    The Olympics are supposed to represent something bigger than politics. Athletes from around the world gather in one place, nations compete peacefully, and the entire planet watches. But what happens when the world's greatest sporting spectacle becomes the target of an extraordinary act of terror? In Joe Battaglia's new novel, Beneath the Rings, the Doha 2040 Summer Olympics begin with dreams of gold medals and global unity—and quickly descend into an international nightmare. Twelve Israeli and Lebanese athletes disappear. A shadowy organization called The Obsidian Hand claims responsibility. And then comes the impossible demand: a $500 billion ransom. At the center of the story is veteran journalist Nova Mendelsohn, who finds herself following an ancient Arabic note and an enigmatic local merchant into a conspiracy that stretches from the glittering Olympic Village into the darkest corners of Doha and ultimately into the desert. What begins as a kidnapping becomes something much bigger: a centuries-old grievance threatening to explode into a modern catastrophe. Today, Joe Battaglia joins us to talk about Beneath the Rings, the challenges of writing geopolitical thrillers, the intersection of journalism and fiction, and why the most compelling thrillers often begin with one question.

    What drives someone to pursue not just one extraordinary path, but two? Olympic gold medalist and physician Imogen Grant has devoted herself to two radically different disciplines, medicine and rowing, and somehow managed to reach the pinnacle of both. But listening to her speak about the human body, "the perfect stroke," and what draws her so deeply into each, and the divide between them starts to disappear. She brings a rare depth and poetry to the things she does, with an endlessly curious, deeply disciplined nature and a genuine fascination with discovery. She also gets candid about nutrition, injury, and what it takes to prepare for LA28, offering a glimpse of the life behind the medals and the making of someone who has turned living into an art form. What we discuss: How she brings both a creative and scientific mind to medicine and rowing and manages the demands of doing both. Her experience with the IOC and Olympic facilities working to accommodate her dietary needs. Her thoughts on the LA 2028 Olympics, where she is in her preparations, and the mindset that is guiding her. Her thoughts on peptides and what actually matters most when it comes to supporting your health. How she handles injury, including a rib stress fracture caused by rowing and how she knew when her body was ready to return to the sport. The books she's currently enjoying and how reading fits into her life alongside training. Her personal mantra.  Resources:  https://www.instagram.com/imogendaisyg/?hl=en https://www.tiktok.com/@imogendaisyg 1 Million Tables Click the link below to learn about the FISCAL Act (S. 222) https://switch4good.org/fiscal-act/ Share the website and get your resources here https://kidsandmilk.org/ Dairy-Free Swaps Guide: Easy Anti-Inflammatory Meals, Recipes, and Tips https://switch4good.org/dairy-free-swaps-guide SUPPORT SWITCH4GOOD https://switch4good.org/support-us/ ★☆★ JOIN OUR PRIVATE FACEBOOK GROUP ★☆★  https://www.facebook.com/groups/podcastchat ★☆★ SWITCH4GOOD WEBSITE ★☆★ https://switch4good.org/ ★☆★ ONLINE STORE ★☆★ https://shop.switch4good.org/shop/ ★☆★ FOLLOW US ON INSTAGRAM ★☆★ https://www.instagram.com/Switch4Good/ ★☆★ LIKE US ON FACEBOOK ★☆★ https://www.facebook.com/Switch4Good/ ★☆★ SUBSTACK ★☆★ https://dotsiebausch.substack.com/ ★☆★ AMAZON STORE ★☆★ https://www.amazon.com/shop/switch4good

    A Feet First Dive Into Marginal Gains with Mik.Fit & Jay Vine

    Life in the Peloton is proudly brought to you by MAAP Aero socks, waxed chains, ceramic bearings, and more are all classic marginal gains that cyclists love to froth over. But they might just be overlooking one of the most important pieces of the puzzle: feet.  I know, footbeds aren't exactly the sexiest upgrade to make to your set-up, but getting them right could actually unlock even more power, reduce injury, and just boost your overall enjoyment on the bike. That's where this week's guest comes in.  Mick Habgood, perhaps better known as Mik.Fit, has been producing cycling orthotics and shoes for pro cyclists since 2013, working closely with EF Pro Cycling, British Cycling, and heaps more. In fact, he reckons close to 150 pros are using his insoles - from Olympic gold medalists to grand tour stage winners.  Chatting to Mick and hearing just how important your feet are in the quest for comfort and power was fascinating, and I even got to have a go myself. I got on a video consultation with Mick so he could analyse my feet and sort out some insoles for me to see if he could find my old, retired body a few watts. I tested them and, well, you'll have to listen to hear just how much power I gained.  After chatting to Mick, I wanted to speak to a rider who is one of the most meticulous guys in the bunch when it comes to marginal gains: Jay Vine. Jay truly leaves no stone unturned - and it all starts with his feet. It was great hearing directly from inside the pelo how important the small details are at the top level, how team sponsors deal with athletes looking for gains elsewhere, and how the feet really are the foundation of a pro rider's performance.  Guys, I won't lie, this is one for the tech nerds out there. If you care about saving watts, there's some amazing insight in this episode from some of the best in the business. If you want to check out the new Varus insoles I tested, you can find more information here: vip.mik.fit Stretch out your arches, limber up your metatarsals, and jump feet first into this marginal gains special episode.  Cheers, Mitch   This episode is brought to you by Saily.  Get an exclusive 15% discount on Saily data plans!

    119: Why Good Leadership Advice Drifts to Bad Leadership Behavior

    In this episode, I explore a fascinating idea about near and far enemies and how it links to leadership and the tendency for even the best leadership tips, tools and advice to accidentally get used in the wrong way. This episode dives deep into the deeper parts of ditching the drama that leaders may feel they are coaching well on moving people past the key sources of drama - lack of accountability, ego-based behaviors such as venting, resisting change and lack of alignment to decisions - but missing massive opportunities because they are labeling too soon behaviors from their team as simply "sources of drama". Understanding the near enemy or the patterns that look like drama, but may actually be real nuanced concerns coming from your team will allow you to take your leadership to the next level and continue to modernize how you lead. Episode Highlights:  00:01:16 – Setting up the topic: why good leadership advice can accidentally create bad leadership 00:01:33 – Introducing the Buddhist concept of "near and far enemies" 00:02:41 – Client call story: bringing up "structure" with a fast-scaling, innovation-driven team 00:04:22 – Near enemy example #1: empathy vs. sympathy 00:05:42 – Near enemy example #2: discipline vs. rigidity 00:06:56 – The Olympic athlete "no noise after 8pm" story 00:08:06 – Back to the client: renaming "structure" to get buy-in 00:08:58 – Connecting the pattern to Reality Based Leadership's four sources of drama 00:10:04 – Near enemy example #3: shutting down venting vs. shutting down real concerns 00:11:47 – Near enemy example #4: wholehearted buy-in vs. conditional buy-in 00:13:04 – Near enemy example #5: drama-free culture vs. drama-avoidant culture 00:14:16 – Near enemy example #6: accountability vs. overfunctioning/burnout 00:15:32 – How We Could book plug and Mel Robbins endorsement 00:17:30 – Real session story: a team member's "conditional buy-in" moment and the negative brainstorming tool 00:22:58 – Closing reflection: spotting your own near enemies over the next two weeks

    Protecting the Executive Means Protecting Everyone They Trust | A Full Sponsor Brand Briefing at Black Hat USA 2026 with Dr. Chris Pierson, Founder and CEO at BlackCloak | Hosted by Marco Ciappelli

    On the show floor at Black Hat USA 2026, Marco Ciappelli connected with Dr. Chris Pierson, Founder and CEO at BlackCloak, about a change in where the company draws the line around who gets protected. BlackCloak launched Impersonation Protection several months ago for the C-suite and their families. Clients came back asking for more reach. Why does deepfake risk extend past the executive? Because the people surrounding an executive hold the access attackers want. Pierson lists the trusts and estates attorney, the private wealth manager, the lawyer, the spiritual advisor, the dog walker. Each one is a plausible caller with a legitimate reason to reach out about money, schedules, property, or family. The economics moved too. Pierson contrasts an era when a convincing fake needed something close to a studio operation with what the same result costs now: a laptop, a small sample of audio or video, roughly three minutes of processing, live video and audio. He points to the February 2024 case where a finance employee acted on an impersonated CFO and twenty five million dollars went out the door. The expanded capability lets a member extend coverage across their circle at no cost to the invited contact. Pierson says the platform can now scale to hundreds, thousands, or tens of thousands of individuals at a single company, along with family members and key contacts. The point, as he frames it, is to stop the deepfake where it starts, which is at the human. What changed for executive protection over the past year? Physical and digital stopped being separate programs. Pierson traces that shift to the murder of Brian Thompson, the UnitedHealthcare CEO, and to the questions corporate security teams started asking afterward. Digital breadcrumbs sit on data broker sites and across the deep and dark web, and erasure is unrealistic, which moves the work toward protection rather than removal. That thinking shows up in the product. Members receive travel advisories tied to where they are going, and a CISO can pair a world threat dashboard with cybersecurity guidance for a specific trip. Behind it sits eight years of member data and one of the larger deception networks aimed at individuals, which shows BlackCloak where targeting concentrates, from executive airports to the Olympics to the World Cup.

    This week on Hurdle, Emily sits down with Olympian, lululemon ambassador, and Meridia founder Colleen Quigley for a candid, post-USATF Championships catch-up in New York City. Ten years after making her first Olympic team, Colleen reflects on the physical and mental shifts that have reshaped her career. After finally getting clarity on a decade-long foot injury, Colleen shares how embracing that answer allowed her to release the pressure of track racing and open the door to exciting new challenges—including stepping into the world of HYROX, navigating a major home renovation in Boulder, and stepping into her power as a brand advocate and team leader. Together, Emily and Colleen dive into what it takes to own your worth as an athlete, the importance of telling authentic stories beyond a 15-second social clip, and why trusting your gut is the ultimate key to conquering life's hurdles. EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS Finding Clarity & Letting Go: Colleen details the breakthrough image that revealed a chronic Lisfranc injury and arthritic foot changes, giving her the peace and permission to step away from chasing track trials and shift toward new goals. Entering the HYROX World: Why Colleen is diving into HYROX training, how it fulfills her need for high-energy indoor events, and the spontaneous doubles pact forged right on the mic. The Evolution of Team Meridia: Transitioning from competing alongside her teammates to serving as a full-time leader and story-teller, giving female athletes the mic to share their full journeys. Navigating Brand Deals & Self-Worth: Colleen breaks down how she learned to negotiate without an agent, why saying "no" creates space for the right partnerships, and how she empowers her athletes to recognize their market value. Life in Boulder & Modern Content: A look at Colleen and Kevin's massive historic home renovation, plus a discussion on why audiences crave raw, long-form connection over hyper-polished social clips. QUOTABLE MOMENTS "I don't know if there's anything that will make me feel the way that trying to go to the Olympics made me feel ... but I'm just ready for a new challenge. I'm ready for something different that makes me get excited and doesn't make me feel defeated." "I'm excited to be able to say yes to those things that I've been missing out on... to say yes to fun runs, vacations, or doubles at HYROX. Saying yes to a lot of new, fun adventures." "Every single deal doesn't have to work out. It just makes space for something else. You have to have some kind of trust that the world is going to look out for you, as long as you're showing up in a way you can be proud of." "If you believe it to be true and you feel like you know something, own it and act accordingly."

    In this episode of the Practical Horseman Podcast, sponsored by Tribute Equine Nutrition and Farnam, we talk to rising eventing protégée Olivia Dutton—daughter of the legendary eventer Phillip Dutton—fresh off her individual bronze finish with Irish Sport Horse gelding Jewelent at the inaugural FEI Eventing World Championship U25 where they also finished as the highest-placed U.S. combination.This new FEI championship held at Millstreet International in Cork County, Ireland, was created to help bridge the gap between Young Rider and senior-level competition and saw 40 riders under the age of 25 from 14 different nations compete at the CCI4*-S level. After dressage, Olivia and Jewelent sat in 26th place, but made a stellar comeback over cross country and show jumping to secure the first-ever individual medal for the U.S. at the inaugural championship.The 24-year-old has blossomed from a wide-eyed, horse-crazy girl into a promising young star in the sport as she carries forward one of eventing's most respected family legacies. In today's podcast, Olivia tells us about her partnership with Jewelent, what it was like having her famous father as a coach growing up and how they continue to navigate the parent-coach dynamics and why she rides for herself as well as for her family's name.About Olivia DuttonGrowing up riding on the family's True Prospect Farm in West Grove, Pennsylvania, under the tutelage of her dad—a seven-time Olympian and two-time Olympic gold medalist—Olivia was immersed in the Dutton's professional eventing operation from time she could walk. Long before recognizing her own competition ambitions, she tagged along with her parents to some of the biggest events around the world where she had the opportunity to watch her dad compete at the highest level of the sport.While her parents encouraged Olivia to pursue show jumping, she caught the eventing bug by the age of 10 when she began competing with one of her first mounts The Dude.

    Looking Back Attack - #10327

    A Word With You

    Play Episode Listen Later Aug 11, 2026


    Most of the major milestones in college revolve around a little four-letter word. Maybe you remember; maybe you're experiencing it now. The word - exam. My wife and I ended up in some classes together while we were in college before we were married, and that meant we ended up being stressed out at exactly the same time, sharing the same questions, the same challenges. But it was after the exam that the differences we had really surfaced because we handled the exam aftermath differently. I'd come away rehearsing questions and thinking, "Well, how did I do on that one?" "What did you write for that one?" And, "Oh no, I forgot to write about that point." I thought about what I might have aced or what I might have missed; generally, I'd relive the exam. Now, my wife on the other hand; she had no desire to look back. When that exam was over, it was over and none too soon! She didn't want to go back and go over and over what was already history. I think she had the better idea. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "Looking Back Attack." Our word for today from the Word of God is from Philippians 3, and I'll begin reading at verse 12. Paul says, "I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus." The imagery here is of a track runner. I happen to think that maybe Paul was a sports fan; he seemed to refer to the Olympics pretty often. And here's this runner going for the gold, and his first step to victory is to forget what's behind you. Let history be history; let the ground covered be the ground covered. You can't do a thing about it! You can't change the past. You can't do anything about the ground you already covered. In simple language, "Don't look back." Too often we're like that college "me." We rehearse again and again what is unchangeable history. I kept thinking about the exam and kept thinking about the questions; couldn't change a thing by thinking about them. And oftentimes we get to the point where we're not focusing on today, on the race that we've still got to run. It's good to learn from the past, but not good to dwell on it. Maybe you're having a looking back attack right now. Maybe it's a past hurt, and you just replay it over and over again. That replay is leading to resentment. If you don't go to the cross and find that grace to forgive that hurt, to release that hurt, you're going to stumble every time you try to run. It's time to focus on forgiving; a new beginning in that relationship. Maybe you're looking back at a past failure and you're paralyzed by it. You're replaying what you did wrong. Learn from it! Accept Christ's erasing and press on for the prize. Don't look back! Maybe you're reliving past history, but it doesn't really mean anything today. It's time to make some new victories, some new memories, gain some new ground for Jesus instead of cruising on the glories of the past. You run so much better if you keep your eyes like Paul said, "On the prize" rather than on the past. The steps that you already took just don't matter that much anymore. What matters is going for the gold today.

    In this inspiring episode of the Reading With Your Kids Podcast, Jed welcomes two incredible creators whose stories celebrate history, heart, and big dreams. First, Jed chats with Emma Otheguy, author of the new middle grade novel Adventure in the City of Stories. Emma takes us to New York City in 1930, a moment when skyscrapers were racing into the sky, the subway was rapidly expanding, and Latino literary luminaries like Pura Belpré, Gabriela Mistral, and Arturo Schomburg were quietly changing history. Through time-traveling cousins Jorge, Segi, and Camila, Emma uses adventure and magic to help kids explore immigration, identity, and the power of stories—without the dry textbook feel. She also shares how reading memoirs and digging into old fire insurance maps at the New York Public Library helped her bring the past to vivid life. Then we travel (in the present!) to Chile to meet Fernanda Frick, creator of the middle grade graphic novel Raise the Bar. Fernanda introduces us to Sam Sánchez, a teen who dreams of becoming an Olympic weightlifter, even when the odds—and the adults—say it's nearly impossible. Fernanda talks about researching elite athletes, drawing thousands of panels, and turning a canceled animated series into a richer, more honest book that tackles burnout, pressure, and choosing your own path. This episode is a celebration of reading together, dreaming big, and truly seeing our kids—whether they're curled up with a novel or chasing an Olympic barbell.

    Send us Fan MailWhat happens when two practitioners with decades of experience stop trying to provide answers and start exploring the questions?In this episode, I reconnect with longtime friend and performance therapist Gerry Ramogida for a wide-ranging conversation about performance therapy, Reconditioning, clinical reasoning, and what it really means to work with complex human beings.Gerry has spent nearly three decades working across the NHL, NBA, NFL, MLB, and Olympic sport, contributing to championship organizations including the Seattle Seahawks and Golden State Warriors. Today, he continues to work in professional hockey with the Vancouver Canucks while educating and mentoring practitioners around the world.We explore why diagnosis matters but can never tell the whole story, why understanding the demands of the person in front of you must precede intervention, and why practitioners need to continually observe, intervene, reassess, and remain willing to change direction. We talk about manual therapy as an input rather than an outcome, the importance of creating ownership after an intervention, and the danger of becoming so attached to our tools that everything begins to look like something we know how to treat.Perhaps most importantly, we talk about uncertainty.After almost thirty years of practice, Gerry makes the observation that certainty simply does not exist when working with complex human systems. Expertise may therefore be less about knowing exactly what will happen and more about developing the knowledge, curiosity and humility to explore what might.Our conversation eventually moves beyond performance and into something even more important: service, relationships and remembering the people who provide the foundation that allows us to do this work in the first place.This is a conversation between two old friends who have spent much of their lives trying to understand human performance and who remain fascinated by how much there is still to learn.

Drew and Alex sit down with him to find out what he learned.What we get into:Gloios — ancient Greek athletes would scrape the sweat and oil off their bodies after competing, funnel it into a jar, and sell it at the gymnasium for medicinal purposes.

    457: Boxer Michael Spinks - With Jack Hirsch

    Boxer Michael Spinks was one of the most accomplished fighters of his generation, even if his career has never received quite the recognition it deserves.  A gold medalist at the 1976 Montreal Olympics, Spinks became the dominant light heavyweight of his era before doing what no reigning light heavyweight champion had ever done: move up and defeat the heavyweight champion, upsetting the unbeaten Larry Holmes in 1985 and beating him again the following year. Yet for many casual sports fans, Spinks is remembered less for everything he accomplished than for the 91 seconds it took Mike Tyson to knock him out in their massive 1988 "Once and For All" showdown. That loss became the final fight of Spinks' career, obscuring a remarkable body of work that legendary boxing writer Jack Hirsch believes deserves far greater historical appreciation. Hirsch joins the show to discuss his newly published authorized biography of Spinks ("Michael 'Jinx' Spinks: An Authorized Biography"), and the fascinating life behind the fighter: his unlikely path from Olympic champion to reluctant professional, his complicated relationship with promoter Butch Lewis, his historic victories over Holmes, the circumstances surrounding the Tyson fight, and the financial turmoil that emerged years after his retirement.  We also explore Spinks' famously low-key personality, his relationship with brother Leon, and why Hirsch places Michael firmly among boxing's all-time greats — even if the wider sporting public has never quite given him his due. + + +   SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK:  "Michael 'Jinx' Spinks: An Authorized Biography": https://amzn.to/4xs4dQ5 SPONSOR THANKS:  Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.royalretros.com/?ref=SEATS Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

    136. Mitch Kupchak: Going for Gold

    The August 9, 1976 issue of Sports Illustrated closed out the magazine's Montreal Olympics coverage with the headline "Awrright! Bruce Jenner Wins Big" on the cover, capturing Jenner celebrating after his dramatic decathlon victory — a performance that included a world-record total and would go on to define his public identity for decades to come, eventually becoming, in the magazine's own words, "collateral" for a life of endorsements, appearances, and fame. The same issue carried extensive coverage of American athletes across the Games' final events, including a deep look at the U.S. men's Olympic basketball team, which went undefeated en route to gold under Dean Smith, avenging the controversial 1972 loss to the Soviet Union with a disciplined, deliberately low-ego roster that included future NBA standouts like Adrian Dantley, Phil Ford, and Quinn Buckner. Together, Jenner's individual triumph and the basketball team's collective one bookended a Sports Illustrated wrap-up of a Montreal Games defined as much by singular American stars as by unified team performances. Mitch Kupchak was a key contributor to that undefeated U.S. men's basketball team, helping the Americans capture gold under Smith's disciplined coaching. Considered by some critics a consolation choice at center after several bigger-name college stars passed on the Olympics, Kupchak silenced doubters with steady, physical play in the post, part of a deliberately even-tempered, team-first roster. That gold medal launched Kupchak into a lengthy, accomplished NBA career, first as a player who won championships with the Washington Bullets and Los Angeles Lakers, and later as one of basketball's most respected front-office executives as general manager of the Lakers and the Charlotte Hornets. Kupchak joins us on Past Our Prime to reflect on a career loaded with accomplishments, and he tells us that winning gold in Montreal still stands as the number one moment of it all. He credits the demanding, disciplined coaching trio of Dean Smith, Bill Guthridge, and John Thompson with preparing him not just for that Olympic run, but for everything that followed, and he opens up about the weight of that 1976 team knowing it had to avenge the U.S.'s controversial 1972 loss to the Soviet Union — a pressure that, once gold was actually secured, made the victory even sweeter. He also shares a warm, personal chapter about being mentored by Jerry West, a relationship that grew from a professional bond into a genuine, lasting friendship. And in one of the show's best stories, Kupchak recounts his father driving back across the Canadian border after the Games, and when a border agent asked if he had anything to declare, his dad beamed and simply said, "Gold." It's a gold medal show with our final Gold Medal winner from the '76 Games in Montreal. The great Mitch Kupchak this week on Past Our Prime. Learn more about your ad choices.

    In this episode, Pastor Rachel explores the profound reality of "Signs and Wonders in the Family," declaring that God's design for the home is not a struggle for survival, but a supernatural journey where children are intended to be "signs and wonders" (Isaiah 8:18). Using the metaphor of an Olympic shooter, she challenges families to ensure they are aiming for the right "bullseye"—the passing down of faith—rather than being distracted by secular achievements. Grounded in Psalm 127:3-5, the message describes children as "arrows" that must be carefully crafted with a strong identity, a foundation in the character of God, and a sharp focus on the Word of God (Hebrews 4:12). Listeners are encouraged to embrace the "12:30 rule" from Mark 12:30, living with a wholehearted commitment to love God with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength. By anchoring their homes in the "Three Rs"—the truth that God is real, God is right, and God is a rewarder—parents and children can confidently stand on Joshua 24:15, choosing to serve the Lord while practicing the "family challenge": "I am here for you and God is here for us".

    Big conversations, heartfelt moments, and headline-making updates keep the laughs and energy flowing on this episode of The Rickey Smiley Morning Show. The crew discusses the latest developments in the ongoing investigation into the death of Nolan Wells, including the arrest of a third person accused of making threats against witnesses connected to the case. Authorities stress that while multiple people have been arrested for intimidation and threatening communications, no one has been charged in connection with Wells’ death, which remains under investigation. The team also reacts to news that former Black-ish star Marcus Scribner has married his childhood sweetheart, Gracie Globerman, after a love story that began in middle school and culminated in a Los Angeles wedding celebration. The highlight of the show is Boosie Badazz joining Rickey Smiley for an honest conversation about faith, family, and navigating life’s challenges. Boosie reflects on how his belief in God has helped him overcome adversity, shares touching stories about prioritizing time with his children, and explains why being present as a father matters more than any material gift. Meanwhile, comedian Bill Bellamy stops by and hilariously recalls getting dominated on the basketball court by the U.S. Women’s Olympic Team, leading to a spirited discussion about just how talented elite women athletes really are.

    Electric boating is having its Tesla moment, and few people understand that shift better than Alexandre Mongeon, CEO and co-founder of Vision Marine Technologies. Andrew sits down with Alexandre to trace his path from importing speed boats in Montreal to building the electric outboard systems now powering boats across North America. Along the way, Alexandre shares how a chance meeting with Olympic sailor and boat designer Ian Bruce set him on the road to electric propulsion, and how a rental-to-sale showroom model in Newport Beach, California, turned a small hobby business into a NASDAQ-listed company. The conversation covers the real tradeoffs of owning an electric boat, from quieter rides and instant torque to range anxiety that Alexandre says almost never becomes a real problem on the water. He also breaks down why big outboard manufacturers have been slow to go electric, what it took to validate the technology with McLaren Engineering, and how Vision Marine used a record-breaking electric race boat to prove the technology could outperform gas power head to head. The episode closes on a topic close to the podcast's heart: Vision Marine's partnership with ocean conservation organization 4ocean, and why quieter boats matter for the marine mammals sharing the water with us. Whether you are a lifelong boater curious about going electric or just interested in how a niche technology scales into a real industry, this conversation offers a grounded look at where boating is headed next. Takeaways Electric boats trade gas fumes and engine noise for instant torque and quiet, social rides on the water Range anxiety is rarely an issue in practice, since most boaters travel under nine nautical miles per outing Vision Marine's acquisition of Nautical Ventures gave it its own dealership and service network across the US A specially built electric race boat has outpaced its gas-powered Mercury counterpart on the same hull Quieter electric motors mean less underwater noise pollution, which matters for marine mammal communication Big outboard manufacturers have been slow to go electric because switching from combustion engine production is costly and complex Vision Marine's partnership with 4ocean has funded ocean cleanup work tied directly to boat sales and rentals Website: https://visionmarinetechnologies.com/ Support Independent Podcasts: https://www.speakupforblue.com/patreon Need help with your ocean non-profit, company, or project?

The result: a smaller-scale games (ten sports instead of the usual 17-18, no road races or triathlon). The core value of the Games — small island nations competing on a multi-sport stage, home nations competing as Scotland/Wales/England/Northern Ireland rather than GB, a stepping stone between junior and Diamond League levels — remains intact.– Men's mile: Josh Kerr gold, 3:54.12: Josh got boxed at 450 out and had to force his way clear, covering extra distance in the process. None of it mattered. His final lap: 53.61. Won by 1.14 seconds over Cam Myers (silver), Timothy Cheruiyot (bronze). Josh is definitively the best miler in the world.– What does Josh Kerr do next? Option A: Zurich Diamond League 1500m world record attempt; Option B: World Ultimate Championships 1500m, Budapest, September, Option C: Fifth Avenue Mile payday (Vote in the Spotify comments section)– Georgia Hunter-Bell wins women's 800m, 1:59.51: Never really challenged. Georgia's first Commonwealth medal. She now has the full set: Olympic medal, world championship medal, European medal, Commonwealth Games medal — all in the last three years.– European Championships women's 800m, August 14th: Keely vs. Audrey Werro rematch: No data on Keely's current fitness — she's been quiet since London. Werro ran a 400m PB of 50.8 at the Swiss champs, jogged a 1:57 800 the same day, and is clearly sharp.– Australia's generational Commonwealth Games: Torrie Lewis and Lachlan Kennedy in the sprints (Kennedy 9.85 national record silver in the rain). Abbey Caldwell, Jess Hull, Claudia Hollingsworth sweep the women's mile 1-2-3. Cam Myers silver behind Josh in the men's mile. Rose Davies 5K/10K double (first Australian woman ever). Ky Robinson medals in both distance events. – Kenya's thinner-than-expected showing: The trend of Kenya's elite distance runners prioritizing the roads is real.– Elise Thorner, women's steeple bronze, 9:05: Personal best in difficult conditions — wind, rain, cold.
