We dug into our takes and yours — on Michigan State football's 42-40 overtime win over Boston College, what the win meant and what we learned about MSU's team, on Michigan's loss at Oklahoma and where the Wolverines' season is headed, on the Lions' awful performance against the Packers and concerns for the season, and more.

Today we are joined by fan favorite Ondine Achampong, a World and European medalist for Great Britain who was a favorite to make the Paris Olympic team before an ACL injury took her out of contention just three months before the Games. Ondine shocked the gymnastics world last season when she worked her way into Cal's beam lineup around 10 months after tearing her ACL—an injury that takes most gymnasts at least a year to recover from. Now, heading into her sophomore season, she's ready to take on an even bigger role for a young and relatively inexperienced Cal team.In this episode, Ondine shares more about her recovery journey, how she handled the uncertainty of the offseason with so many changes, what led her to stay at Cal, and whether a return to elite gymnastics might be in her future.Thank you to our monthly Patreon supporters: Lee B, Cookiemaster, Christa, Happy Girl, Erica S, Semflam, Amy C, Maria L, Becca S, Cathleen R, Faith, Kerry M, M, Derek H, Martin, Sharon B, Randee B, MSU, Kimberly G, Robert H, Lela M, Mara L, Jenna A, Alex M, Mama T, Kelsey, Lidia, Maria P, Alicia O, Cristina K, Bethany J, Diane J, Kentiemac, Marni S, Betny T, Emily C, Cathy D, Lisa T, Libby C, Thiago, Taryn M, Dana B, Jamie S, Chuck C, Je_GL, Kaitlin, Susan P, Katertot, Mallory D, LFC_Hokie, Ella, Debbie, Megan F, Kay, Diane J, Julie B,, Austin K, Jane, Sarah, Amy, Stephen S, Johanna T, Alison S, Kristina T, Abigail W, Becky, Ola S, Jennifer K, Kate M, Claudia, Erin L, Sarah A, Kennedy B, Thomas B, Kihika N, Beth C, Amy, Renee PM, Ryan V, Brandon H, Tyler, Hayley B, Ben S, Kate & Landon, Danielle, ALittleUnderRotated, Dana C, Grace, Pat G , Lexi G, Laura N, Kathy, Katie A, Ruby B,, Róisín, Becca, Megan J, Emily D, Britton, Ry Shep, Reyna G, William A, MB, MJ L, Jackson G, Brittany A, Stella, Ulo F, Noah C, Melissa H, Alexis, William M, Trish, Susie, Leslie G, Catherine B, Karlin, Laura L, Katy S, J'nia G, Kathy M, Kathy S, Okcaro, Caroline P, JD B, Cookiecutter, Ailish D, Wil D, Caroline M, kcmojojojo, Sammy S, Fabio B, & Kerry H!

Michigan State University unveiled a new strategic plan -- MSU 2030 – in September 2021, articulating a shared vision for the university and six bold priorities for continuous improvement. As originally planned, and now under the leadership of President Kevin Guskiewicz, the strategic plan is being refreshed to reflect on lessons learned, adjust course and make progress toward becoming a more contemporary institution focused on cross-cutting priorities and solutions – with “synergy unleashed.” The refreshed, reframed and reimagined strategic plan, MSU 2030: Excellence for Global Impact, reaffirms leadership's commitment to a shared vision for the university through the end of the decade. Here to discuss the evolution of MSU 2030 are MSU President Kevin Guskiewicz and MSU Vice President for Strategic Initiatives Bill Beekman.Conversation Highlights:(1:15) – Kevin, you've said that the compelling vision of an institution taking on the challenges of the 21st century is among the things that attracted me to Michigan State. How so?(2:08) – Bill, you've been involved with the plan's development and implementation since the start. What strikes you about the plan's refresh?(4:11) – Kevin, you've often referred to MSU 2030 as a roadmap. Why is it important for MSU to have this plan and to refresh it now? And what do you mean by “synergy unleashed?(6:24) - The newly revised MSU 2030 plan maintains as foundational elements six strategic and cross-cutting themes and priorities — Student Success, Staff and Faculty Success, Discovery and Innovation for Impact, Sustainable Health, Stewardship for a Sustainable Future, and Access, Opportunity and Excellence.Let's talk about the cross-cutting themes that are injecting new energy into these ongoing efforts and uniting key areas.

And now under the leadership of President Kevin Kasowitz, the strategic plan is being refreshed to reflect on lessons learned, adjust course and make progress toward becoming a more contemporary institution focused on cross-cutting priorities and solutions. With Synergy Unleashed, the refreshed, reframed, and re-imagined strategic plan MSU 2030 Excellence for Global Impact reaffirms leadership's commitment to a shared vision for the university through the end of the decade. Here to discuss the evolution of MSU 2030, our MSU President, Kevin Guskiewicz and MSU, vice President for Strategic Initiatives, bill Beekman and Kevin and Bill, great to have you back in the state of the art studios of Impact Radio here on campus. And Kevin, you've said that the compelling vision of an institution taking on the challenges of the 21st century is among the things that attracted you to Michigan State. How so, and why?Kevin Guskiewicz:Well, Michigan State University is a proudly public university, one that fills a commitment to the people of Michigan. We rely on taxpayer dollars to transform the lives and improve the quality of life for Michiganders. And so much of the work that's done here through our teaching research and outreach is about the common good. I mean, the new strategic plan that we're here talking about, it's woven throughout the entire roadmap. It's about all that we do is for the public good, the common good. And we felt that the first time we touched down here in East Lansing. And 18 months in, I feel even better about where we're headed than what I did two years ago when I started exploring the opportunity.Speaker 1:And Bill, you've been involved with the plan's development and implementation from the start. What strikes you about the refresh?Bill Beekman:Well, I think one of the most important things about the refresh is the fact that we're actually doing it. So often you have strategic plans that get built and there's inordinate amounts of time spent working on them, and then they sort of drift away. And I think what's really wonderful about the creation of this plan and those that were there at the start, is that they very intentionally decided that we should have a refresh that about a third 40% of the way into the implementation of the plan, that we should pause, take a look at the environment, what's changed, what's going well, what should we be thinking about changing based on internal and external factors and recalibrate. And so it's really a living plan. And to me that's one the most important aspects of the plan is that it does change. It does adapt to our circumstances and our environment.(03:08):It allows for us to think about where should we be course correcting? What things should we be doing differently? How should we learn from what we've done? And that constant course correcting and a living plan, I think continues to make it relevant to what we're doing. And so the process has really been wonderful and allowed our team to focus on the future. It was fortuitous that it happened as Kevin had been here for about nine months or thereabouts, so his energy and vision could be incorporated into the work we're doing. And so yeah, it's been a wonderful process and it's great to see it finished and the work of implementation goes on.Speaker 1 (03:57):Yes. And Kevin, you've often referred to MSU 2030 as a roadmap in addition to a strategic plan. Why is it important for MSU to have this plan and to refresh it now? And what do you mean by synergy unleashed?Speaker 2 (04:12):Well, I've always used the word roadmap rus because I think you need a roadmap to get to a destination. And the destination that was agreed upon back in 2021 were set of established goals and priorities and how we were going to get there needed to be sort of re-imagined. But again, I think as Bill's already said, it's sort of reaffirming those six initial prio...

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") and intern India Otto are back to discuss the successful 2025 season opener against Missouri State with the Trojans putting a historic beatdown on the former FCS program 73-13. Now the focus shifts to Georgia Southern, a step-up in the caliber of opponent but still not a true test for a USC football team with higher aspirations than just making a decent bowl. The crew gives a few thoughts on what they took away from the week one victory, focusing mostly on younger Trojans, including true freshman Husan Longstreet, getting an opportunity for early development with significant playing time against live competition. With former USC head coach Clay Helton coming into the Coliseum this weekend, Ryan, Connor and India give their thoughts on what sort of reaction the crowd will have and how this USC football team will respond, knowing that a significant portion of the fanbase is looking for a similar result to last weekend against MSU. In their first game the Eagles looked good in the first half against Fresno State before falling apart in the second half. Helton and company are staying in California and are looking for a much better performance in week two, something Lincoln Riley will try to prevent from happening. After talking about this matchup, the hosts will discuss other notes around the USC football program including a few players retuning from injury and the reaction to removing the "drip check" from the Trojan Walk.

So Mike, great to catch up with you.Mike Rowe:Thanks,Russ White:Russ. Great to be here. And Sage, good to have you on the show.Sage Kellerman:Yeah, thank you.Speaker 1 (00:17):Mike could just start, give us a little bit of your background and what first attracted you to MSU as a student back in the day?Speaker 2 (00:25):Interesting. I started out of high school. I went to western Michigan for a year. And I'm going to be honest, this wasn't crazy about that atmosphere or whatever was going on or wasn't going on there, but Michigan State, just basketball had just won the national championship with magic and the cheerleaders had just won their national championship and all this. And I was like, I had friends coming here, I'm thinking I'm going to move across the state, I'm going to transfer. I wasn't doing anything with my major, was kind of interested in the landscape architecture puts around with that for a little bit. But the main thing that attracted me was just the environment, the huge big 10 collegiate feel and the athleticism and football obviously. I tried out for cheer my first season here, contemplated walking onto the men's team, but the cheer team needed Tumblrs in that I could do.(01:16):So was fortunate enough to do that. And yeah, the rest was history with that. Did it for my entire career here. I think I was on the five year program here, but I cheered for four and in 84 we were second at the national championships, which was very cool. And obviously the thrill of it was traveling with the football and the basketball teams. We only cheered for two sports at that point and just traveling and the comradery of, I think there was 20 people on the team and it was so much fun. It kind of consumed me. I probably could have been a better student, I'm not going to lie. We didn't have academic resources like they do now, but did as well as I could, but just had a great time. My sister ended up transferring here from Central Michigan and we were partners for a couple of years, so that was kind of cool. My parents thought it was, yeah, and graduated with a bachelor of landscape architecture and was minoring in musical theater, but ended up buying a one way ticket to the west coast and jumped right into musical theater right away. SoSpeaker 1 (02:29):A little bit then of how the YMSU experience impacted you, prepare you for your professional life.Speaker 2 (02:36):Interesting. I think the performance aspect of it, because even though I was majoring in landscape architecture and I was still interested in it, didn't know what I was going to do with it at the time, but the cheer and the dance, I was actually taking dance courses on the side at Ace of Dance Studio across the street, across Grand River from campus and kind of got the bug for that. So when I moved up to the west coast, was very fortunate and got some shows right away basically because of my gymnastics, if they were musicals, my extracurricular activities at MSU are what prepared me for the rest of my life kind of thing. It wasn't really academia, but yeah, it just, one thing led to another and I was very fortunate to write a wave of show after show after show through networking choreographers, directors, people I had worked with before, didn't have to audition a lot, so that was gymnastics and tumbling was starting to become a big kind of revolution and the musical theater aspect and timing was everything. I was in the right place at the right time.Speaker 1 (03:42):Well, Sage Kellerman, tell us a little bit about what attracted you to MSU and a little bit of your background.Speaker 3 (03:49):My family has always been Spartan fans, so that was obviously something that I've always kind of wanted to go to Michigan State. I thought that I wasn't going to end up going to college because I did quit gymnastics my sophomore year of high school. And that's your big recruiting year. And so I lost a lot of time there. I was talking to Michigan State before and then I quit. So then obviously I wasn't talking to them anym...

Offense vs New Mexico Starts at 1:00 When's the last time you've ever seen an offensive lineman run away from a fight? Probably the funniest thing all night. New Mexico came out like they wanted to make a statement for a new era of New Mexico, and they may have an endless well of College Crappe that they can run. Let's talk about Bryce Underwood, it took one game for Brian to become a believer. Bryce just turned 18 but we're making critiques that you would make about juniors and seniors. He's got a thing for parabolic arcs. We're finally seeing the Semaj Morgan we hoped to see when he was a sophomore. The whole stadium stopped and turned to Brian on the play action pass to Max Bredeson. Bryce is very accurate when he can throw in the pocket, if Channing Goodwin hadn't put his hands up the ball would've just gotten stuck in his facemask. They're not running Bryce but then he's throwing a monster block with his throwing shoulder. Offensive line kept Bryce from getting lit up so that's a W, especially against a couple decent transfer edges. So was Justice Haynes worth the price? Overall, Channing Goodwin was encouraging. Fred Moore had a bad drop.  [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]  2. Defense vs New Mexico Starts at 51:04 A little tricky to grade the defense. They gave up some stuff but some of it was aided by the officials. Wink seemed to struggle with the College Crappe a bit, but Ohio State doesn't run that and you need Wink to beat Ohio State. QB Jack Layne was a fearless dawg who kept getting back up all game. Michigan had a lot of rotation all game. Brandyn Hillman hit a guy hard enough that you didn't need Grapentine to tell you who it was, Jyaire Hill got beat. Enow Etta played more than was expected. Seth got deported from the Vatican once. Jaishawn Barham is probably the worst person to get hit by on this team. The defensive line doesn't have a superstar but it's deep like the 2022 line.  3. Hot Takes, Game Theory, and Special Teams Starts at 1:17:56 Takes hotter than Michigan Stadium after Jaishawn Barham got ejected. Michigan punted on 4th and 1 on their own 49, three thumbs down. Andrew Marsh fumbled a kickoff and hesitated on one he brought out but he's a true freshman so it is what it is, it'll get better. Hudson Hollenbeck was fine, there's room for improvement. Discussing the targeting call, note that this was recorded before the "upheld" decision. Oops, we've been pronouncing "Sprague" wrong apparently. Maybe we midwesternized his name.  4. Around the Big Ten with Jamie Mac Starts at 1:58:00 There are too many Big Ten teams so there are fewer notes for some games. Purdue 31, Ball State 0 Maryland 39, FAU 7 The Maryland freshman QB looks pretty decent. Total yardage was somehow even. Penn State 46, Nevada 11 Penn State might be a boring team to watch until they play Oregon. Iowa 34, Albany 7 The Iowa QB was still pretty pedestrian. Oregon 59, Montana State 13 USC 73, Missouri State 13 Welcome to the FBS, Missouri State. Illinois 52, Western Illinois 3 Northwestern 3, Tulane 23 Preston Stone had -42 rushing yards. The Northwestern head coach says to "believe in this quarterback". Indiana 27, Old Dominion 14 This Indiana team feels less explosive compared to last year. Washington 38, Colorado State 21 Jonah Coleman had 177 rushing yards on 24 carries, the Huskies are looking more explosive this season. They could be Pacific Chaos Team but their defense is still suspect.  Utah 43, UCLA 10 "Committing to UCLA is telling on yourself", Nico Iamaleava was 11/22 for 136 yards, 1TD/1INT. UCLA is still who they've been. Utah was 14/16 on 3rd down conversions. Michigan State 23, Western Michigan 6 Michigan State struggled to stop Western's edges. 138 yards in the last nine drives isn't great. MSU did get a 21-0 lead early, though. Rutgers 34, Ohio 31 Not a great start for Rutgers. Overall, an exciting game. Minnesota 23, Buffalo 10 This is much more of a blowout than the score indicates. Minnesota QB is 19/35 for 290 yards (2TD/1INT). Buffalo is a good MAC team, too. Wisconsin 17, Miami (Oh) 0 Billy Edwards is injured and Wisconsin struggled to move the ball. But Miami struggled more. Nebraska 20, Cincinnati 17 Dylan Raiola was 33/42 for 243 yards but it was mostly to the backs. Former Indiana QB Brendan Sorsby was the Cincy QB that threw the final interception. Half the event was that Taylor Swift was here. Ohio State 14, Texas 7 336 yards for Texas, 203 for Ohio State. The Buckeyes can't really run the ball. There was some "oh no" from the Ohio State fans. Texas got stopped four times on 4th down, twice inside the 10. Texas also has two massive facemask penalties. Ohio State also had weird drops from the receivers. When's the last time Ohio State had less than 200 yards of offense?

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") and intern Riley Sager are back in studio for the very first game recap show of a year, breaking down the absolute beatdown USC put on Missouri State. The Trojans took down the Bears 73-13, scoring at least 70 for the first time since the 2005 opener against Arkansas and putting up the most points since 1930 when USC hung 74 on California. It was a rude awakening for MSU who went on the road for its first game as an FBS program and got dismantled in the Coliseum by a very motivated Trojans squad. Offensively the Trojans were nearly flawless with only three incompletions thrown, 14 different players caught passes, 8 different players scored offensive touchdowns, averaged 10.5 yards per play, a perfect 7 for 7 in the red zone and one lone turnover on sack/fumble by backup quarterback Husan Longstreet. Defensively USC focused on using that bigger, more athletic defensive front to generate pressure and the plan worked, with the Trojans generating 5 sacks and 13 tackles for loss. The defense forced a pair of turnovers including a pick-six, gave up just 224 yards and a paltry 3.9 yards per play and 2.2 yards per rush. The crew talks about this near flawless performance and what it means, if anything, for this football team going forward. They also discuss the differences from last season including that improved defensive front, the impressive running backs room, Jayden Maiava keeping the ball out of harms way, a different vibe during warm-ups and dropping the "Drip Check" individual entrance for a more team-focused approach.

Today, we're excited to be joined by Jennifer Williams — an elite gymnast from Sweden, a 2025 European Beam and Floor finalist, and an incoming freshman at Stanford University.Unfortunately, just a few days after we recorded this interview, Jennifer partially ruptured her PCL, a ligament in her knee. As a result, her elite season has sadly come to an end, and her NCAA season is now uncertain, depending on how her recovery progresses. This obviously wasn't the way we planned to start the episode, but we wanted to share that important update, especially since the interview includes discussions about her goals and plans for the remainder of the season.That said, we're still thrilled to share this conversation with you. We've been longtime fans of Jennifer's beautiful gymnastics, and this interview offers great insight into her journey so far — including highlights from her 2025 season, why she chose Stanford, and her ambitions to compete at the LA 2028 Olympics.Thank you to our monthly Patreon supporters: Lee B, Cookiemaster, Christa, Happy Girl, Erica S, Semflam, Amy C, Maria L, Becca S, Cathleen R, Faith, Kerry M, M, Derek H, Martin, Sharon B, Randee B, MSU, Kimberly G, Robert H, Lela M, Mara L, Jenna A, Alex M, Mama T, Kelsey, Lidia, Maria P, Alicia O, Cristina K, Bethany J, Diane J, Kentiemac, Marni S, Betny T, Emily C, Cathy D, Lisa T, Libby C, Thiago, Taryn M, Dana B, Jamie S, Chuck C, Je_GL, Kaitlin, Susan P, Katertot, Mallory D, LFC_Hokie, Ella, Debbie, Megan F, Kay, Diane J, Julie B,, Austin K, Jane, Sarah, Amy, Stephen S, Johanna T, Alison S, Kristina T, Abigail W, Becky, Ola S, Jennifer K, Kate M, Claudia, Erin L, Sarah A, Kennedy B, Thomas B, Kihika N, Beth C, Amy, Renee PM, Ryan V, Brandon H, Tyler, Hayley B, Ben S, Kate & Landon, Danielle, ALittleUnderRotated, Dana C, Grace, Pat G , Lexi G, Laura N, Kathy, Katie A, Ruby B,, Róisín, Becca, Megan J, Emily D, Britton, Ry Shep, Reyna G, William A, MB, MJ L, Jackson G, Brittany A, Stella, Ulo F, Noah C, Melissa H, Alexis, William M, Trish, Susie, Leslie G, Catherine B, Karlin, Laura L, Katy S, J'nia G, Kathy M, Kathy S, Okcaro, Caroline P, JD B, Cookiecutter, Ailish D, Wil D, Caroline M, kcmojojojo & Sammy S!

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking USC's home opener against Missouri State. Looking to erase some bad memories from last season, the Bears took the brunt of the Trojans frustrations head on, falling 73-13 in the Coliseum in MSU's very first game as an FBS program. Coach Hyde starts off talking about what USC can get out of a blowout like this, feeling that such an overmatched opponent that didn't put up much resistance makes it harder to evaluate your own team. Even though most everything went right for USC, it was still a great opportunity to play against live competition, it just lacked some of the adversity a team will face during the season like 3rd and long situations or two-minute drills. Looking at the running backs, with everyone doing well every time they touched the ball and even a walk-on scoring for the first time in over 20 years, it makes the player evaluation that much harder. He did feel the offensive line played well but wanted them to not look back if they were blocking down field, a position they were in often since the run game was so successful. Coach said his message to his team this week would be that we are not world beaters just because we won by 60. He'd like to see some full scrimmaging this week just to get some better game conditioning that the starters weren't able to get on Saturday. He feels Georgia Southern might be something similar and this team really needs to get ready for week three on the road against a Purdue squad that looks much improved over last year. He finishes the show talking about USC dropping the "drip check" coming into the Coliseum and how he feels its a step in the right direction with players coming off the bus looking like a team instead of a bunch of individuals. Coach Harvey Hyde has been part of the Peristyle Podcast since 2008 and in the USC football world he is an expert on X's and O's, personnel, coaching philosophies and recruiting.

Montana State opened the 2025 season with a 59-13 loss to No. 7 Oregon.The 46 points is the largest margin of defeat suffered by the Bobcats since a 69-10 loss at Kansas State in 2008.Following the loss, MSU head coach Brent Vigen along with junior WR Taco Dowler & DT Alec Eckert addressed the media. 

On this latest edition of Tunnel Vision USCFootball.com's Ryan Abraham, Connor Morrissette (aka "Triple Double") and intern India Otto are back in studio for the very first game preview show of a year, taking a look at the Missouri State Bears. The Trojans have been chomping at the bit to get back out on the field this off-season and they will finally have their chance Saturday at 4:30pm PT against MSU, with the game being shown on the Big Ten Network. Coached by Ryan Beard, Missouri State is transitioning from FCS to FBS, leaving the Missouri Valley Conference for Conference USA, and the Trojans will be the Bears very first opponent as an FBS program. USC is the only FBS program to have never played an FCS foe, but this game will be as close to playing one as it gets. This is the podcast version of our Tunnel Vision video show.

Featured Musician: Magic Toaster THE VIDEO: [After THE JUMP: Things to be said.]  --------------------- 1. New Mexico Preview: Offense starts at the top They've got a very 2022 Colorado State vibe after importing a Big Sky team. We like their Big Sky RBs better than MSU's. Mikey Keene-ish QB wasn't the reason they gave Oregon trouble. 2. Preview in Review: Defense starts at 11:24 The wily open defensive end is. The rest of lines and their secondary are terrible, save a Bruce Feldman Freak who had six kick return touchdowns in the FCS. 3. Preview in Review: Defense starts at 22:58 We're so into Metcalfs. Shark Teeth mode now with players behind players. Only thing is they don't have so many superstars—just good guys all around. Can Jyaire Hill step forward into one? Benny? Derrick Moore is the one EXTRA guy that we can't lose. 4. Preview in Review: Offense starts at 35:50 Surviving Evan Link.

Mike and Rico spent the final hour of the week taking your calls on your best and worst case scenarios for Michigan and MSU football now that the season will officially get underway this weekend. They were joined by Wojo & Riger in cross-talk to wrap up the show.

Valenti and Rico give their expectations for MSU and Michigan football this season.

Valenti and Rico kicked off the show with a conversation about the Micah Parsons trade to the Packers now that they were a full day removed. The guys presented this season's first editions of both "The Picks" and Rico's "Prop Bet Casino," discussing a few CFB topics related to MSU and Michigan throughout the show.

We opened discussing MSU athletic director J Batt's roundtable with reporters Wednesday on a number of issues — NIL, MSU's resources, what to do with CMU, etc. Then a conversation with WMU football play-by-play voice Robin Hook on what to expect from the Broncos in their matchup Friday night against the Spartans (15:00). Plus, our Week 1 college football picks and best bets with Harry Gagnon (37:00).

"If you love cats, you should be concerned about trying to help bring those numbers down so animals don't suffer because this is why we do this. We don't want animals suffering, having unwanted litters of cats and having to have them suffer." This episode is sponsored-in-part by Maddie's Fund and 6 Degrees of Cats. In this powerful episode, host Stacy LeBaron sits down with Cathy Bissell, founder of Bissell Pet Foundation, who has revolutionized animal welfare through innovative programs reaching over 6,000 shelters across 49 states. From her unexpected entry into animal welfare during Hurricane Katrina to creating the nation's largest funded adoption event, Cathy's journey demonstrates how strategic thinking and passionate commitment can create systemic change. Her foundation has impacted nearly one million pets since 2011, but it's her latest initiative that's truly disrupting the industry. Cathy shares the incredible success of her groundbreaking "Fix the Future" program, launched in 2023 to address the veterinary care access crisis. In just under 18 months, this free spay/neuter initiative has sterilized 138,000 animals across 27 states, with an astounding 86,963 of those being cats. Through a network of 385 high-volume, high-quality relief veterinarians, the program is tackling overpopulation at its source while keeping costs remarkably low at just $35 per surgery. Cathy discusses the challenges of scaling this model, the importance of treating every animal that comes through their doors, and why she believes this "disruptor program" is essential for breaking down cost barriers that prevent people from accessing veterinary care. Whether you're working in a small grassroots rescue or leading a major shelter, this episode provides invaluable insights into creating sustainable, scalable solutions that address root causes rather than just symptoms. Cathy's emphasis on collaboration, her honest discussion about learning from mistakes (including a powerful story about declawing), and her practical advice for getting started at any age will inspire listeners to think bigger about their impact and consider how they can contribute to solving the access to care crisis in their own communities. Press play now for: Cathy's unexpected journey from Hurricane Katrina volunteer to founding a major animal welfare foundation The evolution from disaster response to adoption events to addressing systemic access to care challenges Incredible statistics: 138,000 spay/neuter surgeries in 18 months with 86,963 cats across 27 states How the Fix the Future program operates with 385 relief veterinarians at just $35 per surgery The power of MASH-style clinics and why community cat advocates should consider creating their own Why Michigan serves as a prime example with 3,000 cats out of 4,000 total surgeries at their clinic The importance of spaying/neutering before adoption and addressing kittens under six months How veterinary school limitations (graduating with only 1-3 spay/neuter surgeries) impact private practice capacity Cathy's honest story about learning from the declawing controversy and how it changed her foundation's policies Practical advice for getting involved at any age and making a difference beyond just donating money The role of Empty the Shelters adoption events in supporting shelter operations nationwide Why every animal deserves vaccination and ear-tipping as part of comprehensive TNR programs Resources mentioned: Bissell Pet Foundation website (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/) Empty the Shelters adoption events (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/programs/empty-the-shelters/) Fix the Future spay/neuter initiative (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/programs/fix-the-future/) Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine (https://www.vetmed.msstate.edu/) MSU shelter medicine program details (https://www.vetmed.msstate.edu/about/points-of-pride) United Spay Alliance website (https://www.unitedspayalliance.org/) United Spay Alliance wet lab training programs (https://www.unitedspayalliance.org/hqhvsn-wet-labs/) BISSELL Pet Foundation grant information (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/grant-information/) Operation Fix the Future clinics (https://www.bissellpetfoundation.org/operation-fix-the-future/) BISSELL Pet Foundation Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/bissellpets/) Sponsor Links: Maddie's Fund (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/maddies623) Six Degrees of Cats (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/6-degrees-of-cats/id1669849217) Follow & Review We'd love for you to follow us if you haven't yet.

On this episode of the Peristyle Podcasts hosts Ryan Abraham and Coach Harvey Hyde are back together talking USC football game week finally arriving, with the Missouri State Bears coming to the Coliseum to kick things off on Saturday afternoon. Last season head coach Ryan Beard led MSU to an 8-4 record, 6-2 in the Missouri Valley, good for 4th place in the conference. This season the Bears move up to Conference USA and will try to shock the world with an upset of USC on the road. The guys talk about what the challenges are of facing a lower level opponent out of the gate as opposed to a high profile opener like the Trojans had last season against LSU. They also share what they know about this Missouri State football program including how Beard took over for then head coach Bobby Petrino following the 2022 college football season. Petrino has since moved on to become the offensive coordinator at UNLV in 2023, Texas A&M in 2024 and now Arkansas in 2025. Coach Hyde talks about how he feels that high school football in Southern California is as good as anywhere in the country. Coach Hyde is a former high school coach and to see these top teams travel across the country and win was really impressive. He also talks about using private quarterback coaches and how he feels the SEC going to nine conference games will help USC keep its series with Notre Dame going into the future. Coach Harvey Hyde has been part of the Peristyle Podcast since 2008 and in the USC football world he is an expert on X's and O's, personnel, coaching philosophies and recruiting.

Noncon and Big Ten: The Bottom Four Starts at 0:54 New Mexico. Former Wisconsin player who was at Idaho takes over, brings the QB and the DE who gave Oregon problems last year. Keegan Johnson used to play at Iowa. Oklahoma. Spiderman pointing game. Their defense was great and their offense just as terrible. Mateer the savior doesn't have WRs and his OL is highly recruited and young. They spent a lot for Damonic Williams at DT, have a great FS and iffy corners. Punting and arm-punting is winning? CMU. New coach is the former Army OL coach, interesting dude who sends his coaches home at 5pm, got all local coaches because he wants to be there a long time. Got an Iowa QB. #18: Purdue. Odom: Why? Team was falling apart already under Walters and got gutted. Multi-year rebuild. #17: Maryland. Walking Locksley to the gallows season. Inexplicable receiver depth is gone. Jalen Husky (from Bowling Green) and secondary is the relative strength of the defense. How much will Maryland seriously try to compete in this sport or just throw their House money at basketball? #16: Northwestern. The2021 running backs are still there. Caleb Tiernan how do you not come home? Edges Hubbard and Anto Saka (getting draft hype) are good. Dillon Tatum late transfer followed Harlon Barnett. Receivers are gone though. #15: UCLA. Encouraging second half last year, new belief in Deshawn Foster. But they're back to rebuilding from the portal, look like they have to do that every year. Only 2/15 players with 200+ snaps returned. Did get Nico Iamaleava. They have some access to money, but where's it going? Jalen Berger is their RB!   [The rest of the writeup and the player after THE JUMP]  2. The Big Ten Middle Starts at 34:54 #14: MSU. Defense takes a step back, offense takes a step forward, Aidan Chiles could be a budding star. Jonathan Smith probably didn't understand what kind of fanbase he's walking into. #13: Wisconsin. Is this the last hurrah of Fickell? They dumped the spread and their best player is a huge RT so that's good; their defense is kind of falling apart so that's bad. #12: Rutgers. Schiano has done it: Rutgers is a perennial bowl team! No more Monangai but plenty of parts are back, especially on the OL. #11: Minnesota. High-variance offense, Koi Perich is an All-American. If a few of the transfers hit it's a strong defense. Could win 10 games vs a bad schedule, could also be just fighting for a bowl. #10: Nebraska. Raiola year 2 has a lot of weapons. They really spent to get him some WRs, Dane Key and a contested catch guy from Cal. Still going to be a 3-3-5 but playing tiny. The problem is their DL coach left and took the DL with him. #9: Washington. Only Big Ten RB to return, really like them. Also got back Boston. Upgraded from Stephen Belichick to Ryan Walters at DC, have a dual-threat QB who took over last year. Opposite Michigan: no kicker, weak in the trenches.  #8: Iowa. Mid! Offense improved quite a bit under Tim Lester, rose to 69th in SP+, had fewer wins because that's not Iowa. "We have a quarterback now!" /runs a waggle. #7: Indiana. Cignetti is tough to play for but he was able to rebuild through the portal again with guys who don't have to get to know Cignetti, including a new QB who might be pretty good.   3. The Contenders Starts at 1:10:38 #6: Illinois. Brian is wearing an Illinois shirt after a 10-2 season that was really lucky. Lose their playmakers from a team that was really lucky last year and did most of their work. Paid all these guys to return because they have a very weak schedule. Circle Illinois-Indiana. #5: USC. Ewebwuddy Woves Waymond. Scott Frost season where they lost to Maryland, banking on a massive, sorta overrated 2026 class. Have their choice receivers, have their QB in Maiava, have a magic wand to turn their secondary into poop. (#4 is Michigan) #3: Oregon. Dan Lanning is our top coach in the league but in-game management in Rose Bowl scares us. Doesn't lose bad games. Will be some talent drop-off, do we trust Dante Moore? He's had a year in the program and they didn't import someone. Probably spent the most of anybody in the portal. Bear Alexander at DT is a reason to doubt them; this team has a big potential to come together or completely fall apart with locker room issues. Easy schedule: Play two OSUs but not THAT OSU. #2: Ohio State. Have the best player on offense (Jeremiah Smith) and the best player on defense (Caleb Downs) in the country, but do they have a quarterback? Their OL is kinda iffy, but the LT situation looks like a hit, and then two transfers are battling for RT. Run game is meh, trust the pass game. People underrating how much they lost on the DL, but we like Beau Atkinson pickup. LB and secondary have a ton of talent: Sonny Styles and Igbinosun are back. S&P+ #1 because there's talent everywhere. If you're looking for reasons to hate on Ohio State: Matt Patricia is there to ruin their defense. #1: Penn State. Drew Allar started very low in our eyes, has improved to okay or mid, and then had a great bowl game. RBs can run in a straight line. TE lost Warren. Receiver is a little iffy, but best OL in Franklin's tenure (not saying much). Kotelnicki is a factor in the offense though. Reasons they're not overrated: defense is filled with talent and experience. Think national pundits see last year, see Big Ten teams that returned their quarterbacks and a strong defense won the last two national championships.   4. Hot Takes & Lightning Round Starts at 1:49:41 Takes hotter than this summer. At seven hours of podcasting we are getting loopy but we still answer most important, breakout players, biggest x-factors, who's your dude, and final predictions.
