Podcasts about Muhammad Ali

Dwight Stones is on the cover of the June 14, 1976 issue of Sports Illustrated, and he joins Past Our Prime to take us back to one of the most electric moments of his remarkable career. That cover came on the heels of a world record in the high jump — a performance that announced to the world that Stones wasn't just a great athlete, he was an event. Being on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1976 wasn't just an honor, it was a cultural moment. In an era before social media, before highlight reels and YouTube, that cover was how America met its sports heroes, and Stones understood exactly what it meant. He had arrived — not just as a world-class jumper, but as a personality, a presence, and a star. What made Stones different from every other high jumper of his era was that he understood something most track and field athletes never figured out — the competition didn't start when the bar went up, it started the moment he walked into the stadium. He studied Muhammad Ali the way a film student studies Scorsese, borrowing Ali's gift for psychological warfare and applying it to the high jump pit. He talked, he taunted, he performed, and he made sure that every opponent in the building knew he was there and that beating him was going to cost them something mentally before it cost them anything physically. He even pioneered a new kind of dual role in the sport, competing in a meet and simultaneously serving as an analyst — giving new meaning to the idea of a dual meet and blurring the line between athlete and broadcaster in a way nobody had ever done before. Stones first discovered the Fosbury Flop as a young athlete and never looked back, and the man who invented it — Dick Fosbury — became not just a technical influence but a mentor and a genuine friend. Fosbury changed the sport forever when he went over the bar backwards at the 1968 Mexico City Olympics, and Stones was among the first generation to fully embrace and master the technique. He'll tell us what it meant to have Fosbury in his corner and how a revolutionary way of clearing a bar became the foundation of everything Stones built his career on. It was more than a technique — it was a philosophy about seeing the world differently than everyone else, which suited Dwight Stones just fine. Then there are the two bronze medals — separated by four years and a lifetime of emotion. The first, at the 1972 Munich Olympics, was a stunning achievement for the youngest member of the American team, a teenager who had no business being on that podium and got there anyway through sheer talent and nerve. The second, at the 1976 Montreal Games, is a different story entirely — one that still irks him to this day. Stones joins Scott, Marc, and Bill on Past Our Prime to talk about both medals, the world record, the showmanship, the mind games, and what it felt like to be young, fearless, and on top of the world in the summer of 1976 — with his face on the cover of the greatest sports magazine that ever existed to prove it.

Cork boxer Spike O'Sullivan joins us to say he wants to fight Muhammad Ali's grandson, Nico Ali, on the undercard of Katie Taylor v Flora Pili at Croke Park. Muhammad Ali fought in Croke Park in 1972 when he defeated Alvin Lewis - and Spike says there would be a certain poetry in him facing Ali's Grandson at the same venue 54 years later.

It's hard to understand how much this episode means to us - Katie Taylor is a hero of Irish sport and a dream guest for a long time. This weekend, we joined her as she drove around the country promoting her final ever fight in Ireland's most iconic arena, Croke Park. Katie told us what it means to follow in Muhammad Ali's footsteps fighting in Croke Park and how she knew this was the right time to retire.She got emotional talking about the Olympics and the fight to get women's boxing recognised as a sport, and opened up about achieving a childhood dream to representing her country - Not to mention winning gold. Katie didn't stop at gold though - She's put on incredible battles as a professional boxer and is an inspiration to so many young girls in Ireland. As we travelled around we saw first hand how much that legacy means to Katie and how she hopes to inspire the next generation of sports stars. Tickets to see Katie fight in Croke Park will be on sale from Friday June 12, on Ticketmaster. This episode was sponsored by Rightstyle Furniture - RIGHT PRICE, RIGHT STYLE, RIGHT NOW.

260603PC Ein schwarzer TagMensch Mahler am 03.06.2026Am 3. Juni ist viel passiert. Leider viel Negatives. Das schwerste Zugunglück in der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland geschah am 3. Juni 1998: Die Zugkatastrophe bei Eschede. Während der Fahrt des ICE 884 «Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen» bricht kurz vor 11.00 Uhr bei Eschede in Niedersachsen ein Radreifen wegen Materialübermüdung. Der Zug, der sich auf dem Weg von Hannover nach Hamburg befindet und mit einer Geschwindigkeit von 200 Kilometern pro Stunde fährt, entgleist und prallt gegen die Pfeiler einer 200 Tonnen schweren Brücke, die einstürzt. 101 Menschen sterben, 88 werden schwer verletzt.

Begraben wird er auf dem Neuen Jüdischen Friedhof in Prag. Franz Kafka war ein deutschsprachiger jüdischer Schriftsteller aus Prag, dessen visionäre Romane und Erzählungen zu den bedeutendsten Werken der Weltliteratur gehören. Kafka war – wie so viele expressive Menschen – körperlich und seelisch nicht gesund. Am 3. Juni 1963 starb der Lächelnde Papst Johannes der 23. Er saß vom 28.

This week, we sit down with former world title challenger, elite trainer, and boxing historian "The Iceman" John Scully. Ahead of his June 6 event at the legendary Deer Lake training camp to mark the ten-year anniversary of Muhammad Ali's death, Scully breaks down the complex legacy of The Greatest - from the draft and his life outside the ring, to his sheer toughness and legend. He talks about being inspired by Ali as a kid and even pretending to be him during one of his toughest battles in the professional ring, plus his meetings with the champ, from the elation of his first to the poignancy of his last. We also dive into the realities of the sport today, the physical damage fighters carry, the importance of fighter reunions and Scully's ongoing philanthropic work supporting retired boxers who have fallen on hard times - and why more help is needed.

fWotD Episode 3309: Nation of Islam Welcome to featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia's finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 27 May 2026, is Nation of Islam.The Nation of Islam (NOI) is a religious organization founded in the United States by Wallace Fard Muhammad in 1930. A centralized and hierarchical group committed to black nationalism, it focuses attention on the black African diaspora, especially on African Americans. While describing itself as Islamic and using Islamic terminology, some argue its religious tenets differ substantially from orthodox Islamic traditions, in both Black America and the Old World. Scholars of religion characterize it as a new religious movement.The Nation teaches that there has been a succession of mortal gods, each a black man named Allah, of whom Fard Muhammad was the latest. It claims that the first Allah created the earliest humans, the dark-skinned Original Asiatic Race, whose members possessed inner divinity and from whom all people of color descend. It maintains that a scientist named Yakub then created the white race, a group that lacked inner divinity and whose intrinsic violence led them to overthrow the Original Asiatic Race and achieve global dominance. Setting itself against the white-dominated society of the United States, the NOI campaigns for the creation of an independent African American nation-state and calls for African Americans to be economically self-sufficient and separatist. A millenarian tradition, it maintains that Fard Muhammad will soon return aboard a spaceship to wipe out the white-dominated order and establish a utopia. Members worship in buildings, varyingly called temples or mosques. Practitioners are expected to live disciplined lives, adhering to strict dress codes, specific dietary requirements, and patriarchal gender roles.Wallace Fard Muhammad established the Nation of Islam in Detroit. He drew on various sources, especially Noble Drew Ali's Moorish Science Temple of America and black nationalist trends like Garveyism. After Fard Muhammad disappeared in 1934, the leadership of the NOI was assumed by Elijah Muhammad, who expanded the NOI's teachings, declared Fard Muhammad to have been the latest Allah, and built the group's business empire. Attracting growing attention in the late 1950s and 1960s, the NOI's influence expanded through high-profile members such as the black nationalist activist Malcolm X and the boxer Muhammad Ali. Deeming it a threat to domestic security, the Federal Bureau of Investigation worked to undermine the group. Following Elijah Muhammad's death in 1975, his son Wallace D. Muhammad took over the organization, moving it towards Sunni Islam and renaming it the World Community of Islam in the West. Members seeking to retain Elijah Muhammad's teachings re-established the Nation of Islam under Louis Farrakhan's leadership in 1977. Farrakhan expanded the NOI's economic and agricultural operations and continued to develop its beliefs, for instance by drawing connections with Dianetics.Based in the United States, the Nation of Islam has also established a presence abroad, with membership open only to people of color. In 2007 it was estimated to have 50,000 members. The Nation has also influenced the formation of other groups like the Five-Percent Nation, United Nation of Islam, and Nuwaubian Nation. Muslim critics accuse the NOI of promoting teachings that are not authentically Islamic. Other critics, like the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League, have characterized it as a hate group that promotes racism against white people, antisemitism, and anti-LGBT rhetoric.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:48 UTC on Wednesday, 27 May 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Nation of Islam on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Kendra.

7x Muay Thai & kickboxing world champion Chad Collins returns to the Proper True Yarn Podcast to tell the full story behind his first world title win — and the emotional moment with his father that changed why he fights forever. From bawling in the change room while getting his hands wrapped, to facing Thai superstar Yod IQ in Melbourne on Rebellion, Chad opens up about manifestation, mindset, and the green lights that told him he was going to win before the bell even rang. He also shares the powerful words his dad — now living with Parkinson's — said to him after the fight: "You have now paid the ferryman." In this episode:Winning his first world title vs Yod IQ in Melbourne (2022)Crying in the change room before the fightHow he accidentally discovered manifestationHis dad's Parkinson's diagnosis and "paying the ferryman"Fighting to make his old man proudGym mottos: "rip him apart like a hot chook" and "whack 'em and stack 'em"Muhammad Ali's hype man Bandini and the power of confidenceWhy he fights as often as possible"Your youth is only on loan"The butcher bird that appeared after his dog passed awayWhy the highs come with the lowsA raw, emotional conversation about fighting, family, faith and the unseen forces behind a champion.

First, the story of Mike Flynn whose remarkable resilience and incredible fitness helped achieve his goal to play college football at the age of fifty-nine but at its heart, his is a story of redemption. Living with pain is sadly all too common. That was the fate that befell Meg Robson Austin. But she never allowed herself to think it was too late to win back her life and so she set about a journey that ended with her claiming the crown of the World's Strongest Woman. Arshay Cooper, born and raised in Chicago's notorious West Side could easily have slipped into gang life and violence, but he carved a different path through sport - Arshay's sporting journey was in a boat as a rower. It is just over a year since the world lost "Big" George Forman, and whilst revered for his fights with Muhammad Ali, his Olympic gold in 1968 and of course his grills, it is his longevity and his "it's never too late" attitude we are focusing in on because back in 1994 George Foreman shocked everyone by winning a second world title at the age of forty-five!

This week on Past Our Prime, the guys crack open the May 10, 1976 issue of Sports Illustrated and bounce all over the sports world of the mid-'70s. We talk about Muhammad Ali looking very un-Ali-like in his sluggish fight with Jimmy Young and how many thought Ali lost this one. We break down the end of Arnold Palmer's days o the PGA tour when he began to realize his glory days were starting to fade, and we discuss rising stars like ABA star David Thompson and Olympic swimmer John Naber who both were taking over the spotlight. Along the way, there's plenty of classic POP randomness too — Little League snack shack junk food, terrible 1970s baseball TV coverage led by Warner Wolf, old-school hockey stories and all the weird little moments that made sports back then so much fun. But the biggest story was on the smallest guy… Hall of Fame jockey Angel Cordero Jr. stood just 5'3 and weighed a buck 13… but that didn't stop him from being one of the giants of the horse racing world. The star jockey is still very active today but we slowed him down long enough to have him tell us about his unforgettable ride in the 1976 Kentucky Derby aboard Bold Forbes. Cordero talks about stealing the race right from the start, holding off heavy favorite Honest Pleasure and pulling off one of the biggest Derby upsets of the decade. The guys also look back at Cordero's incredible career, which included more than 7,000 wins and three Kentucky Derby victories, including wins with Cannonade and Spend a Buck. And from there, the conversation turns into something even bigger than horse racing. Cordero talks about what it meant to become the first Puerto Rican jockey to win the Kentucky Derby when he got into the winners circle with Colonnade and how that helped open doors for so many riders who came after him. He also shares some great stories about his friendships with baseball legends Roberto Clemente and Orlando Cepeda, especially Cepeda, whom he considered like family. It's one of those conversations that perfectly fits what Past Our Prime is all about — great sports stories, bigger personalities and a chance to revisit an era that still feels larger than life 50 years later. Join us for another great Past Our Prime show as we cash in a winning ticket once again this week with Hall of Fame jockey, Angel Cordero Jr. Listen, download, review, subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

This week the Bad Dads take a pounding with The Bleeder (2016), the Liev Schreiber-led biopic of Chuck Wepner — the Bayonne brawler whose improbable 15-round fight with Muhammad Ali inspired Sylvester Stallone to write Rocky.

I sat down with Jake Humphrey and Damian Hughes — the guys behind one of the biggest podcasts on the planet — and what they told me completely reframed how I think about success. Forget the big goals, forget the hustle porn — turns out the only thing separating the best in the world from everyone else is a handful of tiny, almost embarrassingly simple daily habits. Jake Humphrey is one of Britain's best-respected sports presenters. Formerly a Premier League presenter at BT Sport, Jake has covered events ranging from Formula 1 to the London Olympics and was the youngest-ever presenter of the BBC's Match of the Day. Damian Hughes is an expert on high-performing cultures. A trusted advisor to businesses and sportspeople around the world, he has been praised by the likes of Richard Branson, Muhammad Ali, Roger Banister, and Alex Ferguson. Get their brilliant new book Micro-Habits: Tiny Changes That Supercharge High Performance here: https://www.penguin.co.uk/books/476360/micro-habits-by-hughes-jake-humphrey-and-damian/9781529976205 Anthony Scaramucci is the founder and managing partner of SkyBridge, a global alternative investment firm, and founder and chairman of SALT, a global thought leadership forum and venture studio.

Share a commentHappiness sells best when it sounds easy: stay comfortable, avoid conflict, keep your private life hidden, and everything will work out. Then Jesus opens the Sermon on the Mount and says something that feels almost upside down. He calls the blessed life “true, abiding happiness” and attaches it to peacemakers, the humble, the pure, and even those who are hunted and harassed for doing what is right. That's where we start, clearing away the confusion about what God means by happiness and why the path often begins with dying to self. We dig into “Blessed are the peacemakers” and why Jesus doesn't praise the undisturbed. Biblical peacemaking is active, costly, and honest. It carries the weight of shalom, a whole life, and it refuses the shortcuts of glossing over sin or sacrificing truth. We connect that to the cross and to everyday Christian witness: when we share the gospel, we step into the role of ambassador and deliver the news that peace with God is available through Jesus Christ. That kind of peacemaking can ruffle feathers, cost relationships, and sometimes invite real opposition. From a wartime story about messengers announcing peace, to the quiet power of Robert Chapman's kindness toward a hostile critic, we explore what persecution for righteousness' sake actually is, and what it is not. We also rehearse the Beatitudes as a direct challenge to the world's “me first” happiness script, ending with a sobering reflection on success and emptiness through Muhammad Ali's words: “I had the world, and it was nothing.” If you want a deeper, steadier joy that holds up when life gets hard, press play, then subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.Get instant, biblically faithful answers to your Bible questions. https://www.wisdomonline.org/ask Learn more: https://www.wisdomonline.org/Support the show

"If you've got one ounce of pride, you can't enter the hereafter." From the man who called himself the greatest, that statement lands differently. Ali understood something that took a lifetime to learn — that the gifts we're given are on loan, not owned. The strength, the beauty, the wit, the fame. None of it is ours. And the moment we claim it as ours, we cut ourselves off from the very source it came from. Raghunath and Kaustubha explore that teaching alongside one of the most tender moments in the Srimad Bhagavatam — where Krishna tells Indra directly: I stopped your sacrifice out of mercy. I wanted you to always remember me. The Bhagavad Gita makes the same point with striking precision — those absorbed in material opulence and sense enjoyment cannot attain samadhi, the focused clarity of mind needed to perceive the truth. One ounce of pride blocks the signal entirely. Do the inner work and salvation comes naturally. Reframe the crumble Srimad Bhagavatam 10.27.14-28 ******************************************************************** LOVE THE PODCAST? WE ARE COMMUNITY SUPPORTED AND WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO JOIN!
