Game week is here for No. 14 BYU, and KSL Sports BYU Insider Mitch Harper delivers a jam-packed episode to get Cougar Nation fully locked in ahead of Saturday's season opener against Utah Tech at LaVell Edwards Stadium (6 p.m. MT, ESPN+ and KSL NewsRadio). Mitch opens the show with the biggest off-the-field headline of the week: the BYU athletic department has been restructured, with AD Brian Santiago no longer overseeing football operations directly. The move comes after weeks of public tension between Santiago and head coach Kalani Sitake, who turned down Penn State last winter and has been vocal about BYU needing to invest more resources into the football program. Sitake addressed the restructuring during his Monday press conference, sharing his thoughts on the changes and what they mean for the program moving forward. Mitch breaks down Sitake's comments and wonders: Will this be a distraction for BYU football in 2026? As it was last year leading up to the Big 12 Championship Game? Mitch Harper sits down with a familiar voice in the Utah sports broadcasting world — Rod Zundel, the "Voice of the Trailblazers" and Director of Broadcasting and Multimedia Content for Utah Tech Athletics — for a special game-week conversation previewing Saturday's BYU-Utah Tech season opener at LaVell Edwards Stadium. Before becoming the play-by-play voice calling Utah Tech football, men's basketball, and baseball on FM 99.5 in St. George, Zundel spent nearly 24 years at KSL-TV in Salt Lake City as a sports anchor and reporter. He hosted SportsBeat Saturday and Sunday, KSL 5 Golf Utah, and KSL 5 Outdoor Adventures. He's been calling Trailblazer games since 2022, when Utah Tech made its transition to Division I and the WAC, and now enters his first year covering the program in the Big Sky Conference. In the interview, Zundel gives Cougar Nation the insider view from St. George. He shares what Utah Tech looked like in its Week 0 season opener — a 54-0 loss to No. 1 Montana State at Greater Zion Stadium — and what third-year head coach Lance Anderson's team is working on as it prepares to travel to Provo for its first game against an FBS opponent this season. Zundel discusses the Utah Tech quarterback situation, and the players and schemes BYU fans should keep an eye on Saturday. He also touches on the state of Utah Tech athletics as the Trailblazers embark on their first season in the Big Sky, what the program's long-term trajectory looks like, and the unique challenge of preparing an FCS squad to walk into a packed LaVell Edwards Stadium and face the No. 14 team in the country. To close out the show, Mitch dives deep into BYU's first official depth chart of the 2026 season. Among the notable takeaways: true freshman wide receiver Legend Glasker is listed as a starter — the first true freshman to open as a starting wideout under Sitake. Cal transfer linebacker Cade Uluave has earned a starting nod at linebacker despite not yet playing a snap in a BYU uniform, and Oregon transfer Kyler Kasper slots in at another receiving spot. Bear Bachmeier returns as the unquestioned QB1 with Treyson Bourguet behind him. On defense, Kelly Poppinga's first depth chart as defensive coordinator features Faletau Satuala back at safety after recovering from his fractured foot, alongside Evan Johnson at corner and Keanu Tanuvasa anchoring the defensive line. Mitch goes position by position, highlighting the starters, the competition, and the names to watch Saturday night.

Deadly flash floods sweep through the Grand Canyon, leaving at least two dead and more than a dozen missing as rescuers brace for more dangerous weather. Meanwhile, monsoon season is hammering Utah — flash flood warnings hit Orangeville, Carbon County, national parks, and Lynndyl. We break it all down in today's Three Things, plus: a 75,000-person music festival could be coming to The Point in Draper, and tonight marks the last Salt Lake City sunset after 8 p.m. this year.   We discuss why many parents struggle to talk to their kids about money over other difficult discussions.   In News for the 1%: Manhattan's luxury rental market is booming with units hitting $100K a month, and it's easier than ever to fly private without owning a jet. Then, a new industry in China lets aging parents rent "adult children" — but what about the pain of knowing your actual adult child may never launch?   Travel segment: Shoulder season is shrinking and so are the savings; we've got U.S. destinations that feel like international getaways (no passport needed), and the TSA sparked backlash for telling passengers they can bring a hammock through security. Yes, a hammock.   We settle the Logan vs. Provo debate and answer the age-old rivalry: BYU Creamery or Aggie Ice Cream?   We end with the AI question of the day.   KSL Brightside streams live weekdays 12–3 PM.

visit: https://www.ysguys.comDave McCann and Blaine Fowler open a truly global episode of Y's Guys — with viewers chiming in from Singapore, Cambodia, Italy, Australia, New Zealand and across Cougar Nation — by running down a stacked stretch of preseason news heading into the Sept. 5 opener against Utah Tech. BYU checks in at No. 6 in ESPN's preseason power rankings (per Mark Schlabach), running back LJ Martin picks up preseason Second Team All-America honors from USA Today and the AP along with Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year buzz, and Bret McMurphy's AP-voter research names BYU the single most underrated preseason team in the country over the last 12 years. National forecasters pile on from there: Stewart Mandel (New York Times) has BYU going 11-1 and winning the Big 12, while CBS Sports and CFB Kings both project the Cougars reaching the College Football Playoff.Former Cougar linebacker and current BYUtv football analyst Harvey Langi joins for the back half of the news segment, pulling back the curtain on NFL cutdown day — the anxiety of waiting for "the grim reaper" to call, and how some of the league's biggest stars (Taysom Hill, Zach Wilson, Todd Christensen, Fred Warner) turned early setbacks into Hall of Fame-caliber careers. He then breaks down what a healthy, more experienced Bear Bachmeier means for BYU's offense entering year two, how he'd scheme to defend him, and closes with his own ranking of BYU's five toughest games of the season — landing on Arizona, not Notre Dame, as the No. 1 measuring-stick game.The second hour brings the Re-Lyte Athlete of the Week (soccer's Emma Hamberlin, who scored twice to beat USC), a big basketball headline as BYU beats out Kentucky for transfer big man Jaxon Kohler, and a full campus-notes sweep across women's basketball (Delaney Gibb and Canada's run to the 2028 Olympic qualifying final), soccer, volleyball, cross country and baseball. Two Hotel Park City/Ruth's Chris BYU Super Fans round out the show — Greg Schroeder of Twin Falls, Idaho and Provo-studio guest Dean Taylor — each sharing their Cougar histories and playing a round of "Where Were You?" through classic BYU moments, before the Redmond Roots Rollout and a look ahead to next Monday's Game Week Bonanza with Jaren Hall, Rod Zundel, Adam Edmunds and Michael Johanson.Timestamps (approximate):0:00 – Show Open: Live From Singapore to Cambodia, Cougar Nation Tunes In9:31 – BYU vs. Utah Tech Game Week Details + BYU Cracks ESPN's Top 611:04 – LJ Martin's Historic Preseason All-American Honors12:54 – BYU Named Most Underrated Preseason Team in the Country16:27 – Stewart Mandel Predicts BYU Wins the Big 12 and Reaches the CFP21:11 – Week Zero College Football Preview + Cougars in the NFL Before Cutdown Day28:11 – Harvey Langi Joins the Show30:10 – Inside NFL Cutdown Day: Harvey Langi on the "Grim Reaper"35:11 – Harvey Langi on Taysom Hill, Zach Wilson & the Biggest Cuts in NFL History43:00 – How Would You Defend Bear Bachmeier?

In this engaging temple Q&A session, host Rick Bennett fields questions from a Community of Christ group following a presentation on restoration temples inside and outside the LDS Church. The discussion spans a wide range of captivating topics in Mormon history, theology, and architecture: https://youtu.be/vn7odpxo7Kc Don't miss our other conversations on temples: https://gospeltangents.com/mormon_history/lds-temples/ Copyright © 2026 Gospel Tangents All Rights Reserved What you will discover in this presentation: Temple Q&A: Mormon Pentecostalism & Speaking in Tongues The group discusses how early Latter-day Saints in Kirtland rolled on the ground like “holy rollers” and how Mormon Pentecostalism actually predates modern Pentecostalism by about 70 years. They examine how the Book of Mormon’s unique doctrinal connection between the baptism of fire and “speaking in the tongues of angels” laid this early groundwork. LDS Fundamentalism & Temple Practices: The discussion explores why fundamentalist Mormon offshoots (like the Remnant Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints or the Neielson Naylor group) are often seen as having preserved original Nauvoo temple components more closely than the mainstream LDS Church has. Stonehenge as a Jaredite Temple?: In a fascinating segment on international restoration branches, Bennett shares the beliefs of Philip Gill’s group in England, which claims Stonehenge was actually built by Jaredites who traveled through Russia. The group also discusses temple traditions in Mexican and Brazilian restoration offshoots. Nemenha Records & Heavenly Mother: The Q&A highlights a highly obscure set of records from Manti, Utah, known as the “Mantino archives” or “Nemenha record” translated by Philip Landis. The records contain an entire temple endowment ceremony that is almost identical to the LDS ceremony, with one major twist: it refers to a Heavenly Mother. Where Does God Dwell?: Members debate whether physical structures or individual human bodies are the true temples. Drawing from the Book of Mormon’s teaching that the Lord “dwelleth not in unholy temples” but in the hearts of the righteous, they discuss the personal spiritual temple versus the physical buildings that eventually “get torn down”. Future of Kirtland & Salt Lake Temples: Bennett answers questions regarding the LDS Church’s purchase of the Kirtland Temple and the 15-year agreement to keep it as-is. He also expresses deep heartbreak over the seismic upgrades of the Salt Lake Temple, where historic pioneer murals were gutted so the structure could be placed on ball bearings and reinforced with steel rods.

In this “Articles of News” episode, Richie and Verlin (our resident News Wizard) are tackling a packed listener inbox, playing a pretty wild Old Testament version of Smooch, Marry, Kill, and breaking down all the biggest stories happening around the Church right now. Banter & The Listener Inbox Verlin is joining us straight from the 1994-era Durham, North Carolina stake office—getting ready for some weekend ward cleaning and a massive “pig pickin'” (smoked pork and banana pudding, anyone?). Meanwhile, Richie recaps a high-energy DJ gig for the Nightingale nursing group and calls out listener Jack Marinello to step up his game in the Facebook comments. Plus, we dive into a great email from Chris about navigating the “Moco” (Mormon Corridor) and the tricky balance of separating actual gospel principles from institutional church culture. Global Church Leadership & Events Happy 94th Birthday to President Oaks! We chat about his first international trip as the 18th President of the Church to dedicate the Belo Horizonte, Brazil temple. We also touch on Elder Patrick Kearon’s powerful message at Education Week to a crowd of 15,000, where he urged everyone to “stop earning their worth.” Also on the docket: Elder Rasband’s MTC address on the current global missionary surge, Elder Villar championing religious freedom down in Peru, and the Institute centennial broadcast out of Johannesburg. Policy, BYU & Institute Updates What do you guys think about the new, 25-minute-shorter Sunday block schedule? We cover that, along with the digital release of 10 joyful new hymns and the new ward-level event RSVP feature rolling out on the app. Over in Provo, Education Week just wrapped up with 16,000 attendees focusing on Charity, and the new BYU School of Medicine announced an upcoming “Christ-Centered Physician” conference. Plus, Seminary and Institute enrollment has officially topped 1 million globally, thanks in large part to the “Invite a Friend” initiative. Culture & Retention Trends We dig into some shifting demographics today, specifically a BYU Studies report on the sharp decline in church retention among Gen Z women. We discuss the commentary pointing to politics, purity culture, and feelings of powerlessness as driving factors. We also look at some interesting Gallup data comparing lower European church participation to the high devotion metrics seen in Africa, Asia, and Oceania. Finally, we share a laugh over a story about a YSA who shaved her head just to deter unwanted dates, and we discuss the viral Friend magazine article asking, “Are there any girl bishops?” Question of the Week: We want to hear from you! What was your biggest takeaway from Elder Kearon’s message about slowing down and no longer trying to “earn your worth”?

The guys break down every team in the NFC West, AFC West, and the Big 12 Conference ahead of the 2026 season, covering records, coaching changes, free agency moves, the 2026 draft class, and what's on the schedule for each squad.   We start in the NFC West, where the Seattle Seahawks enter as defending Super Bowl LX champions after knocking off the Rams in the NFC Championship and topping the Patriots in the title game. Can the Rams regroup and get back to the Super Bowl after that heartbreaking loss? Are the Seahawks built to repeat? We also dig into what the Mike LaFleur era looks like in Arizona as the former Rams offensive coordinator takes over his first head coaching job, plus the 49ers' latest quest to finally get over the hump.   From there we shift to the AFC West, one of the deepest divisions in football. Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs missed the playoffs for the first time in over a decade — we break down what the plan looks like for 2026. The Chargers and Broncos round out a stacked division alongside a brand-new-look Raiders regime led by new head coach Klint Kubiak, fresh off winning it all as Seattle's offensive coordinator, and No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza.   We close it out with a Big 12 Conference preview. Texas Tech enters as the defending champs looking to become the first team since 2020 to repeat, while Oklahoma State is starting over after firing longtime head coach Mike Gundy just three games into last season. The transfer portal reshuffled rosters across the league, from Provo to Morgantown, and we break down who's positioned to make a run.   Subscribe to Korner Booth for more previews, hot takes, and everything happening across the football landscape all season long.   #KornerBoothPodcast #NFL #NFLPreview #AFCWest #NFCWest #Chiefs #Seahawks #Rams #Cardinals #49ers #Chargers #Broncos #Raiders #KlintKubiak #FernandoMendoza #Big12 #CollegeFootball #TexasTech #OklahomaState #MLB2026 #BellyUpSports

Dave McCann and Blaine Fowler open fall camp week three with the release of the AP Preseason Top 25, where BYU debuts at No. 14 — the Cougars' highest preseason ranking since 1985 and just their second Top 25 preseason nod in 17 years. They run down the full poll (Ohio State, Oregon and Georgia lead the way, with Notre Dame at No. 4 ahead of its October trip to Provo), note LJ Martin cracking Pro Football Network's Top 100 NFL Draft Prospects list as he chases a repeat Big 12 Offensive Player of the Year season, and highlight an ESPN.com feature on why Kalani Sitake is "your favorite coach's favorite coach," featuring quotes from rival Big 12 coaches Brent Brennan, Rich Rodriguez and Joey McGuire. They also address, briefly, the ongoing situation between Sitake and BYU athletic director Brian Santiago before pivoting to a tribute to quarterback Marc Wilson's induction into the Sporting News 1970s All-Decade Team.Campus Notes cover the Cougars in the NFL ahead of roster cutdown day, Rob Wright III's No. 4 ranking among college basketball's top point guards, AJ Dybantsa's NBA rookie schedule, women's soccer and volleyball updates, and BYU golf's showing at the Utah Open. The Re-Lyte Athlete of the Week is freshman Brynnli Tolbert, whose 60th-minute goal at UCLA sealed a 2-1 win. Former BYU tight end Andrew George then joins from Colorado to preview the Cougars' new tight end tandem of Walker Lyons and Roger Saleapaga II, drawing on his own legendary pairing with Dennis Pitta — right down to the play that sprung McKay Jacobsen for the game-sealing touchdown against Oklahoma — and projects what it could mean for Bear Bachmeier's sophomore season.The back half features BYU-Pathway grad Chantell Hammond, founder of Strategy Square, sharing how finishing her degree online transformed her confidence, a Quick Quack Car Wash fundraiser spotlight, and two Hotel Park City/Ruth's Chris BYU Super Fans — Bret Stailey, joining from Jacksonville, Florida with his son Jack, and Janene Creer, LIVE in the Provo studio — who each share their BYU history and play a round of "Where Were You?" revisiting classic Cougar moments.

Big news in the BYU Athletics front office. KSL Sports BYU Insider Mitch Harper breaks down the hiring of Marc Hill as BYU's new deputy athletic director. Hill arrives in Provo after spending 27 years at the University of Kentucky, where he served as deputy director of athletics since 2019 and was the football sport administrator since 2012. Hill was widely considered the frontrunner to succeed longtime Kentucky AD Mitch Barnhart before the school went with an external hire in J Batt. At Kentucky, Hill helped spearhead major facility projects, including a $130 million football stadium renovation, a $49 million baseball stadium, and a $19 million soccer/softball complex. BYU AD Brian Santiago called Hill "a great fit" who brings "a wealth of experience from the highest level of collegiate athletics." BYU advancement VP Keith Vorkink added that Hill's "experience, leadership and alignment with BYU's values" make him an excellent addition. This hire comes just days after the athletic department had to publicly shut down false rumors about Santiago's job status. Mitch discusses what Hill's arrival means for BYU's administrative infrastructure, Kalani Sitake's desire for additional support at the top, and how this fits into the bigger picture of the program's growth in the Big 12. Also on today's episode, Mitch sits down with BYU football outside linebackers coach Chad Kauha'aha'a. The veteran defensive coach, a former Utah defensive lineman, was promoted from senior analyst to outside linebackers coach in February after spending two seasons behind the scenes on Kalani Sitake's staff. Kauha'aha'a brings over two decades of coaching experience at programs including USC, UCLA, Wisconsin, Utah, Oregon State, Boise State, UNLV, Utah State, and Weber State. He and Sitake have a long coaching history together, dating back to their time on the same staff at Oregon State and at Utah. In the interview, Coach Kauha'aha'a discusses developing BYU's edge rushers heading into 2026, what he's seen from his outside linebackers group through fall camp, and what it means to be coaching on the field after two years as an analyst.

Kelly Poppinga is the defensive coordinator at BYU. As a player at BYU, Kelly earned both All-Conference and Academic All-Conference honors. As a senior, he led the Cougars with 113 tackles and helped BYU win consecutive conference championships in 2006 and 2007. He later spent time with three NFL teams and was part of the Arizona Cardinals organization during its run to Super Bowl XLIII (43). Kelly has coached college football since 2009, with stops at BYU, Virginia, and Boise State. And as a coach, he has helped develop several top NFL linebackers, including Kyle Van Noy, Sione Takitaki, and Fred Warner. In this episode we discuss the following: Kelly was crushing it at USU when he got the prompting: follow your dreams. That meant transferring to BYU at a time when players didn't transfer. He lost friends, lost playing time, and even risked losing his girlfriend. And then when he got to BYU, he doubted himself every day as a scout team player. But because he persisted, he ended up as team captain on an all-time great BYU team. Even though Kelly and his wife wanted to stay in Provo, they each individually got the prompting, while sitting in the temple, to head to Virginia. Again it was tough. His wife was 9 months pregnant. They had to move across the country. But it paved the way for an amazing run at Virginia, a 13-year mentorship from Bronco Mendenhall, and now the opportunity for Kelly to return to BYU. We have to put ourselves in uncomfortable positions for us to grow. As Kelly said, we're prone to take the easy path, where it's hard to grow. But by making ourselves uncomfortable, we're forced to grow. 

We Believe: Membership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints: A Christian Conversation by Phillip M Graehl Phillipmgraehlbooks.com https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GPGL17P3 If Jesus Christ is to all people our Good Shepherd and his gospel is the good news, why is there so much contentious debate in the world over all this goodness? Why is there such derision cast between religious bodies and their adherents toward others of differing beliefs? The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and its members have been persecuted since the founding of the Church, and its members often called non-Christian. Is this really true? There are many truths about the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints that invite discussion. There are also many fallacies and misunderstandings regarding the Church that deserve exposure and explanation. Herein is described to the traditional Christian world and all others who will inquire some history as well as doctrines and practices of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, given in an attempt to help bridge a divide that need not exist between disciples of Jesus Christ. “Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” About the author I am a “mid-boomer” having been born in 1955, in Provo, Utah. The first few years of my life were spent in Fort Collins, Colorado where my father attended veterinary school, alternating with summers in Provo which was my father's home town. Over a two year period I lived in Bend, Oregon; Salt Lake City, Utah; and then Glendale, California. Grades K – 3 were in Glendale, and then we moved to Huntington Beach, California. While in Huntington Beach I enjoyed bodysurfing and surfing as well as outdoor sports in general including backpacking and skiing. I also played high school football, basketball, and baseball. I attended college at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City and graduated with a bachelor's of science degree in Geology. One summer in college I worked on the North Slope of Alaska for a geophysical company. The summer after college graduation I worked in Uranium exploration in northern Idaho and northeastern Washington. I attended medical school for two years at the University of Utah and completed medical school at the University of California, Irvine. My post graduate training was in orthopedic surgery at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio, Texas. Prior to completing my training in San Antonio I met and married my wife of the last forty years. My wife is also a physician. Fellowship training in lower extremity total joint replacement and sports medicine occurred in San Antonio, Texas and then Sydney, Australia. My first orthopedic practice was in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Then after two years I immigrated to Texas where I practiced for another thirty years in the northern suburbs of Dallas, Texas. I continue to enjoy outdoor sports, fishing, and I am an admirer of Western art of the United States. After two total hip replacements I have abandoned skiing, but I continue to enjoy hiking in the Rocky Mountains of the United States. I have also found that I enjoy writing. Following my retirement I enrolled at the University of Texas at Dallas and began with a creative writing class. Thereafter, the Covid pandemic caused an acute cessation of my post-post-graduate education.

This episode is number two in a two part series of interviews with Jennifer C. Lane. The first discussed her work on redemption and the life of Abraham, while this episode focuses on exploring the idea of redemption in the Small Plates of Nephi. Dr. Lane in particular connects the teachings about Christ with the Old Testament notion of the kinsman-redeemer. The authors of this part of the Book of Mormon frame redemption in its connection to covenant and the covenant relationship we build with Heavenly Father and Jesus Christ. This episode discusses Dr. Lane's paper “Knowing Our Redeemer: Christ as Kinsman-Redeemer in the Small Plates,” presented as a keynote at the 2026 Small Plates of Nephi Conference held on May 29-30th at Brigham Young University in Provo, UT. The post Conversations with Interpreter: Jennifer Lane — Part 2: Jesus as Kinsman–Redeemer in the Small Plates first appeared on The Interpreter Foundation.

In 2019, John Fenley was 39, newly separated, and living in one of his mother's rental apartments in Provo, Utah. Searching LoopNet for the biggest building at the lowest price, he found a 220,000-square-foot warehouse on 17 acres in Pine Bluff, Arkansas, listed at $375,000. He assumed the price was a typo. He had never been to Arkansas. He bought it anyway — and then bought Murfie, a bankrupt Wisconsin startup, inheriting roughly a million CDs belonging to strangers.What followed was copper thieves, a pandemic lockdown that stranded his shipping containers, a running battle with Pine Bluff's zoning office, and a feud with Go Forward Pine Bluff, the tax-funded nonprofit he believed was blocking him at every turn. Then an $890,000 windfall landed in his bank account, and he bought 74 parcels at a tax auction, making him one of the largest landowners in town. Writer Max Read dubbed him "The Man Who Bought Pine Bluff, Arkansas." Four years later, he's still there.Subscribe to our newsletter: ⁠https://jedlipinski.substack.com/⁠ Connect with Jed Lipinski:⁠https://www.instagram.com/gonesouthpodcast/⁠https://www.facebook.com/groups/gonesouthpodcast/⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jed-lipinski/

Football season is officially here. KSL Sports BYU Insider Mitch Harper kicks off the week with a loaded Monday edition of Cougar Tracks as BYU football players report for fall camp — the opening chapter of what could be a historic 2026 season in Provo. Fall Camp Preview — Mitch breaks down everything you need to know as Camp Kalani gets underway. With Bear Bachmeier entrenched as a returning starting quarterback for the first time for BYU since 2023 without a QB competition, the spotlight shifts to wide receiver battles and Year 1 under new defensive coordinator Kelly Poppinga. How will Kalani Sitake's squad handle what may be the loftiest preseason expectations in program history coming off a 12-2 campaign? Mitch identifies what is keeping Kalani Sitake up at night entering the season. 1-on-1 with Andrew Gentry — Mitch sits down with BYU starting right tackle Andrew Gentry (#75) for an extended conversation. The 6-8, 315-pound RS-Senior and Michigan transfer discusses what was accomplished during summer conditioning and the offensive line's goals entering camp. Plus, Gentry opens up about his NFL aspirations and using 2026 as his final audition for scouts — following a 2025 season where he started all 14 games and earned Big 12 Honorable Mention Offensive Newcomer of the Year. New ROC Ticketing Policy Reaction — BYU Athletics dropped major changes to the student ROC Pass system just days before passes go on sale today at 10 a.m. MT. Mitch reacts to the overhaul: football and men's basketball ticket claims will no longer be first-come, first-served, all ticketed events now require individual ticket claims, and students who claim tickets but don't show up will face reduced access going forward. With ROC Passes now priced at $250 and the student section consolidated into the south end zone at LaVell Edwards Stadium, Mitch weighs in on whether these changes fix long-standing frustrations — or create new ones — heading into a season with blockbuster home games against Arizona, Iowa State, and Notre Dame.

Mitch Harper and Nate Slack share the game day moments they're most excited to experience during the 2026 BYU football season, from pregame traditions and stadium atmosphere to the sights and sounds that make Saturdays in Provo special.

Mourners from around the state gathered this morning at Utah Valley University to honor and remember the Long family, five of whom were killed in a flash flood in Wayne County earlier this month. This was such a sad story: a Provo fire captain, local business owner, and several of their children... all caught in a flash flood outside of the town of Bicknell. One family member -- the daughter of Katrina Long -- was not with the rest of them at the time. Out of respect for the family, we don't take any of the funeral service in this segment. Instead, Greg and Jim share thoughts about the Long family and the legacy they leave behind.

Funeral services wrapped up today... for the Provo Fire Captain, his wife, and three sons that were killed in a flash flood in Wayne County earlier this month.  Joining me now LIVE is Daniel Woodruff, who was at the funeral. 

Dave McCann and Blaine Fowler open the July 27, 2026 episode of Y's Guys one week out from BYU's fall camp report date, digging into Pro Football Focus's Big 12 quarterback rankings (where Bear Bachmeier lands at a surprising No. 6 despite a 12-win freshman season) and PFF's Big 12 running back rankings, where reigning offensive player of the year LJ Martin checks in at No. 3. They also cover The Athletic's ranking of the nation's top senior linebackers, which features two Cougars — Cade Uluave and Isaiah Glasker — in the top eight for the first time in program history, break down College Football Zone's game-by-game win probabilities that project BYU to go 11-1 with the lone loss coming against Notre Dame in Provo, and debate whether Cougar fans can root for Kyle Whittingham's Michigan now that Whittingham, Jay Hill, and Jason Beck have all left Utah for Ann Arbor.BYU Radio color analyst Hans Olsen joins live to tell the story of the LaVell Edwards home visit that flipped him from a Nebraska commitment to BYU, reflect on Kalani Sitake's growth as a head coach and how close the program came to losing him to Penn State, and rank his top five transfer portal additions headlined by Cade Uluave and Roger Saleapaga. Olsen breaks down the difference between playing offensive and defensive line at the NFL level, weighs in on how BYU should manage LJ Martin's workload as he chases the program's all-time rushing record, and closes with his Five Questions picks for the team's biggest impact players by position.The back half of the show covers AJ Dybantsa being named the Big 12's Male Athlete of the Year, men's and women's basketball preseason rankings, new football jersey patch news, and campus notes spanning soccer, volleyball, track and field (including Lexy Halladay-Lowry's repeat national steeplechase title), baseball Hall of Famer Jeff Kent, and golf top-16 finishes from Zac Blair and Patrick Fishburn. Hotel Park City/Ruth's Chris Superfan Kevin Kelley — born the day of the Miracle Bowl — rounds out the night with a round of “Where Were You,” sharing his favorite BYU sports memories from Notre Dame Stadium to Jimmermania.#YsGuys #BYU #BYUFootball #BYUCougars #CougarNation #GoCougs #Big12Football #BearBachmeier #HansOlsen #FallCamp2026 #CadeUluave #IsaiahGlasker #LJMartin #KalaniSitake #NotreDameFootball #BYUBasketball #AJDybantsa #RobWright #BYUSuperfans #ProvoUtah #LDS Hosted on Acast.

My friend Natalie Brown (JD, University of Virginia School of Law; PhD, Columbia University; Latter-day Saint; Salt Lake Tribune guest columnist; and mother of two) joins us to talk about her new book After Happiness: Living with Faith in a Time of Crisis. In the podcast/book Natalie talks about: How gospel messaging became entwined with individualistic formulas for happiness in the late Twentieth Century How some of the formulas the Church associated with the "plan of happiness" are now economically or otherwise out of reach for many members How happiness should not be used as measuring stick of evidence of gospel truth Problems with the “prosperity gospel” How feeling happy is not a choice for many Latter-day Saints—and they shouldn't feel judged for this or told to just be “more happy” How to find peace and opportunity after failure and unwanted disruption Finding perspective in Nephi's story on how to move forward in the face of societal collapse Why she stays in the Church How affordability is a major reality for younger Latter-day Saints Natalie is one of the “wisest and most original thinkers” in our community “tackling the profound question of what constitutes the good life.” If you want to find more peace, hope, and acceptance in your life (and become better at helping others), please read Natalie's book.

Jake, Julian, Liv and Travis are joined by investigative journalists Abner Häuge and Haley Orion, who traveled to Provo, Utah, to cover the preliminary hearings for Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk. They report on the conspiracy circus outside the courthouse: Candace Owens fans camping overnight for fourteen public seats, TPUSA influencers begging their own audience to stick to the facts, and innocent bystanders being doxxed as part of theories involving an exploding microphone and the “Maroon Shirt Boys.” The group also examines the anti-trans narratives surrounding Robinson's partner, the harassment of Hunter Kozak and other witnesses, and the struggle over Kirk's legacy as the conspiracy machine runs without interruption.

On this episode of The Ty Brady Way, Ty sits down with Robyn Maher, IFBB Pro, national level judge, competition promoter, and personal trainer with over 25 years in the health and fitness industry. Robyn's story is one of those that catches you off guard because nothing about where she ended up was part of the plan. She started college at BYU thinking she wanted to do interior design, gained the freshman 15, and decided she needed to make a change. That decision to get healthy set off a chain of events that would eventually lead her to the Olympia stage, judging pro shows across the country, and running one of the most respected bodybuilding competitions in Utah. Robyn grew up watching her parents prioritize health and fitness, and to this day her mom and dad are in their mid-70s and not on any prescription medications. That foundation mattered, but she is quick to point out that she is not naturally thin and that she genuinely struggled with her weight in college. Working at Good Earth Cafe in Provo introduced her to nutrition in a real way, and she channeled that into a transformation that most people who meet her today find hard to believe. She went on to graduate with a degree in exercise physiology and nutrition and has been working in health and fitness ever since. Her path into competing started around 2009 when someone asked her to coach them for a competition. Rather than take on a client for something she had never done herself, she decided to do it first. What was supposed to be a one and done bucket list experience turned into a multi-year journey that took her to the national stage multiple times. She placed third at her first national level competition, which lit a fire she did not see coming. Through a divorce, raising three kids on her own, and the grind of competing across the country, she earned her IFBB Pro card in July of 2015 in the Bikini division. The process took discipline, patience, and the ability to come back after setbacks, including a show where her physique was better than ever but she still placed eighth, a reminder that in bodybuilding you are always judged against who is standing next to you that day. After earning her pro card, Robyn noticed there was no IFBB Pro League competition in Utah at all. That gap planted a seed. Having competed in over two dozen shows across multiple states and observed what made some events exceptional and others forgettable, she decided to create the experience she always wanted as an athlete. In 2016 she produced the first ever IFBB Pro League competition in the state of Utah, held alongside Fit Con. That event grew into the Salt City Showdown, which ran through 2019. When 2020 hit and expos shut down, Robyn refused to cancel on her athletes. She rebranded the event as the Wasatch Warrior, complete with a 12-pound custom sledgehammer trophy that has become legendary among competitors. Athletes from 13 different countries competed at the last event, with the show livestreamed worldwide. People fly in from across the country just for the experience she creates. Robyn also walks through what it takes to become a national level judge, a process far more rigorous than most people realize. She has been judging since around 2015 and earned her national certification by passing a sequestered evaluation at the NPC USA in Phoenix, where she had to correctly identify the top call outs in each division before the head judge made a single call from the stage. She has since judged the Pittsburgh Pro and head judged major events including a national level show in Minnesota. As she explains, you have to earn your stripes. The conversation also covers her role at the Olympia, where she has served as a commentator and analyst for the live worldwide broadcast, interviewing athletes as they step off stage including being there for Chris Bumstead's retirement moment. Most recently she was invited to host a podcast inside the Olympia Expo, interviewing athletes and industry figures like Flex Lewis and Quest Nutrition founder Ron Pena across two full days, all while bouncing over to watch pre-judging so she could speak to what she was seeing in real time. Now her son-in-law and her youngest daughter Ashley are competing, bringing everything full circle in the best way. Robyn's parting message is simple: whatever you end up doing, just be the best at it. For her, that philosophy is what turned a one-and-done competition into a career, a community, and a legacy.   Connect with Robyn Maher: Website: robynmaher.com Instagram: @slcrobynmaher   Connect with The Ty Brady Way: Email: thetybradyway@gmail.com Instagram: @thetybradyway   As always, share, like, and subscribe.

Dave McCann and Blaine Fowler open the July 20, 2026 episode of Y's Guys with a deep dive into BYU football's Big 12 outlook, breaking down the Cougars' all-time series records against every conference opponent, national outlets' win projections (ESPN FPI, CBS Sports' playoff contender tiers, and Brad Crawford's 11-1 call), Las Vegas over/under trends, and a look back at BYU's historic 25-game winning streak from 1983-84, including the infamous upset loss to UTEP that snapped it.

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. 

Everyone in the Tartaria and mudflood space points at the giant 1800s insane asylums: too big, too grand, built too fast, records too thin. So I went and found the records.Full show notes linked at the bottom of the post (80 page document).Watch the video episode:https://youtu.be/4rKtsGZSOx4This is a full evidence check on two of the most talked-about asylum castles in North America: the Toronto Provincial Lunatic Asylum at 999 Queen Street West, tested against the claims of a popular Tartaria website, and the Utah Territorial Insane Asylum in Provo, tested against a 90,000-view JonLevi video. We go through the architects' journals, the original blueprints, the contractor's bid, the newspaper fights between counties, the cornerstone plaques recovered from the rubble, and the murdered architect that nobody in this genre ever bothered to look up. I used to believe this stuff. I wanted it to be true. What does paper trail actually show? A verdict on whether the old world civilization cover-up has any plausibility at all.Remote Biofield Tuning sessions with Chance are available via Zoom.

The Tim Conway Jr Show Hour 3 (7.13) A nasty SoCal heatwave is rolling in with sky-high humidity — we’re all sweating balls out here! Wildfires have sparked but firefighters are working hard on containment. Paris Hilton is back in the news as an advocate fighting to shut down the brutal Provo, Utah boarding school she attended as a teen, though we can’t help missing the old “Simple Life” Paris from the aughts. There’s a vegetation fire called the Zebra Fire burning in Azusa north of the 210, and don’t forget the shirtless nut in East Hollywood who jumped on a Waymo’s windshield, yelling at the sensors and ripping the car apart. In Boyle Heights, residents are dealing with an unbearable rotten stench, flies, and rodents thanks to the 85 million pounds of food rotting at the burned Linear Logistics warehouse, plus a burst water main leaving people without water nearby. On a slightly better note, two corpse flowers are about to bloom at the Huntington Library — those things only flower for 24–48 hours every few years and smell exactly as bad as the name suggests. In celebrity news, comedian Tom Segura and his wife Christina Pazsitzky announced they’re divorcing but will keep doing their podcast “Your Mom’s House” together (that should go smoothly!), while Brad Pitt’s kids Zahara and Maddox took out newspaper ads announcing they’re dropping “Pitt” and keeping “Jolie.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Links Roots, Relationships, and Results What the Scriptures Say About Leadership | An Interview with Shawn Moon Watch the video and share your thoughts in the Zion Lab community Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights This discussion covers foundational leadership attributes compiled from over one hundred interviews with global leaders across various industries. The conversation focuses on intentional personal development, effective relational dynamics, and achieving meaningful outcomes in family and church callings. 00:03:12 – Sean’s Leadership Background 00:05:00 – Unique Stake Presidency Experience 00:05:57 – Genesis of the New Book 00:08:06 – The Concept of the Last Leadership Lecture 00:12:49 – Interviewing Leaders for Insights 00:14:40 – Themes Emerging from Interviews 00:16:14 – The Importance of Personal Leadership 00:19:05 – Leading Without a Formal Title 00:21:19 – The Power of Gratitude in Leadership 00:29:15 – Practicing Gratitude as a Skill 00:32:05 – The Work That Matters 00:35:10 – Trusting Leadership: Extending Trust 00:40:59 – The Impact of Believing in Others 00:43:24 – Conclusion and Final Thoughts Key Insights The Leadership Arc: True leadership functions across three integrated categories: establishing internal roots of personal leadership, building deep relational trust, and executing to achieve sustainable results. Leading Without a Title: Formal authority is not a prerequisite for impact; some of the most profound leadership occurs when individuals step forward to influence and lift others without holding an official calling or position. Emotional Regulation: Effective leaders act as thermostats rather than thermometers. They actively set the emotional temperature and bring stability to a room during high-stress situations instead of merely reacting to the environment. Gratitude as a Multiplier: Practicing deliberate gratitude serves as a cognitive interrupter that shifts a leader's mindset from defensive, reactionary conflict to collaborative, executive problem-solving. Extending Trust: While being trustworthy is a basic requirement, exceptional leadership requires actively extending trust to others, which fosters their potential and builds long-term confidence. Intentional Time Investment: Human life consists of a finite number of seconds. Leaders must prioritize their weekly focus around essential tasks and specific individuals to build deep, lasting connections. Leadership Applications Implementing the 5×4 Method: Latter-day Saint leaders can organize their weekly schedules by identifying five critical objectives and four specific people to intentionally reach out to and lift up. Expressing Written Appreciation: Ward and stake leaders can cultivate a supportive culture by sending regular, handwritten notes of gratitude to members, validating their voluntary service and building deep organizational trust.

It's Friday, July 10th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Finnish MP, convicted for quoting Bible, denied transit through London airport Finnish Member of Parliament Päivi Räsänen, who was recently convicted by Finland's Supreme Court for quoting the Bible, has been told that she cannot go through London's Heathrow Airport due to her alleged “hate crime” conviction, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Writer Rod Dreher broke the news on his Substack on Wednesday. The incident has not yet been detailed by any other outlets, but Dreher's report was reposted on X by the senior counsel of Alliance Defending Freedom, which has defended Räsänen in court over the years. War Secretary Pete Hegseth publicly prayed to King Jesus on July 4th On Independence Day, War Secretary Pete Hegseth delivered this extraordinary prayer at the White House. Listen. HEGSETH: “King Jesus, we come humbly before Your throne, praising You for all the providence You've bestowed upon this nation. For over 250 years, from George Washington to President Trump, we have dedicated this nation to one nation under God, and certainly, in God we trust. “And as we think 250 years ago to George Washington on bended knee in Valley Forge, appealing to Heaven on behalf of his troops in this young nation. We've appealed to You from the beginning, and may we continue to appeal to You. And tonight, we pray for our President, President Trump. Give him safety, give him wisdom. “Lord, we pray for our Vice President, our First Lady, our Second Lady, the cabinet members here, all the governors assembled here as well, our civil magistrates, Lord God. I ask that You give them the wisdom to see what is right and the courage to do it; wisdom defined as fear of the Lord, ear of the Lord being the source of all knowledge and wisdom, Lord God, Your eternal truths may they rule. “So, this evening, also, I would be remiss if I did not pray for our great troops, our men and women all around the globe, defending our great nation, as they have for 250 years. Lord God, watch over them and protect them. “It is in Your holy name, the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, that we pray, and we bless this food, too. Amen.” I bet you didn't hear that prayer on any secular news outlet. In Psalm 35:18, King David offers this prayer to God: “I will give You thanks in the great assembly; among the throngs I will praise You.” Students for Life gives Congress an ‘F' after Planned Parenthood's funding resumes Pro-lifers across America are reeling over the Republican-controlled Congress's failure to keep Planned Parenthood defunded. Now, Students for Life has taken the dramatic step of notifying every member of Congress that they have received a failing pro-life grade as a result, reports LifeSiteNews.com. Last July, President Donald Trump signed into law his “One Big Beautiful Bill”, a wide-ranging policy package that included a one-year ban on federal tax dollars going through Medicaid to entities that commit abortions for reasons other than rape, incest, or supposed threats to the mother's life.  While it denied millions to Planned Parenthood, pro-lifers warned from the start that it was only a temporary solution and urged Congress to enact a more permanent measure ahead of the provision's July 4, 2026 expiration date. Maine's Democratic Senatorial candidate suspends campaign Democratic Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner ended his campaign on July 8th after facing a detailed allegation of sexual assault, an astounding and rapid fall for the leftist oysterman whose dramatic rise and grassroots support helped him overcome establishment opposition to secure his party's nomination, reports Politico.com. But a persistent accumulation of controversies weighed on Platner's campaign for months. Monday marked a turning point: Democratic leadership, many of Platner's staunchest leftist backers, and key groups who had been helping fund his bid withdrew their support and pressured Platner to drop out after POLITICO reported a new allegation of sexual assault. Since his withdrawal from the race, several Democrats have expressed interest in running against Republican incumbent Senator Susan Collins. Appearing on Fox News, Democratic Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania did not pull any punches and spoke directly to Graham Platner on national television. FETTERMAN: “A woman credibly accused you of raping her. He will be remembered as an accused rapist. He's always been a dead man walking.” FOX NEWS HOST: “He choked up a couple of times during that announcement. Do you think he thinks he's the victim here?” FETTERMAN: “Oh, yeah, definitely. Bro, you will only be remembered as the accused rapist that got pushed out of your election. That's your legacy, bro. You are a guy that cheats on your wife. You're the guy that roughs up your ex-girlfriends. That's your legacy, bro.” Trial of Charlie Kirk's alleged shooter reveals testimony from trans roommate In the trial involving Charlie Kirk's September 10, 2025 assassination, suspected shooter, Tyler Robinson, faces several charges including aggravated murder, a capital offense, reports the New York Post. On July 9th, Robinson's preliminary hearing entered Day 4 in Provo, Utah, as prosecutors played redacted video testimony from his ex-lover, Lance Twiggs, a man who pretends to be a woman named Luna. Twiggs was Robinson's former roommate and romantic partner, who was granted "use immunity" for his statements to investigators. Twiggs revealed Robinson's alleged tearful confession after returning home from killing Charlie Kirk — hours before turning himself in. In never-before-seen footage, Twiggs told prosecutors on July 9th that Robinson was walking around their apartment before breaking down and declaring he “wishes he hadn't done it.” The video showed prosecutor Ryan McBride interviewing Robinson's partner, who described Robinson's alleged regret when they spoke in person on September 11 — one day after Kirk was killed. McBRIDE: “Did he talk about what he had done?” TWIGGS: “Didn't go into detail. I just asked him, in person, if what he said was true the night before, and he said it was. He started crying a little bit, and said he wishes he hadn't done it.” Proverbs 12:17 says, “An honest witness tells the truth, but a false witness tells lies.” As related texts were read aloud, Kirk's widow, Erika Kirk, was heard crying in court, according to the Daily Mail. The video and accompanying texts — shown for the first time in court during a preliminary hearing — offered the strongest picture yet of how the accused lone gunman allegedly confessed to the assassination. 31-year-old Charlie Kirk was fatally shot in the neck during a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University. Worldview listeners weigh in from Wisconsin and Florida Wyatt Dennison, age 10, in DeForest, Wisconsin, wrote me and said, “I really like to listen to your newscast during lunchtime every day. I enjoy hearing how the Church throughout the world is doing. I also appreciate your sharing Scripture related to the news stories. My mom homeschools my four siblings and me. We are grateful to hear current events from a Christian worldview.” And Samuel Card in Fellsmere, Florida, wrote, “I enjoy the brief, yet various topics that The Worldview team compiles. Sometimes I go back and delve deeper into a subject that catches my attention. My favorite part is how Scripture is given throughout, showing just how much it applies to every part of life. An added benefit: I have just enough time to listen during my morning walk to work!” 12 Worldview listeners gave $3,345 on Thursday And finally, on Thursday by 5:45pm Central, 12 Worldview listeners stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another 365 days.

We were touched by the generosity of Wendy in Ventura, California, Kelly in Loving, Texas, Steve in Loveland, Colorado, and George in Leesburg, Virginia – each of whom gave $100. And we're grateful to God for an anonymous donor in Cranston, Rhode Island who gave $120, David and Kathy in Crestview, Florida who renewed their pledge for $50/month for another 12 months for a total gift of $600, and Justin in Bozeman, Montana who gave $2,000. Those 12 gifts add up to $3,345. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (drum roll sound effect) $21,043 (sound effect of people cheering) That means we need to raise $9,832 to hit our $30,875 goal by tonight at 12 midnight.

Did you survive the Fourth without personal fireworks? Today we recap our parade experience and want to hear how YOU celebrated America's 250th — then we dig into the fires that broke out despite Utah's statewide ban: a brush fire in Provo's Slate Canyon, a "near-total loss" at the original Costa Vida in Layton after a suspected firework fire collapsed the roof and caused over $1M in damage, and a Kaysville brush fire started by young adults shooting bottle rockets at each other. And of course, THE wedding — Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce tied the knot July 3 at Madison Square Garden with Adam Sandler officiating, Paul McCartney and Stevie Nicks performing, and Chiefs coach Andy Reid (who was in Utah this weekend narrating for the Tabernacle Choir's America 250 broadcast) sharing Sandler's best marriage advice: "Keep kissing."    KSL Brightside streams live weekdays 12–3 PM, with a YouTube-exclusive live stream from 12–1 PM and radio + YouTube from 1–3 PM.   Follow KSL Brightside on social media!

The Tyler Robinson preliminary hearing is underway in Provo, Utah, and this could give the public its first real look at the evidence in the Charlie Kirk murder case. Robinson is charged with aggravated murder in the shooting death of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University, and prosecutors are seeking the death penalty if he is convicted. This is a preliminary hearing, where the judge decides whether there is enough evidence to move the case forward. The hearing will show us how the state plans to prove identification, intent, motive and aggravating factors as they actively pursue the death penalty. It can also show us how the defense may counter the case, challenge the evidence, object to testimony, and begin laying the groundwork for trial. #ProfilingEvil #MikeKing #TylerRobinson #CharlieKirk #CharlieKirkCase #UtahCrime #UtahNews #TrueCrime #TrueCrimeCommunity #CrimeNews #CourtroomCoverage #PreliminaryHearing #DeathPenaltyCase #CriminalJustice #BreakingNews #LegalAnalysis #CourtCase #ForensicEvidence #BehavioralAnalysis #TrueCrimeDiscussion========================================20% OFF Newspapers.comhttps://www.newspapers.com/go/podcast/?ref=profilingevil?xid=8877&utm_source=ProfilingEvilPodcast&utm_medium=podcst&utm_campaign=ProfilingEvil26========================================Discounts on eBikes: https://aipasbike.com/?ref=PROFILINGEVILReferral Coupon Code: PROFILINGEVIL========================================Email your questions to: ProfilingEvil@gmail.com========================================
