Together, Frank and Sathiya unpack the real barriers that keep men stuck: pride, isolation, and lack of purpose and reveal how building community, humility, and small early wins can spark lasting transformation.   They also explore the future of porn in a tech-driven world and why real human connection will always be the ultimate antidote.   This conversation is raw, practical, and packed with hope.

Shrouded in myth and mystery, Gilbert Jessop's 76-ball century is an English cricket record that has stood since 1902. Renowned cricket journalist and historian Simon Wilde has attempted to capture the celebratory mood of the nation that was the backdrop to Jessop's stunning knock. With the brutal Boer War having ended and a new Monarch in place, it was an exciting time of change and advancement in the United Kingdom. Unfortunately, the cricket team hadn't got the memo and having already relinquished The Ashes, England turned to their ultimate impact player to restore some pride. What transpired has gone down in history, with Jessop leading a remarkable run chase which wouldn't look out of place under Ben Stokes. How many balls did he really face? Some new discoveries have helped untangle one of the most disputed innings in cricket history.Purchase Chasing Jessop https://www.amazon.co.uk/Chasing-Jessop-Mystery-England-Crickets/dp/1526692538 Support the show with a Nerd Pledge at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/thefinalword⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Maurice Blackburn Lawyers - fighting for the rights of workers since 1919: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠mauriceblackburn.com.au⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Get your big NordVPN discount: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠nordvpn.com/tfw⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Get discounts on Noobru, the think drink: ⁠⁠⁠noobru.com/finalword⁠⁠ Get 10% off Glenn Maxwell's sunnies: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠t20vision.com/FINALWORD⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Find previous episodes at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠finalwordcricket.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Title track by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Urthboy⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.

Renowned fitness and performance coach for sales leaders, Joshua Hulsebosch, has worked alongside industry giants like Jeb Blount and has designed wellness courses for Sales Gravy University. In the first episode of our “Fit for Sale” series, Joshua explains the vital connection between physical fitness and sales success, sharing real-life stories and practical strategies that busy sales professionals can implement to boost their energy, resilience, and overall effectiveness. From sleep routines to stress management and sustainable nutritional habits, Joshua discusses his daily practices that have helped sales leaders overcome challenges like burnout and really get fit for sale! Outline of This Episode [00:00] The impact of sleep deprivation on sales. [04:28] Fitness habits that help you boost energy, focus, and resilience. [06:32] The role physical health plays in managing stress and maintaining motivation. [08:41] Overcoming the common fitness and lifestyle challenges that Joshua sees in sales professionals. [10:46] Recognizing sleep deprivation signs. [13:43] Your environment shapes healthy habits. [17:16] Empowering sales through wellness. Why Physical Health Matters in Sales Picture a top-performing salesperson—a true “A-player.” Now strip away their discipline, consistent energy, ability to manage stress, and problem-solving skills by depriving them of good sleep, nutrition, and exercise. Suddenly, that superstar slips to an “F,” struggling with follow-up, motivation, and closing deals. Now flip the script: add daily exercise, clean eating, stress management techniques, and better sleep. Miraculously, performance rebounds—discipline returns, energy is steady, focus sharpens, and even efficiency improves by 20-30%. These gains come not from new sales tactics, but from foundational health habits. According to Joshua, the energy, discipline, and mental resilience cultivated through fitness can mean the difference between a struggling seller and a sales superstar. Game-Changing Habits for Sales Performance So, what routines set high-achievers apart? For Joshua, maintaining a consistent bedtime is top priority. “The body loves efficiency,” he says. Going to sleep at the same time every night helped him drastically reduce caffeine and sustain focus all day. This “hidden habit” is a simple yet powerful way to elevate performance. Other keystone practices include: Movement for Motivation: Short bursts of exercise—like jumping rope, even in chilly Canadian weather—can clear mental fog and transform procrastination into productivity. Creating Focused Environments: Eliminate distractions with blackout blinds, noise-canceling headphones, and even earplugs to maximize concentration during deep work. Daily Exercise for Resilience: Nearly half the time, Joshua admits he doesn't want to work out—but pushing through builds the mental toughness so crucial in high-pressure sales. Physical Fitness: The Ultimate Stress Management Tool Sales is stressful by nature—quarterly targets, rejection, and the rollercoaster of commission-based pay. Joshua argues that exercise isn't just about looking or feeling good—it's a proven method for regulating and recovering from stress. Regular movement improves posture and confidence (noticeable even to colleagues), and research supports that the same brain areas developed through exercise boost willpower and tenacity. “With exercise, you're not just building muscle, but the part of your brain responsible for willpower and perseverance,” Joshua explains. That toughness translates directly to overcoming difficult calls, bouncing back from setbacks, and sustaining motivation through inevitable ups and downs. The Top Challenges Sales Pros Face—and How to Solve Them Joshua sees three common health challenges among his sales clients: Sleep Deprivation: Chronic lack of sleep can cut sales efficiency by up to 30%. Many underestimate the long-term career cost of pushing through fatigue. Poor Nutrition (Especially Low Protein): Most salespeople don't get enough protein for recovery and sustained energy. Adding more can have profound effects. Overambitious Overhauls: Trying to change everything at once rarely sticks. Joshua advises clients to focus on one small, consistent change—build momentum and add more later. Preventing Burnout Burnout, Joshua says, isn't simply the result of stress, but of insufficient recovery. Think of stressors (like tough quarters) and recovery (like quality sleep and downtime) as a balance. Recovery that matches or surpasses stress leads to growth and development—not collapse. Too little, and you hit rock-bottom burnout, forcing your body—and your career—to a halt. One client lost over 50 pounds in six months, all through small, sustainable habits. The benefits extended far beyond the scale—energy soared, confidence returned, and he embraced opportunities (like public presentations) that once felt daunting. Health changes didn't just transform his body, but also rippled through his sales performance and even inspired his team. Sales isn't just about the numbers—it's about the person behind the numbers. Invest in your well-being, and watch your sales soar.

On slavery, racism, and the politics of freedom. Renowned sociologist Orlando Patterson talks to contributing editor Alex Gourevitch about themes brought up by his recent The Paradox of Freedom as well as his works as a whole. Why is the study of slavery too affected by the exceptional US American experience? In what way is violence a constitutive feature of slave relations that aren't true of others? Are we still mired in a politics of ethnic chauvinism? What does it mean for ethnic minorities to engage in self-criticism? Is there a politics of freedom that is hopeful today or has it been eclipsed?

Thus far Hizdahr zo Loraq has been true to his word: 26 days with no murders.Skahaz mo Kandaq, the Shavepate, has been spying on Hizdahr and reports that he has visited 11 of the great families' pyramids. The Shavepate is convinced that Hizdahr has this kind of control because he is in control - and thinks a bit of firm questioning would draw out a confession. Daenerys doesn't doubt Skahaz' ability to extract information, she just doubts its usefulness.The Green Grace reports that a rider has come from Astapor bringing the Bloody Flux with him. More refugees follow and Daenerys determines that they will be kept outside the city walls with an attempt made to keep the sick away from the healthy. Brown Ben Plum returns and also encourages Dany to use her dragons.

Gary Vaynerchuk—known to millions as “Gary Vee”—is a serial entrepreneur, visionary business leader, and globally recognized voice on marketing, personal branding, and living life with authenticity. From his humble beginnings as a Soviet Union immigrant hustling at garage sales to building multiple successful businesses and amassing a massive online following, Gary has become the “inconvenient truth” in the world of self-improvement and entrepreneurship. Renowned for his candor, empathy, and relentless consistency, Gary has inspired generations with his actionable wisdom on gratitude, accountability, and the true intent behind success. On this episode, he joins Mick Hunt to dive deep into interest media, personal brand building, and uncovering the purpose that fuels his unstoppable drive. Takeaways Intent Matters More Than Tactics: Gary emphasizes that true impact comes from a genuine desire to serve your audience, not from chasing likes or followers for personal gain. Authentic intent can be felt by your audience and sets you apart from the crowd. Interest Media Over Social Media: The way people interact with digital platforms has shifted—platforms are now more about sharing interests and connecting over passions than about purely social connections. Creators should lean into authenticity and share what makes them unique to attract the right audience. Accountability and Gratitude Are Superpowers: Blaming others or circumstances doesn't lead to growth—taking responsibility for your actions, being grateful for what you have, and minimizing negative influences can supercharge personal and professional progress. Sound Bites “I'm more proud of the compliments and the words of affirmation than any material thing I've gotten from my success.” “If you want to make real impact, run it like a business or don't do it at all.” “You are the brand. The more you're you—all the way you—the more you'll win.” Connect & Discover Gary: Website: https://garyvaynerchuk.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/garyvee/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/garyvaynerchuk/ X: https://x.com/garyvee YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/garyvee VeeFriends: https://veefriends.com/ Books: Day Trading Attention Twelve and A Half Crush It!

Today's guest is Boo Schexnayder. Irving “Boo” Schexnayder is a world-class coach and consultant with over 44 years of experience in track and field. Renowned for producing 26 NCAA Champions and 8 Olympic/World Championship medalists, he co-founded Schexnayder Athletic Consulting and founded the Track and Field Academy. A former LSU coach and USA Track and Field leader, Boo's expertise in biomechanics and training design extends to multiple sports, making him a sought-after mentor worldwide. It's common to think that, as time moves forward in any discipline, that discipline becomes better. What seems to define much of athletic performance and sport itself is that outputs become the priority while movement quality and literacy become watered down. On today's podcast, Boo gives wisdom into the process of comprehensive athletic development by leaning into general strength and movement training. He goes over his movement batteries, scramble circuits, training diversity, and tempo sprints. Boo also gives his take on the use of supramaximal eccentrics, covers hamstring injury prevention strategies, and discusses his sprint-float-sprint protocols, alongside a sea of further training wisdom.

What to try: Keep general strength simple—circuits that are easy to teach, scalable, and repeatable. Don't let weight room complexity replace basic movement skill. Revisit older methods (hurdle mobility, med ball throws) that build coordination without heavy stress. 28:47 – Adding multi-directional work for linear athletes Even linear sprinters benefit from “scramble” circuits and agility-oriented elements. Boo stresses that multi-directional tasks improve coordination, robustness, and adaptability. What to try: Sprinkle in agility, shuffles, and lateral bounds for athletes who train mostly linear. Build circuits that force athletes to problem-solve movement, not just run straight lines. Think “movement quality first”—variety pays off long term. 37:18 – Managing tempo volume for higher intensity Boo highlights that loading too much tempo work flattens intensity. Athletes need tempo in the right amount—enough for conditioning, not so much that it dulls speed. What to try: Keep tempo volumes moderate so athletes can still sprint fast on quality days. Use tempo as restoration or rhythm training, not just mileage. Remember: more work doesn't equal better adaptation—protect intensity. 47:24 – Short sprints on low days to cap tissue load Boo explains that short 10m sprints can safely live on “low” days—they maintain speed exposure without frying the system. What to try: Program 2–3 sets of short accelerations on low CNS days.

How do social movements arise, wield power, and bring about meaningful change? Renowned scholar Linda Gordon investigates these and other salient questions in this “visionary, cautionary, timely, and utterly necessary book” (Nicole Eustace), narrating how some of America's most influential twentieth-century social movements transformed the nation.Beginning with the turn-of-the century settlement house movement, the book compares Chicago's celebrated Hull-House, begun by privileged women, to a much less well known African American project, Cleveland's Phillis Wheatley House, begun by a former sharecropper. Expanding her highly praised book The Second Coming of the KKK, the second chapter shows how a northern Klan became a mass movement in the 1920s. Contrary to what many Klan opponents thought, this KKK was a middle-class organization, its members primarily urban and well educated. In the 1930s, the KKK gave birth to dozens of American fascist groups—small but extremely violent. Profiles of two other 1930s movements follow: the Townsend campaign for old-age insurance, named for its charismatic leader, Dr. Francis Townsend. It created the public pressure that brought us Social Security, which was considered radical at the time, as was the movement to bring about federal unemployment aid for millions.Proceeding to the 1955–1956 Montgomery bus boycott—which jump-started the career of Martin Luther King, Jr.—the narrative shows how the city's entire Black population refused to ride segregated buses; initiated by Black women, their years-long, hard-fought victory inspired the civil rights movement. Gordon then examines the 1970s farmworkers struggle, led by Cesar Chavez and made possible by the work of tens of thousands of the primarily Mexican American farmworkers. Together they built the United Farm Workers Union, winning better wages and working conditions for some of the country's poorest workers. The book concludes with the dramatic stories of two Boston socialist feminist groups, Bread and Roses and the Combahee River Collective, which influenced the whole women's liberation movement. Linda Gordon is professor emerita of history and University Professor of the Humanities at New York University. She is the winner of two Bancroft prizes for best book in American History.  Her previous work includes The Second Coming of the KKK and a biography of the photographer Dorothea Lange.

Renowned fertility specialist Oluyemisi (Yemi) Famuyiwa discusses her article, "When bleeding disorders meet IVF: Navigating von Willebrand disease in fertility treatment." She explains that von Willebrand disease (VWD), the most common inherited bleeding disorder, affects up to 1 percent of the population and poses unique challenges for women undergoing fertility treatments. Because many women normalize symptoms like heavy menstrual bleeding, VWD often goes undiagnosed until an invasive procedure like IVF egg retrieval reveals the condition. Yemi details the specific risks, including hemorrhage during oocyte retrieval, and outlines a comprehensive management strategy. She emphasizes that while IVF is feasible for women with VWD, it requires a carefully planned, multidisciplinary approach involving both hematologists and reproductive specialists. This includes a thorough pre-IVF workup to determine VWD type and severity, a personalized prophylaxis plan that may include desmopressin or factor replacement, and close monitoring during the procedure and postpartum period to ensure a safe and successful outcome.

In today’s powerful and vulnerable conversation, Drs. Zach & Tim Clinton sit down with Joshua Broome to briefly unpack his incredible testimony which includes a journey from being one of the most recognizable faces in the adult film industry to finding true identity, healing, and purpose in Jesus Christ. Together they discuss the devastating effects of pornography and sexual compulsivity/addiction on individuals, relationships, and our culture at large. Joshua shares not only his story but also his passion to help others break free from the chains that once held him captive. This is why in today’s conversation they announce the launch of a brand-new initiative at the American Association of Christian Counselors titled: Walk Worthy. This is an initiative that Joshua will lead moving forward geared toward equipping the church and Christian counselors with resources, training, and discipleship strategies aimed at helping men and women pursue sexual purity, integrity, and deep spiritual formation. Pornography and sexual addiction aren’t fringe issues…they’re mainstream, widespread, and silently destroying countless lives. This conversation is a reminder that hope, healing, and holiness are possible through Christ, and that the church must be a safe, equipped place for those seeking freedom.

Are angels, demons, and miracles real? Renowned atheist turned Christian author Lee Strobel joins Glenn Beck to explain it all. Lee makes a logical case for the existence of God, like he did in his bestselling book “The Case for Christ.” He touches on everything from why young people are turning to God and why so many Muslims in the Middle East are having dreams about Jesus to what near-death experiences really are and whether we're living in the end times. Plus, Lee dissects some of the biggest questions people have about the supernatural: Are ghosts actually demons? Are angels our deceased relatives? How do you know you're hearing from God? Will AI become the Antichrist?   Sponsor: Moxie Pest Control knows exactly how to keep pests out without turning your yard into a chemical war zone.
