It was our Honor for Judge Frank Caprio to join us for an extraordinary conversation on his Italian American heritage and illustrious career. We start our journey on Mulberry Street, delving into the heartfelt tales of his family's immigration from Italy to the U.S. Judge Caprio offers poignant memories of growing up in Providence's Federal Hill neighborhood, highlighting the profound influence of his cultural roots on his educational pursuits and eventual path to law. As the first in his family to attend college, his reflections on overcoming financial hardships to secure an education showcase dedication and resilience, themes that resonate deeply throughout the episode. Our discussion then shifts to Judge Caprio's remarkable journey as a compassionate judge, a path shaped by his father's lessons of empathy. We revisit his early days on the bench, where he honed his unique style of justice, emphasizing the importance of understanding the human stories behind each case. Judge Caprio's anecdotes reveal how the Italian heritage of compassion and generosity guided his career and how this legacy of empathy continues to inspire him. The stories he shares underscore the core values of justice, love, and understanding that define his approach to the law and his interactions with those who stand before him. Finally, we celebrate the vibrant Italian American culture and its iconic figures such as Joe DiMaggio and Rocky Marciano, whose legacies extend beyond their respective sports. Judge Caprio reflects on their influence, as well as the impact of his own Italian American community in Providence. We also touch on his new book, which encapsulates his life's work and the values of compassion and empathy that he holds dear. This episode is a heartfelt tribute to Italian American heritage and a vivid portrait of Judge Caprio's inspiring life and career, offering listeners a wealth of wisdom and a reminder of the enduring power of love and compassion.

Riecheggiano qui a Olympia i gol e l’esultanza del compianto Totò Schillaci, che oltre a essere stato eroe delle notti magiche dei mondiali di Italia 90, fu anche nella seconda metà degli anni Novanta, uno dei grandi campioni del calcio europeo (e pure sudamericano) che migrarono in Giappone per rilanciare la passione per il calcio nel Sol Levante, ponendo le basi per un movimento che oggi è solido e presente tra le grandi realtà del football mondiale.Ma non è mancato chi in quegli anni e ancora oggi, ha fatto il percorso inverso, dal Giappone all'Europa, e persino all'Italia, per inseguire il proprio sogno calcistico. E quella che vi raccontiamo oggi a Olympia è una storia davvero particolare, che parte da Kobe, in Giappone, per arrivare in un piccolo borgo abruzzese, Ripa Teatina, in provincia di Chieti, cittadina d'origine del padre di Rocky Marciano e dell'altro campione del mondo di boxe Rocky Mattioli, per arrivare poi tra Brescia e Milano, dove ora vive il nostro ospite di oggi. Partito da Sol Levante col sogno di divenire calciatore, in Italia Akira Yoshida ha scoperto la passione per il cobo e la propria attitudine imprenditoriale, ma soprattutto il calore e l’accoglienza di una comunità che lo ha saputo aiutare nei momenti più difficili, in un legame scandito da gol, ramen e… arrosticini!!

Hablar del Madison Square Garden es hablar de “la arena más famosa del mundo”, el templo del deporte, la catedral, el recinto más famoso y popular del planeta. Es el gran escenario del deporte, del entretenimiento y de la música. Pero fundamentalmente ha sido el epicentro del boxeo mundial durante muchísimas décadas. Incluso interviniendo como promotora, el Garden trabajó con los más grandes campeones y sus matchmakers son figuras legendarias dentro de la historia del boxeo. Y si bien, en el boxeo, con los años, fue perdiendo protagonismo en detrimento de otras sedes en Las Vegas, Atlantic City, o ahora en los países árabes, toda estrella del boxeo tiene que brillar en el Garden. Todavía, a día de hoy, cualquier velada en el histórico recinto neoyorquino tiene un sabor especial y una vinculación con la tradición. En casi siglo y medio de historia, el Garden ha tenido cuatro enclaves distintos, cada uno con su importancia y sus acontecimientos legendarios. En su historia hay de todo: grandes gestas, escándalos, crímenes… por ahí pasaron desde John L. Sullivan a Muhammad Ali, de Katie Taylor y Amanda Serrano a Joe Louis y Rocky Marciano o Frank Sinatra haciendo fotos. El Garden lo ha visto todo.

Son of Rocky Marciano, Rocky Marciano Jr joins Frank Mackay on this episode of The Frank Mackay Show!

On this edition we take a look at African-American professional boxer Jersey Joe Walcott, who is regarded among the best heavyweights in the world during the 1940s and 1950s, winning the title at the age of 37. Walcott was born in 1914, and was only 15 years old when his father died. He quit school and worked in a soup factory to support his mother and 11 younger brothers and sisters, and then began training as a boxer. His first bout was in 1930. His last fight was in 1953, when he was knocked out by Rocky Marciano in the first round. After retiring from boxing, Walcott did some acting, playing small parts in a few movies and television shows. In 1956, Walcott performed the role of George the Trainer, in the Humphrey Bogart boxing drama The Harder They Fall. Walcott also refereed several boxing matches, including the second fight between Muhammad Ali and Sonny Liston. From 1971 to 1974, Walcott was the elected Sheriff of Camden County, New Jersey, the first African-American to hold the position. From 1975 to 1984, Walcott was the chairman of the New Jersey State Athletic Commission. You're going to hear Jersey Joe Walcott take on boxing legend Joe Louis in a 1948 rematch on ABC radio. It's one of the earliest bouts broadcast on closed circuit television. More at KRobCollection.com

If you win a race by .001 seconds, have you really “won.”? And certainly, you're not the “best in the world.” On that day, in that place, at that time, you finished barely ahead of the next person. What if you did it again an hour later? Of course, if you constantly and consistently win, you might be the best in the world or the best ever: Yankees, Celtics, Tom Brady, Rocky Marciano, Serena Williams, Jack Nicklaus. In subjective judging, it's really a joke. Those that are the best also get the most benefit in the scoring. Brady threw touchdowns, or he didn't. But the ice skaters, divers, gymnasts, surfers—those with the best records get the best treatment. Then again, there's the doping and the cheating. The Chinese escaped disqualifications for doping by claiming they consumed “tainted meat.” I wonder who slipped them that? By the way, if the Olympics are about simply the fastest, strongest, etc., why keep medal counts and raise national flags to national anthems? What about the bad calls and missed calls from officials? Is break-dancing a sport? Isn't there a practical requirement historically, such as in archery, fencing, judo, or running? Even the pommel horse was used originally to teach mounting and dismounting.  If break-dancing is a sport, why isn't ballroom dancing, which has its own competitions globally and requires superb coordination, training, balance, and teamwork? I was at a Four Seasons where, early in the morning, there was a bed-making and floor-vacuuming competition. Why isn't that an Olympic event? It's a highly coordinated skill done billions of times a day worldwide? Tennis players are athletes. I don't think golfers are, nor are race car drivers. They are certainly skilled and adept, but so are woodworkers and chess players. I understand the ambiguity of X and Y chromosomes and uncertain genitalia. However, I also know that women's athletics and Title 9 were not intended for average male athletes to be stars in another venue. When you “eclipse” someone's record, does it really count if you're using vastly improved equipment, medical support, and venues? Hasn't fiberglass improved vaulting over wood and bamboo? With modern sports medicine, Sandy Koufax would have had another six unsurpassed years. Brady couldn't have played into his 40s. We're a country of 330 million people, and it seems to me that the Australians, with 30 million, eat our lunch in the pool. And they're not as insufferable as we are with the constant chants of USA, USA. (I do chant myself against the Russians and the Chinese.)  Finally, I don't know about you, but the juxtaposition of athletes not supported by anything substantial and working with little money and not the greatest support at home, and the kibillionaire professional US basketball players, marching in the same parade and winning the same medals, well, come on….

US Attorney Dennis Vacco being crooked which made Ron's life difficult, the reasoning for the Union President & his attorney to investigate his background. Ron sets the record straight on Jack Kemp if he was mobbed up. How it all started, training and infiltrating the Russian Mafia. YES, he has met Putin and talked about it. The inside scoop of how Dan Moldea, Robert DeNiro, and Ron helped Gennadi Vasilenko get out of jail and safely to the USA. Who is more terrifying the LCN or Russian Mafia?

Il concerto del quintetto Parker-Gillespie-Powell-Mingus-Roach alla Massey Hall di Toronto del 15 maggio 1953 è entrato nella leggenda grazie ad una registrazione pubblicata già nel dicembre dello stesso anno su due Lp 10 pollici della etichetta Debut di Mingus. Furioso perché per un problema tecnico di registrazione il suo contrabbasso praticamente non si sentiva, Mingus provvide però a sovraincidere la parte del suo strumento, alterando così la realtà del concerto. Nel 2003 fu poi pubblicato Complete Jazz at Massey Hall, che presentava la registrazione senza sovraincisione, migliorata con tecniche che negli anni cinquanta non erano disponibili. A settant'anni dal concerto e dalla sua pubblicazione su disco, in novembre l'etichetta Craft Recordings ha pubblicato Hot House. The Complete Jazz at Massey Hall Recordings, che in triplo Lp o doppio Cd propone senza sovraincisione la registrazione dei brani del quintetto, ulteriormente migliorata nella resa dal trattamento assicurato da Paul Blakemore, mago della masterizzazione e del restauro audio; e assieme mette a disposizione il resto - già pubblicato in precedenza - del materiale del concerto, cioè il trio di Powell e il solo di Roach, e i brani del quintatto nella versione originariamente pubblicata con le sovraincisioni di Mingus, che mantiene il suo valore storico. Il concerto alla Massey Hall fu l'unica occasione in cui Parker, Gillespie, Powell, Mingus e Roach, figure emblematiche del jazz moderno, furono registrati tutti e cinque assieme, e fu anche l'ultima occasione documentata da una registrazione in cui Parker e Gillespie si trovarono assieme. L'album offre anche delle note da cui si ricavano interessanti informazioni su come andarono le cose in quella straordinaria ma anche complicata serata: e possiamo scoprire che Rocky Marciano, il grande pugile italoamericano che quella stessa sera saliva sul ring a Chicago, con un KO alla prima ripresa conservò il titolo di campione mondiale dei massimi, ma forse, senza saperlo, salvò anche uno dei più celebri concerti della storia del jazz.

In episode 106 I respond to negative feedback about episode 105 and just let me say, to the Uber Left, if you're all about protecting the oppressed... protect me because now I am the oppressed... by you.  Also, is religion 'a' or 'the' problem in the world?  What is the true meaning of Christmas for Americans?  I have audio of my then 6 year old daughter describing exactly what Christmas means and it's adorable.  Can a whole ethnicity ever be said to be bad drivers and it not be racist?  Does emotion mess up your perception of reality?  And would an AI remake of "It's A Wonderful Life" into "It's A Wonderful Lust" starring Donna Reed and Jimmy Stewart as you've never seen them before be immoral or the best Christmas movie ever?  This is 16 minutes you won't mind wasting.  Subscribe and THRIVE!!!!

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, it's the 15th of December, 2023, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the First book of Timothy 6:12: "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses." We have got to fight the good fight. We have got to put on that armour of God every single morning because we are in the fight of our lives. I can hear somebody saying, "Oh, but the battle has been fought and the victory is ours when Jesus died and rose from the dead." Quite correct, absolutely correct, but still there is a fight and the fight is within us. Remember what they say? It's not the dog in the fight that wins, but the fight in the dog. Robert Schuller said, "Tough times do not last but tough people do." Rocky Marciano was the only heavyweight boxing champion of the world to have never lost a title fight - 49 fights, 49 wins. He only stood 5 foot 10" tall and weighed about 85 kilos, but what was the secret with Rocky Marciano? The secret was - he never gave up. He could take incredible pain. He was hugely disciplined. You know, I have two little Jack Russells. They think that they are Great Danes! They don't know how to go backwards. There is only one gear they have and that is forward. You and I need to fight the good fight of faith. We need to run this race to the finish line. We need to take hold of that eternal life that we were promised and called to. We have got to flee from sin, we have to vigorously pursue this fight with virtue, strong, healthy, full of energy. Oh my dear friend, I am talking to somebody who is down and out. I am talking to somebody who is giving up the race. You have run such a great race. Why are you stopping now? Get up, dust yourself off and get back in the fight. Now, Paul spoke about a fight, it's in the Bible, folks and I don't think there was a greater fighter than the Apostle Paul, who refused to give up and gave the devil the biggest hiding that he had had for a long time since Jesus walked on this earth. Today, let us confess, "Lord, we need You. Lord, we acknowledge that you are in our corner and Lord, we know we cannot lose this fight if you are with us." He has promised us in Hebrews 13:5: "I will never leave you and I will never forsake you."Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day,Goodbye.

Picking up from Part 4, we meet the rise of Jewish and Italian boxers like Max Baer and Rocky Marciano in the earlu 20th century and New Americans like Martina Navratilova, Charles Jock, and Patrick Ewing in the 21st century, as we continue to explore how sports has been an assimilationist path into American society for generations of new American immigrants.

9-23-2023 Passed Ball Show. John opens up this show congratulating the Minnesota Twins on winning the 2023 American League Central division.

During today's #savingsportshistory segment, John talks about the first ever organized baseball team, Gene Tunney, Rocky Marciano, Jose Canseco, Albert Pujols, and Gale Sayers speaking about the latter in regards to his place among all time NFL running backs.

From Irish and German immigrants dominating baseball in the 19th century to the rise of Jewish and Italian boxers like Max Baer and Rocky Marciano in the 20th century to Martina Navratilova, Charles Jock, and Patrick Ewing in the 21st century, we'll explore how sports has been an assimilationist path into American society for generations of new American immigrants. That's in Episode #37 of The American Tapestry Project.

Jamie Loftus (comedian, writer) returns to the show for a monumental 250th trip around the BP solar system, and perhaps unsurprisingly, we delve into her recent past in the world of hot dogs, as she gets extremely worried she's going to get blocked by hot dog eating legend Joey Chestnut after writing about him in her great book, "Raw Dog". It's a beautiful story that she's so eager to tell, she tells it during the social media update portion of the show. But who cares! It's a great episode that John is forced to record at a "podcast bar" in Calgary as he completed his move but his house does not yet have internet. We spend an awful lot of time discussing that situation, as well as Brockton, Massachusetts' own Rocky Marciano and the 24-foot statue devoted to him in his (and Jamie's) hometown, prompting a brief guest appearance from Jamie's dad, sportswriter Mike Loftus, in the form of a note to help place his career among the boxing greats. Plus, Stefan finally gets a great promoted post and we discuss vitamin overdoses and Mario Kart.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Sunday morning, the 3rd of September, 2023, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the First Book of Timothy 6:12: "Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, to which you were also called and have confessed the good confession in the presence of many witnesses." We have to follow through. Paul said to Timothy, "You have made a confession of your faith and now you have to complete it." There is nowhere in the Bible where it says, "Come to Jesus and all your problems will be over." I will tell you why - because it is not in the Bible. No, not at all. Paul says we have to fight the good fight. That means it is a continual ongoing battle, but when we have made that confession, the Lord Jesus Christ is in our corner! So we are going to win that fight if we keep on. We need to run this race to the end. You only get the prize at the finish line. If you don't finish the race, you don't get the prize. I know that. I ran the Comrades Marathon. I did not finish and I never got the medal. We need to finish the race that the Lord has put us in. Jesus never promised you and me a bed of roses, but He did promise us that He would never leave us or forsake us. Now remember, it is not the fighter that can deliver the punch that becomes the champion. No, it is the boxer who keeps getting up when he has been knocked down. Eventually, his opponent is totally overwhelmed by the man's determination and gives up and loses the fight. There is only one heavyweight boxing champion in the world who was totally undefeated. Rocky Marciano was a small man by today's standards. He weighed about 170lbs, he stood 5ft 9 inches tall, and he was undefeated. He was fighting men who were 6ft 3" and weighed 230 lbs. What was the secret? The secret was that this man could take pain. He just never, ever gave up and eventually he wore his opponent down. Now, you and I are in the fight of our lives. We need to stand. The Lord is in our corner, He will give us directions but we need to keep on fighting, and remember what a reward awaits you and me in Heaven. One day when we have finished our race, when we have fought our good fight, and the Lord says, "Well done, good and faithful servant, come and enter into your rest."Jesus bless you and have a wonderful day.Goodbye.

Rocky Marciano, Mike Tyson, Joe Louis, Jack Dempsey and so forth are legendary punchers, but where do they rank on the list of heavyweight champions with the most knockouts?

Terry O'Neill is a former Irish international boxer turned actor and comedian. During his years in the fight game, the Dubliner won national titles and represented his country across Europe, winning Four Nations gold. His current show, Rope A Dope, is an international hit, featuring twice at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. It's based on his years in the sport and some of the comic elements he came across during his time in the ring. As he says, mental things have gone on over the years, so why not give them a run in the sun? It's joke heavy but it's also about the loss of a dream. Terry dreamt about becoming a professional champion like his idol, Rocky Marciano, but has new ambitions these days in showbusiness. Here, he talks about fighting on the fringes of the high performance revolution in Irish boxing and how emotions often got the better of him around his biggest fights, for better or worse. He discusses his new way of channelling that energy, through performance, the joys of being typecast as a ‘Dublin scumbag' and his ambition to follow classmate and fellow boxer Barry Keoghan all the way to Hollywood one day. It's a frank and open discussion, and Terry kills – especially when he talks about landing one of his biggest roles. He also takes the Boxing Movie Quote challenge with hilarious results.

Back in the 1950s, the heavyweight division was more or less held hostage by Floyd Patterson's trainer and manager Cus D'Amato after Rocky Marciano retired. A number of heavyweights during that time ripened on the vine, if not had a good portion of their careers wasted. On this episode of the Knuckles and Gloves podcast, Patrick Connor and Aris Pina remember a new set of fighters for Part 2 of the Lost 1950s Heavyweights. SUBSCRIBE!

2-13-2013 Passed Ball Show. John opens up this program by supporting the efforts of Kansas City Chiefs Offensive Coordinator Eric Bieniemy that led to the Chiefs winning Super Bowl 57. John has believed all along that teams need to make more conscious effort to hire black Head Coach candidates and he believes there is less of an excuse of not hiring Bienemy based on his success as a two-time Super Bowl Champion Offensive Coordinator. John cites the rise of former KC OC's Matt Nagy and Doug Pederson to back his point that it has to do with race. John then shares his concerns for the future of the Philadelphia Eagles as he claims this was their best shot to win the Super Bowl. Because they have very good to great players on both sides of the ball, it is going to cost the organization a lot of money to bring back the same team. On the TDSH segment, John talks about the "start" of the Negro Leagues, the Renaissance, Boston Redskins, Rocky Marciano, Cool Papa Bell, Hal Chase, Eddie Robinson, and Randy Moss.

Today on The Anthony Gargano Show, Anthony opens the show talking about how we view Jalen Hurts' development with Carson Wentz's Commanders up next on schedule and breaks down a disastrous Phillies game on Tuesday night (0:00-22:41). Anthony opens up the phone lines to get the fans' feelings towards this Eagles team as the excitement over Monday night's victory continues on (22:41-55:32). Anthony and Andrew open up the vault for Rocky Marciano's final fight, various reports on NFL players' strikes throughout the years and Bill Murray's birthday (55:32-1:07:45). Philadelphia Inquirer Eagles beat writer Jeff McLane joins The Anthony Gargano Show to talk about Jalen Hurts' play on Monday Night Football and the game plans, offensively and defensively, that led to the Eagles' decisive win over the Vikings (1:07:45-1:27:15). Anthony voices his displeasure with the “ugly baseball” that the Phillies subjected us to on Tuesday night and the road ahead to the try to make the postseason (1:27:15-1:47:13). After some more discussion of where the Eagles stand, ESPN's Kevin Negandhi joins the show to further the football conversation and takes a look at how Jalen Hurts' play betters the positioning of this franchise moving forward (1:47:13-2:10:16). The show gives you a listen to Nick Sirianni's full press conference from the Eagles' facility as the focus turns to the upcoming game with the Washington Commanders (Till END)

Today's vault takes listen back at Rocky Marciano's last fight which occurred on this date in 1955, as well as some audio from the various NFL players' strikes throughout history (including a wild special report from Veterans Stadium).  Anthony and Andrew also take a listen at one of Bill Murray's most iconic scenes on the actor's 72nd birthday.

On the latest edition of the show devoted specifically to the Heavyweights and their battles, host T.J. Rives and Sean of TopHeavyweights.com return to go over the decision win by Andy Ruiz over Luis "King Kong" Ortiz last Sunday night in L.A.What are Sean's thoughts on whether Ruiz should have finished Ortiz, when he had him down and hurt early? How much do we credit the Cuban for his performance after the early problems to last the distance? Also, T.J. debates whether we have now seed enough of Ruiz to know who/what he is as a contender and would Deontay Wilder potentially detonate him in a later matchup?The guys are also nostalgic about "The Manassa Mauler" Jack Dempsey and the plane crash death of the great Rocky Marciano that had a recent sad anniversary. Finally, there's good discussion on whether we're really close to a Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua all-English showdown for the WBC heavyweight crown? Or are Fury and his management playing leverage games to get a better deal and coax Oleksandr Usyk to fight him next?It's all part of "TopHeavyweights.com the Podcast" and make sure that you are following/subscribing to the Big Fight Weekend podcast feed to get more shows like this on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/Google, etc.!!Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/big-fight-weekend/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

A very good morning to you. I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Sunday morning, 7th of August, 2022, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.Psalm 55 and I am reading from verse 6:“So I said, “Oh, that I had wings like a dove!I would fly away and be at rest. Indeed, I would wander far off,And remain in the wilderness.I would hasten my escapeFrom the windy storm and tempest.”Running away from your troubles is not the answer, it is not the solution - It is very tempting but it is not the answer. We have to face the enemy and then we will have the victory. In Ephesians 6:14, the Lord tells us to stand and not to run. Remember the battle is the Lord's. When you want to make a serious decision in your life, never make it while running away from your problem. Face the challenge and face it head on and overcome it that way. “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.”Revelation 12:11Then make your decision from a position of strength, peace and of a sound mind. We know that scripture so well, don't we?“For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.”2 Timothy 1:7Do you know that Rocky Marciano, heavyweight boxing champion of the world, was one of the smallest and the lightest heavyweight boxers? He had forty-nine title fights and defences of his crown and he never lost a fight. What was his secret? Well, he never took his eye off his opponent. He never turned his back on his opponent. He could take tremendous physical punishment but he never turned away, he always kept on coming forward. “The Lord is my helper;I will not fear.What can man do to me?”Hebrews 13:6This Sunday, face your challenges, face your troubles - Stand with the Lord and He will see you through. Have a wonderful day,God bless you and goodbye.

The land had been cultivated and lived on for millennia when geologist Ferdinand Hayden came upon the astounding Yellowstone "wilderness." It wasn't long before the federal government declared it a national park, to be preserved in perpetuity for the enjoyment of all. Ostensibly. How did Yellowstone go from being an important home, hunting ground, thoroughfare and meeting place to being a park? This episode was reported and produced by our friends at the wonderful podcast Civics 101. Featuring: Megan Kate Nelson, author of Saving Yellowstone, Mark David Spence, author of Dispossessing the Wilderness and Alexandra E. Stern, historian of Native peoples and Reconstruction are our guides to this rocky start.  LINKSFor more about the history of national parks and state-backed conservation, we've got episodes! We've also delved into the history of Yellowstone, with a focus on the original conservation strategy behind it and many other parks, a strategy pejoratively called “fortress conservation.”“Himalayan Land Grab” tells the story of what happened when park developers applied the same “fortress conservation” strategy in northern India.“Thin Green Line” is an exploration of the role of conservation law enforcement through the reality TV show North Woods Law.We've also featured “The Problem with America's National Parks,” an episode of the podcast The Experiment (no longer being produced) which asked: why not simply give the national parks back to Native Americans? CREDITSHosted by Hannah McCarthy and Nick CapodiceProduced by Hannah McCarthy with help from Nick CapodiceSenior Producer: Christina PhillipsExecutive Producer: Rebecca LavoieCivics 101 staff includes Jacqui Fulton.Outside/In team: Nate Hegyi, Taylor Quimby, Justine Paradis, Felix Poon, and Jessica Hunt.Music: Walt Adams, Silver Maple, Arthur Benson, Alexandra Woodward and Rocky Marciano.

During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, Sean conducted a series of interviews for ESBR Boxing that were transcribed into a written article, and now for the first time we are releasing those interviews.
