Podcasts about sport studies

I'm delighted to speak with Ben Ashdown this week. Ben is joined by return guest, Dr Mustafa Sarkar. Ben is a senior lecturer in Sport and Exercise Psychology at Nottingham Trent University. He is part of the Sport Performance Research Group in the Sport, Health and Performance Enhancement (SHAPE) Research Centre and is a PhD researcher focusing on resilience in youth football. Ben's research interests are observational methods and assessment in sport psychology, resilience behaviours in youth football and resilience development practices. Before moving into lecturing, Ben was a research associate at The University of Nottingham on the Steps to Active Kids (STAK) project that sought to evaluate the impact of a school-based physical activity programme on outcomes including self-efficacy and obesity risk factors. Ben is a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and has a Postgraduate diploma in teaching in the lifelong learning sector. After graduating from York St John University on a BA (Honours) degree in Sport Studies and Psychology, Ben completed an MSc in Sport Psychology at the same institution. Mustafa is Associate Professor of Sport and Performance Psychology at Nottingham Trent University. His main area of research is on individual, team and organisational resilience in elite sport. Mustafa has a background in teaching and research with most of his research focusing on the psychology of sporting and performance excellence, specifically looking at resilience in high achievers in sport and business. Mustafa also works with coaches and organisations helping them to develop resilience in athletes and teams. We talk about a brilliant paper led by Ben and co-authored by Mustafa and Dr Chris Saward and Dr Julie Johnston entitled “Exploring the behavioral indicators of resilience in professional academy youth soccer”. The study offers insight into the observable behaviours characterising resilience in youth soccer. Participants identified 36 resilience behaviours, highlighting the multifaceted nature of the concept in this specific context. The results provide a platform to support practitioners in observing resilience behaviours and structuring practices for resilience assessment and development. The findings of this study can support youth soccer players in reflecting on their behavioural responses to in-game stressors, and thus better understand how and when they demonstrate resilience.

Damiano Crognali racconta il calcio nei paesi del Golfo, diventato sempre più una leva sociale ed economica.Isole esotiche chiamano Italia: in Micronesia e Maldive si vorrebbe giocare a calcio, chi porta la palla? Ne parliamo con il fisico della materia Giulio Biddau, che sta cercando di far ripartire il calcio in Micronesia, e con Moreno Maitini, travel designer che ha donato palloni e divise alla squadra di calcio dell'isola di Keyodhoo. L’emigrazione dei calciatori africani cela un business oscuro gestito spesso da trafficanti senza scrupoli, contraddistinto da corruzione e sfruttamento. Accanto a poche storie di successo, ci sono miriadi di casi che non fanno notizia e che mostrano come ancora oggi l'Africa sia visto come un continente da depredare. Ospite Raffaele Poli, fondatore e capo dell'Osservatorio sul calcio del CIES - International Center for Sport Studies, ricercatore e docente all'università di Neuchâtel, in Svizzera. Renzo Vergnani, già CT della Nazionale amputati, racconta "Bimbi Sperduti", un'associazione sportiva dilettantistica inclusiva per bambini amputati e cerebrolesi.

Ongoing debates about how digital technologies impact children's health and well-being often frame sports as the opposite  or even antidote to sedentary screen time. For centuries, children's sports have served as a symbol of a “good” childhood -- one that privileges some children while historically excluding many others, especially girls, Black children, and children of colour. In this episode, Dr. Sara Grimes (Director of the KMDI) chats with Dr. Samantha White, Assistant Professor of Sport Studies at Manhattanville College (New York), about her work on children's sporting cultures at the intersection of race and gender, and how mapping the history and politics of children and sports is crucial for understanding contemporary ideas about childhood. The discussion focuses on two of Dr. White's recent articles, “Ebony Jr! and the Black Athlete: Meritocracy, Sport, and African-American Children's Media” (Journal of Sport History, 2020), and “Black Girls Swim: Race, Gender, and Embodied Aquatic Histories” (Girlhood Studies, 2021). Type of research discussed in today's episode: sports studies; historical research; archival research; textual/media analysis; communication studies; Black studies; gender studies; children's studies.Keywords for today's episode: Black girl athletes; child athletes; children's sporting culture; media representation; meritocracy; spectacular sports; embodied respectability.For more information and a full transcript of each episode, check out our website: http://kmdi.utoronto.ca/the-critical-technology-podcast/Send questions or comments to: criticaltechpod.kmdi@utoronto.ca

For episode 19, 2014 Springfield College alumnus, and 2013 157lb Division III National Champion, Devin Biscaha joins the PrideCast! Despite a lack of competition entering the postseason of his junior year, Devin managed to navigate a seemingly insurmountable national bracket where he was an unseeded wrestler that knocked off No. 6 seed Reece Lefever of Wabash, No. 3 seed Cole Welter of Wartburg, No. 2 seed Chris Burdge of Centenary, and No. 4 seed, Kris Krawchuk of Wilkes to capture gold. Devin is a Jackson, N.J. native and a 2010 graduate of perennial powerhouse Jackson Memorial High School. With the Jags, Biscaha was part of a contingent that was the No. 1 team in New Jersey in 2007, and consistently ranked in the top 10 in the state during his high school career. Biscaha was the first Springfield wrestler to compete in the national championship bout since John Roden was the national runner up at 174 in 2000. Biscaha became Springfield Wrestling's first ever NCAA Division III title and only second national champ in the program's long history next to Olympic gold medalist and the late Jeff Blatnick '79, who won a pair of NCAA Division II national titles at heavyweight in 1978 and 1979. After graduating from Springfield with a bachelor's degree in Movement and Sport Studies, Biscaha began his coaching career as an Assistant Coach at Powerhouse Christiansburg High School in Christiansburg, Virginia. While on staff, Biscaha helped lead Christiansburg to 3 team state titles, two team state runner-up finishes, coached 11 individual state champions that combined for 19 titles, and coached 20 state placewinners. He recently returned to his hometown of Jackson, New Jersey where he is now the head coach at Jackson Liberty High School. Following Devin's title run, Springfield finished 8th in Cedar Rapids, Iowa at the 2013 Division III tournament. It was the highest team finish for the Pride since the 1998 team took seventh. Alongside Bischaha, Derek Adams and Joe Grippi wrapped up their seasons by earning All-America honors. This is the first time since 1999 that Springfield has produced three All-Americans. That year, Mike Gaydos (197-6th), Craig Vedrani (157-6th), and John Roden (174-4th) all took home the national honor.

She began her career as a college and university professor in Kinesiology and Sport Studies specializing in Adapted Physical Education and has been building solutions that meet the physical, cognitive, social and emotional needs of every person. Brandi utilizes the power of play to navigate diversity, inclusion, change management, self-care, and mental and physical health. She reveals how play is the catalyst to igniting and developing innovation and productivity and the foundation of moving from diversity to belonging. People and organizations that can play in both times of challenge and success will flourish because they have learned how to build from the unexpected and unknown, a skill built first in play.Can play be the answer to our most complex social challenges of the 21st century? Play is when we are most open to taking risks because we feel our most capable and confident. In these moments, we are in a state of self-discovery and expression.

In this episode of The End of Sport Nathan and Johanna speak with Dr. Lucía Trimbur, an Associate Professor of Sociology and American Studies at John Jay College and the Graduate Center at the City University of New York and a Global Fellow at the University of Edinburgh. Dr. Trimbur talked with us about her forthcoming ethnographic work about the concussion crisis in football, and interweaves insights about her past work on boxing into an absolutely fascinating conversation. In the second of a two-part show, Dr. Trimbur dives into her recent piece for Tropics of Meta on the horrific evidence showing that the NFL used the common medical practice of ‘race norming' to alter (lower) the cognitive levels of Black football players in order to argue that their cognitive functioning levels were less impaired than that of their white counterparts, in order to exclude them from being able to claim compensation from the NFL. We moreover discussed the important issue of how difficult it was for her to find a home for this important work, as the mainstream media outlets she pitched it to were—unsurprisingly—not interested in spotlighting the work. She also walked us through her understanding of the position and function of athlete activism in Trumpist America (from this piece), and the enduring power that athletes have as demonstrated by and even beyond the NBA wildcat strikes this summer, and how more athletes should be like the WNBA players. For the remainder of the episode we discussed the growth of Sport Studies as a field (which she published an academic piece on here) and the challenges that sport scholars continue to face across different fields as some non-sport academics continue to not see our work as being valuable enough to hire into their departments. The episode concludes with an honest look at Dr. Trimbur's athletic career as a D1 college athlete and the difficulties she encountered while training as a boxer for Come Out Swinging. Dr. Trimbur's first book, Come Out Swinging: The Changing World of Boxing in Gleason's Gym can be found here.

In this episode of The End of Sport, Nathan and Johanna speak with Dr. Lucía Trimbur, an Associate Professor of Sociology and American Studies at John Jay College and the Graduate Center at the City University of New York, and a Global Fellow at the University of Edinburgh. Dr. Trimbur talked with us about her forthcoming ethnographic work about the concussion crisis in football, and interweaves insights about her past work on boxing into an absolutely fascinating conversation. In the first of a two-part episode, Dr. Trimbur walks us through her ongoing research for Lights Out: The Creation of the Concussion Crisis for Columbia University Press on the innerworkings of a football program at an un-named Ivy League school. She specifically focuses on their conversations about the concussion crisis, in terms how athletes, coaches, trainers, etc. approach the issue and calculate their daily and long-term decisions for playing the game. She also is doing research beyond the field to understand how the game, schools, and the NCAA has historically adapted to the concussion crisis in terms of rules and penalties. She moreover shared how–surprisingly to her and us—quickly the football program agreed to allow her to study them by joining their meetings, practices, games, and much more. Dr. Trimbur shared how in both her past study of Gleason's Gym for Come Out Swinging and the concussion one, people proved more than willing to share their insights and even sought out her attention and feedback at times. Stay tuned for the second part of the interview, where we talk about the harmful racial politics behind ‘race norming' in the 2015 NFL Concussion Settlement (she wrote about it here), the role of athlete-activists in Trumpist America (published about it here), the position of Sport Studies in the academy (here), and much more! Dr. Trimbur's first book, Come Out Swinging: The Changing World of Boxing in Gleason's Gym can be found here.

Do you know how powerful your voice is? I do. It means everything. Today's episode describes how Black women athletes have used their platforms to advocate for fairness and justice throughout history. Dr. Akilah Carter-Francique is visiting with us from her post at San Jose State University, where she serves as the Executive Director of the Institute for the Study of Sport, Society, and Social Change. Dr. Carter-Francique is also an Associate Professor in the African-American Studies Department there, doing storytelling, teaching, and elevating her role as an educator, scholar, and activist. Akilah's journey through sport participation forced her both to the sidelines at times while positioning her for a proverbial seat at many tables. Finally, listen for the common thread of Black women's experiences and police brutality and the rallying cry to #sayhername. I would encourage you to visit the work of Dr. Kimberlé Crenshaw, founder of the African American Policy Forum and Director of the Center for Intersectionality and Social Policy Studies, to learn more about this campaign.

History, Science, Culture. As a CULTist, that’s what you signed up for and we’ve been lax delivering the first: history. But no more! We are joined by Dr. Conor Heffernan, Assistant Professor of Physical Culture and Sport Studies at the University of Texas at Austin to discuss how vaudeville circus acts became the iron game as we know it. Learn how Eugen Sandow literally ripped off his suit to enter the world stage and reshaped the view of what strongmen looked like. Learn how bodybuilding was born of this history and what the very first shows were like. We look back with reverence, but without rose-tinted glasses, exploring surprising aspects of this history, like the legal battles and money-making schemes that look surprisingly like the fit teas of today. Know your history, or repeat the mistakes of the past dear cult.

I imagine the most challenging part of having your student-athlete leave home is hoping someone will take care of them. To say it another way, you want to hope they come back to you. Today's episode discusses medical professionals' responses in athletic spaces and the need for transparency and communication throughout the process.  Dr. Yvette Rooks is the Head Team Physician and Assistant Director of The University Health Center at the University of Maryland. She leads a team that has established a new Patient-Centered Care approach for student-athletes.  This approach eliminates the decision-making for student-athlete health and wellness from athletic department administrators and instead empowers campus health-care professionals.A daughter of an HBCU love story raised in a household of sporting tradition, Dr. Rooks has a foundation built on community, character, and courage. Her pursuit of medicine was despite heartache and loss, yet she remains committed to providing medical care for the sick and well.  Dr. Rooks offers insight on the current topics impacting young Black women student-athletes and provides insight into the role of their health insurance and the need for various medical services and service providers on college campuses.

Welcome back to How Do You Like It So Far?, listeners! Today, we’re bringing you a time capsule of an episode: We recorded today’s conversation back in April, but it’s still as relevant as ever. Just don’t mind us thinking the coronavirus pandemic will be over in a couple of weeks. The episode features Suzanne Scott, an assistant professor at the University of Texas Austin and author of Fake Geek Girls: Fandom, Gender, and the Convergence Culture Industry. She is also the co-editor of The Routledge Companion to Media Fandom, an anthology that brings together an international and interdisciplinary collection of nearly 60 established scholars to reflect on the state of the field and to point to new directions in fan studies research. Also on the episode is Susan Kresnicka, a cultural and business anthropologist and president and founder of cultural research firm Kresnicka Research and Insights (see their Human Needs Model whitepaper). Susan holds an M.A. in social anthropology from The University of Texas at Austin, sits on the professional advisory board for UCLA’s Master of Social Science program, and regularly speaks publicly on fandom, gender, morality, identity, and the value of anthropology in business. In the episode, Susan and Suzanne lead us through a discussion of how we define the word “fan” and who it applies to. Then, we discuss the relationship between fandom and industry: How do industry choices shape whose voices matter in fandom? How do companies strike the balance between capitalism and fan culture? Should fans be entitled to have a voice in new iterations of their favorite texts? Other topics Susan and Suzanne cover are the differences and similarities between sports fandom and entertainment fandom, how toxic fans and trolls affect fandom, and how fandom’s relationship to the industry is shifting as a result of COVID-19.   Here are some of the references from this episode, for those who want to dig a little deeper: Susan’s yearlong study on fandom: The Power of FandomDegrees of Fandom: Authenticity and HierarchySuzanne’s study on repackaging fan culture and commercializationCovid-19 and FandomFandoms and virtual engagement in a time of social distancingExploring Fan Communities in Online SpacesInstagram #PassTheBrush challengeDisney+ “May the 4th” TweetsDisney Terms of Use“Fanocracy” and fandom of brands like Trader Joe’s, Southwest Airlines, etc.“Joker” Fan Art contest“A Portrait of the Auteur as Fanboy”Chapter 5 of Suzanne’s book (on Fan Auteurs)The Psychology of Sports FandomThe beginning of the fan movement: brief history of the first fandomsMatinee girls as the first fansThe Disjuncture between Sport Studies' and Pop Culture Studies' Perspectives on FandomAfrican American acafandom and other strangers: New genealogies of fan studiesEsports and the future of fandom“Creators of popular media are becoming increasingly wary of their fans.

It is widely known that heart disease still remains the leading cause of death in both men and women, but did you know that up to 80 percent of heart disease is preventable? Lisa Hinton, the Executive Director of American Heart Association’s Metro Chicago joins us in this week’s episode to talk about this non-profit organization’s combat against cardiovascular diseases and stroke through public health advocacy and education. Possessing a leadership role, Lisa Hinton is a strong believer that the best leaders do not focus on the things people can do for them, but what they can do to serve the people. She also brings attention to the fact that Chicago has the largest life expectancy gap in the country, and touches on how we can decrease this gap through research based solutions and treatments. Tune in to learn more about Lisa Hinton’s distinct leadership approach, and the initiatives she takes to make a collective impact on the health of our communities. . . . . With over 14 years of non-profit fundraising and management experience, Lisa Hinton dedicates herself to oversee fundraising and community engagement activities, as the Executive Director of American Heath Association’s Metro Chicago.

Continuing this vision, she worked with several organizations such as National Multiple Sclerosis Society, and The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, where she supervised and managed teams and fundraising staff. Lisa believes that we should focus on improving external factors that affect health such as economic stability, access to healthcare, and the opportunity to obtain proper education.

The ways that we can be present with people on their healing journey is often determined by our mindset and approach. What happens when we shift our focus away from “fixing” a person, to recognizing and building their resilience? Rachel Sorg and Gretchen Behimer talk about the pitfalls of services, and how to steer away from doing the work of "fixing" to the work of connecting by growing a person's resilience. Gretchen Behimer, LISW-S, has been working with children and families for over 25 years. She earned her Bachelor's degree in Psychology from Kalamazoo (MI) College with an emphasis in Business Management and Accounting. Prior to becoming Program Director of Clermont County Family & Children First (FCF) in March 2004, she was a counselor at the Sonja Shankman Orthogenic School (residential treatment facility) while she completed her Master's degree in Social Service Administration at the University of Chicago.

Eric and Omar are joined again by Dr. Dominic Morais, Physical Culture and Sport Studies scholar, to discuss the emergence of the “Iron Game” in the early to mid 1900’s. We learn what it was like to be a lifter when Muscle Magazines emerged. Communities formed around shared experiences created by the stories told in magazine columns. This contemporary history would be the first battle grounds between magazine owners, athlete icons, “gurus” and training philosophies. During this era Olympic Lifting underwent changes, bodybuilding became a legitimate separate endeavour and powerlifting would also formalize.

Eric and Omar are joined by Dr. Dominic Morais and Dr. Ben Pollack, not only accomplished strength athletes but also experts with PhDs in Physical Culture and Sport Studies from the University of Texas at Austin. The guests take us through the history that leads to modern lifting culture. We trace the strongmen and strongwomen doing Vaudeville performances in the 1700s to the early 1900s where the earliest organized strength sports were forming and when the culture-shifting Eugen Sandow emerged, planting the seed for bodybuilding.   Further Resources: https://www.starkcenter.org/ https://phdeadlift.com/ https://www.mbpowercenter.com/powerprof   Ben (@phdeadlift) Dominic (@brainybrawn)

In this podcast, Shawn and I nutrient timing. Some of the topics we discuss are: (03:00): Is there a population where nutrient timing post-exercise becomes very important? (06:00): In recent years there has been some studies concluding that nutrient timing is not of great importance as long as total protein for the day is covered, or protein is consumed prior to exercise. What are your thoughts regarding these studies? (39:30): You and your group recently published a review on this topic. What was the conclusion in that review? (42:00): Is there other times except for peri-workout where it can be beneficial to focus on consuming sufficient amounts of protein? (45:40):What is the take home message?

In this podcast, Shawn and I discussed Physique vs Sports Nutrition. Some of the topics we discuss are: 1.How you look and how you perform can be two separate things. Working with athletes, do you feel that the focus to look fit can be detrimental for performance in some athletes? 2.When it comes to body composition measurements, people often get obsessed with the numbers, striving to hit a certain body fat percentage. Do the exact numbers really matter that much or is it more of an assessment tool to track body composition? What are the limitations? 3.Do you feel that a lot of the sports nutrition recommendations gets misinterpret when it comes to physique nutrition? For example, carbohydrates and glycogen restoration? 4.Athletes are always looking for what can maximize their performance, while there is a trend in todays fitness industry of: “what’s the least you can do to get results”. What are your thoughts about this trend?
