In Detroit, loving the Lions has rarely been about winning. For author, comedian and Motor City native Joel Walkowski, it became something much deeper: a family inheritance, a language shared with his father, and eventually a way to understand his own struggles with addiction, recovery, disappointment and resilience. Walkowski's engaging new book, "Honolulu Blues: How Loving a Losing Football Team Created a Winning Man," weaves the tortured history of the NFL's Detroit Lions into an intensely personal story about what it means to keep showing up when life — or your football team — refuses to cooperate. Walkowski grew up almost in sync with Barry Sanders, whose first NFL game fell on Joel's third birthday. Trips to the Silverdome with his Lions-obsessed father came with elaborate rituals, while the franchise itself supplied an endless procession of near-misses, bizarre defeats and organizational dysfunction. As Joel's own life began to unravel, the parallels became uncanny: the Matt Millen-era Lions bottomed out at 0-16 as his addiction deepened; Matthew Stafford's arrival coincided with the slow process of becoming functional again; and the Dan Campbell/Jared Goff revival unfolded alongside Joel's more serious work in recovery. This week, Walkowski joins to explore why Barry Sanders became something of a personal "higher power," why generations of Lions fans learned to expect heartbreak, and how football became the connective tissue between father and son. Most poignantly, he recounts watching Detroit's long-awaited 2023 playoff breakthrough while caring for his dying father — and discovering that after a lifetime spent waiting for the Lions to win, perhaps the real payoff had been there all along. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK: "Honolulu Blues: How Loving a Losing Football Team Created a Winning Man": https://amzn.to/4gGRKRM SPONSOR THANKS: Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.royalretros.com/?ref=SEATS Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/
Five years after the bombing at Abbey Gate, 13 Gold Star families are still waiting for a real, bipartisan accounting of what happened during the withdrawal from Afghanistan — and of the two decades of war that led to it. Paul Rieckhoff sits down with Connell McShane on News Nation for the weekly Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Wednesday hit and refuses to let the anniversary pass as another partisan food fight. He walks through what he calls the great American betrayal of Afghanistan, the Afghan allies still hung out to dry at home and abroad, and why an honest after-action review matters more than another round of finger-pointing. From there, the conversation pivots to the story the legacy media keeps missing: independents are now the plurality in sixteen states, roughly 48% of the country, while Republicans and Democrats sit at 27% each. Ten thousand Americans leave the two parties every single week. Paul breaks down the new farm team of independent veteran candidates — Todd Achilles up 5 on Jim Risch in Idaho, Seth Bodnar in Montana, competitive races in Nebraska and South Dakota — and explains why a single independent win in November could break the logjam the way Joe Manchin, Angus King, and Jesse Ventura have shown is possible. This is the map of the movement the MAGA machine and the DNC both want you to ignore. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Millions of American veterans are being locked out of primary elections in the country they served.

Have you ever wondered what your award search tool can see that you can't? My guest this week is Keith Van, who leads community at Seats.aero, one of the award search platforms I reach for most. What made this so fun for me is that his team sees something the rest of us never do. They can watch how travelers everywhere are searching for award space all at once, which means they notice patterns in demand and in availability that none of us could piece together alone, and a few of the ones Keith shared upended assumptions I didn't know I was holding. We also get into the part of these tools that trips people up the most, the gap between what a search shows you and what you can book right now, and how to protect yourself before you move your points. And Keith pulls back the curtain on how a platform like this works, from why it can see some airlines and not others to the features longtime users walk right past. Whether you've never opened an award search tool or you consider yourself a power user, I think you'll finish this one seeing these platforms, and the data underneath them, differently.

Long before ESPN's SportsCenter became a cultural institution, Fred Hickman was helping define what sports television could be. One of the fledgling Cable News Network's original on-air personalities, Hickman became nationally known alongside Nick Charles on CNN Sports Tonight, where "Nick and Hick" paired serious sports journalism with an easy, conversational chemistry that made the nightly highlights feel both authoritative and welcoming. Their signature "Play of the Day" became so recognizable that, as the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, a viewer in Germany held up a bedsheet urging Fred to make a united Germany that night's selection — a wonderfully improbable measure of the show's massive reach and influence. This week, we revisit Hickman's remarkable life with journalist Harrison Golden, co-author of the posthumously published memoir "Channeling: My Life On Air, Off Air, and In Living Color." Golden first knew Hickman as a kid watching Yankees coverage on the newly launched YES Network, then encountered him years later while interviewing for a local television job in Baton Rouge. The two became colleagues and friends, and after Hickman was diagnosed with terminal cancer, he entrusted Golden with helping preserve the story he wanted to leave behind. Our conversation follows Hickman from his hometown Springfield, Illinois, to CNN's improvisational early days; the rise and enduring bond of "Nick and Hick"; Hickman's harrowing struggle with cocaine addiction in Detroit and the second chance that brought him back to Turner HQ in Atlanta; the explosive growth and eventual fragmentation of cable sports; and later chapters at YES, ESPN and beyond. We also revisit Hickman's pioneering importance as one of the first Black sportscasters with sustained national visibility — and, of course, his infamous first-place vote for Allen Iverson in 2000 that kept Shaquille O'Neal from becoming the NBA's first unanimous Most Valuable Player that year. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK: "Channeling: My Life On Air, Off Air, and In Living Color": https://amzn.to/4ghFCIg SPONSOR THANKS: Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.royalretros.com/?ref=SEATS Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

For decades, Renée Richards lived with an intensely private struggle over her gender identity while building an accomplished life as an athlete, physician, husband and father. Through it all, tennis remained one of the few constants. Before transitioning in the mid-1970s, Richards - then known as Richard "Dick" Raskind - had been a gifted amateur tennis player, Yale graduate, Navy veteran and successful ophthalmologist. But beneath those achievements was a lifelong conflict Richards later described as a battle between "Dick" and "Renée," one she tried unsuccessfully to resolve through years of psychoanalysis before ultimately deciding to live as a woman. After transitioning, Richards moved to Southern California and returned to competitive tennis, this time in women's events. When her previous identity became public in 1976, a deeply personal journey suddenly became an international sports controversy. Tennis officials required Richards to pass a chromosome test to enter major women's tournaments; she refused, setting off a remarkable legal battle that included an unlikely attorney in Roy Cohn, critical support from Billie Jean King and a landmark 1977 court victory allowing her to compete in the U.S. Open. Sports journalist Julie Kliegman joins the podcast this week to tell Richards' extraordinary and often misunderstood story through her new biography, "Finding Renée Richards: The Groundbreaking Story of Tennis's Trans Pioneer." Kliegman takes us through Richards' long path toward transition, the media frenzy and cultural backlash that followed, her professional tennis career (including a 1978 turn with World Team Tennis' peripatetic New Orleans Sun Belt Nets), and later work with Martina Navratilova - as well as Richards' complicated reassessment of the very fight that made her a historic figure. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK: "Finding Renée Richards: The Groundbreaking Story of Tennis's Trans Pioneer": https://amzn.to/45slUTV SPONSOR THANKS: Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.royalretros.com/?ref=SEATS Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

As the Leaders Week London agenda goes live, James Emmett and David Cushnan are in the studio to predict what might be the big talking points when global sport does business this October at Stamford Bridge. The prospect of a contested Fifa Presidential election makes the list, as Gianni Infantino battles on and three confederations - Uefa, CONCACAF and the AFC - seek a challenger.There's time too to consider VPN sponsorships in football and the number of empty seats at some sports venues this summer - is it misjudged pricing and is the UK market starting to see the impact of less disposable income for households?And there's chance to look back at how the business of MotoGP has evolved, building on this week's interview with Carlos Ezpeleta, the motorcycling series' Chief Sporting Officer and new team CEO and Co-owner Guenther Steiner, as US know-how meets Spanish roots under Liberty Media's new ownership.-----Gary Lineker, Alexis Ohanian and Lego CMO Julia Goldin lead the line-up for Leaders Week London, at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday 7th and Thursday 8th October.

Boxer Michael Spinks was one of the most accomplished fighters of his generation, even if his career has never received quite the recognition it deserves. A gold medalist at the 1976 Montreal Olympics, Spinks became the dominant light heavyweight of his era before doing what no reigning light heavyweight champion had ever done: move up and defeat the heavyweight champion, upsetting the unbeaten Larry Holmes in 1985 and beating him again the following year. Yet for many casual sports fans, Spinks is remembered less for everything he accomplished than for the 91 seconds it took Mike Tyson to knock him out in their massive 1988 "Once and For All" showdown. That loss became the final fight of Spinks' career, obscuring a remarkable body of work that legendary boxing writer Jack Hirsch believes deserves far greater historical appreciation. Hirsch joins the show to discuss his newly published authorized biography of Spinks ("Michael 'Jinx' Spinks: An Authorized Biography"), and the fascinating life behind the fighter: his unlikely path from Olympic champion to reluctant professional, his complicated relationship with promoter Butch Lewis, his historic victories over Holmes, the circumstances surrounding the Tyson fight, and the financial turmoil that emerged years after his retirement. We also explore Spinks' famously low-key personality, his relationship with brother Leon, and why Hirsch places Michael firmly among boxing's all-time greats — even if the wider sporting public has never quite given him his due. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK: "Michael 'Jinx' Spinks: An Authorized Biography": https://amzn.to/4xs4dQ5 SPONSOR THANKS: Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.royalretros.com/?ref=SEATS Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

Raul's story is proof that the struggle isn't a sign you're failing — it might just be the price of building something real.Sales SOPs. KPI tracking. Job profitability. Getting financing-ready.

Singapore Airlines is also restricting award searches, with people unable to search without miles or recent activity and no public explanation, almost certainly an attempt to stop bots and scraping, and we get into why that is a frustrating way to treat customers whose miles mostly come from credit card transfers anyway. American Airlines is aligning its 24 hour cancellation policy with the federal minimum, dropping from a 48 hour window to the legal 168 hours, though award tickets are unaffected. On the tools side, point.me added map area pricing, points balance valuations, and side by side flight comparisons, and we talk through how point.me, Seats.aero, and PointsPath each fit differently into an award search routine. Shawn also recaps an impromptu Disneyland trip with two Hyatt Regency stays, including a category one through four cert on a $400 room and a night that cost 20,000 points against a $120 cash rate, plus why hotel parking fees have quietly doubled everywhere.

CMS's efforts to crush fraud in the hospice space have commanded the headlines and the attention of many. Less publicized efforts on behalf of hospices in the federal courts, however, have resulted in several rulings favoring hospices. In particular, the federal courts are starting to recognize that hospices deserve the benefit of the doubt when it comes to prognosticating a six-month life expectancy. In this episode, Bryan Nowicki talks with Joe Diedrich and Zaina Niles about those court cases and what they mean for the hospice community.

Your plate is already full: big God-given dreams, a business to run, people who count on you... not one spare minute for something new that sounds hard. And that's what keeps you stuck: the sense that eating plant-based will be one more hard, time-draining thing piled onto an already full schedule. In this episode, Jarrod and Anita dismantle that lie, sharing the way whole food plant-based eating is not hard, and how getting back to God's original design can actually hand you back the very time you're afraid of losing.The enemy keeps telling you God's ways are hard, and yet it's man's ways that are keeping you exhausted.With wisdom rooted in Scripture and the simple, step-by-step approach that has helped busy kingdom-minded business owners finally make healthy stick, Jarrod and Anita walk you through why the simple path is the one God laid out from the very beginning.

Award-winning documentary filmmaker Chris Farina, in 2016, began work on a new project with the working title “Death Becomes You,” with the idea of tackling what is very much a taboo subject: death. For obvious reasons, we don't like talking about it – death – because, while it's inevitable, it's, you know, it's death, the end. The film, as he envisioned it, at the outset, would have Farina, a 1982 UVA alum, speaking with funeral directors, hospice workers, grief counselors – people whose jobs bring them into daily contact with that which the rest of us don't want to think about, much less base our lives around. The goal: to get us thinking, get us talking, and maybe edge us toward accepting death as a natural part of life. Then, as happens, life intervened. First, it was other projects – “Seats at the Table,” a documentary on a class taught by UVA lecturer Andrew Kaufman that brought together university students with residents of a maximum-security juvenile correctional center through the study of Russian literature; “Pep Banned,” a doc on the rise and fall of the irreverant University of Virginia Pep Band; “A Bridge to Life,” which tells the story of The Bridge Ministry, a Buckingham County-based ministry that works to save lives of men dealing with serious addiction issues. Then, the intervention was, life itself. Farina was diagnosed with ALS in 2022. How you can help Rosalia Films is currently raising funds to support the film's release to create significant social impact. A generous donor is matching every dollar raised up to $35,000, meaning roughly $5,000 more in new donations would trigger the full match. The goal is to raise the funds quickly, so the film can be shared while Chris is here to see it happen.

Before Tiger Woods transformed golf, before Charley Sifford broke the PGA Tour's color barrier, there was Ted Rhodes — a remarkably gifted player whose career unfolded largely outside the spotlight because the game itself refused to let him in. This week, return guest Dan Taylor joins to discuss his new book, "Out of the Rough: Ted Rhodes And His Fight Against Golf's Color Barrier," the remarkable story of one of the greatest golfers most sports fans have never heard of. From humble beginnings in segregated Nashville to competing against the game's biggest names, Rhodes spent decades proving his talent while confronting the barriers that kept Black golfers from the highest levels of the sport. Taylor also explores the vital role of the United Golf Association, the organization that created competitive opportunities for Black golfers during an era when mainstream golf remained largely closed to them. Together, Rhodes and the UGA tell a story that extends far beyond fairways and scorecards, revealing an overlooked chapter in both golf history and the broader struggle for civil rights. Along the way, we examine Rhodes' friendship with boxing legend Joe Louis, his influence on future pioneers including Charley Sifford and Lee Elder, and why even Tiger Woods recognized Rhodes as one of the figures who helped make his own historic success possible. + + + SUPPORT THE SHOW: Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK: "Out of the Rough: Ted Rhodes And His Fight Against Golf's Color Barrier": https://link.amazon/B011VTLCa SPONSOR THANKS: Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.royalretros.com/?ref=SEATS Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

In this episode, we introduce Camden Bucey's new book, Defending Our Hope: An Introduction to Christian Apologetics, and trace its development from an adult Sunday school class at Hope Presbyterian Church to a twelve-lesson Reformed Academy course and now a beautiful hardcover volume. Camden and Ryan Noha explain why the book is intended as an accessible on-ramp to a distinctly Reformed approach—one grounded in the doctrines of God, revelation, and humanity rather than an imagined realm of neutral reasoning.The conversation returns again and again to the living hope of 1 Peter 1:3 and the call of 1 Peter 3:15. Christian apologetics is not chiefly about winning arguments or mastering a script; it is about bearing faithful witness to Jesus Christ, who lived, died, and rose for our salvation. Because the power belongs to God and works through his Word, ordinary believers can speak the truth in love with gentleness, respect, and genuine confidence.Chapters00:00 Introduction01:04 Introducing Defending Our Hope02:12 Upcoming Reformed Forum events04:03 The story behind the book04:28 The book and course as an accessible on-ramp07:58 Formed through the local church13:28 Apologetics in the community21:57 Friendship, community, and everyday witness24:31 Ordinary Christians and the hope within us27:09 The apologetic context of 1 Peter 3:1530:04 Always prepared—with gentleness and respect31:37 The living hope of resurrection33:39 Apologetics and evangelism34:39 Why doctrine determines apologetic method41:28 Scripture as the self-attesting Word of God50:09 Starting anywhere in God's world52:36 Faithful witnesses who tell the truth60:56 Using the book with the free Reformed Academy course62:30 Further study and ordering information65:42 Closing remarksResourcesEpisode resources and Defending Our HopeFree Reformed Academy course: Defending Our HopeReformed Forum bookstoreMentioned in this episode:Join Us In Person: Four Upcoming Reformed Forum EventsBefore today's episode, Camden Bucey shares four opportunities to gather with Reformed Forum in person over the coming months: Apologetics and Evangelism Seminar — August 4–5, 2026, Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Taylors, SC.

Maybe you talk yourself out of the first class seat. Maybe your daughter asks for the nail design, and you hear yourself say "that's a waste of money" in a voice that isn't even yours. That is money having power over you instead of you having power over money. And there is always a pattern underneath it. In this episode, I break down the pattern, the core wound sitting below it, and why it usually traces back to abandonment. I share the story of a woman in my Millionaire Club who just hit her highest cash month ever at $133,000 and still couldn't bring herself to buy the dream home she can easily afford. I read you the post from a local moms group that made every scarcity belief in the comments section visible. And I tell you about the $295,000 G Wagon I paid cash for in 2022 when everyone said I was crazy, and what happened to my money after. In this episode: Why the fear of "wasting" money has nothing to do with money The core wound underneath the justify-every-purchase pattern Why a million dollar home and a $15 nail design carry the exact same weight when you have this pattern How playing it safe with money guarantees your money stays exactly where it is The first $3,000 investment that terrified me, and how I got to $25,000 a month in mentorship Why abundance consciousness expands and lack consciousness expands too, so choose The moment I asked my own mother to never tell me not to waste my money again The worst kind of broke you could ever be is to have the money and not be able to enjoy it. There is another way, and it is so much more fun. Ready to break your pattern?

More importantly, we cover the three things that catch normal people who are not doing anything extreme, bust out risk on a brand new card, credit limit cycling, and sitting on a massive negative balance. Alaska Atmos also added Philippine Airlines as a partner, and business class availability is wide open at 75,000 miles from San Francisco and 85,000 from Los Angeles, though we get into why Manila is a rough connection point and not really a jumping off spot for the rest of Asia. Seats.aero shipped a Chrome extension that overlays award pricing directly onto Google Flights, and it works well right out of the box. We close with Hilton cutting the fees hotel owners pay, which sounds small at 0.3 percent but is a real chunk of what they collect, and explain why less money coming into the program almost always means devaluations for you.

Is the 2026 Volkswagen Jetta GLI the last great affordable sports sedan? On this week's episode, we debate whether Volkswagen's final manual-transmission sedan is destined to become a future classic—or if the DSG automatic is actually the better buy. We break down the GLI's turbocharged performance, handling, ride comfort, practicality, and why it may be one of the best cars left to learn stick shift. Plus, we answer audience questions about the best used manual cars for beginners and whether driving a stick can actually make teen drivers safer.
