This week we had the pleasure of welcoming one of our favorite people, and greatest friends, the one and only Nicole Carroll on the FitFilliate Podcast. Nicole is many things, not the least of which the personality she is in the CrossFit ecosystem as the Director of Brand. She is equally intriguing, if not more so as the human she is, and we are happy we got a chance to show a glimpse of the girl behind the brand. If you know Nicole she can be fierce in her pursuit and defense of what is just and right, and that especially includes the defense of the CrossFit brand. On this episode Nicole is in living color, you will want to take a listen. Some of you may know her for the Running + Pull-up symphony that carries her namesake, or her leadership of the sea of red-shirts, others might know her for her work in support of the brand we all love, but on this episode we take a behind the curtain look into the art inspired, pottery loving reading fanatic Nicole truly is. She is one of my favorite people in the world for a reason, we hope we do her depth of character justice on this episode. There is no one I can think better to embolden this brand, and I think youll all agree after you hear this episode. Its time we all double down and tell the world what we know to be so valuable about CrossFit. Why We're Different https://fit-filliate.as.me/DCPRequest Got a great story to tell about your affiliate?

“Being part of Seminar Staff is the hardest I've ever worked to get a job and the hardest I've ever worked to keep a job. It matters because of the respect I have not only for CrossFit and its methodology but the people I get to work with. We raise each other up and we expect a lot from each other. It's a constant state of sharpening the sword.”CrossFit Athlete Communications Manager Becky Harsh joins the show to explain her role, detail her path to becoming a part of the community and company, and express her love for all parts of the sport.Harsh completed her first CrossFit workout in 2006 at the suggestion of a trainer who worked for her when she was a personal-trainer manager at a gym. The unexpected experience of feeling “unfit” left the former high-level swimmer wanting to learn more.Eventually, Harsh found CrossFit.com, took the Level 1 Certificate Course in 2007, and went on to take the Level 2 the following year. After years of volunteering as a judge at CrossFit events, Harsh was granted an internship to become part of the Seminar Staff, and just last year, she became a liaison between competitive athletes and CrossFit as the Athlete Communications Manager.In today's episode, hear from Harsh as she describes the many hats she wears in her current role to help strengthen the communication and relationship between CrossFit and athletes.Also learn more about her CrossFit beginnings, her experience being coached by well-known CrossFit names like Greg Glassman and Nicole Carroll at her Level 1 and 2 courses, and her driving force for becoming more involved in the CrossFit space.In addition to being CrossFit's Athlete Communications Manager, Harsh is also a wife, mother of two boys, a CrossFit Level 4 Coach, and a CrossFit Seminar Flowmaster.

“My first Fran time was just over 20 minutes. It's better now, but strict L-sit pull-ups, probably three thrusters at a time … but I just kept doing (CrossFit) because I realized, hey, whatever I've been doing wasn't helping me up until this point, so I need to do more of this stuff.”Long-time member of the CrossFit staff Dave Eubanks joins the podcast to share his story of finding CrossFit, working his way up to Senior Manager of Competition, and balancing the criticism that comes with leading scoring.Eubanks — who was a personal trainer at the time — first found CrossFit in 2007 through a short blurb in a magazine he picked up while waiting for his grandmother to get her bloodwork done. He spent the weekend reading the CrossFit Journal and was hooked.Eubanks took his Level 1, opened an affiliate, and then pursued his Level 2, which led to a position on the Seminar Staff. After success in other roles within the space, he was asked to head Scoring for the CrossFit Games.In addition to leading the competition team, managing video submissions, and reviewing scores during the Games season, Eubanks has also been a prominent figure in creating the new Worldwide Ranking System.Listen in as Eubanks reminisces about his experience training CrossFit for the first time, shares stories from his Level 1 and Level 2 courses, being taught by well-known names like Nicole Carroll and Todd Widman, and details his CrossFit career.Learn how CrossFit and the competition team are working toward growing and progressing the sport, and providing athletes and the community with a great experience through all stages of competition.

It has only been a few years since the February 2018 announcement that Nicole Carroll was to succeed Joanne Lipman as editor-in-chief of USA Today. She was by no means an outsider to the operation, being part of their Network of more than 200 local digital properties in 45 states. As an editor and vice president of news at The Arizona Republic, Carroll led a team that won a Pulitzer Prize in Explanatory Reporting. Today, Carroll not only manages this Gannett flagship, but she is also one of the 19 members of the Pulitzer Board, comprising leading journalists, news executives and academics who preside over the judging process. In this 157th episode of “E&P Reports,” E&P Publisher Mike Blinder speaks with Nicole Carroll, president of news and editor-in-chief of USA TODAY, about the past 40 years for this iconic news media brand and its evolution to a multi-platform national information outlet. Their conversation occurred in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Ian, a devastating storm for Florida, where Gannett operates 18 daily operations, including in Ft. Myers and Naples. Carroll reported to Blinder that at least three of their journalists' homes were no longer habitable. She marveled at the tenacity and resilience of their journalists. “Daylight came, and they could not wait to get back out there, helping their community, and that has been their focus,” Carroll told Blinder. Having Gannett's newsrooms across the country and abroad connected through digital communications enables journalists to share information and build on stories. Journalists chat about important public interest topics — in this case, a catastrophic weather event. Through chat conversations, they began planning their approach to coverage approach when the storm was still a far-off tropical depression. Carroll and Blinder also spoke about the USA TODAY's 40th Anniversary and the brand's evolution. Earlier in her career, she was a Gannett reporter “on loan” — or “loaners” — to USA TODAY. “You would work three- or six-month shifts, and then you'd go back to your home paper,” she explained to Blinder. Content that is factual, informative, and accessible is foundational to the brand. “We always say that we're expert, not elitist,” she said. That resonates with readers. USA TODAY continues to have strong single-copy and home-delivery figures, she suggested, plus distribution at partner hotels. This brilliant marketing strategy introduced an untold number of travelers to USA TODAY's colorful front page, predictably placed just outside their hotel room door each morning. The website attracts an impressive audience, as well, including a segment that represents younger news consumers. “We have, on average, 100 million unique visitors every month to USA TODAY,” Carroll reported. “We are leaning into our heritage of innovation. We were innovative 40 years ago. We still are today. So, just this morning, we created out of Hurricane Ian a text chat where people can sign up for texts about the hurricane. Some of them are getting cell service, but they're not getting internet, or they don't have power, and we're giving them constant updates via text to the readers. And we were up to more than 5,000 people in about 24 hours who've signed up for that. So, that's one small daily innovation we're doing to connect readers to the news they need when they need it.” Having seen USA Today mature over decades, Carroll credits the editorial coverage for its longevity and popularity.  “Our editors were just in tune with what America was talking about,” she reflected.

Dr. Tracey Wilkinson describes a "chilling effect" in the medical field as abortion bans take effect. Plus, Nicole Carroll describes how the Columbus Dispatch confirmed a child rape allegation that some conservative media outlets disbelieved; Natasha Alford and Bill Carter analyze the partisan media battles over abortion; Shimon Prokupecz discusses the need for transparency in Uvalde; Brian Stelter says polls show many Americans want generational and structural changes to politics; and Matthew Ball previews his new book "The Metaverse."

Vice President Kamala Harris is the first of USA TODAY’s Women of the Year. Vice President Harris recently sat down with USA TODAY editor-in-chief Nicole Carroll and national columnist Suzette Hackney to discuss how American women have been overcoming obstacles caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.Women, and especially women of color, have been disproportionately affected by the economic recession. Layoffs have disproportionately impacted women and hundreds of thousands of women have left the workforce in the past year in order to take care of children and family amid a shortage of childcare options exacerbated by pandemic lockdowns.In their in-depth interview, Vice President Harris, Nicole Carroll, and Suzette Hackney talked about everything from paid leave, to access to childcare, to the minimum wage, and the pay gap between men and women — because supporting women means supporting all the work they do.Later this year, Suzette Hackney will profile 10 more Women of the Year for USA TODAY.

Tom Brose took a trip to Santa Cruz in 2005 to check out something called CrossFit. He trained alongside some of the earliest CrossFit legends, and learned directly from CrossFit founder, Greg Glassman. The intensity stunned him and the insights transformed his view of fitness. But what impressed him the most was the community. Tom has kept this in mind running his affiliate, and the people around him gush about what an amazing community of coaches and members he has built. We get to hear how Tom discovered CrossFit, what the early days were like, and how CrossFit DC has evolved over the years.

“The Wall: Unknown stories. Unintended consequences.” is a Pulitzer Prize winning multimedia series from USA Today Network and Gannett that delves into life along the southern border of the United States – the same border where President Donald Trump proposes to build his wall. “The explanatory report, led by then Arizona Republic’s vice president of news and editor Nicole Carroll, recently named editor in chief of USA TODAY, provides an in-depth look at the border through immersive technology, including aerial and 360-degree video, virtual reality, bots, drones, documentaries, photos, podcasts, and LiDAR data,” says USA Today promotional material. When The Wall received the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Reporting, the Pulitzer Committee said it won “for vivid and timely reporting that masterfully combined text, video, podcasts and virtual reality to examine, from multiple perspectives, the difficulties and unintended consequences of fulfilling President Trump's pledge to construct a wall along the U.S. border with Mexico.” Instrumental in the success of this project is Annette Meade, Senior Project Manager – Storytelling Studio USA TODAY Network and Innovation Director at Gannett Innovation Lab. The USA Today Network explains Meade’s role as “…to bridge the space between digital development and content creation to help produce top-level and engaging story experiences.” Meade recently talked with the Spectrum Podcast and explained how this major journalistic project was conceived and brought into reality. She also touts the virtues of multimedia and immersive storytelling as a way of putting the audience in the middle of the story being covered instead of being a passive reader or watcher on the periphery. She believes the interactive and immersive storytelling are the wave of the future. No longer can major stories be told in just one manner but instead multiple media formats and innovations are required.
