Harrison Browne joined me in The Locher Room for an inspiring and deeply honest conversation about a life defined by courage, reinvention, and authenticity.Many viewers recently discovered Harrison as Connors on the hit series Heated Rivalry, but long before stepping in front of the camera, he made history as the first openly transgender professional athlete in North American team sports.Harrison reflected on his groundbreaking hockey career, the difficult decision to retire in order to medically transition, and how he found a new purpose through acting. He shared the surprising story of how Scarlett Johansson unknowingly inspired him to pursue the craft, the discipline it took to succeed in both hockey and acting, and how he landed his role on Heated Rivalry.We also talked about the overwhelming response to the series, his acclaimed short film Pink Light, and why he and his sister, Rachel Browne, wrote Let Us Play: Winning the Battle for Gender Diverse Athletes.Most importantly, Harrison spoke candidly about the misinformation surrounding transgender athletes, what he wishes people understood about the lived experience of being trans, and the meaningful connections he's built with young people and families searching for hope and understanding.Whether you're a fan of Heated Rivalry, interested in sports, or simply appreciate powerful conversations that challenge perspectives, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Bad Bunny is in the news this week for a mix of legal pressure, chart dominance, and a fresh wave of pop-culture reach. The biggest story is that Spanish-language coverage in El País says two lawsuits tied to the use of women's voices in his songs are now framing a broader debate over consent in reggaeton, with one case involving Tainaly Serrano Rivera and another involving Carliz de la Cruz, who is seeking $40 million over the phrase “Bad Bunny, baby.”[2][5] At the same time, his music is still performing at a historic level. Billboard-tracking coverage reported by Inkl says “DTMF,” the title track from Debí Tirar Más Fotos, has held No. 1 on Hot Latin Songs for 71 straight weeks as of the Aug. 8 chart, while “Nuevayol” remains right behind it at No. 2, showing that multiple songs from the album are still dominating streaming and radio conversations.[28] Spotify tracking from Kworb also shows Debí TiRAR MáS FOToS among his strongest albums by daily streams, with the album continuing to pull massive numbers even months after release.[12] His tour is also still making news. 20minutos reports that the Debí Tirar Más Fotos tour has become the highest-grossing tour in history never to visit the United States, with 3.1 million tickets sold across 55 dates and reported revenue of $467.5 million, which underscores how global his audience has become.[34] That same report says the tour has been a major marker for the international reach of Spanish-language music.[34] Bad Bunny is also expanding beyond traditional music spaces. Music and entertainment coverage notes that his track “EoO” has been included on the soundtrack for Spider-Man: Un nuevo día, linking him to a major Marvel release and keeping his name in the movie and soundtrack conversation.[22] Social and entertainment posts are also pushing his visibility around brand and culture moments, including recent attention tied to Adidas collaborations and a steady stream of fan-driven content across TikTok and Instagram.[24][36] There is also a political and cultural angle making headlines. WDR and other outlets reported criticism after the White House used a Bad Bunny song in a TikTok montage related to immigration arrests, reviving long-running tension around his public image and political symbolism.[25][11] That kind of crossover has helped keep him central not just in music news, but in broader conversations about identity, Puerto Rico, and Spanish-language influence.[20] For listeners, the short version is this: Bad Bunny is simultaneously facing serious legal challenges, breaking streaming and touring records, and extending his presence into film, fashion, and public debate.

We're often taught that history's written by the winners. But we'd like to argue that, in fact, it's the losers who end up making history.  In this brand new miniseries from Dan Jones and Elizabeth Day, History's Greatest Fails aims to answer the simple, but complex, question: Why do losers make history?  From Richard III, to Vincent Van Gough, to the purposefully forgotten female Pharaoh Hatshepsut, this series is going to help you better understand how the idea of failure changes over time, and what lessons failure has for all of us.   Dan and Elizabeth are old friends, fellow history graduates, and fellow authors and podcasters.  Dan Jones is host of This Is History — A Dynasty to Die For, a narrative podcast that charts the bloody and complex drama of England's Plantagenet dynasty, now up to its 10th season.  Elizabeth is host of How To Fail, a podcast that has brought together hundreds of luminaries and thinkers including Kate Winslet, Yuval Noah Hariri, and Malala Yousafzai, to reflect on failure in the present.  Over six episodes, History's Greatest Fails will dissect failure of all kinds, from troubled historical rulers, to the failures of remembrance, to the failures that have created the happy accidents that last for generations. As always, Dan's royal favourites can chime in anytime on the royal court on Patreon at patreon.com/thisishistory. And for the bonus episodes of this miniseries, Dan and Producer Al are hearing from the favourites directly — join us as they discuss the royal favourites' special fail mentions.  So, join us for the debut episode of History's Greatest Fails, premiering on Tuesday April 7.  –– A Sony Music Entertainment production.  Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts  To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email podcastadsales@sonymusic.com  Learn more about your ad choices.  Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices  – Presented by Dan Jones and Elizabeth Day   Producer - Alan Weedon  Senior Producer - Dominic Tyerman Executive Producer - Simon Poole  Executive Producer - Dan Jones Executive Producer for Daylight Productions - Elizabeth Day   Production Manager - Jen Mistri  Production coordinator - Eric Ryan  Head of content - Chris Skinner Learn more about your ad choices.

This week, we’re time traveling with Philippa Gregory, prolific author and feminist historian (and maybe Danielle’s new bestie???). Philippa is the woman behind over 50 historical fiction novels that trace narratives across Medieval and Tudor England, including The Other Boleyn Girl, which was adapted into a film starring Natalie Portman and Scarlett Johansson. Her latest novel, The Boleyn Traitor, follows the infamous Anne Boleyn’s sister-in-law, Jane Boleyn, through her life as a spy in the English court. And this story, as so many of Philippa Gregory's do, brings a complicated, sometimes unlikeable, largely forgotten woman to the forefront. Because Philippa doesn’t really trust pure, pious women. She’s drawn instead to the truth – that women in from history are just as layered and diverse as we are today.

On the latest NFL Players: Second Acts podcast, former Miami Dolphins receiver OJ McDuffie joins Peanut Tillman and Roman Harper for a wide-ranging conversation about football, baseball, legendary coaches, and life after the game. OJ shares being named after OJ Simpson, those they don’t have the same exact names, his original passion for baseball at Penn State, and how Joe Paterno’s unique approach allowed him to play both sports. He reflects on his place in the Penn State baseball record books, and his “Welcome to the NFL” moment. The conversation dives deep into OJ’s NFL career with the Dolphins, including his experience playing for Don Shula, the stark transition to Jimmy Johnson, and what made Dan Marino one of the greatest quarterbacks of all time. OJ also shares the incredible story of catching Marino’s 399th, 400th, and 401st career touchdown passes in the same game. OJ gets candid about the foot injury that ended his career, the difficult transition away from football, and how leaning on friends helped him find his footing. Today, he’s found a second act in media through The Fish Tank podcast, continuing to stay connected to the game and the city of Miami. It’s an honest, funny, and insightful look at a career shaped by legends—and what comes next when the game ends. The NFL Players: Second Acts podcast is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeart Media. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Darby McDevitt is a narrative director and writer at Ubisoft . He's worked on multiple games in the Assassin's Creed franchise, which spans time periods from Ancient Greece to Victorian England. But what does it mean to be a writer on a massive video game where your character is mostly running, climbing, jumping and fighting? The key to his work lies in historical research, but he is sometimes torn between what would actually happen and what pop culture has trained us to expect from different eras of history. We also discuss his new novel, The Halter, which imagines a future where virtual reality is so realistic and addictive that people abandon their real lives and have to be tracked down. This is the first episode in a multi-part series on video games. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
