What a weekend for football! From historic comebacks in the Windy City to the defending champs falling in Philly, Wild Card Weekend 2026 lived up to the hype. We're breaking down all five games from Saturday and Sunday, analyzing the coaching decisions that shifted the momentum and looking ahead to the Divisional Round.Saturday: The Great Escapes• Bears 31, Packers 27: Caleb Williams just had his "Welcome to Greatness" moment. Down 21–3 at the half, the Bears pulled off the largest postseason comeback in franchise history. We discuss the 25-yard game-winner to DJ Moore and whether this loss marks the end of the Matt LaFleur era in Green Bay.• Rams 34, Panthers 31: Matthew Stafford reminds us why he's a future Hall of Famer. Despite being double-digit favorites, the Rams found themselves trailing late until Stafford engineered a 71-yard drive, capped by a Colby Parkinson TD with only 38 seconds left.Sunday: The Champs are Out• 49ers 23, Eagles 19: The upset of the weekend. Brock Purdy and the Niners went into Lincoln Financial Field and dethroned the defending Super Bowl champions. We talk about the gutsy Jauan Jennings trick-play TD pass and the fallout for the Eagles after a "limp" second-half offensive showing.• Bills 27, Jaguars 24: Josh Allen finally got the monkey off his back with his first career fourth-quarter playoff game-winning drive. A classic shootout that saw four lead changes in the final quarter alone.• Patriots 16 vs. Chargers 3: We wrap up the Sunday night action from Foxborough—did the Chargers' high-flying offense survive the January chill in New England? NOPE! They were absolutely handled on offense by the Patriots defense and Drake Maye and Mike Vrabel made a statement to the league. Key Takeaways & Divisional Preview• Injury Report: The 49ers won, but at what cost? We look at the impact of George Kittle's season-ending Achilles injury.• The Road Ahead: The #1 seeds—the Denver Broncos and Seattle Seahawks—now know who they're hosting.

In this solo episode of Don't Waste the Chaos, Kerri Roberts, Christian business & HR consultant and founder of Salt & Light Advisors, opens up about a deeper tension many high-achieving Christians carry but rarely say out loud: when ambition, excellence, and drive cross the line from worship to idolatry. Drawing from her own story as a COO in the insurance industry, Kerri shares how private jets, big titles, and record-breaking performance still left her 50 pounds heavier, exhausted, bitter, and spiritually depleted.Kerri walks listeners through the difference between godly excellence and achievement-as-an-idol for anyone in leadership: employees, executives, entrepreneurs, and business owners. She unpacks the cultural pull toward workaholism and toxic productivity, where identity becomes fused to output and status, and pairs it with the biblical call to worship God alone, honor our limits, and receive Sabbath as a gift instead of a rule. Scriptures like Exodus 20:3 and Colossians 3:23 frame the conversation and help listeners recognize when work, money, or achievement has taken the functional place of God.Finally, Kerri offers six practical guardrails for faith-driven professionals who want to keep excellence but lose the bondage: redefining success beyond output, building real rhythms of rest, creating boundaries and delegation (including automations), seeking accountability and community, regularly checking motives and heart posture, and leading people instead of worshiping productivity. With honest stories about motherhood, job loss, identity, money guilt, and rebuilding her life and business with healthier rhythms, Kerri invites Christian leaders to pause, reflect, and choose one concrete step toward grace, balance, and true godly success.Key TakeawaysExcellence is biblical—but it's not your identity. Workaholism is a warning sign, not a virtue. Idolatry is often subtle and internal. Healthy excellence honors human limits. You can rewrite your relationship with work.  Sponsors & Ways to Work with Kerri1.

The first round of the College Football Playoff is in the books, and we're breaking down everything that went down in a loaded opening slate. From heavyweight brand-name matchups to a controversial Group of 5 appearance, this round gave us statement wins, reality checks, and plenty to argue about.We dive into Oklahoma vs. Alabama, where blue-blood expectations collided and the margin for error felt razor thin. We react to Miami vs. Texas A&M, a game that tested toughness, quarterback play, and whether either program is truly ready for the playoff spotlight. We unpack Ole Miss vs. Tulane, a matchup that reignited the ongoing debate about conference bias and playoff access. And finally, we analyze James Madison vs. Oregon, a game that forced everyone to ask the big question:Should Group of 5 schools be in the College Football Playoff?We discuss whether these matchups validated the expanded playoff or exposed the gap between power programs and emerging schools, what this round means for the future of college football, and how the CFP committee should approach inclusion moving forward.Big takes, honest reactions, and a bigger conversation about where the sport is heading—this is the first-round CFP recap you don't want to miss.Oklahoma- Alabama (4:00)Miami - Texas A&M (8:00)Ole Miss- Tulane (14:00)JMU- Oregon (16:34)So let us ask, should we allow group 5 teams in?

Five days after the anti-Semitic terrorist attack at Bondi Beach in Sydney, Brandon is joined by Rabbi Noam Raucher, spiritual coach, rabbi, and host of The Jewish Divorce Project, for a grounded and deeply human conversation about grief, fear, resilience, and responsibility.Rather than rushing to politicize or defend positions, this episode slows down and asks a more essential question: How should human beings respond first when confronted with violence?Together, Brandon, Noam, and Boysen explore:The emotional impact of the Bondi Beach attack during HanukkahWhy witnessing pain must come before analysis or opinionHow desensitization to violence erodes our shared humanityJewish resilience and the deeper meaning of Hanukkah as rededication and lightHolding outrage and compassion at the same timeGenerational trauma and how it lives in the body and communityThe difference between knee-to-knee healing and shoulder-to-shoulder rebuildingWhy apathy is more dangerous than angerForgiveness as releasing anger, not excusing harmHow to “bank” moments of safety, connection, and love during dark timesThis conversation is not about answers. It is about posture. About choosing presence over polarization, community over isolation, and humanity over ideology.If you are feeling overwhelmed by the state of the world, uncertain how to respond, or searching for a way to grieve without contributing to further division, this episode offers a steady place to land.- Rabbi Noam Raucher https://www.noamraucher.com- The Jewish Divorce Project https://www.jewishdivorceproject.com- The ManKind Project https://mankindproject.org BetterHelp: Get 10% Off Your First Month Of Therapy The ManKind Podcast has partnered with Betterhelp to make it easier for listeners to access licensed mental health therapists who can aid them in their mental health journey.

We start by breaking down why John Cena's ending felt absolutely perfect, what it meant for wrestling fans, and how rare it is to see a legend actually stick the landing.

In this deeply moving episode of The ManKind Podcast, Brandon sits down with Andrew Newman, author, storyteller, TEDx speaker, and founder of Conscious Stories, to explore how the stories we hear as children shape our emotional lives as adults.Andrew shares why most adult personal development work is really about repairing the first seven years of life and why he chose to focus his life's work on supporting children before those wounds take root. Through storytelling, breathwork, and ritual, Andrew helps parents create emotionally safe, regulated, and connected moments with their kids, especially in the final 20 minutes of the day.This conversation weaves together:The power of bedtime stories as co regulation and emotional repairWhy children internalize belief systems before age sevenHow stories help kids install “I am good” as a core identityThe role of breath and presence in emotional safetyWhy many men struggle with touch, trust, and vulnerabilityHow men relearn safety and belonging through men's workThe long term impact of reading to children consistentlyWhy healing trauma alone is not enough without self expressionHow to follow your spark instead of letting trauma lead your lifeAndrew's upcoming adult work on unhiding yourself and reclaiming voiceAndrew also reads The Hug Who Got Stuck live on the show, demonstrating how storytelling can gently teach emotional regulation, self compassion, and resilience to both children and adults.This episode is for parents, future parents, men doing inner work, and anyone who knows there is a younger version of themselves still longing to be seen, soothed, and encouraged to shine.Andrew Newman adult work and books https://andrewnewman.me BetterHelp: Get 10% Off Your First Month Of Therapy The ManKind Podcast has partnered with Betterhelp to make it easier for listeners to access licensed mental health therapists who can aid them in their mental health journey.

It was a full slate of NFL action today, and we're breaking down everything you need to know from a wild Sunday across the league. We start with the Rams outlasting the Lions in a shootout, as Matthew Stafford and Puka Nacua powered a massive second-half comeback. We hit the NFC South chaos as the Falcons stunned the Buccaneers with a last-second field goal, keeping Tampa Bay's playoff hopes shaky.From there, we dive into two absolute defensive statements — the Eagles and Ravens both pitching shutouts, dominating the Raiders and Bengals respectively. We also cover Houston continuing its surge behind C.J. Stroud in a convincing win over the Cardinals, while the Bears steamrolled the Browns in a complete team performance.In the NFC East, the Commanders handled the Giants thanks to big special teams plays, while Jacksonville embarrassed the Jets as Trevor Lawrence delivered one of the best performances of his career. We close things out with the 49ers staying hot against the Titans, showcasing why San Francisco remains one of the most dangerous teams heading toward the postseason.Playoff races tightened, contenders separated themselves, and a few teams made loud statements — we're reacting to all of it from top to bottom.Tap into Episode 662 of the Productive Conversations Podcast—available now on all podcast platforms and YouTube.Bills vs Patriots (4:10)Colts vs Seahawks (6:03)Chargers vs Chiefs (7:48)Broncos vs Packers (9:59)Rams vs Lions (11:46)Falcons vs Buccaneers (13:12)Eagles vs Raiders (15:12)Ravens vs Bengals (16:13)Texans Vs Cardinals (18:28)Bears vs Browns (19:08)Giants vs Commanders (20:54)Jets vs Jaguars (22:22)49ers vs Titans (24:12)Cowboys vs Vikings (25:28)MNF Pick (26:52)Look to Next Week (29:00)--------#nfl #football #nflfootball #nflnews #trending #sports #culture --------Best way to contact our host is by emailing him at productiveconversationspodcast@gmail.com or mbrown3212@gmail.comThis show has been brought to you by Magic Mind!Right now you can get your Magic Mind at WWW.MAGICMIND.COM/ PCLT20 to get 20% off a one-time purchase or up to 48% off a subscription using that code PCJUNE. Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/productive-conversations-with-matt-brown/id1535871441 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7qCsxuzYYoeqALrWu4x4Kb YouTube: @Productive_Conversations  Linktree:https://linktr.ee/productiveconversations

I've coached for more than 20 years. And every step of the way I've had several coaches who reveal my blind spots, encourage me to move beyond my edges, and enhance my mastery which I'm honored to pay forward with breathtaking results for my cherished clients. Most of these coaches have been one-on-one, yet every few years I join a group coaching program and meet phenomenal colleagues. In my current teacher trainer coaching program with John Wineland, right out of the gate a lovely woman reached out from the UK saying she felt a special connection to me and wanted to get to know each other better. Wow. Talk about feeling seen and valued.  Now for over a year we've been connecting before or after the live workshops for dinner or even a trip to the Turkish baths, as well as checking in online with each other's brave, soulful journeys. Kate Joyner is a true blessing in my life and what a treat to dive deeper into her magic and mastery Live in Mallorca, Spain for the podcast. In this beautiful. delicious, witchy, intimate conversation we discussed... -How she's lived on the edge of a national protected forest for several years communing in sacred relationship with nature. -How as women we've lost our magic, magic that originated in the temples and when persecuted, we fled to the forests, hunted and hiding our light, wisdom and Magic, fearing for our lives. -How we can't truly lose our magic forever, it's in there- she helps to ignite it in extraordinary rituals, ceremonies, practices, initiations and celebrations she facilitates globally as women reclaim their true essence. -How she fully embraces the transformative power of the shadow, the darkness, the underworld, and craves of romantic life partner who can meet her there and even take her deeper. -How our true light is found through embracing our dark emotions, the depth of our underworld, our messiness, letting go of control, all of it is the path to light and love.  -How she's committed to deeply honoring her intuition as she makes choices from her knowing not her mind, such as living in South America after her father passed and now, leaving that beautiful forest knowing her time there is complete as she embraces moving back to the States. -How in my opinion, her embracing of her Darkness is so alluring, she's deeply joyful as opposed to surface happy, she's trustable because she won't bullshit you, she's an accurate barometer of Truth and I'm honored and delighted to call her my sister.  ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!

On today's episode, we break down one of the wildest Championship Weekends college football has ever delivered — and react to the FINAL College Football Playoff bracket that has the entire country talking.We start with the shocker in the Big Ten, where Indiana stunned Ohio State in a defensive slugfest that crowned the Hoosiers as conference champs and ignited their push toward the No. 1 seed. Then we head to the SEC, where Georgia put on a vintage Kirby Smart masterclass, shutting down Alabama and punching their ticket to another playoff run.The Big 12 title game saw Texas Tech deliver a statement win over BYU, riding turnovers and a suffocating defense to their first Big 12 Championship in program history. And the drama didn't stop there—over in the ACC, Duke and Virginia delivered the most emotional game of the weekend, capped off by an overtime walk-off that sent the Blue Devils to the top of the conference for the first time in decades.Then it's time for the main event:

On today's episode, we're hitting every corner of the culture — from prediction markets to pop culture meltdowns and everything in between. We start with Polymarket and Kalshi, breaking down why prediction markets are exploding right now, how they work, and why everyone from crypto traders to Wall Street analysts is suddenly betting on real-world events.Then we dive into the Akaash Singh drama, the clips going viral, and the internet debate over whether his wife is making him look bad or whether the whole situation is being blown out of proportion.Next up: Max Kellerman stops by The Bill Simmons Podcast, and the sports media world reacts. We get into what he said, the state of sports talk, and why his return to long-form conversation hits different.We also talk about HBO Max streaming Mad Men — and the hilarious little errors fans keep spotting in the newly uploaded episodes.In Hollywood news, Quentin Tarantino has some unexpectedly harsh words for Paul Dano, and we unpack what that rant says about Tarantino's standards, Hollywood culture, and ego.Plus: a raccoon breaks into a liquor store, gets drunk, and is found passed out like a furry rockstar — one of the wildest headlines of the week.And as always, we wrap with our Question of the Day and a bold Nuclear Opinion that might just start a fight in your group chat.Tap into Episode 656 of the Productive Conversations Podcast—available now on all podcast platforms and YouTube.PolyMarket & Kalshi talking about the rise of  predictions markets (7:30)Akaash Singh Drama (28:45)Max Kellerman on Bill simmons (56:45)HBO max botch while streaming Mad Men (1:04:30)Tarantino's harsh words to Paul Dano (1:07:12)Raccoon gets drunk (1:11:12)Question of the day (1:14:00)Nuclear Opinion (1:16:50)Best way to contact our host is by emailing him at productiveconversationspodcast@gmail.com or mbrown3212@gmail.comThis show has been brought to you by Magic Mind!Right now you can get your Magic Mind at WWW.MAGICMIND.COM/ PCLT20 to get 20% off a one-time purchase or up to 48% off a subscription using that code PCJUNE. Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/productive-conversations-with-matt-brown/id1535871441 Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7qCsxuzYYoeqALrWu4x4Kb YouTube: @Productive_Conversations  Linktree:https://linktr.ee/productiveconversations

Brendan Schaub and Bryan Callen are joined by Danny Martinello, the Edmonton comic who went viral on Kill Tony after winning the MSG joke-off. Danny breaks down the pressure, the crowd, the adrenaline, and the moment he realized he had to win.Brendan recaps his insane Texas hunting trip — from almost shooting a $14,000 trophy buck, learning the difference between whitetail and axis deer, night-vision hog hunting, and getting schooled by Marines on how tags and ranch rules work. The guys compare venison, Wagyu, backstrap cuts, and why hunters hit or miss the “gland” that ruins the meat.Danny shares insane Alberta stories: oil field life at –36°F, dangerous CO₂ leaks, refinery evacuations, and blue-collar comedy shows in smoke pits underground. Then the show turns into wild biker tales, including run-ins with gangs, Hells Angels, and some of the funniest (and craziest) stories Bryan has ever told on the podcast.This episode goes from hunting… to drugs… to dogs… to biker gangs… to space… to testosterone levels… all in classic TFATK chaos.Fabletics - Head to https://fabletics.com/tftk and sign up as a VIP to get eighty percent off everythingDraftKings - Download the DraftKings Sportsbook app and use promo code FIGHTER.

There are some moments when you just have to pinch yourself. The Universe conspired to weave two paths together… I had JUST had lunch with upcoming Podcast Guest Stephanie James who mentioned her line up for her upcoming workshop. Then my Calendar revealed a Podcast interview with a familiar name… Lisa Campion, a brilliant psychic mentor, author, and healer whose heart and wisdom shine so brightly. Turns out Lisa and Stephanie are besties! What a delight to discover my world is getting smaller and smaller! And what an honor to feature Lisa's psychic gifts, evolution of her capacities and her mission to help sensitives embrace their superpowers. In this rich and magical conversation, we explored… -How Lisa discovered her psychic gifts as a child, grew into her calling at 19, and eventually created her own modality, Quantum Healing -What it means to shift from 3D identity into 5D consciousness — releasing ego, competition, and old karmic contracts to live from the heart -The sometimes painful "purges" of body, mind, and emotions that prepare us to embody higher frequencies of light -How her Reiki practice transformed into transmitting pure light energy, and why so many students are now drawn to learn this next-level healing work -Lisa's take on fluidly moving between 3D (practical life), 4D (intuition/psychic), and 5D (unity consciousness) so we can stay grounded while still expanding -Our shared experiences with clients shifting from old teacher–student hierarchies into true co-creation, empowerment and embodiment -The ecstatic states of union with the divine we can access through dance, movement, and embodied practices like Flamenco and Biadanza -How healing and intimacy happen not only in sessions but in community, connection, and the courage to let old stories die so our true soul essence can rise. Lisa's joy, gifts and authenticity are such a gift to the world. Her vision is clear: to train an army of healers and lightworkers who uplift humanity one conscious soul at a time. Her answers to my questions on After the Show on Patreon (www.Patreon.com/allanapratt) reveal even more vulnerabilities of our lives as single moms, our love of dance and our heart's most precious dreams.  ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content! About Lisa:   Lisa Campion is not your grandma's psychic. She's the mentor you wish you'd met before you started doubting your own gifts. Since childhood, Lisa's been seeing energy, colors, and the kinds of spirits most people only talk about on Halloween—except, for her, it was Tuesday. These days, she's the go-to resource for every emerging psychic, empath, and "I-feel-too-much" healer who secretly suspects the world needs them. (It does. She'll prove it.) As the founder of Quantum Light Wave Healing and author of four books—including the best-selling The Art of Psychic Reiki —Lisa is equal parts quantum science geek and kitchen-table mystic.

I first worked with Amanda at another company, she was assigned to my account and gratefully aligned with my mission, message and energy. Now she is my right hand woman in my company, my 'work wife'- ha! She has my back booking me on Podcasts, booking our Intimate Conversations Podcast and makes sure as I galavant around the world, that we have important things like post office boxes so important documents don't get lost.   Personally when she joined my company she was ready to heal from past wounds, the loss of her best friend and reconnect with her heart's truth. Watching her blossoming life unfold has been a profound joy, and it was such an honor to huge her for the second time in my life, feature her in person on the podcast, and even meet her boyfriend and see their beautiful home!  In this raw and beautiful conversation we explored… -How Amanda's childhood wounds and early relationships left her feeling unworthy, and how she found the courage to stop running from her pain. One of the perks of working in my company is that I provide her with an Allana Pratt Method Coach to ensure healthy deeper roots, which create thriving shoots.  -How working together helped her honor her grief when her best friend died and how safe it is on Team Calls to be real, authentic AND to celebrate all of our wins, adventures, weddings, even new babies! -How she's watched me fail, make mistakes, clean up my messages and become calmer, more grounded and clearer in my truth over the years from healing my own subconscious wounds with psychedelic somatic integration sessions. -How grateful she is that I nudged her to move back to Colorado, get her own place for the first time, deepen her relationship with her man, move in and truly create an epic life of balance with work and adventures, camping and travel.  -How she has vision, intuition, expertise and is such a joy to work with as we contribute to our clients, community and humanity alongside our whole global Team Allana.  -I love this woman with all my heart. She's truly in the golden years of her life inspiring ME to keep my heart open to love and bring more balance into my world.  This conversation is a testament to the how the Divine literally brings into our lives exactly those who are meant to walk with us to serve our mission. It's a conversation that reveals the strength it takes to face our shadows, the grace that comes from being in community witnessed on weekly Team Calls, and the beauty of becoming who we were always meant to be. Amanda's story is proof that personal growth, spiritual practices, following your heart and being brave truly creates a life you love. And that we don't need to know whats next, because we have each other.  ➡️ Go check out patreon.com/allanapratt for Exclusive content!   Schedule your Intimacy Breakthrough Experience with me today https://allanapratt.com/connect Scholarship Code: READYNOW Finding the One is Bullsh*t.

Speaking across the decades from the 1960s to the 2010s, Ram Dass shares stories about his mother and father, and explores what it means to honor our parents and incarnation.

Visit magicmind.com to get 58% off subscriptions, free shipping, and a free 15-pack of Sleep Shots.This episode of Here and Now is a compilation of Ram Dass discussing what it means to honor our parents and our incarnation. We begin in 1969 at the family farm in New Hampshire. Ram Dass talks about how most of our efforts to help other people are simply high drama. He tells a story about wanting to speak with his mother about dying when she was going through that process, but she had to be the one to open the door to the conversation.The next stop is the 1970s at the Abode of the Message in New Lebanon, New York. Ram Dass explores how part of the spiritual journey is about honoring incarnation and honoring our parents. He shares stories about spending time with his father, and how moments of intimacy between them were born of Ram Dass not trying to be someone special anymore. We move on to a 1985 Seva benefit in San Rafael, California. Ram Dass discusses moving back home at 50 to care for his aging father. He then tells the story of being called home from a meditation retreat to help his sick stepmother, and a moment of anger he felt towards his guru about what was happening.Up next is a trip to the 1990s at the Conscious Aging Retreat in Clearwater, Florida. Ram Dass responds to a question about helping a child awaken. He talks about how you have to become somebody before you become nobody, and recalls a memory where he and his mother overcame their roles of parent and child for a brief moment.Finally, we end with a conversation between Ram Dass and John Welshons on Maui in 2011. Ram Dass tells the story of a meditation retreat that turned into a therapy group, which triggered a memory from when he was a young child and his mother was holding him down during a temper tantrum. Ram Dass tries to reconcile this memory with the moment when his guru told him his mother is a very high soul.

Ram Dass teaches that through the Bhakti practice of unconditional love, we can all connect with our true nature. Through these teachings, Ram Dass has shared a little piece of his guru, Maharaj-ji, with all who have listened to him. Learn more at ramdass.org.“Now, I've done this, being with my father once a month now, for several years, because I said to myself, ‘Look, you have to honor your incarnation. And one of the aspects of your incarnation is that you are your father's son.' And even though, on some level, that seems kind of funny, it happens to be part of what it's about. Just like I have to honor the fact that I am an American. I have to pay my taxes. I have to do a lot of stuff. And this is one of the things, I must honor it. And then I have to figure out—what does it mean to honor it? What does it mean to honor it? What does it mean to honor parents?” – Ram DassSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
