Podcasts about scouts

Joe and Hollywood discuss the Heat introducing Klay Thompson before diving into the latest NFL storylines, including Tua Tagovailoa's struggles in Atlanta and his battle with Michael Penix Jr. for the Falcons' starting QB job. Could Tua even be in danger of getting cut? Plus, Joe breaks down the Dolphins' rough preseason, Miami's lack of talent and historic dead-money situation, and why there's “no excuse” for the offensive line to be bad after nearly 20 years of trying to fix the position. The guys also discuss the latest college eligibility chaos after the Big Ten and SEC shut down pro athletes attempting to return to college, and recap the Marlins' bizarre extra-inning loss to the Red Sox, plus discussion about the Marlins letting go of much of their pro scouting department. The hour wraps with a conversation about the sports card market.

For twenty-five years, exorcists have been sending a New York psychiatrist the cases they can't explain, and they chose him because they expected him to say no.==========HOUR ONE: Different peoples build their identity around different facets of their culture: the Italians around their food, the Greeks around their architecture, America around expanding waistlines. The Isle of Man, however, has pinned its identity today on low tax rates, motorcycle races and, oh yes… mermaids and fairies. (Catching Mermaids on Man) *** Would you be willing to eat your meals off the chest of a corpse, in the process, taking on their sins as your own? That's the gruesome job of a sin eater – and there were people willing to do it even into twentieth-century. (Would You Become a Sin Eater?) *** Dr Richard Gallagher is a New York psychiatrist and a psychiatric professor. He has spent twenty-five years viewing exorcisms – and he says 'fallen angels' target the devout AND those who've meddled with the occult. He says it outright – being possessed by a demon can and does happen, and he has seen it all too often. (Psychiatrist Says Demonic Possession Is Real) *** UK homeowners believe their homes are haunted and want to rid themselves of them, while Americans don't care if a house is haunted so long as it has a swimming pool! (Ghostly Homes And Ghost-Loving Buyers)==========HOUR TWO: Investigators noted the hair on the alleged victim's arms was singed, and the skin burned. The grass where he claimed to have had the encounter was also scorched. Did this scoutmaster and the boys with him truly experience a real UFO sighting in 1952, or was it all a hoax? (The Scouts and the UFO) *** An atheist tells his story about being possessed by demons... or maybe he wasn't. (I Thought I Was Possessed By The Devil) *** Is the Thunderbird real or myth?  Most would say it is myth – or if it was real, it's now extinct. But then how do you explain sightings of the massive airborne creature as recently as 2018? (The Giant Thunderbird Lives) *** Sometimes, the darkness of night can hide frightening secrets. Especially if you are alone. (You'll Never Guess What Happened While You Were Asleep)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: Robert Ressler came up against a lot of resistance, but his dedicated focus on the minds and motives of serial murderers created what we know today as criminal profiling. (The Man Who Created Criminal Profiling) *** An atheist tells his story about being possessed by demons... or maybe he wasn't. (I Thought I Was Possessed By The Devil)==========SOURCES AND REFERENCES FROM TONIGHT'S SHOW:BOOK: “Demonic Foes: My Twenty-Five Years as a Psychiatrist Investigating Possessions, Diabolic Attacks, and the Paranormal” by Dr. Richard Gallagher: https://amzn.to/2YSlhBJBOOK: “20 Commonly Asked Questions About Demons” by Daniel C.

Recorded underground at the University of Arizona's San Javier Underground Mining Laboratory during the 48th Annual Intercollegiate Mining Games, this episode of Mining Minds features Robbie Yordt, a systems engineering student building a path into mining engineering. Robbie grew up in San Diego with a love for the outdoors, Scouts and hands-on learning. He entered college interested in aerospace and mechanical engineering, but an invitation to an SME student meeting - and the welcoming mining community he found there - changed the direction of his education and career. He shares what attracted him to mining, including the people, the scale of the work and the industry's commitment to safety. Robbie also explains his student-operations role at San Javier, his crushed-stone internship experience in Southern California and his upcoming underground engineering internship with Redpath at South32's Hermosa project. IN THIS EPISODE ·      How SME and MineXchange introduced Robbie to the mining industry ·      Why exposure can matter more than experience for the next generation ·      The importance of authentic mining outreach and storytelling ·      Hands-on student learning inside the San Javier underground laboratory ·      What systems engineering can contribute to mining operations and equipment ·      Robbie's goals for a career built around good people, meaningful work and time outdoors YouTube- https://youtu.be/qza7xFpIKNU EPISODE SPONSORS Safety First Training & Consulting - https://safetyfirstelko.com Walsh Reclamation, Inc. - https://walshreclamationinc.com Motor Mission Machine & Radiator - https://www.motormission.com Learn more about Mining Minds and explore additional episodes at https://miningmindsllc.com.

Twenty years after helping the St. Louis Cardinals win the 2006 World Series, Randy Flores is back with The Rizzuto Show — except now he's sitting on the other side of baseball, helping find the players who could become the Cardinals' next generation of stars.The Cardinals assistant GM of scouting and acquisition joins this comedy podcast to talk about Draft365: Scouting MLB's Future Stars, a behind-the-scenes look at a side of professional baseball fans almost never get to see.And when we say behind the scenes, we mean it.Flores explains how roughly 23 Cardinals scouts spread across the country evaluate elite high school and college talent, how players make their way onto the organization's radar, and what happens when scouts, analysts, data engineers, performance specialists and actual human eyeballs all have to agree on which teenager might someday be standing at Busch Stadium.Turns out it's slightly more complicated than your uncle saying, “Kid's got a good swing.”Randy also explains just how absurdly difficult it is to reach Major League Baseball. The crew immediately starts Googling percentages, Rafe consults what basically becomes “Gronk AI,” and everyone arrives at the same scientific conclusion:Your odds aren't great.Even the players who get drafted were usually THE player where they came from — the best kid in their town, school or region — only to arrive in professional baseball and discover they're now surrounded by hundreds of other guys who were also the best kid everywhere they came from.Welcome to the world's most emotionally devastating All-Star team.Flores talks about seeing that firsthand after being drafted himself and walking into the Yankees system, where he realized his team was only one of several groups making cuts — inside just one organization. Multiply that by the rest of Major League Baseball and suddenly “making the show” sounds less like a career plan and more like surviving a very athletic Hunger Games.The conversation also dives into Cardinals prospects like Jordan Walker and Joshua Baez, including how the unusual COVID-era draft helped St. Louis feel confident about Walker and how adversity in the minor leagues helped prepare Baez for his eventual opportunity.And despite baseball becoming more obsessed with analytics, Randy explains why scouting still can't be reduced to numbers on a screen. Players leave home. They struggle. They get hurt. They fail for possibly the first time in their lives. Scouts aren't only evaluating what someone can do when everything is going right — they're trying to figure out what happens when baseball punches them directly in the mouth.That's where the human side still matters.For parents convinced they're currently raising the next MLB superstar, Flores also delivers some advice that may save everybody several thousand dollars and one deeply uncomfortable car ride home: if the kid is truly good enough, scouts will find them. Parents can help most by supporting the kid instead of turning every Little League game into Game 7 of the World Series.The pressure is already enormous. Kids now have rankings, social media clips and embarrassing moments that can follow them indefinitely. Randy's advice is refreshingly simple: home should still be the safe place.We also get into Randy's unusual road from an eight-year MLB career to graduate school, broadcasting, coaching, entrepreneurship and eventually a phone call from John Mozeliak asking whether he'd consider becoming a scouting director — to which Randy essentially responded, “Cool. What's a scouting director?”Career planning!Plus, Randy previews the 20-year reunion of the 2006 World Series champion Cardinals and explains what he hopes fans take away from Draft365: behind every prospect is an enormous group of people obsessively trying to keep the Cardinals' pipeline loaded with talent.By the end, Rafe wants to be scouted, Moon wants a job, Jon Lovitz's performance as a scout in A League of Their Own is finally evaluated by an actual professional, and somehow Marla Hooch helps bring the interview home.It's baseball insight, St. Louis Cardinals history and just enough nonsense to remind Randy he willingly walked into a comedy podcast.Twenty-five minutes later, we're all convinced we're getting drafted.We're not.But that's never stopped this comedy podcast before.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today we are joined by Ian Goldin, Senior Lead Information Security Engineer, and Mike Horka, Principal Information Security Engineer, from Lumen's Black Lotus Labs, discussing their research entitled "Expanded JDY IoT and SOHO botnet enables rapid vulnerability exploitation." Black Lotus Labs has uncovered a major resurgence of the JDY botnet, a China-nexus reconnaissance network now comprising more than 1,500 compromised SOHO and IoT devices. The botnet uses these devices to conduct targeted scanning and fingerprinting, helping threat actors rapidly identify vulnerable infrastructure—sometimes within hours of a new vulnerability disclosure—and appears to have a particular focus on U.S. military-related networks. The research highlights how compromised routers and IoT devices can be turned into distributed reconnaissance infrastructure that evades traditional IP-based defenses and supports follow-on exploitation. The research and executive brief can be found here: Expanded JDY IoT and SOHO botnet enables rapid vulnerability exploitation

April 26, 1970. East Pikeland Township, Pennsylvania. While on a weekend camping trip with his Boy Scout troop, eleven-year old Terry Bowers is discovered dead inside his sleeping bag after having been stabbed four times during the early morning hours. Even though Terry was sleeping outside and there were nearly 30 other people at the campsite, no one reported seeing or hearing anything unusual and the murder weapon cannot be found. An extensive investigation turns up some leads, but no solid suspects, so Terry's murder is never solved and the motive for the crime remains unclear. On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the death of Terry Bowers, one of the most perplexing child murders you'll ever find. If you have any information about this case, please contact the Embreeville station of the Pennsylvania State Police at (610) 486-6280 or Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers at 1-800-4PA-TIPS (1-800-472-8477).

I wanted to expand on the items that Adult leaders shouldn't bring to Philmont.  So, on this edition we'll talk about bringing a separate tent for the adults.  On the Philmont Trek Talk Facebook group, this topic creates a lot of discussion on both sides.  Philmont Tent - Philmont will provide 2 person tents as a part of the fees paid.  These tents are well used but in great condition.  If you have any issues on the trail with a pole, rain fly, tent, you can easily get some kind of replacement.  With your own tent, you might not be as lucky.  Footprint in Campsites – Some campsites have ample camping areas, some don't.  I've been at several campsites that had limited flat camping spots.  Reduce your footprint and take less gear. Set the Example – Philmont is set up to work in buddies for meals and tents.  We had a leader one year that was a big guy, and he tented with our Scoutmaster without a problem.  You will have plenty of room to sleep.  We expect the Scouts to buddy up, as leaders we should lead by example. I've been backpacking a ton with Scouts, and I will share a tent with another adult.  Frankly, I never spend much time in my tent as I'm enjoying the trip and the awesome surroundings.  So, what did I leave out?  Feel free to disagree with my list and add your own in the comments below and make sure to subscribe on all the socials. 

Fatty's patience is tried by the technician changing his oil which least to the rest of a rough day for him.  Adding insult to injury he tries out one of the viral recipies he found on social media to less than stellar results.  Sarcastro shares that Princess Sarcastro is joining a Scouts troop which brings up some memories of when he was in another organization as a kid that had his family fostering service dogs. They also talk about being warehouse store members and what †˙ey sorf like and don't like about them. Sarcastro also tell the group about the sticker shock he received from the dealership on some maintenance and repairs to his care which also came with a sales pitch for him to trade that in for a new car.  Intro and Outro music written and performed by Andrés Rodríguez (Androzguitar)

Christina Hello, everyone, I'm Christina Darnell, the managing editor of MinistryWatch. Welcome to the MinistryWatch podcast. In today's extra episode, I talk with Warren Smith about some news items that are slightly (even significantly) outside of our normal charity and philanthropy “beat.” So, Warren, what's up first? Warren The San Francisco Chronicle has yet another article about the so-called Great Wealth Transfer. According to the article, the “term [was] popularized by a 2024 report from market research firm Cerulli Associates. The broad idea is that, over the next two decades, as baby boomers journey to the great postwar subdivision in the sky, they will bequeath $124 trillion in assets — leaving $105 trillion to their children and $18 trillion to charities.” Christina You said this was “yet” another article. Do you think this story is overblown? Warren If you detect a bit of weariness in my tone, it is not because I don't believe in the Great Wealth Transfer. It is coming, but it is always coming. It is not an event. It's a process. A generation doesn't die in a day, or a year. It dies over the course of a generation, and as long as the population and the economy keep growing, EVERY generation's wealth will be greater than the previous generation. That's the simple logic of the situation, but journalists breathlessly try to turn the Great Wealth Transfer into news every few months. Christina That said, you are here promoting the story and the idea yourself. Warren Touche! The Chronicle article is interesting, and I recommend it.

Christina Warren, you've said that one of the most persistent myths in Christian world is the myth that the ranks of the Catholic Church is swelling with ex-evangelicals. Warren It's not happening. Data guru Ryan Burge has pointed out that when there's movement, it's more often from Catholic to evangelical. Burge this week published a treasure trove of data from Detroit Catholics that further documents the decline of Catholicism in the U.S. Among his observations: “In 2011, the average weekend Mass attendance in the archdiocese was about 231,000 people. That dropped below 200,000 by 2015, it declined to 163,000 by 2019. The most recent data that these workbooks provide is from 2024, when Mass attendance was just under 140,000. According to their own reports, the Catholic Church in Detroit is recording an attendance decline of 4% per year.” Christina A lot of folks might say that Detroit is an anomaly. It's been a city in decline. Warren That's a myth, too. And if you are thinking, “Yeah, well, that's Detroit. The city is dying.” Burge says that's an old narrative. The population of Detroit rose during that same period. Christina A headline in The Jerusalem Post grabbed your attention this week. Warren It did. That headline is: “Why 800 million Evangelical Christians stand with Israel in an age of rising antisemitism.” It grabbed me because there are nowhere near 800 million evangelicals in the world. The most respected source for global Christian demographics is the Center for the Study of Global Christianity. It puts the number at around 400 million. Christina Well, maybe that headline was the product of an over-zealous headline writer. Warren I thought that too. Then I read the first line of the editorial, by Greg Denham, pastor of Rise Church in San Marcos, California and the founder of the Pastors Alliance for Israel. The headline merely echoed the first sentence in his essay: “At a time of rising anti-Israel sentiment, anti-Zionism, and antisemitism, it is worth asking why nearly 800 million Evangelical Christians continue to stand firmly with the nation of Israel.” It is a good question. It would be a better question if he got his facts right. That might cause readers to care more about his answer. Christina While we're on the subject, a new survey indicates Americans are souring on Israel. Warren The most recent of Pew Research survey, unveiled on Thursday, July 9, found that most U.S. adults – 62 percent — now view the Israeli government unfavorably, a nearly 20-point shift from 2022, when only 43 percent said the same. By the way, I'm a big supporter of Israel. I've visited there twice. But if you don't think recent events in the Middle East aren't having a major impact on the world's opinion of Israel, you're not paying attention. Christina Warren, I know you're a history buff, and you noted in your “Signs and Wonders” column this week that last week was John Calvin's birthday. He was born on July 9, 1509. Warren He wrote the first draft of his book Institutes of the Christian Religion when he was 26 years old. Many people marvel that he wrote a book that helped change the course of history at such a young age. But he revised it regularly over the years, and the version we read today is a version he published at age 50. This work was significant in shaping Protestant theology and was initially published in Latin while he was in exile in Basel, Switzerland. Christina Warren, let's close today with a recent column by Aaron Renn about the Boy Scouts of America. Warren The Boy Scouts of America, one of the great institutions of civil society in the history of this country, is now a shell of its former self, and its prospects are not bright. For an up-to-date assessment of what is happening with what is now called Scouting America, I recommend Aaron Renn's recent column, which you can find here. A preview: “The Scouts have responded by doing basically what mainline Protestantism and any number of other institutions did. It evacuated its traditional religious core, adopted standard issue liberal positions du jour, and started allowing girls to join (in the way the mainlines allowed female clergy). This isn't likely to work out any better for them than it did for the mainline churches.” Christina Any closing thoughts before we go?

Patrick K. O'Donnell, guest author, introduces Captain John Charles Carpenter and the origins of the Jesse Scouts, a Union special operations group formed in Missouri in 1861. Named after Jesse Fremont, wife of General John C. Fremont, these scouts utilized 21st-century tradecraft, such as wearing Confederate uniforms to infiltrate enemy lines and conduct daring reconnaissance missions at sites like Fort Donelson. Despite their tactical brilliance, the scouts often possessed a darker side involving theft and lack of discipline, leading to Carpenter being cashiered for lying and stealing. Simultaneously, the Confederacy enacted the Partisan Ranger Act to organize irregular guerrilla groups under formal military control. This era saw the rise of John Singleton Mosby, who, after an initially disastrous start as a guerrilla, redeemed himself by providing General Lee with vital intelligence regarding Union reinforcements before the Battle of Cedar Mountain. Mosby established "Mosby's Confederacy" in Northern Virginia, employing asymmetric tactics to tie down tens of thousands of Union troops who were unable to defeat his elusive rangers. While commanders like Lee and Davis remained ambivalent about the lack of discipline inherent in irregular warfare, they recognized its strategic value for a South lacking in men and material. Mosby's operations became the blueprint for modern irregular warfare, deeply supported by a local population that made the insurgency nearly impossible to suppress. The Unvanquished (1)

Patrick K. O'Donnell, guest author, recounts how, in 1863, Richard Blazer emerged as an unlikely Union hero, leading "Blazer's Scouts," also known as the Legion of Honor. A former barge driver who was often disheveled on the parade ground, Blazer possessed a unique talent for "hunting people." His unit functioned as the first modern hunter-killer team in the U.S. Army, specifically tasked with neutralizing Confederate partisans in the rugged mountains of West Virginia. Blazer integrated veterans from the Jesse Scouts and utilized their specialized tradecraft, including riding in enemy uniforms to conduct deep reconnaissance. Their primary targets were the Thurman brothers, ruthless bushwhackers who led the Thurman Rangers in attacks against Union supply lines and the vital B&O Railroad. This conflict was exceptionally brutal; the Thurmans were known for executing prisoners, which meant Blazer's men often fought with the knowledge they would not survive capture. Operating under General Averell, the scouts acted as the "eyes" of the army, conducting battlefield reconnaissance and leading raids against Confederate supply routes. Blazer's success was built on sophisticated "detective work," where he interviewed slaves, children, and civilians to build a mosaic of Confederate hiding spots. This segment highlights how the Union transitioned from standard infantry tactics to specialized counter-insurgency operations to protect the buffer zone of the newly formed state of West Virginia. The Unvanquished (2)

Patrick K. O'Donnell, guest author, details the final confrontation between Richard Blazer and Mosby's Rangers at Cabletown (or Meyerstown). After Blazer's scouts had embarrassed the Rangers twice, Mosby orchestrated a massive 300-man ambush. During a running gun battle across farmland, Lewis Powell, a Ranger known as "Terrible Powell," personally captured Blazer. The significance of Powell's role extends far beyond the battlefield; he was an operative for the Confederate Secret Service who had previously escaped Union custody in Baltimore. After delivering Blazer to a Richmond prison—likely a cover for meeting his handlers—Powell returned to "Mosby's Confederacy" briefly before "deserting" to Union lines to pose as a civilian. In reality, Powell had joined John Wilkes Booth's conspiracy to kidnap President Lincoln. The plot was a well-funded, large-scale operation involving hundreds of people and a network of safe houses. Evidence suggests that Mosby's command was aware of the kidnapping plan, as Mosby moved hundreds of men 80 miles away from his usual territory to secure the exact area of the Potomac River where the kidnappers intended to cross. This indicates that the kidnapping plot was not merely the work of a few actors but a coordinated special operation supported by the Confederate military infrastructure. Powell eventually became one of the primary Lincoln conspirators, transitioning from a feared scout to a pivotal figure in the war's final, tragic act. The Unvanquished (6)

On the afternoon of September 19, 1978, 13-year-old Carl Bridgewater set off on his usual newspaper round through the village of Wordsley in the West Midlands. A quiet, hardworking schoolboy who loved fishing, football and Scouts, Carl had only recently started earning pocket money delivering newspapers after school. With just a handful of deliveries left to make, he arrived at an isolated farmhouse where he was due to leave a paper for the older residents. He never made it home.Carl's murder shocked the UK. Detectives launched one of the largest murder investigations the Midlands had ever seen, chasing hundreds of leads, interviewing members of the criminal underworld, searching rivers for the murder weapon and offering substantial rewards for information. What followed appeared to be a major breakthrough, but the investigation would eventually become one of the most controversial in British criminal justice history.In this episode of British Murders with Stuart Blues, we examine the unsolved murder of Carl Bridgewater. We explore Carl's life and the close-knit family he left behind, the events of his final paper round, the huge police investigation that followed, the convictions of the so-called Bridgewater Four, and the extraordinary legal battle that exposed a shocking miscarriage of justice. We also look at the theories that continue to surround the case and ask the question that has remained unanswered for nearly 50 years: who really killed Carl Bridgewater?If you know something about what happened at Yew Tree Farm all those years ago, no matter how small or insignificant it might seem, it's never too late to come forward.

Key Topics: 2025 Draft Breakdown Not a single Canadian goalie drafted in the top 15 of the 2025 NHL Draft. Russia had 7 goalies drafted. Czech Republic had 6. The first Canadian goalie taken was Elliott Lennon in the 4th round, and he was US developed out of prep school. The guys break down what the numbers actually mean and what they don't. The Russian Model Russia identifies top goalies around age 11-12, places them near a developmental pathway (MHL, VHL, KHL), and brings them together for centralized camps several times a year to work on shared issues. The result is ultra-athletic goalies with a built-in pro pathway. North America has no equivalent. Goalie coaches don't collaborate. There is no standardized model. What Scouts Are Actually Buying Technique is teachable at the pro level. Athleticism, skating ability, and tracking ability are not. Scouts are drafting ceiling. That means size (6-foot-1 was reportedly the smallest goalie drafted) and raw athleticism matter more than technical polish at the draft stage. The COVID Factor The 2013 Ontario goalie birth year may be the worst in provincial history. Those kids were 8-9 years old during key development years and lost roughly a season and a half of minor hockey. This draft is the first wave. It will continue for several more years before it resolves. Sports Specialization and Burnout Jamie argues that burnout doesn't come from playing too much hockey. It comes from pressure. A kid playing summer hockey as a centerman with zero stakes is not burning out. A kid in Triple A baseball under the same win-at-all-costs pressure after eight months of Triple A hockey is burning out from the mindset, not the sport. Booge adds nuance from the applied coaching side, landing on athlete-led specialization, supported by off-ice athletic development and fun-based multi-sport activity. Over-Coaching and the "Science" Trend Both coaches push back on the trend of over-analyzing goalie mechanics with biomechanical tools and angle measurements on video. Buj example: a goalie with a blocker foot slightly behind him. The fix was a simple feel-based cue. "Push your blocker foot forward. It'll feel weird. That's fine." Solved in one rep. No iPad required. The concern is analysis paralysis and coaching athletes out of their natural feel. There is also a pointed critique of making "silly" warm-up drills appear scientific for content performance. Goalie Power Skating Jamie has brought in a dedicated power skating coach for his goalie group. The result: outside edge work that exposes how over-coached most older goalies are on inversion and inside edges. The younger goalies pick it up easier. The 15-17 year olds struggle and resist. Outside edge development gets a strong endorsement for long-term skating quality and puck retrieval ability. Pad Stiffness and Glove Angle Parting shot hot take: if you are not a fast, flexible lateral skater, you should not be in a soft pad. Soft pads require the athlete to control rebounds. Stiff pads do it for you. Match equipment to your athletic profile, not brand preference. Glove break angle deserves the same consideration.

Patrick K. O'Donnell highlights Harry Harrison Young, a fearless commander who led the Jesse Scouts as a strategic asset for Phil Sheridan in 1865. Disguised in Confederate uniforms, these scouts provided real-time intelligence and delivered critical messages to Grant while evading enemy patrols. They played a pivotal role in the Battle of Five Forks, finding weak points that allowed Sheridan to break Lee's lines. By intercepting orders and capturing supply trains, the scouts crippled Lee's logistics, forcing a premature evacuation of Richmond and setting the stage for the final retreat to Appomattox. (7)1865

Patrick K. O'Donnell describes how Ulysses S. Grant ordered Phil Sheridan to wage total war in the Shenandoah Valley, commanding the execution of Mosby's men and the destruction of crops. Although Sheridan moderated these orders due to political optics, he deployed Richard Blazer and his Scouts—armed with rapid-fire Spencer carbines—to hunt Mosby. The conflict turned brutal, involving ruthless figures like the bushwhacker Mobberly. At Kabletown, Mosby finally eliminated the threat by ambushing and capturing Blazer. One of Mosby's rangers, the lethal Lewis Powell, was tasked with escorting the captured Blazer to Richmond. (5)1865

Patrick K. O'Donnell introduces Captain John Charles Carpenter and the Jesse Scouts, a Union special forces group named after Jesse Frémont. Emerging from the Missouri insurgency, these scouts utilized 21st-century tradecraft such as disguises and infiltration to gather intelligence behind enemy lines. Simultaneously, the Confederacy enacted the Partisan Ranger Act to organize irregular fighters like John Singleton Mosby. Operating in "Mosby's Confederacy," these rangers conducted asymmetrical warfare that tied down thousands of Union troops. Both sides grappled with the lack of discipline in these units, yet recognized their strategic brilliance in modern irregular combat. (1)1863

Patrick K. O'Donnell details the exploits of Richard Blazer, the brilliant leader of the Blazer Scouts, the Union's first modern hunter-killer team. Operating in the rugged terrain of West Virginia, Blazer utilized detective work and lightning raids to hunt Confederate partisans. His primary adversaries were the Thurman brothers, ruthless "bushwhackers" who targeted Union supply lines and often executed prisoners. Under General Averell, Blazer's team integrated tradecraft from the Jesse Scouts to protect vital B&O railroad lines and conduct crucial battlefield reconnaissance to support Union Army raids against Confederate logistics.

Are you building a champion — or just chasing a trophy? In this episode of Winners Find A Way, Coach Trent M. Clark sits down with John O'Sullivan, author, speaker, and founder of Changing the Game Project — one of the most influential voices in youth sports development today. John is a former Division I soccer player at Fordham University, a master's-level researcher, and the author of five books on youth sports, coaching, and athlete leadership. His work has been recognized by the US Olympic Committee and major sport governing bodies around the world. He co-hosts the Way of Champions podcast with Jerry Lynch — nearly 500 episodes with guests like Phil Jackson and Steve Kerr — and his latest book, Captain: The Athlete's Guide to Being an Exceptional Team Leader, is now available everywhere. This conversation covers the full landscape of what it actually takes to develop athletes — and what so many coaches and parents get wrong. John and Trent dig into the difference between information and knowledge, why curiosity is the number one trait of elite coaches, and how the "me culture" of college sports is trickling down to youth programs. They talk about parents, pressure, social media, NIL, and the moment a coach stops talking to an athlete — and what that silence really means. This episode is a reminder that winners are not people who never face setbacks. Winners are the ones who learn, adjust, lead, and find a way. In This Episode, We Discuss: Why the best coaches in the world share one common trait — curiosity What John's new book Captain teaches athletes about leading from any position How the "me culture" in college sports trickles down and why kids struggle to transition to team-first environments What scouts actually ask about when they watch your kid play The real role of parents in youth sports — and how to be the fan your child needs Why coachability is a decision, not a personality trait The inner voice: how to train the coach inside your head Individual sports vs. team sports — and why every athlete should experience both Key Takeaways ✨ Curiosity is the common denominator of elite coaches John has interviewed Hall of Famers, Olympians, and championship coaches for nine years. Every single one is still curious. The ones who plateau decided they already know everything. ✨ Great teammates are always in demand Scouts don't just watch the stats. They ask: How does this kid treat the worst player on the team? Character traits like humility, coachability, and selflessness are skills — and they carry into every team you'll ever be part of. ✨ When a coach stops talking to you, the end is near Coaches invest their energy where it counts. Three "yeah buts" and they redirect to athletes who are coachable and worth the oxygen. ✨ Train the voice in your head The late Jim Lehr said it best: the most influential coach in your life is the voice inside your head. If that voice was a person, would you be friends with them? ✨ Begin with the end in mind Before signing your kid up for a travel team, ask: What do I actually want sports to give them? Then find a coach and program that builds those things.

Along the way, he reflects on the family-oriented culture that has helped Vintage Air grow from fewer than 30 employees to nearly 160 today. The discussion explores how technology has transformed both the company and the hobby itself. Rick explains how 3D scanning, CAD design, rapid prototyping, and Gen V climate control systems have dramatically improved product development while making modern air conditioning easier than ever to integrate into classic cars. From Tri-Five Chevys and Camaros to Japanese imports, Broncos, Scouts, and custom one-off builds, Vintage Air continues expanding its offerings to meet the evolving needs of enthusiasts. Rick also shares his thoughts on AI, tariffs, SEMA's ongoing legislative efforts to protect automotive enthusiasts, and the growing market for reproduction vehicles and low-volume production cars. Whether you're restoring a classic, building a pro-touring machine, or simply enjoy hearing stories from one of the hobby's most respected leaders, this episode offers a fascinating look at where the automotive aftermarket has been—and where it's headed next. The post TMCP #651 – Rick Love on 50 Years of Vintage Air, Hot Rod Innovation & the Future of the Hobby first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Patrick K. O'Donnell recounts how in late summer 1944, the Rangers were assigned to assist in capturing the port of Brest, a fortress Hitler ordered to be held at all costs. During a scouting mission, Lieutenant Edlund and three scouts discovered a narrow path through a massive minefield filled with "Bouncing Bettys." Edlund bluffed his way into the command bunker of a major German gun battery, which housed battleship-sized 12-inch guns. Once inside, he threatened the commanding officer with a hand grenade, vowing to blow them both up unless the entire fort surrendered. His audacity worked, and over 200 Germans surrendered the battery without a fight, earning Edlund the Distinguished Service Cross. Following the fall of Brest, the Rangers were moved to the Hürtgen Forest, a location described as a "factory of death." The forest was a nightmare of dense mines, bunkers, and pre-registered artillery fire. American command made the strategic error of attempting to push through the forest rather than bypassing it, resulting in casualties comparable to the entire Korean War. By December, the Rangers were held in reserve near the town of Bergstein. Their objective was Hill 400, the highest point in the forest, which provided a commanding view of the entire region. Unbeknownst to the Allies, the Germans defended the hill with fanaticism because it overlooked the secret assembly areas for Hitler's planned Ardennes Offensive, the Battle of the Bulge. (5)1944
