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.

n this episode of Unfiltered Waters, Olympic medalist Elizabeth Beisel steps in as guest host alongside Todd Anderson while Katie Hoff Anderson is a week out from giving birth. Together they sit down with Olympic champion and world record holder Gretchen Walsh for a wide-ranging conversation recorded just days before the 2026 Pan Pacific Championships. Fresh off a summer of international racing and her first season as a full-time professional, Gretchen opens up about what success actually looks like when you've already won almost everything, and about the one world record she can't stop thinking about.Gretchen breaks down where her head is heading into Pan Pacs, why relays mean more to her than any individual event right now, and what it's been like to chase Sarah Sjöström's last standing world record while sitting just hundredths away. She also talks candidly about the back injury that reshaped her spring training, what pulling butterfly for weeks accidentally unlocked in her stroke, and why the weight room, power cleans and snatches and all, became the single biggest change in her career. Todd digs into the recovery side too: sleep, nasal strips, and the surgery she's putting off until she's done swimming.Along the way, the conversation goes places most swim interviews don't: speaking Mandarin at a middle school assembly in China, Google Translating with Japanese swimmers in the back of an Uber in Paris, the city she'd move to tomorrow, and a first trip to the ESPYS that put her in the same room as Simone Biles, Ilona Maher, Mikaela Shiffrin, and Eileen Gu. She's honest about feeling out of place there, and about what it means that being famous in swimming is a different thing entirely.Gretchen also reflects on life after the NCAA: missing the team aspect she built her identity around at UVA, why she now calls Team USA her team, and how she sees herself as a bridge between the veterans and the rookies on a roster building toward LA 2028. It's a conversation two former national teamers are uniquely positioned to have with her.Whether you're a sprinter chasing your own breakthrough or you just want to know what one of the fastest women in history is actually like, this episode delivers.

Tatiana Rojas was a former gym teacher and long-time social worker in New York when she decided to tackle her first marathon at nearly 50 years old. What started as a decades-long dream watched on television blossomed into a mission-driven journey across the World Marathon Majors. Growing up watching the New York City Marathon, Tatiana always vowed that one day she would cross that finish line herself. After immigrating to the United States and waiting 20 years—unaware that entry required a lottery draw—a casual conversation with a coworker finally set her journey in motion. She applied, won a spot, and finished her debut marathon in 7 hours, 37 minutes, and 11 seconds. That first race was a complete trial by fire. Naive about training, course logistics, and post-race recovery, she spent a full week recovering in bed and declared she would never run another. The pull of the distance proved too strong to walk away from. Tatiana returned to the marathon with structured coaching and a deeper purpose, dedicating her miles to raising funds for Alzheimer's and dementia research. From there, she committed to the NYRR 9+1 program, kept her momentum through virtual events during the pandemic, and systematically began checking off world majors. Throughout her journey, raising funds for causes bigger than herself became a central pillar. She has raised over $10,000 across various campaigns supporting children and families with disabilities, Catholic Charities, heart disease research, and animal welfare organizations. Just four years after stepping up her structured training, Tatiana completed the Boston Marathon—running alongside her friend Maria Fernanda—to officially earn her Six Star Finisher Medal. Her major marathon achievements include: New York City Marathon: Her foundational race, run multiple times including her debut and post-pandemic returns. Chicago Marathon: Site of her official marathon personal record of 5:48. Berlin & London Marathons: Completed as part of her international major series push. Tokyo Marathon: Completed while raising funds for animal rescue organizations. Boston Marathon: The final piece to lock in her Six Star Finisher Medal. Paris Marathon: Completed during the Olympic year, running the mass participation night marathon. Now turning 66, Tatiana views every mile as an investment in her health, longevity, and vitality. Rejecting the idea that age should dictate limits, she credits running with keeping her prescription-free and deeply connected to a global running community. Her race-day mental strategy relies on positive self-talk—literally speaking to her legs between miles 18 and 23 to overcome fatigue and finish strong. With upcoming plans to run the Sydney Marathon and target the new World Marathon Majors expansion stars, Tatiana continues to prove that passion and persistence have no expiration date.

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

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!

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

Coach Tory hosts Everything Fastpitch today. He notes the U.S. Women's National Team won the International Cup over Japan, with the USA Elite team finishing third, highlighting Montana Fouts and the deep Olympic player pool. City of the week is Greenville, North Carolina, site of the Little League Softball World Series; the equipment tip spotlights the ZVT training tool that uses color feedback to encourage seeing the ball. A listener shares a professionally timed 2.57 home-to-first run at an all-state combine. In the main interview, Neil Anderson explains SkillShark, an app and web platform that replaces paper tryout scoring with mobile evaluations, videos, weighted reports, automated team sorting, self-assessments on character traits, prefilled comments, developmental resource tagging, and automatic swing analysis. Tory advises new travel teams to balance challenging and winnable tournaments through self-assessment, tournament-director input, and coach networking, and closes with a safety PSA urging consistent, proper use of protective screens during hitting drills.SkillShark LinkSupport the show

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.

With special guests: Brendan Morris & Stephan Wellink… in conversation with Bill Kable The Thornetts, a band of brothers as Shakespeare might have called them. Today we explore what makes a champion when we hear about a sporting giant from 1960’s Australia, namely Richard, or as he was more commonly known, Dick Thornett. Dick was the youngest in a family of champions. Dick’s oldest brother was John who became the Captain of the Australian Rugby team, the Wallabies. Under John, the Wallabies had a legendary tour of South Africa. The next brother Ken also played Rugby at a representative level but is best known for his Rugby League abilities. Starting his Rugby League career in England he became known as the Mayor of Leeds before he came back to Australia representing Parramatta and Australia in the Kangaroos. Dick is called “the Natural” because he was so good at any sport he turned his hand to. After representing Australia in water polo at the 1960 Olympics in Rome he went on to represent Australia in two very different sports namely Rugby and Rugby League. Podcast (mp3)

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. She later took over Santa's Playboy, an off-the-track Thoroughbred who had previously competed at the Advanced level with owner Amy Ruth Borun. In 2016, they were Reserve Champions in the CCI2* at the Hagyard Midsouth Three-Day Event & Team Challenge.In 2018, she helped Area II capture team gold at the Adequan FEI North American Youth Rider Championships riding Mr. Medicott and went on to compete at increasingly demanding levels, moving up to Intermediate at Carolina International and later stepping into CCI4* competition.Olivia briefly stepped away from full-time competition to attend the University of Kentucky, where she studied business while continuing to ride and compete on weekends—a balancing act that became a hallmark of her early 20s.In 2022, she partnered with off-the-track Thoroughbred Sea of Clouds after taking over the ride from her dad, who had produced the gelding to the five-star level and finished in 10th place at the 2022 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event CCI5*-L. Olivia and “Socs,” who'd been on the family's farm since he was a 3-year-old, finished 13th in the 2024 Cosequin Lexington CCI4*-S in and were in the MARS Bromont CCI4*-L that same year.Together, the pair has continued to climb the international ranks, contesting multiple CCI4* events, including Bromont International and Boekelo before capturing a standout CCI4*-S victory at the Morven Park Fall International and Horse Trials in 2025.About This Episode's Sponsors: Tribute Equine Nutrition and FarnamTributeAt Tribute Equine Nutrition, caring for horses has always come first.

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.

Motivation got you into reselling — but it will NOT keep you in reselling.

Adam Nelson is an Olympic gold and silver medalist, a three-time Olympian, and a World Champion representing Team USA in shot put. Adam is also a member of the Board of Directors of the United States Olympic and Paralympic Committee (USOPC). In this episode, he shares stories and insights from his athletic career, the circumstances surrounding his 2004 Olympic medal, his experiences as an athlete in the global anti-doping system, and his anti-doping advocacy efforts.

In this episode, Lukie and Dakota talk about the career of Claressa Shields. Shields is, on paper, the most decorated women's boxer ever – two Olympic gold medals, multi-division undisputed champion – you name it, she has done it. Yet, in her match-up with Kaye Scott, there is still a subtle tone of indifference. Shields fought for the past couple of years at light heavyweight and heavyweight partially as a marketing ploy and partially out of a weight class she could enjoy life at. Now, she is going back down to middleweight, where she has had a ton of success, to face Scott. We talk about her career and what is at stake. On the undercard: junior welterweight Ernesto "Tito" Mercado faces Emmanuel Tagoe, women's WBC junior lightweight titleholder Caroline Veyre faces Bernice Ferreira, middleweight Troy Isley faces amateur rival Joseph Hicks, women's light heavyweight Danielle Perkins faces Olivia Curry, and Light heavyweight Atif Oberlton will be featured on the card. The sneaky good bout of the night is super middleweight  Da'Velle Smith, who will be in a "step your game up fight" against Hakim Lopez, the brother of Najee Lopez. Then, we recap this past week. The big news is that we have an IBF middleweight champion: Aaron McKenna. What does this mean for the division, and what does this mean for Zuffa Boxing? The undercard was alright, with Callum  Walsh winning an ugly fight against Tyler Denny. On ESPN, Dina Thorslund outclassed Cherneka Johnson to become the bantamweight undisputed champion, and probably secure her spot as a Hall of Fame boxer. In the co-main event, Tamm Thibeault defeated Desley Robinson to become a unified middleweight champion in five fights. Amanda Galle also defeated Shurretta Metcalf on the main card. We will also briefly touch on the regional bout that saw Callum Simpson avenge his lone career loss to Troy Williamson.Timestamps0:00 Intro0:16 Claressa Shields14:00 Tamm vs Claressa Shields20:00 Salita undercard25:00 Aaron McKenna 30:00 Dina Thorslund38:50 Callum Simpson43:00 George Foreman

Riding Shotgun With Charlie #259 Joe LoPorto NRA State Director, New Jersey Firearm Owners Syndicate    I met Joe LoPorto with some of the other friends from New Jersey while we were at the Great American Outdoor Show in Harrisburg. Since then, Joe has jumped from a career to working for the NRA as the State Director of the northern New England states.   When he was a young boy, he really was into the NRA. At 10 years old, he wanted a membership from his parents as a gift. He would put NRA stickers everywhere. It really seems that working for the NRA was his destiny. He grew up hunting and shooting at a young age, but his real passion was archery. The college years were busy for him. He went to college, got married, went to law school and had kids before he passed the bar exam. All at the same time.    The Bruen decision changed a lot of things in New Jersey and for Joe. For the Garden State, they had to admit the peasants to have their pitchforks and the politicians went kicking and screaming. For Joe, he decided it was time to double down on the Rights fight. He left his career, got more involved with New Jersey Firearm Owners Syndicate and eventually got a job with NRA. The NJFOS was just a Facebook group sharing things like where they're going to meet for rallies, spreading the word about upcoming bills. After Bruen, they expanded and became a full non-profit organization. They've been involved with lobbying and litigation.    The job is overseeing lobbying in those states, keeping up on what's going on in each of them, and going to all the NRA ILA events in each state.And accessing and endorsing candidates, managing the PACs, and being a liaison for the state organizations.   Only taking the job in November  2025, Joe has jumped in with both feet. New England is tough. Massachusetts is a disaster, New Hampshire is the Live Free or Die state, and Maine is a big state that has some pro-gun Democrats. He's been driving up and down New England from New Jersey, and getting his hands dirty with all the activity going on in each of the states. The NRA has a lot going on with various programs, functions, and features. There's really something for everyone at NRA. With NRA 2.0, he's really enjoying where he's at and what he's doing.   With career experience and a law degree, Joe knows how things run within the system and with politicians. Going to each state's capitol, working the state houses, and figuring out how to get around the political landscape in each state is a challenge. He'll be in Boston, then Concord, NH, then back in Massachusetts, and up to Maine. All in the same week.    WIth the elections coming up, there's lots of work to do. Each of the states have different schedules for being in session, election seasons, and, naturally, personalities. WIth his passion and experience, Joe is doing a great job and loving every minute of it.  His grandparents came over from Italy and enjoyed shooting. His cousin was an Olympic clay shooter for the Italian nationals. He's got pictures of his grandfather with small game he's harvested. With some of the firearms he has, he's got a direct connection to his previous generations. So what he's doing with the NRA is really just a family tradition. Favorite quotes: "I'm not new to either firearms or gun rights. That's been a priority for me since I was a little kid." "We can't win every battle. When those battles aren't won, it tends to be the NRA that takes the blame. Which is not necessarily a fair reality." "We didn't truly have a Second Amendment in Jersey until Bruen." "Because the Democrats in the state (Massachusetts) have super majorities in both chambers, they're constantly suspending all those rules."

Shilie Turner was a talented 17-year-old high school track star and team captain with a scholarship offer from Clemson and dreams of competing in the Olympics. On January 17, 1993, she told her mother she was going to a dance but actually spent the evening with her new boyfriend, Shaun Williams.Join Mike and Gibby as they discuss Shilie Turner.

Johannes Klæbo is a Norwegian cross-country skier, an 11-time Olympic gold medalist, and the most decorated Winter Olympian in history. Johannes caught the world's attention with his signature sprinting on skis, sweeping his events and winning the most gold medals ever at a single Winter Olympics. But it wasn't always so; this conversation explores how he got from the middle of the pack at age 14 to the top of Olympic history. We get into Norway's philosophy of raising top athletes, the training mishap that turned into his uphill technique, his 32-hour training week, and his competitive spirit that never switches off. He also tells me the one thing he changed before the Olympics, and it has nothing to do with training. At only 29 Johannes is already one of the greatest Olympians of all time, and it was an honor to have this conversation with him. Enjoy.

Twenty years ago, Zara Tindall and Toytown became World Champions at Aachen. Now, Zara joins Nicole to look back on the week that cemented one of eventing's great partnerships. From arriving as reigning European Champions to cross country around a very different Aachen and a final show jumping round that didn't exactly go to plan, Zara takes us inside the moments she remembers from 2006 and the horse who always seemed to rise to the biggest occasions. She also reflects on what Toytown meant to her career, winning BBC Sports Personality of the Year later that year, the riders and athletes who inspired her, and why she thinks Laura Collett and London 52 have every chance of following the same European to World Championship path this year. Highlights • Zara and Toytown's road to World Championship gold • What Aachen was really like back in 2006 • Cross country with a horse who would always find a way through the flags • The dramatic final show jumping round and missing the bell • Why Toytown was the horse of a lifetime • Winning BBC Sports Personality of the Year • Why Zara thinks Laura Collett can do the double Guest Zara Tindall is a World and European Champion event rider and Olympic silver medallist. She won both individual titles with the legendary Toy Town and has represented Great Britain at the highest level of the sport.  

The Skip Heard Around the Podcasting World - Spotify's "Skip Forward" fallout The big story of the week: Spotify's new ad-skipping option for premium users, first flagged by James Cridland (PodNews) and picked up by Elsie Escobar and Rob Walch on In and Around Podcasting. Marv unpacks why it's such a headache for ad-supported podcasters, traces it back to Spotify's 2018 "Active Media" experiment in Australia, and previews Neil Veglio's upcoming Podmastery episode (Monday 10th August) on how creators might respond — including making shows "less skippable."Sodajerker Songwriting Lab — quick announcement A special one-day workshop from Bri and Si of Sodajerker on Songwriting, Friday 4th September at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, with songwriters Sacha Skarbek and Ben Parker.

Sleep Is the Missing Piece of Recovery? | Nurse Sarah Jeffries on Sleep, Addiction & HealingWhat if sleep is one of the most important—and most overlooked—parts of recovery?On this episode of SleepTech Talk, we sit down with Sarah Jeffries, RN, BSN, MSN, an ER nurse, nurse educator, and sleep health advocate, for a wide-ranging conversation about why sleep needs to be treated as an essential part of recovery—not an optional extra.Sarah shares what she learned firsthand as an ER nurse: sacrificing her own sleep didn't make her a better healthcare provider. In fact, getting adequate sleep was essential to being fully present and effective for her patients.We also explore the connection between sleep and addiction, including how problematic pornography use can interfere with sleep and why addressing the underlying addiction may be an important part of recovery.And Sarah brings a unique personal perspective to the conversation as the wife of Olympic bronze-medal boxer Tony Jeffries. Through his athletic career and recovery, she has seen firsthand just how important sleep can be for physical and mental performance.We discuss:• Why sleep is essential for virtually every kind of recovery• What Sarah learned about sleep while working in the ER• Why healthcare professionals need to prioritize their own sleep• The connection between addiction, pornography use, and sleep• Why sleep should be part of the conversation around recovery from CTE and brain injury• What athletes can teach us about sleep and recovery• Sarah's personal experience supporting an Olympic boxer• Why better sleep may be one of the most powerful recovery tools we haveSleep isn't just what happens when recovery stops. Sleep is part of recovery.About Sarah JeffriesSarah Jeffries, RN, BSN, MSN, is a registered nurse, nurse educator, and sleep health educator with experience in emergency-room nursing.
