The conversation continues in Part 2 as Brian Peters opens up on his decade-long bond with Katie Taylor and why they've operated on a handshake deal without a contract. Brian sets the record straight on the Amanda Serrano and Chantelle Cameron fights, reflects on coming out of retirement in Connemara to change Irish sport forever and shares a brilliant story about spending a day in a hotel room with Muhammad Ali before they headed to a classic Irish boxing bout involving Steve Collins. Plus, Brian reveals details about Katie's life after boxing - from producing a brand-new theatrical stage play about her life (featuring a 21-date tour, Q&A, and dates in the Aran Islands) to launching new business where the plan is to fight just as hard in the boardroom as she did in the boxing ring. We also discuss in greater detail his workings with Irishmen Pierce O'Leary, Steven Cairns and Adam Olaniyan - with the retirement ship most definitely skuttled at Killary Harbour. Hosted on Acast.

With over 20 years' experience in broadcast TV as a director, producer and writer, Davies has made a number of documentaries, including the RTS-nominated A Bat and Ball War, and worked on numerous sports events including the FIFA World Cup, Rugby World Cup, Olympic Games, Paralympics, Asian Games, Wimbledon, Open Championship and Tour de France.His broadcast experience opened the door to event management roles, and Davies has worked as Broadcast Venue Manager on the past three Rugby World Cups. He was also the Broadcast Project Manager for the Special Olympics in 2019. During his early years, he worked on the legendary sports magazine show, Trans World Sport and his interviewed some of the biggest names in world sport, including Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali, Maradona, Pele, a 13-year-old Tiger Woods, Jack Nicklaus, Wayne Gretzky, Kip Keino and even Whitney Houston and John Candy.In this episode we talk about how commentators are chosen, the economics of sports broadcasting, how modern technology is changing how we watch sports and what the future holds in the digital age for viewers.Davies lives in Nelson, New Zealand, where he lives with his wife and six (yes, it's not a typo !) children. He enjoys a number of sports including cycling, running, boxing, hunting, fishing and paddling. He is a frequent visitor to the UK, where he still has a base, and to Asia, where he does production work for the BBC.Also, for our Real Science of Sport Members, stick around after the show for some bonus content as we continued our chat with Tony and got even more fascinating insights, including his thoughts on social media influencers as broadcast 'partners', why he doesn't buy into the 'all access' documentaries so frequently made about sports events, and his choice of best documentary ever made.

Ade Oladipo, Emily Eubank, and Liam Gough are back with another hard-hitting, no-holds-barred episode of The Punch Perfect Podcast on BBC Sounds!After a quick heads-up to mind young ears for a few explicit slips, the crew jumps headfirst into 'The Clinch' to take on a legendary mythical matchup debate. Producer Jay delivers the envelope, setting off the three-minute timer as the hosts dissect a massive claim: "Muhammad Ali wouldn't be champion in the current heavyweight scene." How would 'The Greatest' fare against modern heavyweight giants, or is classic speed and ring IQ enough to rule any era? The team has just one round to trade arguments and deliver a final verdict.Then, it's time to head back to 'The Blueprint' to build out the next critical layer of their Frankenstein GOAT. With George Foreman lock-in for power, Chris Eubank Senior for heart and resilience, Muhammad Ali taking marketability, and Oleksandr Usyk locked in for technical skill, the hosts turn their attention to physical durability: THE CHIN. This segment is all about iron jaws, standing up to ultimate punishment, and refusal to hit the canvas. Ade, Emily, and Liam pitch three elite durable fighters each, battling through tense elimination rounds to agree on the single ultimate chin to add to their growing creation.Finally, the bell rings for 'The Final Round' as Ade steps up to fire off hot takes on the sport's structural flaws. The panel goes back and forth on whether boxing desperately needs a single governing body, if the Olympic style misleads pro prospects, and if inconsistent ring sizes amount to implicit cheating.Unfiltered, expert, and packed with fiery debate—this is essential listening for fight fans.

Send us Fan MailBoxing arguments never stay polite for long, and that's exactly what makes this roundtable so fun. We sit down and go straight from laughs to legacy: who we grew up watching, why certain fighters still feel untouchable, and how the sport shaped our idea of toughness, discipline, and greatness.We debate favorite fighters and the greatest heavyweight of all time, with names like Mike Tyson, Muhammad Ali, and Rocky Marciano at the center of the storm. From there, we zoom out into boxing history and the weight-class eras that made fans for life, especially the middleweights who brought speed, skill, and all-out wars. We also get into what's changed: more divisions, fewer shared “appointment TV” moments, and the way MMA has pulled attention and athletes into a different lane.Then we go practical. Boxing workouts come up for a reason: heavy bag rounds, shadowboxing, jump rope, footwork, stretching, and the mental grind that separates people who dabble from people who fight. We talk venues like Las Vegas and Madison Square Garden, but also the underrated factor fans feel every weekend: time zones, start times, and why being the main event matters.We close with the modern lightning rod: Jake Paul's boxing career. Is he a real boxer, an entertainer, a net positive for boxing's future, or all of the above? Listen, pick a side, and then help us out: subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review.

It's Thursday, August 6th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Algerian, African church going underground The Protestant church in Algeria is going underground. The Muslim-majority country is located in North Africa. Authorities there have shut down nearly all Evangelical churches over the past decade. Many Christians now meet secretly in homes. One Algerian pastor told Morning Star News, “The situation is undeniably difficult because we are deprived of fellowship. But God's work must not stop. We desperately lack Bibles and Christian books, as customs officials systematically confiscate them even when friends bring them from the West.” Algeria is ranked 20th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of the worst countries for the persecution of Christians. British soldiers are asking about Christ Faith is increasing in the British military. Army chaplains report more recruits are asking about Christianity, attending services, and requesting baptism. Dr. Martin Gliniecki is the executive director of the Soldiers' and Aviators' Scripture Readers Association. He told Christian Today, “We have prayed for revival in our nation for many years now and … revival in our Armed Forces too. Something is happening. While our Armed Forces are the smallest in modern history, the harvest remains plentiful.” In Luke 10:2, Jesus said, “The harvest truly is great, but the laborers are few. Therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” British millionaire stands up for persecuted street preachers A British millionaire is standing up for persecuted street preachers. Businessman Samuel Leeds has pledged to fund the legal representation of Christian street preachers who are targeted by police. He told Truth Times, “We see Christians being persecuted all over the world, but seeing it happen in Great Britain — seeing the disdain, the hatred, and now the oppression of Christian voices — really bothers me. … Where Christians are being unfairly targeted simply for preaching their faith, I'm prepared to put my money behind defending them.” Amen! Democrat primary voters elect another leftist The left wing of the Democratic Party continues to win election primaries. Dr. Abdul El-Sayed, whose parents came to America from Egypt, won the Democrat primary for U.S. Senate in Michigan on Tuesday. The 41-year-old is an epidemiologist who received his Doctor of Medicine from Columbia University, served as director of the Department of Health, Human, and Veterans Services of Wayne County, Michigan, from 2023 to 2025, and was a candidate in the 2018 Michigan gubernatorial election. EL-SAYED: “What a race! You know, in the words of Muhammad Ali, we shook up the world!” Endorsed by socialist Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont, among other leftists, he narrowly defeated Congresswoman Haley Stevens, a pro-Israel moderate Democrat. Remarkably, super PACs, political action committees, spent $60 million on the race, supporting Stevens 9-1. El-Sayed champions the abolition of the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement known as ICE, ending most U.S. military aid to Israel, and wants a universal, government-funded health insurance program that covers everyone. If you take the time to watch his 19-minute victory speech, which we have linked in our transcript at www.TheWorldview.com, you will notice he is an articulate spokesman for his cause. EL-SAYED: “So, whether you voted for me or voted for my opponent or didn't vote at all, we're inviting you to that movement to get money out of politics, so we can put money back in pockets, and finally guarantee the promise of health care through Medicare for All.” If elected in November, Abdul El-Sayed would be the first Muslim in the Senate. Democrats are moving left The views of Democrats are shifting further to the left. A new Reuters/Ipsos poll found 71 percent of Democrats label themselves as liberal. That's up from 55 percent in 2012. Most liberal Democrats identify certain positions as essential to being a liberal. These include increasing taxes on corporations and billionaires, expanding access to abortion, and government provided healthcare coverage. In Romans 13:4, the Apostle Paul identified different priorities for government: “For [a ruler] is God's minister to you for good. But if you do evil, be afraid; for he does not bear the sword in vain; for he is God's minister, an avenger to execute wrath on him who practices evil.” Amazon hits $3 trillion in market value Amazon became the fifth company to reach $3 trillion dollars in market value on Monday. The tech company saw growth in its cloud-computing services as demand for Artificial Intelligence surges. Apple, Microsoft, Alphabet, and Nvidia are the other companies that have reached a market value of $3 trillion dollars in the past. Doctors successfully operated on baby in the womb And finally, doctors successfully operated on a baby while still in the womb. Baby Theo was diagnosed with a severe intestinal defect in the womb. Indeed, his intestines were completely outside his body. Such cases can require many surgeries after birth, and babies do not always survive. Parents Maisie Savage and Josh French live in London. They were referred to a clinical trial at Texas Children's Hospital. At 26 weeks of pregnancy, surgeons conducted the groundbreaking operation. It's the first surgery of its kind in the U.S. Praise God! Baby Theo was born full-term in February. Josh recently told Good Morning America that Theo is thriving. Listen. JOSH: “He's doing all the things that a normal, healthy baby should be doing. He's shouting. He's screaming. He blows raspberries. It's just fantastic having him home.” Psalm 127:3 says, “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from Him."

#142Josh sits down with Drew Nieporent, one of the most influential restaurateurs in American dining and the man behind Montrachet, Tribeca Grill, Nobu, Corton, and Bâtard. Over four decades he opened 40 restaurants and has partnered with some of the world's best chefs, from David Bouley to Paul Liebrandt to Marcus Glocker. Recorded at Nobu Downtown, the conversation centers around Drew's belief that the restaurateur is the director, and the chef, the wine, the service, and the room are the cast. His new memoir "I'm Not Trying to Be Difficult" traces the whole arc.Drew digs into the complicated relationship between a restaurateur and the chefs he builds alongside, why he refused to name a restaurant after a chef ("if it fails, you can never use your name again"), and what actually keeps a restaurant alive for decades: affordable rent, replicable quality, a comfortable room, and gentle prices. He breaks down naming Nobu over Matsuhisa, pruning the menu to a core that has barely changed in 32 years, and how a teenage job at McDonald's led to the Daily Burger at Madison Square Garden, 2,000 a game. There are detours through Danny Meyer, Keith McNally, Robert De Niro, and Muhammad Ali, and it closes on the hard truth of his own metaphor: they can make a movie about your life, but the director never gets to walk up and take the awardLinks and resources
In Week 3 of this special six-part Mental Toughness Academy series on The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman introduces two of the most powerful mental training tools for developing lasting mental toughness: The Power to Reframe and I Am Statements.Mental toughness isn't about avoiding adversity—it's about conditioning your mind to respond differently when adversity inevitably comes. Drawing from nearly two decades of coaching championship teams, Olympic athletes, Fortune 500 organizations, and elite performers, Ben explains how the way you interpret challenges ultimately determines the actions you take and the results you create. Through the deeply personal story of his mother and the inspiring journeys of Muhammad Ali and former NFL captain Will Compton, you'll discover how choosing a new perspective can transform setbacks into momentum and belief into action.In this session, you'll learn how to stop allowing negative circumstances to dictate your future and instead train your mind to focus on solutions, opportunity, and purposeful action. You'll work through guided exercises inside your Mental Toughness Playbook to identify how you've responded to adversity in the past, practice reframing those moments, and begin creating powerful "I Am" statements that align your identity with the person you're becoming.Mental toughness begins with the story you tell yourself. Change that story, and you change your future.This isn't about pretending life is easy. It's about developing the mental conditioning to respond with intention, strengthen your belief, and continue performing at your highest level—no matter what challenges come your way.----------------------------------Download Your Mental worksheet herePower to Reframe: https://drive.google.com/file/d/17CShkKw6qvnIT2D6IrQTNOtN1uckN9U4/view?usp=sharingI Am Statements: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fz9tVcaPOD8_XmCyGrRD6mdXT_lVBRPc/view?usp=sharingPurchase your Mental Toughness playbook - https://a.co/d/0bESdAooPurchase your YOUR Burn Journal & Prizefighter Day Yearly Tracker - https://a.co/d/0aDN69s2----------------------------------Ready to take the next step?Visit www.WorkWithBNC.com to learn more about the Mental Toughness Academy, connect with our team, and get your questions answered.Don't miss the opportunity to grow as a coach and leader.Join Ben Newman for The Leaders Academy beginning September 16—an 8-week live coaching experience designed to challenge your thinking, raise your standard, and elevate your leadership.www.bennewmancoaching.com/leaders-academy---------------------------------Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a messageOrder my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewmanConnect with me everywhere else:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693
A lot of people love boxing stories because they're clean: a tough kid fights his way out, the crowd roars, the credits roll. Irish Bobby Cassidy's life is not clean, and that's exactly why this conversation matters. I'm joined by Bobby Cassidy Jr. (longtime journalist and author of Requiem for a Middleweight: The Irish Bobby Cassidy Story) to tell the full story of a Levittown legend who kept moving forward, even when the punches came from outside the ring. We go deep in boxing history, including Sunnyside Garden in Queens, the road to Madison Square Garden, and the wild fact that Irish Bobby turned pro without an amateur career. Bobby Jr. shares a unforgettable Muhammad Ali moment after a controversial loss in Miami, plus the pop-culture curveball of his dad's cameo in Rocky. Then we get into the harder truths: childhood abuse, alcoholism, boxing business politics, and how post-career bookmaking and loansharking pulled the family into adult stakes too early. We also talk about Cassidy's decades long friendship with Sonny Franzese, and the most painful stretch of all, dementia, paranoia, and the shock of losing trust with someone you've been loyal to your whole life. If you care about boxing biography, Long Island history, sports journalism, and the real cost of perseverance, this one stays with you.

Bomani Jones is joined by journalist Joel Anderson for a Time Machine Thursday edition of The Right Time, looking back at the cultural impact and unforgettable moments of the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. Bo and Joel examine how the games put a growing Atlanta on the global map and navigate the city's complex history as a cultural hub in the 1990s. They count down the most defining figures and legendary stories from the games, starting with Muhammad Ali's deeply symbolic lighting of the Olympic torch. They also revisit the jaw-dropping grit of gymnast Kerri Strug competing through a severe injury to win gold for the American team.1234Later, they dive into one of the era's great tragedies: how the feds and media rushed to judge security guard Richard Jewell following the Centennial Olympic Park bombing. Finally, they celebrate the incredible athletic achievements on the track, discussing the complicated legacy of long-jump icon Carl Lewis and the absolute dominance of Michael Johnson flying to a historic world record in his signature gold spikes . . .

Thirty years later, we can still hear it: the roar of Atlanta's 1996 Summer Olympics, the crowd noise bouncing off concrete, and the way the city felt like the center of the world. We kick things off with the fun parts people love to remember, from landing tickets the old-school way to watching basketball in the Georgia Dome and soaking up the larger-than-life spectacle of the Centennial Olympic Games.Then we go behind the curtain. Jimmy shares what it was like working on Olympic-related audio and video production at a local studio, including a high-pressure edit of Mickey Hart's opening ceremony drum track that quietly shaped what millions saw on TV. We also talk about Muhammad Ali lighting the torch, John Williams' Olympic music, and why these moments hit so hard when you know the work and the stakes behind them.The heart of the conversation is personal and heavy: walking out of Centennial Olympic Park and hearing the 1:20 a.m. explosion that became the Olympic Park bombing. I tell my remembrance of the night, what we learned afterward, and why Richard Jewell's treatment in the media still feels like a warning label on modern headlines.We wrap with the show's signature blend of culture and music history: a jaw-dropping Empire State Building stunt documentary, a few sports oddities, plus rock talk on the Rolling Stones' new album Foreign Tongues.

The event includes networking, breakfast and a spirited discussion of the latest news in our area. Our panel includes: Stacy Durbin, Semonin Realtors; Jakeeva Lee, Greater Louisville Association of Realtors; and Jon Mand, Lenihan Sotheby's. Tickets and registration are available here.The Starks Building project, which aims to add residential housing at the corner of 4th Street and Muhammad Ali, could be huge for Downtown Louisville. We go over the latest with the long-delayed effort on this week's Access Louisville podcast.Senior Reporter Joel Stinnett is on the podcast this week to tell us about the recent sale of 315 W. Muhammad Ali Blvd., which is next door to the Starks, and how it could fit into the project. A group of investors including developer Jeff Underhill (who's behind the Starks project) just bought the building for $300,000. Amazingly, that purchase price is down from $2.5 million just a year or so ago. Stinnett notes that the developers have yet to secure financing for the Starks redo. But Underhill said the purchase of 315 W. Muhammad Ali adds several advantages to the project, if and when it gets off the ground. For one, the inclusion of 315 W. Muhammad Ali in the project creates the potential for a rooftop bar or recreation area on the fifth floor roof, something Underhill said would be unfeasible on the taller Starks Building. More detail on that story here.Also on the show we also talk about a new entrepreneurial space in NuLu, the latest with the Highlands "moist" vote and a new burrito joint heading to St. Matthews.Access Louisville, sponsored by Baird, is a weekly podcast from Louisville Business First.

Many entrepreneurs feel overwhelmed by today's noisy, polarized media landscape, and unsure how to stand out without becoming controversial or “salesy.” Our guest, Bryan Mattimore, innovation expert and author of Trump's Playbook: His 50 Brand and Influence Strategies and How to Use Them Ethically, has helped companies generate over $3 billion in new revenue by turning bold influence tactics into practical, ethical branding strategies. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Bryan unpack what makes figures like Donald Trump, Taylor Swift, Steve Jobs, Winston Churchill, and Muhammad Ali so unforgettable from a marketing perspective. Bryan explains how Trump's rise is a masterclass in branding, attention, and message simplicity, and how business owners can apply those same principles without the divisiveness. You'll hear how concepts like binary messaging, narrative shortcuts, symbols, memes, and manufactured villains work psychologically, and how they translate into powerful, memorable brand positioning. Bryan also dives into the idea of the attention economy, why simple, repeatable messages win over complex explanations, and how letting your audience “fill in the blanks” can make your brand feel more personally relevant. From “Make America Great Again” to “Just Do It,” he breaks down why the best slogans and stories stick, and how small businesses can create their own clear, consistent, and emotionally charged messaging that cuts through the clutter. In the second half, the conversation shifts to ideation and AI as a practical toolkit for entrepreneurs. Bryan reveals how he used his 50 influence principles with AI to generate hundreds of strategic ideas for brands and institutions like Harvard, NPR, Disney, Planned Parenthood, and Oreo, and how you can do the same for your business, nonprofit, or career. Instead of using AI just to “polish emails,” he shows you how to use it as a brainstorming partner to spark new campaigns, positioning angles, and growth strategies, even when you feel stuck or resource-constrained. https://youtu.be/RSOO3-lOuJ0?si=u7aN_zQXFqC6n9g- If you've ever felt frustrated that your brand isn't getting noticed, or you're uncomfortable with the way some high-profile figures gain attention, this episode offers a blueprint for ethical influence. You'll walk away with a new understanding of how bold ideas, clear messages, and AI-powered ideation can help you differentiate your brand, attract the right audience, and generate fresh opportunities, without compromising your values. Quotes: “From a marketing standpoint, you've got to start by building the brand; otherwise nobody's ever heard of you, nobody knows who you are and what you stand for.” “Trump has taken narrative shortcuts; five or six word phrases where the entire story is implicit. He doesn't even have to tell the story; you kind of get it.” “We live in an attention economy: the more information we get as consumers, the more important it is to stand out and gain attention, and attention now is the power.“ Contact Details: Get Started with Growth Engine Today Follow Bryan Mattimore on Facebook and Unlock your Team's Creative Potential Connect with Bryan Mattimore on LinkedIn Join Bryan Mattimore on X Grab a Copy of Trump's Playbook on Amazon
How did a young partner go from “no plan, no book” to doubling his business year over year—without ever feeling like a salesperson? In this episode, you'll hear how deliberate preparation, mentors, and genuine relationships can transform a legal career into a true rainmaking engine. In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Alex Karasik discuss: Family values and early influences on career and character The power of preparation and the Muhammad Ali mindset Learning business development from elite mentors Relationship-based rainmaking and “sales-free” selling Starting early: advice for law students and young lawyers on BD Key Takeaways: Success in law—whether in the courtroom or in business development—is largely determined by the preparation you do when no one is watching. Treating business development as relationship-building and problem-solving, rather than “selling,” removes the anxiety many lawyers feel around sales. A strong network, built on kindness, favors, and “mitzvahs” with no expectation of return, often becomes the foundation of a durable book of business. Carving out protected time for business development—evenings, early mornings, or weekends—is essential if you want to stop “running someone else's race.” The biggest regret for many successful lawyers is not starting earlier: law school and even college are not too soon to begin building a network and presence. "If you don't make time for business development, it's not going to happen. It's not something that just happens by chance or by luck." — Alex Karasik Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.

Muhammad Ali's Grandson Nico Ali Walsh Fights to Protect the Ali Act. Sole Free with Harlan FriedmanNico Ali Walsh joins Harlan Friedman on Sole Free from the rooftop of Spring Studios during the 2026 Tribeca Festival for a powerful conversation about boxing, legacy, justice and what it truly means to carry the Ali name.The grandson of Muhammad Ali opens up about growing up with “The Greatest” as the only grandfather he ever knew, why his proudest fight may be happening outside the ring, and why he refuses to stay silent as the future of the Muhammad Ali Boxing Reform Act becomes a major issue in combat sports.Nico speaks candidly about fighter rights, Zuffa Boxing, Dana White, the UFC model, his testimony in Washington, D.C., and why he believes boxing must remain a sport where fighters are protected from exploitation.He also reflects on the remarkable parallels between his own journey and his grandfather's — more than 50 years after Muhammad Ali stood before the government over injustice, Nico now finds himself speaking before that same government in defense of fighters' rights.Plus, the conversation takes some unexpected turns:

On this episode of the MalloryBros Podcast, the bros kick things off with the Weekend Recap before breaking down one of the wildest stretches of NBA trade news in recent memory and giving their thoughts on the league's biggest moves. They then discuss Sony's decision to move away from physical PlayStation releases, and have a conversation about the future of physical media, considering both the business move and the reaction from collectors/advocates. From there, they talk Lil Wayne's legacy and how it has begun to shift in the eyes of fans. This coming after his recent attendance issues to start his tour. Later, the bros talk about how happiness still seems to be frowned upon in hip-hop, this leads to a conversation about Kendrick Lamar's next album, the Lupe Fiasco hate, and ask an interesting question: Are we actually capable of letting our favorite artists retire? The conversation continues with thoughts on Michael B. Jordan's executively produced Muhammad Ali film on the way and the continued trend of biopics. They continue by paying tribute to Nolan Wells and discussing the recurring trend of the "missing Black friend". They close the episode with Terrance giving his take on the latest of the Brandon Aiyuk / JD5 situation. Follow Us on Twitter @MalloryBros9 for all updates!

My guest on the show today, our special Fourth of July sesquicentennial episode, is Jacob Siegel. He's a writer and editor at Tablet Magazine, an Iraq and Afghanistan vet, co-host of the Manifesto! podcast, and author of the new book, The Information State, which we don't discuss on the episode.Our topic, instead, is the “The Disappearing American Man,” the first installment of a column that Jacob is now writing for Tablet. To give you a sense of the essay, which is slightly to the left or maybe to the right or just below or above the typical crisis of masculinity polemic, here's a particularly pungent passage from it:What I see in many prominent and representative American men today is a dribbling sludge of bitterness. A peacocking display of impotence, debility, worminess, insincerity, lack of competence, lack of confidence, lack of élan, pettiness, selfishness, scheming, and self-pity. Not all men, as the saying goes, but enough to pass a civilizational tipping point. The young men standing up at town hall meetings are almost pompous in their bitterness. The anonymous posters online have turned cattiness and petty sadism into a group erotic ritual. The politicians are embittered, the podcasters are embittered, even the popular comedians are embittered. Probably the comedians are the most bitter of all.Much of this bitterness seems to stem from an ambient feeling of betrayal. Today's American man knows that he has been wronged. By globalist elites and international pedophile rings or else by his own toxic masculinity. By immigrants or perhaps by his innate racism. By “woke capital”; diversity, equity, and inclusion; greedy billionaires; and unappreciative modern women. And by the Jews, of course. Always by the Jews. So that's just a taste. It's a pretty intense, hard-charging essay. I would say there's more or less two overlapping arguments in the essay. One is about this bitterness as it's expressed in the more venomous, less inhibited regions of the right, which Siegel traces to the effects of the failed wars after 9/11, the thesis being something like: when the globe-bestriding American military colossus can't beat a bunch of goat herders, it powerfully undermines the projective identity that so many men, and particularly men on the right, have had with American military power. Its power is our power, is how they felt, and so then when its power is undermined so thoroughly, it strikes right at the core of people's identity, their sense of themselves as men. And what some people did with that searing sense of impotence was to turn it not just against the left, which is traditional right-wing move, but against the American soldier himself, and then behind him against what the American soldier traditionally has represented, which is American power, American might, American manliness. Attached to that is a historical narrative, a quite conspiratorial one, that the long period that most of us think of as a kind of golden age of American power and manliness, from the end of WW II to the end of the Cold War, was in fact a long, deep con perpetrated by the globalists on the real American men, who were its innocent victims. All that time that we thought we were powerful, by virtue of our affiliation and identification with American power, we were in fact being manipulated and betrayed. (Jacob and I wouldn't say “we,” of course, since as Jews we were perpetrators of the con, not its victims.)So that's argument one, and the other argument, which I think is downstream of that one, is that an effect of all that — the loss of the wars, the cultural and political reaction to it — is that the cultural ideal of the American man has become exhausted. That figure who stood a certain way, held a cigarette a certain way, often looked on the world with a certain cool disdain, has died or at least has gone conspicuously silent. An archetype that was capacious enough over the decades to manifest in figures as diverse as manly Hemingway, the dandy Gatsby, the stoic Marlboro Man, swaggering Muhammad Ali, and the alienated Kurt Cobain seems no longer to be producing new manifestations of itself. The world spirit has abandoned him/us. Then braiding through these two arguments is Jacob's own story of being in the wars. He did 15 months in Iraq, and then after some years in which he rather failed to figure out life as a civilian, he signed up again and went to Afghanistan. And it was in that space, he writes, that he was able to reassemble himself in a way that could eventually go on to do some flourishing in the aftermath. The piece opens with a road trip he takes with a bunch of enlisted guys from his unit, men over whom he had command. They semi-licitly liberated a van from the motor pool, and they went to see families of two soldiers who'd been killed by an IED in their last month over there. He talks about being the only officer in this tight group of enlisted men, some of whom had some real suspicion of him. He writes about his sense of guilt and dislocation during the interregnum between his two stints. He and I talk about that. We go into his theory of how the right talked itself into treating World War II as the original sin of American betrayal, how that recasts the Greatest Generation as a bunch of cucks, how a guy like Tucker Carlson, who was such a cheerleader for the Iraq War, has re-imagined himself into a state of metaphysical victimhood and purity, and how the big story of the betrayal of the American man has a weird double-sidedness to it— the true American man is pure, because he's not responsible for the nation's sins, but he also has no agency. He's a dupe, a cuck.And so on. We get deep in the shit, in other words. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Hope you do too. Peace. This is a public episode.

As we celebrate this historic day, the 250th of birthday of our country, we cannot forget the people that made a name in building the greatest country on earth. The GURU takes time to reflect and remember people from George Washington to George Washington Carver, from Paul Revere to Malcolm X, from Betsy Ross to Angela Davis. Our country isn't perfect, but for this day, let's not focus on the negative but look forward to the promise of the future. The failures of the past can be changed, if we work harder for change. Happy birthday America.
It's a milestone birthday for the U.S. this weekend. And we're marking the 250th by taking a look back at this year's Sounds of America series.Every year, the National Recording Registry at the Library of Congress selects 25 pieces of sound to add to its collection — songs, speeches, and beyond.In the past, we've partnered with the 14th Librarian of Congress, Carla Hayden, who oversaw this project for nine years. Each spring, 1A worked with Hayden and the Library of Congress to bring you a look at why those honorees matter to America.This year, the Library of Congress looks a little different. President Donald Trump fired Hayden in 2025. The White House cited her “pursuit of DEI” as reason for her dismissal.But we continued our annual series this year with a look at the 2026 inductees. And we'll continue to ask you: What are the sounds of America? Highlights have included Martin Luther King Jr.'s “I Have A Dream” speech, Tracy Chapman singing “Fast Car," The Giants' “shot heard round the world” walk-off home run in 1951. And the theme song from Super Mario. You can nominate your favorite piece of sound through the Library of Congress.Now to the class of 2026: First, we sit down with Rachael Stoeltje. She's the head of the National Audio-Visual Conservation Center in Culpeper, Virginia, which houses and preserves the Library of Congress' audio and video artifacts. Then, we get the backstory on "The Devil Went Down to Georgia," by the Charlie Daniels Band. We bop along to "Beauty and the Beat" by The Go-Go's and meet members of the all-women rock band. And close it out with the radio broadcast of "The Fight of the Century" between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier.The Sounds of America series is produced by Jennie Cataldo of Accompany Studios.You can hear all our past Sounds of America interviews with Carla Hayden here.

Berki Fecó New Yorkban: Gleason's Gym, edzőtábor és a világbajnoki álom | MÓKA Podcast ep. 321 Berki Ferenc „Fecó" magyar profi boxoló őszintén mesél arról, milyen érzés New Yorkban, a legendás Gleason's Gymben készülni, hogyan különbözik az amerikai boxkultúra a magyartól, és mit jelent számára a világbajnoki álom Madison Square Gardennel a fejében. Ebben a MÓKA Podcast epizódban szóba kerül Fecó 20–1–1-es profi mérlege, a megélhetési boxolók világa, a box és MMA közötti különbségek, a női ökölvívás robbanásszerű fejlődése, valamint az, hogy miért keresnek még mindig többet a top boxolók, mint az MMA-harcosok. Fecó gyerekkori „égetnivaló" srácból lett fegyelmezett profi bunyós: apja edzőként terelte a sport felé, több mint 100 amatőr meccs után lépett a profik közé, és ma már New Yorkban sparringol olyan teremben, ahol Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson és Jake LaMotta nevei élnek tovább a falakon. Részletesen elmeséli, miben más az amerikai közeg – mennyivel kompetitívebb, milyen apró technikai és lábmunkabeli különbségek teszik „lazábbá", mégis brutálisan hatékonnyá az itteni stílust, és hogyan próbálja ezeket tudatosan beépíteni a saját bunyójába. A beszélgetésben kiemelt téma a pénz: Fecó elmondja, hogy nem minden boxoló milliomos, sőt a legtöbben meccspénzből, szponzorokból és edzések tartásából próbálják összerakni az életet, miközben edzőtáborokra, minőségi kajára, tápkiegészítőkre és hosszú felkészülésekre költenek. Beszél a megélhetési boxolókról, akik kemény meccsekért utaznak pénzért, és arról is, milyen ritka, de inspiráló, amikor valaki ebből a világból világbajnokká tud kitörni – mint Sergio Martínez vagy Arthur Abraham története mutatja. Erős blokk a box vs MMA rész: Fecó technikai szemmel magyarázza, miért tartja a boxot elegánsabb, „szebb" mozgásnak, mit nem lát a laikus földharc közben, és miért gondolja, hogy az MMA-nak idővel a boxhoz hasonló fizetési szintre kell eljutnia. Szóba kerül a UFC fizetési struktúrája, a Bellator és más ligák, a nézettség és hype szerepe, valamint az, hogy a nagy showmanek – mint Conor McGregor vagy Jake Paul – hogyan emelik az egész sportágat. A női boxról szólva Fecó arról beszél, hogy szerinte az elmúlt években a női ökölvívás óriásit fejlődött: már nem „nézhetetlen", hanem nagyon technikás, kemény és bátor női harcosokat látunk, akikre őszintén felnéz. Megemlíti Szabó Franciskát és Sina Bat meccsét, és azt, hogy mennyire lenyűgözi a női ütőerő – még kézfogásból is érzi, hogy itt nem érdemes ujjat húzni. Az interjú mentális oldalát Fecó a súlyhozáson keresztül mutatja meg: szerinte a mérlegelés az egyik legnagyobb ellenfél, a vízvágás és böjt pedig olyan „vadász üzemmódba" teszi a harcost, amelyben ösztönösen muszáj teljesíteni. Ugyanakkor hangsúlyozza, hogy a box intelligens sport: folyamatos problémamegoldás nyomás alatt, gyors döntések egy ellenféllel szemben, aki közben épp le akar ütni. Beszél a vereségek tanulságairól, a pofonok szerepéről az életben, és arról, hogy a világsztárok (Pacquiao, Canelo) karrierje is megmutatja: nem a veretlenség, hanem a pályafutás egészének minősége számít. A végén villámkérdések zárják a beszélgetést: Tyson vagy Ali, Canelo vagy Crawford, kivel bunyózna legszívesebben (Conor Benn), illetve készen állna-e egy azonnali világbajnoki meccsre. Amikor arról kérdezik, mit szeretne, hogy 20 év múlva emlékezzenek róla, a válasz egyszerű, de mindent elmond: „Az, hogy világbajnok lettem."
