaks down the science of the Interface Response System (IRS) to explain why life doesn't respond to your wants, but to your consistent output. Moving beyond basic "Law of Attraction" cliches, this episode dives into the physics of frequency and nervous system patterns. In this episode, you'll learn: The Physics of Resonance: Why "your vibe attracts your tribe" is a biological reality, not just a catchy phrase. The IRS Framework: How to identify the internal signal you are unknowingly broadcasting to the world. Breaking the Loop: Why fixing outcomes is a losing game and how to retune the "source signal" instead. The Honest Echo: How to audit your current reality to understand your internal frequency. Stop chasing opportunities and start attracting them. Dr. JC Doornick reveals the physics of resonance and how your nervous system dictates your reality.

Instead of guessing or following generic advice, Lori explains how seeing her own results helped her understand why her body was struggling — and how that insight changed everything.Through targeted testing and individualized guidance, Lori experienced meaningful shifts in:Energy levelsSleep (finally sleeping like a baby)Mood and overall joyConfidence in food and daily choicesThis episode highlights how functional lab testing provides personalized data, not opinions — and why that level of insight can be life-changing when you've been stuck in trial-and-error mode for years.Lori also shares what it felt like to finally feel supported, heard, and guided with a clear plan — and why working with Dee felt different from other approaches she had tried in the past.In This Episode, You'll Hear:Why Lori felt stuck before functional testingHow personalized data replaced confusion with clarityThe impact of targeted support on energy, sleep, and joyWhat makes Dee's functional approach differentWhy “doing all the right things” doesn't work without understanding root causesThis episode is for anyone who feels overwhelmed by conflicting health advice and is craving clear answers, real support, and sustainable results.Be sure to subscribe for more real conversations around hormones, healing, and root-cause health.Schedule a session with Dee HEREConnect with Dee on InstagramGoogle ReviewsMedical DisclaimerThis podcast is for educational and informational purposes only and is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

It's true, today could be your lucky day. There is no force outside of you that can determine what happens to you. But there is a very potent force inside you that sets the stage for every event you experience. Luck is not a capricious gift that whimsically falls into our lap; it is a force we activate with our thoughts, feelings, attitude, words, and actions, i.e. our faith. Real faith is acting as if your good is on its way even before you have evidence it is so. Get in the habit of giving thanks in advance, before you see the results. Faith is like a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it becomes, and the more power you have to bring your good into visibility. Cathy Norman encourages listeners to enjoy what appears to be good luck as they take a faithful approach to their daily activities. Today's affirmation; “Now I stand on Holy ground, and great things happen all around.” Join the Prospering Patreon Community:  www.Patreon.com/FunniestThing

Nikko Cagalanan is the chef-owner of Kultura in Charleston, South Carolina. Born and raised in the Philippines, Nikko began cooking in 2017 while still working as a nurse, discovering that the kitchen offered the same sense of purpose—to nurture, care for, and bring comfort to others. In 2019, he moved to Charleston to fully pursue his passion for cooking and launched Kultura to great acclaim, including a James Beard Award nomination. It was a lot of fun having Nikko in the studio to talk about his journey to professional cooking as well as some exciting news from the world of openings.  And, at the top of the show, it's the return of Three Things, where Aliza and Matt talk about what is exciting them in the world of restaurants, cookbooks, and the food world as a whole.

Farmers at Rathfriland market in County Down still practise an old tradition when livestock changes hands. Farmers selling their animals hand money back to the buyer, to seal the deal. It's known as the luck penny and is a way of wishing the customer success with the stock and building up a trustworthy business relationship. At the old fairs, a couple of coins would be handed over - today it could be a £20 note. The tradition, said to have originated in Ireland and lives on in modern insurance policies covering livestock after sale. And in Rathfriland, it is celebrated with a sculpture of a giant bronze penny in the town square.Produced and presented by Kathleen Carragher.

It just happened.For example, this morning I lucked out and found a parking spot right in front of the station.And my friend Jake lucked out last week - he got the last two tickets to a concert that had been sold out for days.And yesterday, I lucked out at the supermarket… strawberries were half price!Here's a pronunciation tip: luck out sounds like luk-kout.

Today's guest is a true innovator at the intersection of health, science, longevity, and high performance. I'm honored to welcome Dr. Adrijana Kekic — a Mayo Clinic–trained clinical pharmacy and pharmacogenomics specialist, award-winning innovator, and Founder & CEO of Futurome, a precision health and longevity company built for high achievers. Known as a Longevity Pharmacist™, Dr. Kekic blends advanced multi-omics science — including genomics, proteomics, microbiome, and mitochondrial health — with deeply personalized protocols that go far beyond traditional labs or annual checkups. Her mission is bold and necessary: to help executives, founders, athletes, and legacy builders optimize their biology so they can extend both lifespan and healthspan with clarity and confidence. After years leading precision medicine initiatives at Mayo Clinic — and surviving a life-altering personal health crisis — Dr. Kekic realized modern medicine often waits until something breaks. She founded Futurome to change that paradigm, giving people actionable insights into their cellular biology before burnout, disease, or decline takes over. In this episode, we go deep on longevity, personalized medicine, high performance, and the future of health — and what it truly takes to sustain ambitious lives from the inside out. In this conversation, we explore: Dr. Kekic's journey from Mayo Clinic to founding Futurome — and the moment she knew precision health needed a new paradigm How her personal health crisis reshaped the way she listens to the body and practices medicine The meaning behind the name Futurome and the mission driving the company Multi-omics explained in simple terms — and why it's a game-changer Underrated biomarkers for longevity, resilience, and performance  The biggest blind spots high achievers have when it comes to their health Common misconceptions about aging that are holding people back The first three steps to start optimizing your biology today The role stress, sleep, and recovery play compared to genetics Where personalized health and longevity are headed in the next 5–10 years This episode is a must-listen if you care about living longer, stronger, clearer — and on your own terms.

Happy Holidays! The final episode of the season brings Tri Beginner's Luck full circle with a conversation that is as grounding as it is inspiring. Mark Allen, six-time Ironman World Champion, coach, and lifelong student of the sport, joins the show for a story that reminds us why beginners matter and why mindset always wins. What unfolds is not just a highlight reel of victories, but a deeply human journey that began with fear in the water and curiosity sparked by watching Ironman on television.   Mark reflects on his earliest days in triathlon, when swimming felt familiar but the bike and run introduced uncertainty, discomfort, and growth. He shares how persistence, patience, and a willingness to learn carried him from beginner status to the professional ranks, emphasizing that fulfillment in triathlon is not reserved for the fastest athletes, but for those committed to discovering what they are capable of becoming.   The conversation dives into the power of mindset and learning, including lessons from Mark's first races and his ability to manage negative thoughts mid-competition. He speaks candidly about how every race, whether successful or disappointing, offers valuable feedback. With the season's reset theme as a backdrop, this episode encourages reflection, recalibration, and intentional goal-setting, whether the focus is racing fast, staying consistent, or simply continuing to show up.   Mark also revisits his legendary Kona journey, sharing stories of near-misses, mechanical setbacks, and years of frustration before finally claiming the Ironman World Championship title. His breakthrough came not from chasing comparison, but from embracing authenticity and racing as himself. That shift led to a historic performance and serves as a powerful reminder that progress often follows alignment rather than pressure.   As the conversation closes, Mark shares his evolution from athlete to coach and advocate, highlighting the importance of curiosity, balance, and consistency over time. He discusses the continued growth of the Limitless program, a free initiative designed to welcome more women into triathlon by removing barriers and building community. With plans to expand its reach and deepen its impact, his commitment to the grassroots of the sport reflects a legacy rooted in service, access, and long-term influence.   This season finale invites listeners to slow down, reflect, and begin again with intention. Whether you are brand new, starting over, or redefining your relationship with the sport, this episode offers perspective, wisdom, and a renewed belief that there is meaning to be found in every mile.   Let's tri this and we will see you in the new year!    Remember to leave a review, share it with your friends, and follow Tri Beginner's luck on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook.  And send any questions or feedback you have to  tblpodbiz@tribeginnersluck.com. 

There's nothing wrong with being lucky.

Do the Patriots actually feel like a 12-3 win team? What was the plan with the fake punt attempt? And has Christian Gonzalez lived up the hype?

00:13 – Intro & State of the NFL Chris and Mario open with frustration about the season's chaos. They note how late it is to have so few teams clinched, surprise playoff qualifiers, and how wide-open divisions and draft positioning still are. 03:16 – Betting Philosophy & Live-Line Inefficiencies Chris explains why early blowouts often create value later in games, focusing on first-quarter score swings and market overreactions. 04:16 – Raiders Coaching Odds & Tom Brady Talk They react to oddsmakers' Raiders coaching props, uninspiring candidate lists, and the absurdity of Tom Brady hype as owner, announcer, and hypothetical coach. 07:44 – Chiefs Futures: Reid, Kelce & QB Recklessness Discussion of Andy Reid retirement speculation, Travis Kelce's timeline, Mahomes' injury management, and why rushing back stars rarely makes sense. 09:58 – Absurd QB Comeback Odds They laugh through oddsmakers' retired-QB list (Cam Newton, Foles, Kaepernick, Ryan, Fitzpatrick, Luck), debating realism vs. novelty. 15:43 – Draft Order Chaos & QB Development Deep dive into tank races, trading down from No. 1, Giants' options, concussion concerns for young QBs, and why experience matters more than hype. NFL Week 16 Games 17:13 – Rams at Seahawks (TNF) NFC West positioning and motivation despite clinches. 19:15 – Eagles at Commanders (Saturday) Division matchup with playoff and draft implications. 23:45 – Packers at Bears (Saturday) NFC North tiebreakers and late-season momentum. 26:41 – Bills at Browns Buffalo urgency vs. Cleveland's defensive impact. 28:20 – Chiefs at Titans Strange line for a lopsided matchup and motivation questions. 29:02 – Chargers at Cowboys Two inconsistent teams with volatile outcomes. 30:18 – Vikings at Giants Young QB development vs. organizational dysfunction. 31:49 – Jets at Saints New Orleans' unexpected surge against a lost Jets team. 33:19 – Buccaneers at Panthers Two teams trying to define what they actually are. 38:46 – Falcons at Cardinals Low-confidence teams searching for footing. 39:52 – Jaguars at Broncos Denver's playoff security tested by a dangerous opponent. 40:40 – Raiders at Texans Houston's chance to capitalize against league chaos. 47:16 – Steelers at Lions Detroit's push to stabilize vs. Pittsburgh's ceiling. 47:56 – Patriots at Ravens Baltimore urgency against a disciplined opponent. 49:48 – 49ers at Colts (MNF) Veteran QB storyline and contrasting team directions.
