Episode No. 8 of the Irish Illustrated Interviews podcast series features linebacker Jaylon Smith, a high school and collegiate Butkus Award winner, a two-time All-American at Notre Dame, and a 10-year NFL veteran. He played for the Fighting Irish from 2013 to 2015, leading Notre Dame in tackles and havoc plays in his final season as a junior, a campaign that ended with a trip to the Fiesta Bowl against Ohio State. Unfortunately, in the loss to the Buckeyes, Smith also suffered a devastating injury, tearing his ACL and LCL and enduring significant nerve damage. As a result, he fell from a projected top-five pick to an early second-round selection, with several teams unsure if he'd be able to play football again. Nevertheless, Smith preserved. After sitting out his rookie year with the Dallas Cowboys, he returned to the gridiron a season later and eventually became a Pro Bowler in the midst of a decade-long NFL career. Our conversation spans his entire playing career. Plus, we dive into how he overcame his injury and how he's currently investing in the South Bend community by opening JINYA Ramen Bar on Eddy Street, directly across from campus.

Overpowering Emotions Podcast: Helping Children and Teens Manage Big Feels
What does mental wellness really mean, and how do we teach it to kids and teens when the adults around them are stretched thin? In this episode, Dr. Caroline sits down with licensed clinical social worker MJ Murray Vachon, who brings nearly 40 years of experience working with adolescents, families, and midlife adults.MJ shares the two mental wellness definitions that guide her work, how Dr. Dan Siegel's “river of calm” helps us understand chaos and rigidity, and why adults' emotions are contagious for kids. You'll hear stories from classrooms, families, and even Notre Dame athletes that highlight the everyday ways mental health is shaped by modeling, connection, and self-regulation.Listeners will walk away with practical tools like the FACES model, NESTS for self-care, and playful strategies that keep mental wellness accessible for kids and adults alike. This conversation is a reminder that children can't be healthier than the adults raising or teaching them—and small steps in our own wellness ripple out to every child we support.Homework IdeasCheck your own state firstEach day, pause and ask: Am I calm, chaotic, or rigid?Use a grounding practice (deep breaths, stretch, short walk) before engaging with kids.Create a “Glimmer List”Write 5 small, free things that bring you joy (music, a walk, a funny show).Do one daily and encourage your child to make their own list.Practice NESTS Self-CareNutrition: regular balanced meals.Exercise: daily movement.Sleep: aim for consistent bedtimes.Technology: set limits that support rest and focus.Stress skills: model a simple coping strategy (breathwork, journaling, quiet time).Model Validation + BoundariesAcknowledge feelings: “I hear you. This is hard.”Don't over-explain—hold space, then guide with calm presence.About MJWith more than 50,000 hours of clinical sessions, I've spent nearly four decades helping people navigate anxiety, stress, and life transitions with practical, science-backed skills. I'm the creator of Inner Challenge, a mental wellness program launched in 1993 and taught for 21 years in junior highs and even with Notre Dame Football, equipping teens and athletes with coping strategies to boost resilience. As host of Creating Midlife Calm, chosen by Maria Shriver as her “Listen of the Week,” I weave stories and evidence-based tools into actionable practices listeners can use right away. My work always comes back to this: real-life coping skills that are simple, doable, and effective. I started the podcast Creating Midlife Calm because I know the parents of teens are the key to helping them develop the mental wellness that will carry them through adolescence and into adulthood.Get in touchInstagram: @vachonmjmurrayFacebook: MJ Murray Vachon LCSWWebsite: mjmurrayvachon.comEnjoying the show?

Bill opened the show by stating that the Kansas City Chiefs are officially back and they are the team to beat in the NFL. Bill then criticized Tua Tagovailoa's leadership after the latest Dolphins blowout loss and credited the Colts for getting off to a 6-1 start. 5 Things You Need To Know From College Football: Week 8 closed out the first hour as Bill reacted to Florida firing Billy Napier, Vanderbilt ranking in the top 10 for the first time since 1947 and a few teams making statements over the weekend. Hour two opened with Bill chatting with Ari Meirov of The 33rd Team about if the Colts are legit, the Giants defensive collapse and if Tua can resurrect his career. Buy or Sell was next as Bill answered if Florida is the best college football head coach opening, if the Jaguars are still a playoff contender and if the Blue Jays will win Game 7 of the ALCS. The show ended with Bill explaining why he doesn't believe Tua will be able to turn his career around.

Over his illustrious career, he's worked for the Dallas Morning News, Newsday, Sports Illustrated and ESPN and others. Maisel is also the author of "American Coach: The Triumph and Tragedy of Notre Dame Legend Frank Leahy," which was released on Sept. 16.The book explores the often forgotten legacy of Leahy, who led the Fighting Irish to six undefeated seasons and four national championships in an 11-season span.Still, he lacks the recognition of the Notre Dame championship-winning coaches who came before and after him, like Knute Rockne and Ara Parseghian.The conversation spent a great deal of our time exploring Leahy's life and career. The podcast also delves into what it took to conduct research for the book, the access Notre Dame provided, and how that process has changed his perception of Notre Dame.
