Roll On is here! Adam Skolnick and I catch up after a month of nonstop travel. Tokyo for the Track & Field World Championships, New York, and DC multiple times. Big news: Adam announces his debut novel American Tiger—20 years in the making, with the audiobook recorded right here in our studio. Also on tap: my family crisis that required an Ocean's 11-style heist, accidentally crashing the wrong high school reunion, Alex Honnold scaling skyscrapers live on Netflix, the Norwegians sweeping Ironman Nice, and Sean Penn's performance in “One Battle After Another." I get candid about what it means to show up when every button you have is being pushed, generational trauma, and practicing unconditional love. Buckle up!

The PicklePod is back, and this week we've got a jam-packed episode. James Ignatowich (aka Iggy) stops by to reveal how he went from pro pickleball player to paddle engineer with the launch of his new company, RPM. He breaks down the grind of designing paddles, the wild stories behind his prototypes, and what sets RPM apart from the competition. Meanwhile, Zane and T-Dog dive into one of the craziest weeks in pickleball yet: - PaddleGate 2025 – why 15 of 16 pros used different paddles on Championship Sunday. - PPA Cincinnati Slam – shocking results as the Kawamoto twins take down Anna Bright & Anna Leigh Waters. - Cheating drama – Tyson McGuffin vs. Mo Alhouni and the calls that shook the tour. - Sports betting in pickleball – the PPA partners with Kalshi to make wagering on pickleball legal in the U.S. Plus: streakers, celebrity owners, and the latest MLP team shakeups. This episode has it all—gear talk, controversy, and the future of the sport.

Hugh talks to Michael Brendan Dougherty, senior writer at National Review, about the murder of right wing activist and Christian nationalist Charlie Kirk and the vociferous reaction that has exposed and deepened America's political divides. Michael talks about Kirk's significant influence on young conservatives, the media's portrayal of Kirk before and after his killing and the impact on U.S. political discourse. Hosted on Acast.

I flew to Nashville, sat in Dr. John Delony's studio, and we had the kind of friend-to-friend talk I wish everyone could hear. We got honest about anxiety—how I've felt it in my own body—and why our “imaginary fights” leave us overheated before a real conversation even starts. John shared the two moves that changed my playbook: bring calm (it spreads) and tell the truth (facts are kind). We dug into abandonment fears, childhood stuff that sneaks into marriage, and that gut-punch line: “You marry your unfinished business.” If you've ever felt anxious mid-conversation, or avoided a hard talk because you were scared of losing someone, this episode gives you practical steps to reset, reconnect, and talk like you actually want to be heard.

Ever wonder why some people just click with everyone? In this episode, I sit down with my friend Vanessa Van Edwards—behavioral investigator, author, and founder of Science of People—to break down the science behind first impressions, charisma, and connection. We dig into what people really notice in the first few seconds of meeting you (hint: it's not your words), how to instantly build trust, and the vocal mistake most people make when they say “hello.” Whether you're walking into a boardroom or meeting someone on the street, this is the conversation that'll change the way you show up.
