There are few names that stir up as much debate in wrestling right now as Logan Paul. This week, Kevin Nash and Sean Oliver dig deep into the rise of the social media star turned WWE United States Champion, and what it really means for the business when someone from the outside not only steps in, but thrives. Kevin isn't shy about calling out what works, what doesn't, and why the energy drink logo on Logan's gear may be just as important as the moves he hits in the ring. From the spectacle of PRIME-sponsored entrances to the reality of locker room politics, Kevin breaks down what Logan's presence does to the culture behind the curtain. Sean presses on whether Logan has earned his place or if the company is simply cashing in on the spectacle. The conversation pulls no punches, balancing respect for athleticism with the veteran's instinct to protect what wrestling is supposed to stand for. But the show doesn't stay locked on Logan. Kevin shares wild road stories about working alongside celebrities of the past, the way crossover stars were handled in the 90s, and why some were embraced while others never made it past novelty status. The guys use those memories to draw sharper lines around what's happening today, and why Logan's case might be different from all the rest. From there, the conversation stretches wider. Sean brings up recent headlines in WWE, from Becky Lynch's latest promo firestorm to shifts in how the company markets its biggest stars. Kevin offers blunt, unfiltered takes that connect the dots between hype, respect, and the thin line between building heat and losing credibility. As always, the discussion doesn't stay predictable. Faith, family, and the lessons Kevin keeps pulling from his years in and out of the spotlight come into play. The show ends up moving from PRIME bottles to prime years of the NBA, from the chaos of influencer culture to the quiet reflection that comes with perspective. It's another Monday morning with Big Sexy, and once again, his honesty cuts through all the noise. Get Blitzed-Save 15% at Get-Blitzed.com by entering the code KLIQ at checkout.

Send us a textLanding my dream job as Director of Referee Programming and Development at SoCal Soccer League marks the culmination of a four-year journey that began when I started the Refs Need Love Too channel as a joke in 2021. What started as an escape from corporate burnout has transformed into a full-time opportunity to improve referee development across the largest soccer league in America, with over 4,400 teams and 40,000 players.This career shift represents everything I've been working toward—taking what I've done nights and weekends for years and making it my day job. The position allows me to create comprehensive training systems that address what current referee education lacks: practical guidance for managing real-world match situations beyond basic mechanics and rules.Current referee training focuses too heavily on the top 1% of officials while neglecting the 99% working grassroots matches. These grassroots referees face entirely different challenges than what's seen in professional matches with perfect pitches and elite athletes. We need practical training for managing bunched play, varying skill levels, and parent interactions at youth levels.For new referees especially, success depends on factors rarely covered in certification courses. Professional appearance creates a crucial first impression. Confident presence during check-in establishes authority. Calling fouls consistently prevents matches from spiraling out of control. Clear communication fills information vacuums that might otherwise be filled with complaints. Proper movement demonstrates effort and improves positioning for making accurate calls.Whether you're a new referee seeking guidance, an experienced official looking to mentor others, or someone considering this rewarding path, remember that refereeing isn't just about applying rules—it's about managing people, creating positive environments, and finding purpose through service to the game we love.Support the show

Whether you're a sports fan or a parent in the stands, there is a distinct difference between the role of the Coach and the role of the Referees.  Nowhere is it more apparent than watching the 2025 NFL pre-season games to get a true perspective on the differences.  In this, part 2 of the conversation with Dr. Brian Lovins, President of Justice System Partners, Brian shares more about the transformative coaching model he and his other collaborators created back in 2018,  how that initial model is now focused on four dimensions of coaching; the Approach, the Connection, the Playbook and the Success, and the importance of accountability, and the real life implications of this innovative model that is evolving and reshaping the experiences of those it was designed for.

Since 1988, the Fox 40 Academy has been introducing, instructing and refining basketball referees to reach their potential. On this Sportsline Podcast, academy directors Ron Foxcroft and Mario Suffoletta spoke about the details of the camp and the importance of paying it forward.

It's a myth that participating in youth sports will build character in youing athletes, say Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski, authors of "Away Game: A Christian Parent's Guide to Navigating Youth Sports." The problem: There are too many variables in youth sports to conclude that participating will build character. Referees are inconsistent. Coaches don't all have the same values. To build character, adults and mature young athletes need to identify and act on character-building moments, they say.

Send us a textWhat separates great referees from good ones isn't just knowledge of the laws—it's emotional intelligence. This deeply personal episode explores the challenging balance of life as a sports official while introducing a powerful mental framework called the  "Let Them" theory from Mel Robbins."We begin with an intimate look at the struggle to balance a demanding marketing career, family transitions, and referee responsibilities. As my two oldest children prepare to leave for college just as the new soccer season begins, I'm reminded how referees must constantly juggle competing priorities while still showing up fully present on match day.For the first time publicly, I share a chapter from my upcoming book about the referee journey. It traces my path from undersized rugby player to soccer official, highlighting how my father's lessons in resilience and discipline shaped my approach to officiating. This rare glimpse into a referee's origin story helps humanize the person behind the whistle.The core of the episode introduces Mel Robbins' "Let Them" Theory specifically applied to refereeing scenarios. This game-changing approach helps officials distinguish between harmless emotional release versus true dissent requiring intervention. When a player screams in frustration after missing a shot or a coach processes a call verbally—let them. When criticism becomes personal or persistent—that's when you step in with calm authority.Most powerfully, the theory extends to self-compassion: referees must learn to "let go" of their own mistakes rather than carrying them like emotional weights. The ability to acknowledge errors, learn from them, and move forward with confidence isn't just helpful—it's essential for longevity in officiating.Whether you're a new referee looking for game management techniques or an experienced official seeking mental frameworks for the toughest scenarios, this episode offers practical wisdom for maintaining composure when everyone around you is losing theirs. Share your own experiences applying these principles in your next match!Support the show

Inspired by the classic "Room 101," we're diving deep into the things that drive us mad about modern football.

Referees on an Ego Trip: Are constant whistles and a love for the spotlight ruining the flow of the game? The Pint Toss Epidemic: Is throwing your expensive pint in the air when your team scores a passionate celebration or just a stupid waste of beer? The Finance Obsession: Have conversations about PSR and FFP replaced actual football talk, turning every fan into an amateur accountant? It's a lively, no-holds-barred debate packed with strong opinions, questionable logic, and plenty of laughs.

Send us a textSoccer's law book undergoes a mini-revolution with the 2025-2026 Laws of the Game, and referee Leland Grant, National Referee Coach and Umpiro founder, breaks down the four most significant changes poised to transform how matches unfold across all levels of play.The first major change introduces a powerful new tool for match officials: the captain-only zone. When surrounded by multiple players, referees can now signal for a four-meter exclusion zone where only the designated team captain may approach. This mechanic directly addresses referee harassment, requiring captains to wear proper armbands and take responsibility for communication. Players violating this protected space face yellow cards for dissent, transforming how disputes are managed on the field.Perhaps most revolutionary is the guidance around the amount of time a goalkeeper may have possesion. The widely ignored six-second rule transforms into a more practical eight-second limit with an innovative visual countdown. Referees now raise their hand showing five fingers when three seconds have elapsed and count down visually until zero, with violations resulting in a corner kick rather than the previous indirect free kick. This balanced approach promises to eliminate goalkeeper time-wasting while providing clear visual cues to everyone on the field.The drop ball procedure receives welcome clarification, allowing referees to use common sense in awarding possession to teams that would have clearly gained the ball, rather than rigidly following the "last touched" principle. The only exception remains within the penalty area, where drop balls always go to the defending goalkeeper regardless of circumstances.These changes reflect soccer's commitment to fairness, clarity, and respect while addressing longtime frustrations with inconsistent rule application. While some competitions like MLS will delay implementation until 2026, most leagues worldwide will adopt these changes beginning July 1st.Ready to understand these changes more deeply?
