Steve Gilbert is an 80-year-old, two-time Boston Marathon finisher and one of the most inspiring people I've ever had the pleasure of sitting down with. Steve was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease in 2004 — the same year he was forced into early retirement and diagnosed with prostate cancer.

What do we want from sports? The very best athletes competing as hard as they know how, putting all their effort and training and natural ability to the test against their opponents. But this time of year, that's not the product the NBA is putting on the court. Instead, teams at the bottom of the league are competing … to lose, because it could help them get a top pick in next year's draft. It's called tanking — it's bad for fans, and it's bad for the league.Tanking has gotten especially egregious this year. Even NBA Adam Silver has called out teams for tanking. He recently announced that league bigwigs are considering “every possible remedy” to “align incentives.”Today on the show — Planet Money fixes the NBA's tanking problem by … fixing the NBA draft. We get solutions from Hockey Hall of Famer Jayna Hefford, World Cup Champion Sam Mewis, and long-time NBA analyst Zach Lowe.

In my first ever interview-style solocast, my dear brother Ty Ward architects the flow beautifully to pull through the threads of my last 3 years in “the tunnel”. During this period of time, I was trudging through my dark night of the soul. Our family unit was working through challenges, finances were feeling rockier than I'm comfortable with, and my resistance to being with stillness and uncertainty became so loud, yet I powered through — at the expense of my health and relationships — like I have been “comfortably” doing for most of my life.Now, on the other side of my tunnel phase, I felt the call to share my experience from this season and what it felt like within my relationship to self and those closest to me, the ways I tried so hard to escape it all, and what ultimately allowed for me to sink into the messages that I was meant to tune into.In this solocast, I share...➝ My addiction to being busy, escaping stillness.➝ Family and financial challenges / reorientation.➝ What helped to create awareness around my avoidant patterns.➝ The tools and habits that moved me through my tunnel period.➝ Unblocking a new level of intimacy within my marriage.REFERENCEDThe Amazing Development of Men by Alison Armstrong: https://amzn.to/3TOTU7SAdyashanti: https://adyashanti.opengatesangha.orgBeck Change Cycle: https://marthabeck.com/change/Boyd Varty: https://boydvarty.comSalim Najjar: https://www.instagram.com/thathrvguy/Dan Martell on TGU: https://bit.ly/tguapplemartellCONNECT WITH CALInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cal.callahan/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thegreatunlearnYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/thegreatunlearn/Website: https://www.thegreatunlearn.comSubscribe to the newsletter: https://www.thegreatunlearn.com/newsletterThis show is produced by Soulfire Productions

For men, many of us were raised with the rule “if we're struggling, don't talk about it”. This is what had Connor Beaton hitting rock bottom and eventually, opening his eyes and heart to the importance of having the support to express his emotions. Harboring such subtle and heavy emotions, with no outlet or invitation to express them healthily, led Connor to expressing shame in the forms of substance abuse, addictions, dysfunctional relationship dynamics and living out of his car.Connor dives into his story and how he healed to where he is now — a supportive and committed father, husband and men's training facilitator. He knew that if his life were to shift the first thing that needed to be looked at was himself.Connor and I dive into…How he shifted from addictions, troubled relationships, damaging self-talkHealthy ways to pivotally express anger and how this can benefit everyone involvedHow putting people on pedestals doesn't allow for a genuine or sustainable connectionTransforming the “suppression equals strength” mentalityThe importance of modeling a healed masculine to our childrenConnect with ConnorWebsite: connorbeaton.comInstagram: instagram.com/mantalksMen's Work: A Practical Guide to Face Your Darkness, End Self-Sabotage, and Find Freedom: mantalks.com/mens-work-bookManTalks podcast: mantalks.com/podcastTrainings for Men: mantalks.com/trainingConnect with CalShop TGU Gear: thegreatunlearn.com/shoptguInstagram: instagram.com/cal.callahanYouTube: youtube.com/c/thegreatunlearnFacebook: facebook.com/thegreatunlearnWebsite: thegreatunlearn.comSubscribe to the newsletter: thegreatunlearn.com/newsletterThis show is produced by Soulfire Productions
