A new energy is taking over Portland. The Vikings are rising, and at the center of it all is Coach Karlie Burris, the dynamic leader redefining what women's basketball looks like at Portland State University.With over 14 years of coaching experience, Coach Burris brings a reputation for discipline, culture, and player development to Viking Nation. But her story isn't just about wins and losses—it's about leadership, perseverance, and purpose.Born and raised in Tucson, Arizona, Karlie Burris was a natural competitor from the start. After a standout career at South Point Catholic High School, she became a four-year starter at the University of Portland, where her defensive intensity and leadership set her apart. She didn't just play basketball—she studied it. And when her playing days ended, she knew her journey with the game was far from over.Her coaching career began under Hall of Fame coach Joan Bonvicini at Seattle University, and from there, the West Coast became her classroom. Stops at Northern Arizona, UNLV, and Seattle helped shape her philosophy—one built on accountability, player growth, and building championship habits. “We're going to be intentional with each and every day,” she says. “It's about preparation, purpose, and progress.”Now at the helm of Portland State, Coach Burris is leading a cultural shift. The Vikings are young, hungry, and ready to make noise in the Big Sky Conference. With nine returners and a group of talented newcomers, Burris is creating an identity rooted in toughness, energy, and community. “We're building brick by brick,” she explains. “This program will be known for its heart and hustle.”Fans can expect a fast-paced, high-energy style of basketball—an up-tempo attack built on movement, teamwork, and relentless defense. But beyond the X's and O's, Burris's approach is personal. “It's not just a four-year deal with me,” she says. “I'm going to care about these players for the rest of their lives.” That genuine care for her athletes is what makes her one of the most respected young head coaches in the game.Off the court, Coach Burris is every bit as dynamic. A black belt in Taekwondo, an avid golfer, and a skilled guitarist, she lives with the same passion she coaches with. She credits her wife and family for their unwavering support, reminding players that balance, gratitude, and authenticity are key to long-term success.With the season opener against Hawaii on the horizon and four early commitments already locked in for next year's recruiting class, the momentum at Portland State is undeniable. Burris's vision is bold: elevate the program, empower her players, and give Viking Nation something to believe in again.“This city loves women's sports,” she says, her eyes lighting up with confidence. “We're going to give Portland something to be proud of.”In this episode of SportsLifeTalk's You Got Next, Head Coach KT and B Jones sit down with Coach Burris to unpack her journey—from Tucson to Portland, from player to program builder—and explore how she's creating a new standard for women's basketball in the Pacific Northwest.Expect passion, purpose, and powerful lessons on leadership, intentionality, and believing in the process.

Tom opens this week's livestream with a fascinating reflection on a viral video featuring former Portland State professor Peter Boghossian, who—alongside James Lindsay and Helen Pluckrose—exposed corruption and ideological bias in academia by submitting intentionally absurd papers to top peer-reviewed journals. Tom draws a parallel between this famous academic hoax and the state of virology today, where peer-reviewed publishing often rewards conformity over truth.Watch Peter Boghossian's video here.Later, Tom dives deep into Strophanthus, also known as "The Gift from Paradise." Tom shares his thoughts on:- The true observations behind Strophanthus' effects on the heart, nervous system, and more- How modern biology misinterprets these effects using flawed theories like the sodium-potassium pump- The fascinating history of cardiac glycosides like Wabain and why they fell out of use- Why Strophanthus may support energy, relaxation, and vitality—not through “receptors” and “pathways,” but by improving the gel-like structure of our cells- A humorous and insightful critique of peer-reviewed science (and an idea for a spoof paper on climate denialism viruses!)Learn more and shop our Strophanthus here.Support the showWebsites:https://drtomcowan.com/https://www.drcowansgarden.com/https://newbiologyclinic.com/https://newbiologycurriculum.com/Instagram: @TalkinTurkeywithTomFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DrTomCowan/Bitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/CivTSuEjw6Qp/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzxdc2o0Q_XZIPwo07XCrNg
