We're back after mother nature wouldn't let us tape on Monday. Norlander is still snowed in, but the power is on, the internet is humming, and we're podcasting a day later than usual. Lots to get to in a belated weekend recap PLUS some Big Monday results worth sharing. Houston has lost three in a row, sounds like it could be time to get in on the Cougars. Kansas continues to rack up top-5 wins but are the guys buying what the Jayhawks are selling? North Carolina won a game against a Louisville team that Hartzell is very much out on, which Norlander calls him out on. The guys run through their biggest takeaways from the weekend's games - including Norlander's trips to Indianapolis and Saint Louis - and another round of 'what would you do?' involving an Uber driver and life in the not-so-fast lane. Norlander reads reviews at the end of the show - so keep em coming!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Very special CSN 'After Dark' that was recorded shortly before midnight on Wednesday while Matt Norlander is cooped up in downtown Indianapolis and Hartzell is at home absolutely grinding on some late night hoops. We had - maybe - the GOY in college basketball Wednesday night in the form of an Arkansas and Alabama 2OT thriller, plus a shocking UConn upset at home to Creighton, and oh yeah, Darryn Peterson did the thing again. So much stuff went down on Tuesday the fellas try and touch on all of it, including Georgia's win at Kentucky that came out of nowhere and the sights, sounds, and beatdown that Norlander saw firsthand at Mackey when Michigan put it on the Boilermakers. If you don't know by now, this Saturday is going to be all-timer, so get your chores done early because we got Arizona at Houston and Michigan vs Duke and this is big boy basketball. We're not raising our voice at you, this is on camera and we know you can hear us!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you've ever played video games you know the feeling of powering on Street Fighter or Tekken and getting to choose your fighter before going to battle. It feels like that in the Big 12 and B1G right now. So many options, each with their own strengths (and flaws), but multiple paths towards the same goal. So, in light of the weekend action - which Hartzell and Norlander break down enthusiastically for the first 45 minutes of the show - now might be a good time to lock in and choose your fighter in these two leagues because, buddy, they're absolutely loaded at the top. Special guest Ritchie McKay - the head coach at Liberty - joins the show to talk about what it's like riding a 16-game win streak and looking to stay perfect in CUSA play. Does Norlander even know where the CUSA tournament is? You'll be shocked to know that he does, in fact, not. Coach McKay brings the gas and brags about his veteran team looking to punch back-to-back tickets to the big dance. Monday and Tuesday are jam-packed with some really good basketball, which the fellas touch on before some brief 'Now Spinning' and just like that Norlander is off to Indy for some mid-week hoops and mock selection committee work.

There's one undefeated team left in college basketball and it belongs to Travis Steele, head coach of the Miami (OH) RedHawks, who are 24-0 and looking to keep it rolling heading into March. Norlander and Hartzell open the show talking to Coach Steele about basketball, non-conference scheduling, and cold plunges (which you'll learn is a critical part of Steele's day-to-day). After the deep dive on the 'Hawks, the guys unpack a wild last couple of days on the hardwood where just about everybody not named Michigan or Houston has picked up an L. Hartzell has jokes about the Big 12's new LED glass court, and questions the 'Holy Hoops' story that Norlander broke earlier in the week about teams traveling to Rome to potentially play basketball in front of the Pope next November. Weekend preview, Olympics banter, and 'Now Spinning' wrap the show and folks, that's the show.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Goodness that was a sports weekend, wasn't it kids? Super Bowl was underwhelming but the college basketball delivered in a big way, starting on Friday night in the Big East and rolling all the way into the wee hours of Sunday morning. Right off the jump Hartzell & Norlander bring in Joe Ovies from OG Triangle Media to unpack what we all saw in Chapel Hill on Saturday; the buzzer-beater, the court-storming, and the fallout from yet another Duke/UNC classic. It always delivers, folks! What does Joe think about the Duke angle from another rare loss that happened the same way they seemingly all do, plus where the 'Heels can go from here, building off a big rivalry win. Hartzell is convinced the best game of the weekend was actually in the Big Ten between Michigan State and Illinois, plus other observations from an A+ weekend on the hardwood. And yes, there in Lindsey Vonn discussion and Bad Bunny reaction in 'Now Spinning' which is, as always, worth waiting for. Great show, no notes.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hartzell is on his second straight week of being at home with the kids because of all the snow in North Carolina, so him and Norlander fire up some early morning CSN to recap the weekend, starting with the Sunday results of Florida over Alabama and Illinois doing it again on the road against a top-5 team. The guys discuss the Darryn Peterson story from the weekend, because no one is doubting the guy is elite, but is he really hurt or just cosplaying as hurt? The KU faithful are starting to get concerned and so, too, is Hartzell. How long can Bill Self and Co keep this going when their star simply isn't playing for the entire second half? Special guest Brian Boesch, who is the radio play-by-play voice of the Wolverines, joins the show to talk Michigan at Michigan State from last Friday and what the B1G race looks like down the road when Michigan visits the Illini in a few weeks. GRAMMY's recap to end the show for 'Now Spinning' because Hartzell was not impressed and thinks CBS mailed it in for their final show.

The most popular 'Now Spinning' segment we do every year returns for the Grammy's this weekend; Norlander attempts to 'spot the fake' in the nominees this year - and Hartzell has the help of AI, unlike in season's past - so you have that to look forward to at the end of the show. The hoops portion of today's program is loaded as we recap boots-on-the-ground takeaways from Norlander's trips to Provo & Nashville earlier this week. Is Nebraska better than we all thought even though they lost at Michigan? What about the rest of the B1G including a Purdue team that's suddenly dropped 3 in a row? Hartzell asks the tough questions about Saint Louis not getting enough love from Norlander and the rest of the national media, and why we need to embrace some A-10 basketball this Friday night! Full weekend preview is in the offing, including the Blitz making it's debut on the hardwood this season - starting at 1 PM ET on Saturday we'll bounce around with live whiparound coverage of all these games, available exclusively on the Varsity Network app & YouTube.

Props to the mighty Miami U RedHawks who are 20-0 on the season and we got Matt Norlander dropping bars on today's show about just how big of a deal that actually is. The list of recent mid-majors to get to that mark are few and far between, and Norlander talks about why we all need to be locked in on what's going down in the MAC. What about the other two undefeated teams in D1? Let's bring in Evan Miyakawa to brag about his website and break down what the analytics say about the teams at the top of his rankings. How many teams does Evan have as national championship contenders - and why that answer might surprise you. Hartzell and Norlander wrap the show with some brief weekend lookahead to the top games on deck, plus why is Norlander wearing a Dispatch show that's almost 15 years old?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Special MLK Day edition of CSN recapping the basketball weekend as only we can. Matt Norlander lets it out on his Bears dropping an OT thriller on Sunday night (it's not your fault) and then the hoops talk picks up. What a weekend in the SEC with Florida winning at Vanderbilt and Kentucky storming back - again - to beat Tennessee on Rocky Top. Did the 'Cats save their season with a pair of come--from-behind wins last week? And is Florida now the team to beat in the league? Any how about Norlander not even acknowledging Hartzell's text on Saturday afternoon. Rude. From the mighty SEC to the Big 12, B1G, ACC, and much more...the guys touch on everything you probably missed from the weekend because you were locked in on NFL playoffs and God knows what else. Lock in with the fellas because college football season is over, folks. Indiana is about to B2A in South Florida tonight, time to get your mind right on the college hoops and we got you covered here on CSNSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There's just one college football game left on the calendar and Hartzell is very confident how that one is going to play out next week. Time to turn the page and start talking some college hoops with our guy Matt Norlander from CBS Sports and the Eye on College Basketball podcast. We're two or three weeks into the conference campaign and Norlander is of the belief this is one of the best college basketball seasons we've had in recent memory? Of course we need to know what that is. The depth at the top of the sport, for one, but also the brands of these programs who are at the top of the rankings. Five undefeateds remain, including a couple of surprises (here's looking at you, Nebraska & Vanderbilt), but there's plenty of blue bloods lurking with just one or two losses. Throw in the number of talented freshmen who are balling every night (except for Darryn Peterson whose legs hurt, allegedly), and you've got one of the deeper NBA Draft classes as well. Who's the best conference in America? Who are some of the most disappointing teams - and leagues - at this point in the season? And how many games has Hartzell *actually* watched this year? Lots to get to, first college basketball show of the season, we're so back folks!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This was undeniably a massive 12-month run for college basketball: for the good, bad and otherwise. How do you whittle everything from almost 365 days down to a top 10 list? Easy: we didn't! Norlander and Parrish each built their own top 10s without the other knowing, and that adds up to more than 10 stories.

What's your favorite pod-related memory from the last 363 days? There's tons to get to!

It's a full mailbag episode as we answer listener questions from across the country — mixing college basketball history, current storylines, and a little chaos along the way. We dive into coaching “almost took the job” stories, the future of early-season conference events, the most intriguing teams right now, and how many programs can actually win the national championship. Plus: Michigan State's contender case, ACC tourney math, blue blood debates (hello, Florida), and Virginia's Ryan Odom era. There's also plenty of fun: hypothetical matchups, travel routines, airport rankings, Memphis tips for an 8-year-old, linguistic debates we probably shouldn't have, and more. We close with the Final Four and 1, previewing Winthrop–Texas Tech, UL-Monroe–Kansas State, Saint Mary's–LMU, Gonzaga–Pepperdine, and a sneaky San Francisco–Seattle game. Mailbag chaos, college hoops insight, and classic GP & Norlander — all in one episode.

Kate didn't plan to measure their burnout by the number of bags of pink-and-purple Mother's animal cookies consumed at their desk…but here we are. Kim's clue was a rotating cycle of stomach aches and "maybe these aren't panic attacks but the room is definitely spinning." And our guest, Norlander Wilson, talks about showing up to work without showering or brushing her teeth for days because she literally couldn't. This one is about burnout at work — not the "I need a weekend off" kind, but the kind that rewires your nervous system and convinces you you're the problem. About our guest: Norlander Wilson is an experimental psychologist and an orbit disruptor by calling. She is the founder and CEO of Becoma, an operational strategy firm that helps leaders, creatives, and organizations move from survival mode into clearer systems and healthier energy. Through her work, Norlander blends psychology, strategy, and system design to challenge the patterns that keep people stuck and to create ways of working that don't require self-sacrifice. She's also the host of the podcast "She Don't Work Like That, No More," where she unpacks wounded leadership patterns and reimagines what it means to build, lead, and live without breaking yourself in the process. The theme today: burnout at work, and how project managers — the people everyone counts on — get trapped in it. Norlander doesn't sugarcoat it: "Burnout is a collective conversation, especially in an organization." She calls out how burnout starts at the top. If leadership pushes 100 hours, teams assume they should push 150. If leaders are exhausted, their teams are exhausted. Burnout isn't a personal failing; it's a system failure — and PMs often absorb the blast radius. Kate opens up about their 2024 breakdown: crying daily, losing appetite except for cookies, medical leave, and the creeping belief that if they just tried harder, they could fix everything. Kim shares his own burnout and the helpless feeling of watching teammates slide into it — seeing that "day-five-I-haven't-showered look" on Zoom and wanting to save them. And then there's the half-million-dollar moment. Kate negotiated nearly $500,000/year in compensation and turned it down because walking into the building made them feel sick. Not metaphorically — physically. "I'm not getting on that wheel unless I want to." Norlander validates it: "If it's profound burnout and everything triggers you at that job, yes, it's time to leave." She gives language PMs desperately need: Capacity check-ins, not productivity interrogations Systems that hold boundaries so you don't have to Stop parenting grown adults at work — "You are not an emotional container." Let people fail so they learn the consequence, not you Kim connects it to the "mouse on the wheel" experiment — the difference between choosing to run and being forced to run. The stress chemicals — literally — are not the same. Norlander's tools for burnout prevention and burnout recovery: Audit your systems quarterly Build boundaries into SOPs Protect scheduled joy like you protect deadlines Delegate to the system, not your nervous system Kate shares how protecting Tuesday riding lessons became non-negotiable. Not because horseback riding is magic (although…it kind of is), but because no one else will protect your time but you. Norlander's toast at the end is the line we're all putting on sticky notes: "When you do find your boundary… don't compromise it for anyone." If burnout at work is starting to feel familiar — if you're living on cookies, caffeine, and dread — pull up a chair. You're not lazy. You're not failing. The system is failing you. And if you're tired of carrying the emotional labor for your entire project team, come get some backup and community. Join us at: https://pmhappyhour.com/membership © Project Management Happy Hour

For the last two seasons, the Kansas Jayhawks have been just ... there. Not a team vying for a national championship, not even one of the 15 best teams in the sport. Just another team that drifted into the background — and was a letdown. For most schools, this would be understandable. Not in Lawrence. Enter Darryn Peterson and a crew of freshmen and transfer portal talent to revive the standard at Phog Allen. How will the Jayhawks fare this season? Norlander brings on C.J. Moore of The Athletic to get a deeper look at KU, including the latest on Bill Self's health. 02:52 - Status update on Bill Self 10:16 - Kansas won't start out 2025-2026 as a top-10 team (and that's a good thing) 16:48 - Who's Gone, Who's Back, and Who's New For KU 36:21 - Regular Season Win Predictions! 44:54 - Will the Big 12 be better, worse, or the same this season?

Norlander is joined on this episode by Mark Ennis, a local radio host in Louisville who knows the program inside and out. Mikel Brown Jr. is the guy who's got Cards fans amped, but there's enough here to believe U of L could be a top-10 team. 00:45 - Hi-hellos 05:21 - Kelsey in Year 1 13:00 - Who's Gone, Who's Back, Who's New for the Cards 20:00 - Mikel Brown Jr.'s big offseason 30:49 - Schedule rundown and predictions on win total

This is the second of five shows in our special offseason series on the 25 biggest men's basketball stories of the past 25 years. Norlander picks the stories for the list, Parrish reacts to the order and the guys chop it up from there. Producer Nata is adding some sound on this ep to transport you back to some of these stories and give them an added boost of nostalgia. Today's pod touches on one of the bigger scandals in college sports history, an unlikely star in the form of a nonagenarian nun, the two seasons that came thisclose to matching Indiana's undefeated run in 1976 — and more.
