Ann Marie Carrizales survived childhood trauma, sexual assault, two officer-involved shootings, and a career in law enforcement. But as she explains in this episode, the hardest battle wasn't the one she faced on the street—it was the one she faced after she made it home. In this powerful conversation, Ann Marie shares the concept behind The Fight After the Fight and why so many first responders, military members, and high performers are trained to survive dangerous situations but never taught how to navigate the emotional, mental, and physiological toll that follows. We discuss the warning signs of unresolved stress, why sleep disruption, irritability, loss of libido, and chronic anxiety often go unnoticed, and how the very traits that keep first responders alive on duty can become destructive at home. Ann Marie also opens up about surviving trauma, the lessons she learned from being ambushed and shot in the line of duty, the role faith and therapy played in her recovery, why nobody is immune to the hidden toll of service, and what she wishes someone would have told her when she first put on the uniform. This is a conversation about resilience, self-awareness, healing, and preparing for the fight that comes after the fight.
Mike Frank from Irish Sports Daily joined the show to preview the season for Notre Dame, a team that BYU will be hosting in Provo.

Wisconsin governor candidate Joel Brennan joins to discuss the fallout from opponent Sara Rodriguez firing her campaign manager over massive campaign finance discrepancies, his take on AI data centers, and his firsthand role in renegotiating the Foxconn deal. Over the weekend, Lt. Gov. Rodriguez — one of five Democrats in the governor primary — announced she let her manager go over hundreds of thousands of dollars in mismanaged funds. Brennan reacts to the news, explaining why he views it as a failure of "competence 101." He details how his own campaign handles its books to ensure accountability before Wednesday's filing deadline, and discusses the political impact on the primary now that a "coronation" has been disrupted. Later, we dive into Brennan's role as Department of Administration Secretary in helping renegotiate the failed $2.85 billion Foxconn contract under Tony Evers. A deal originally put in place by former Republican Gov. Scott Walker and touted as the "Eighth Wonder of the World" by President Donald Trump during his first term. Lastly, we tackle the wild west of AI data centers in Wisconsin. With La Crosse County and its 18 municipalities fending for themselves to pass local moratoriums, Brennan reacts to the state legislature "hanging local government out to dry" on regulation. He breaks down his four-part plan to establish guardrails — including utilizing union labor, implementing strict green standards, banning non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) that keep locals in the dark, and ensuring residential ratepayers aren't stuck subsidizing massive corporate energy bills. Plus, he explains why he supports a targeted, 90-day statewide pause on approvals to write these rules into law, rather than an arbitrary, year-long ban. Though all that would have to wait until after the November election, since the GOP-controlled state Legislature hasn't been in session since April and won't resume work until January of 2027.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
As data centers continue to expand, public pushback has also been growing -- both here in Utah and around the country. But here's a relatively new one for you: farms and zoos. An article in the Wall Street Journal caught Holly's eye over the weekend, on how growers, farmers, and ranchers say too much farmland is being used for these massive AI data centers. At the same time, the Nashville Zoo says a neighboring data center would harm its leopards.

Lindsey Graham has spent decades mastering one political skill above all others: survival. In this conversation, part of the Save America Movement ”Fighting Democrats” series, Steve Schmidt sits down with Dr. Annie Andrews — a paediatrician, mother, and Democratic candidate for the United States Senate — to discuss why she believes that era can finally come to an end. We explore Graham’s political evolution, the exhaustion many South Carolinians feel with performative politics, and why this race is shaping up to be one of the most consequential Senate contests of 2026. If you’re interested in understanding where the fight for the Senate will be won or lost — and in meeting one of the candidates seeking to reshape that battlefield — you won’t want to miss this discussion. It’s a thoughtful, substantive conversation about leadership, accountability, and why South Carolina may be one of the most important political stories in America over the next 16 months.

Professor William Taubman, guest author, reveals that by 1966, McNamara was a secret opponent of the war, admitting to aides that he desperately wanted to bring the troops home, yet he remained the public face of the conflict out of loyalty to the presidency. He faced intense student protests at Harvard and was profoundly shaken by a Quaker's self-immolation outside his window, leading to a period of intense internal conflict. Despite his public defense of the Pentagon, he later claimed that if he had led the anti-war demonstrations, he would have successfully shut the building down. McNamara at War: A New History (7)
A wedding fund gone, a life unraveled, and a lawsuit that asks a hard question: when does entertainment become exploitation?In this episode of The Ebone Zone, we unpack the Illinois federal lawsuit against DraftKings, where a groom-to-be claims the platform didn't just enable his gambling addiction—it allegedly engineered it. What started as casual betting reportedly escalated into VIP perks, algorithmic nudges, and relentless engagement tactics that followed him through financial collapse, job loss, and a mental health crisis.We dig into the tension at the center of the case: personal responsibility versus product design, and whether modern sportsbooks are simply apps—or highly optimized behavioral systems built to keep users betting longer than they intend.This isn't just about one man's losses. It's about the growing legal and cultural battle over how far digital gambling platforms can go in the name of “responsible gaming,” and what happens when the line between choice and compulsion starts to blur.This Week's Featured Hashtag: #AddSunshineToBadNewsOther Interesting ThingsMets/Yankees Video Essay by Dugout SagaESPN's Article on Gambling Lawsuit in Massachusetts Send a text to The Ebone Zone!

https://teachhoops.com/ If you are tired of traditional man-to-man coverage getting picked apart by elite individual creators, but you also hate how a passive 2-3 zone lets good shooting teams sit on the perimeter and hunt rhythm jumpers, it is time to step into the "Truth Room." You need a defensive system that offers the structural safety net of a zone with the aggressive, high-pressure accountability of man-to-man. You need the Match-Up Zone. The match-up zone is a masterclass hybrid defense designed to completely disrupt an opponent's offensive scouting report. To the passing eye, it looks exactly like a standard zone alignment. But the second the offense triggers a cutting action or enters the ball into a screening seam, the zone morphs. It locks onto players based on structural spatial constraints rather than traditional tracking assignments, forcing the offense into late-clock panics, rushed looks, and a massive drop in their Decision IQ. We do not run a match-up zone just to look complex on film; we run it because the mathematical data behind it is devastating to modern, spacing-heavy offenses. Our ultimate defensive metric is suppressing the opponent's Effective Field Goal Percentage ($eFG%$): Traditional zones give up high-probability catch-and-shoot 3s because defenders are guarding "grass" instead of human beings. In a match-up zone, every perimeter catch is met with an aggressive closeout featuring High Hands and immediate ball pressure. By forcing players off the 3-point line and channeling downhill drivers directly into your interior help-side shields, you force contested, low-efficiency looks in the Mid-Range Desert. To transition your squad from basic defensive compliance to fluid, instinctive execution, your shell must commit to three non-negotiable rules: Talk Through the Exhaust: A match-up zone will fail instantly if your gym is quiet. Players must continuously echo vocal commands—calling out positioning shifts like "Ball," "Gap," "Help," and "Bump"—to pass off cutters seamlessly as they cross spatial boundaries. No Uncontested Seams: Every square inch of the paint is fiercely protected. If the basketball enters the high post or the low-block seam, the closest defender locks on instantly while the weak-side wings sink to form a physical wall. The Zero-Second Read on the Ball: There is no "resting" in this zone. The closest defender to the ball-handler must play with relentless ball pressure, tracing the rock with active hands to take away easy skip-passes and force look-ahead execution to stall out. Coach's Note: "A lot of programs avoid the match-up zone because they think it's too complicated to teach. But it isn't a math test—it's a reflection of your team's communication and connectivity. If your players have a high standard of tolerance for laziness, this system breaks down. But when you get five competitors flying around the floor, talking through the exhaust, and treating every spatial recovery like a game-winning possession, you build an absolute shield that opposing coordinators hate scouting."

It was a bit of a weird day at Roland Garros, bookended by a couple of big upsets, with Daniil Medvedev and Jessica Pegula both losing. Catherine, David and Matt discuss it all as we finally completed round one. Part one - Men's results. We cover Medvedev's loss to Adam Walton and his poor record generally at the French Open. Felix Auger-Aliassime survived in a fifth set tiebreak, but with that part of the draw looking pretty light, can he keep it going and reach his semi-final seeding? Elsewhere, Jannik Sinner eased through, but will he keep getting the night session slot? Part two - Women's results (34:06). We react to Pegula's shock defeat to Kim Birrell, Naomi Osaka's sparkly outfit reveal, and good starts for Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka. Part three - Sensation/mousquetaire of the day and a cracking Day 4 Order of Play (53:43).Become a Friend of The Tennis PodcastCheck out our new merch shop! Talk tennis with Friends on The Barge!
