His play, “Conversations from the Sports Arena,” was performed at the HBO Theater in Hollywood, and his children's picture book, “Me and My Shadow,” was published in 2021.  We discuss:  >> Lucid dreaming >> Paranormal abilities >> Spirituality >> Ghosts >> Zen Catholicism >> The power of love >> Yoga >> Reiki >> Etc.  Learn more about Kevin Moore here: https://kevinmoorepublishing.com  Novelist Spotlight is produced and hosted by Mike Consol.

On March 31, 1975, the UCLA Bruins beat the Kentucky Wildcats 92-85 for the 10th and final championship under the legendary Wizard of Westwood, John Wooden. The greatest collegiate coach in U.S. history retired after his team's 7-point win at the Sports Arena in San Diego. UCLA was the best in college basketball in 1964, 1965, 1967, 1968, 1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973 & 1975. An astonishing 10 titles in 12 years! Nothing in major collegiate sports compares to the dominance of what Wooden accomplished in his final dozen years in Westwood. A week later, Steve Garvey was on the April 7, 1975 issue of SI, but the story that captivated the sports world was the final game of Wooden's time at UCLA. The end of an era that will never be replicated… and he went out a champion. Now in retirement at the age of 64, Wooden retreated to his home and continued to be a mentor to the many players who played for him at UCLA, notably, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Bill Walton, Lucius Allen, Larry Farmer and countless others. His beloved wife Nell passed in 1985 and Coach fell into a deep funk. His children were deeply worried about the mental anguish the widowed Wooden was enduring with the passing of his wife after 53 years of marriage. Gradually he came out of it with the help of his family, friends, and players who visited with him regularly. One of those who saw Coach Wooden on a regular basis for home visits was his podiatrist, Dr. Michael Levi. Michael would come often to check on the now 80+ year old Coach Wooden and the two soon became more than just a doctor-patient relationship. They would often have breakfast together and talk about family, life, baseball, God, books and any other topic that Wooden found interesting… which was everything. Michael would return home and write down everything that had taken place upon his visit with Coach… and in 2016, 6 years after Coach Wooden was laid to rest at the age of 99, Levi published a book with the help of former L.A. times writer Larry Stewart called, “Wednesdays with Wooden.” Levi talks about how he went to a camp as a 6-year old and saw Wooden for the first time and how is father idolized the legendary Bruins coach. He tells us on the Past Our Prime podcast how he and Wooden became friends over their time together and how he was able to give his father the best birthday gift ever… lunch with Coach Wooden. Levi tells us about the depression that felled the Coach after the death of Nell and what brought him out of it and how the phone never stopped ringing at Coach Wooden's house with players calling to check up on him constantly throughout the day…. Every day… It's an intimate and personal look at the most successful college coach in NCAA history from a man who checked on Wooden's feet, and ended up getting a piece of his heart.

Join us as we connect the dots between sports, gender equality, and the enigmatic world of dreams, offering a thought-provoking and engaging discussion that challenges the boundaries of each topic.

It's hoped a state-of-the-art sports facility in a West Clare town will lift the area's younger population out of a cycle of anti-social behaviour. A grant application has been submitted for an indoor sports centre in Kilrush under the Large Scale Sport Infrastructure Fund. The €124 million Government initiative was launched in April of this year and allows local authorities and national governing bodies of sport to apply for between €600,000 and €30 million for infrastructural projects. Kilrush Independent Councillor Ian Lynch believes the facility is crucial as it would offer more opportunities to the youth of the town.

This week's Happy Half Hour takes place from one of the best perches in all of San Diego: Top of the Market. It's a fully windowed and partially outdoor restaurant, separate and with a more fine dining or special occasion bent than its counterpart downstairs, the equally beloved and lauded Fish Market. To our front is sprawling views of Coronado and the bay. Directly to the right, the Midway, and to the left, a bunch of hotels, docks, and the Coronado Bridge. We sat down with Top of the Market's executive chef, Robin James, who is, in my opinion, the most San Diego San Diegan to ever do it. His first cooking job was on the line at the iconic Anthony's Fish Grotto. After that, he got his cooking degree at the Art Institute and became the executive chef at The University Club and Bali Hai. These days, he's slinging creative seafood dishes at Top of the Market. But what makes him deeply San Diego, despite his life resume and of course being born here, is that his parents met while working at Jack-in-the-box. Come on. He's a living local legend, and we get the story of his parents' meet-cute in the episode. In addition to his hometown bonafides, James is a serious cook with an Escoffier tattoo, who is consistently trying to take things to the next level. He said he was always a tinkerer, experimenting with ingredients, often ones that don't seem to make much sense together, to see what happens. He said he did a lot of that during Covid, while temporarily laid off from work, itching to create, and now he's stretching his wings more with his seafood menu. One of his more surprising dishes on Top of the Market's current list are seared sea scallops with Spanish chorizo, dehydrated mushrooms, and big white beans. Scallops, mushrooms, and beans isn't a dish I knew I wanted, but now I can't stop thinking about it. James is also cooking an Alaskan halibut on the menu with many green, spring flavors, and served with a punchy tzatziki heavy on the cucumber; he also has a seared octopus served over hummus with pickled red onions and mandolined radishes. There are crudos, and on the opposite end of the spectrum, there's a chocolate cake a-la Elvis, with bananas, bacon and honey. James assured us there are plenty of classics on the menu, too, like Top of the Market's famed cioppino, a hearty fish stew the restaurant has been serving for decades. There's good drinking at Top of the Market, too, James assures us, and the wine list is evidence of that. James and his team have been running thrice yearly wine dinners with top California producers—the next is in September, with Grgich Hills. In the meantime, they also have one of San Diego's best wine steals: a list of 30 bottles of wine for $30, every Tuesday. We're not talking two buck chuck or plonk; this is from the real wine list, made specially available for those extra fun people who want to clink glasses on a Tuesday. We also talked the news in this episode: Baja came up big in the reveal of Michelin's first guide to Mexico. The French tire company gave one star to Animalon (Javier Plascencia and Oscar Torres), Damiana (Esteban Lluis), and Conchas de Piedra (Drew Deckman and Hugo D'Acosta). Many other Baja California restaurants were recommended or named bib gourmands. Taste of Little Italy will be returning on June 18 and 19, 2024 with over 40 restaurants. And OB's Gianni Buomono Vintners is moving away from its long-held Newport Ave. spot. It'll be opening near Sports Arena soon.

This week, the San Diego City Council voted to explore the creation of a special tax district. Some called it "a major subsidy" to a large-scale project that would redevelop Sports Arena and the surrounding area. This special tax district could generate extra funds to make the big project possible, especially for all the extra infrastructure needed to serve the housing units that developers promised. The specific name for this kind of setup is called an Enhanced Infrastructure Financing District. Or EIFD for short. But, c'mon. What even is that? Scott Lewis will explain it. Plus: When January flood victims suffered, local governments got caught in red tape. And even more election results.

Should public money be used to finance sports venues? Michael Pope reports it's likely to be a hot topic at the state capitol.

Longtime Wizards insider Troy Haliburton joins the podcast to address the Wizards' potential move to Virginia. Troy wrote a great piece on his Substack (link below) about the move and what, if any, responsibility Ted Leonsis had to the District of Columbia after taking their money to support various projects throughout the years. We covered the series of events that led to this, why this move is good for Monumental's bottom line, who is to blame for the move, what this will do to traffic in the area, whether "crime" was actually a factor in the move, what this will do to the DC economy, the Entertainment and Sports Arena basically being abandoned by Monumental Sports after the DC government paid for most of it, and why this accelerates the timeline of the Wizards' rebuild. Plus, we end on a positive note with lots of praise for rookie Bilal Coulibaly. Presented by betonline.ag! Troy's article: https://troyhaliburton.substack.com/p/when-capitalism-meets-stewardship

In this engaging oral history episode, we have a visit from Frank Wolden, a prominent figure in the realm of urban design and architecture. Frank shares his journey from his upbringing in San Diego to his deep involvement in shaping the vision of downtown redevelopment. He discusses the fascinating gap between the planning and execution of urban spaces and the art of selling the concept of responsible design with thoughtful thinking.   Frank takes us through his extensive involvement in creating the vision for downtown and its redevelopment through his work as a city planner and with the Centre City Development Corporation. He provides valuable insights into academic and higher-level professional viewpoints of urban planning, highlighting the similarities between how it shouldn't be done and the way it is done today.   Frank explores the significance of articulating one's vision and embracing change, as well as the accessibility of design and the importance of passing down our value system to the next generation.   Timestamps: [1:50] Frank gives a brief background on his professional education and upbringing in San Diego. [3:24] How Frank found his way into urban design and architecture. [6:26] Centre City Development Corporation and how they set up the planning and visionary process for redevelopment in the late '70s with the centerpiece being Horton Plaza. [7:25] How Frank's interest in art and sculpture evolved into city building. [11:00] The concept of growth management and how it was evolving. [14:50] The Centre City program was the heart of growth management. [15:35] Background on Centre City Development Coordination. [18:21] Building out a space in the Spreckels building and how they got the funding. [19:33] Hallmarks of downtown redevelopment and what it did for the downtown community. [20:55] Horton Plaza was the central project that was supposed to be the heart of how redevelopment would occur and would actually catalyze all the other redevelopment. [25:44] The biggest two things that influenced the Horton. [27:47] Gaslamp and how it came to be revitalized. [31:07] Creating the gateway Gaslamp to serve the convention center and ballpark. [36:00] The urban experience of downtown during the '90, and how it compares to today. [43:45] Why was it timely and necessary to revisit Temporary Paradise in a contemporary framework? [47:04] Why it's important to have a qualitative voice in the planning perspective rather than focusing on policy and regulation. [49:15] Urban Treasure. [58:55] The Sports Arena submittal and the vision that it started with. [1:00:53] Frank's association with C-3. [1:05:07] The need for proactive action and how we can get better at the visioning process. [1:11:03] What issues should the next generation be focused on? [1:22:06] The power of community process.   About C-3   Even before the California Coastal Commission or Environmental Protection Agency existed, Citizens Coordinate for Century 3 (C-3) was the environmental conscience of San Diego. Since that time, in part due to C-3's leadership in education, advocacy, and empowerment, a plethora of organizations have developed throughout San Diego County. These organizations specifically focus on promoting progressive values in architecture, urban design, land-use governance, natural resource management, sustainable economic development, climate change resilience, and social justice. As the field of allies has grown, C-3's role has evolved to provide a platform that promotes creating civic community.   Opportunities for Advocacy and Engagement: C3sandiego.org Frank Wolden LinkedIn Centre City Development Coordination  

The Midway Rising project at the site of the San Diego Sports Arena has changed their plan on housing and San Diego City Council representatives are angry! We also discuss El Cajon ADUs, Escondido Cannabis, new CA Senator Laphonza Butler, and Gavin Newsom vetoing UE benefits for striking workers. It's Wednesday, October 4, 2023. Here's what John Riley thinks: Midway Rising Dumps Middle Income Homes, Hotel The San Diego Sports Arena construction project now has a few changes. Due to mortgage rates and other economic conditions, they are dropping 2,500 “middle income” housing units and replacing them with “market rate” housing. What do you think?

They need to raise revenue and/or reduce expenses to erase their structural deficit. The city is conducting a survey to see if locals would consider allowing cannabis dispensaries so the city can enjoy a special tax. They are also considering a Transient Occupancy Tax and a Parcel Tax. Escondido voters have already rejected a Sales Tax increase. https://thecoastnews.com/escondido-survey-to-gauge-public-interest-in-cannabis-other-taxes/ Laphonza Butler to replace Dianne Feinstein as California Senator Laphonza who? This progressive activist has been appointed by Gavin Newsom to replace the recently deceased Dianne Feinstein.

Indianapolis leaders made sports one of the focus points of its downtown economic development strategy as far back as the early 1970s. Today, we have the 70,000-seat Lucas Oil Stadium and the 17,200-seat Gainbridge Fieldhouse, not to mention the 9,100-seat Hinkle Fieldhouse and 6,500-seat Indiana Farmer's Coliseum a few miles to the north. Apparently, civic leaders believe there is room for at least one more indoor sports palace, and it intersects with another one of downtown's evolving selling points: the campus of urban university IUPUI. As we've discussed, IUPUI is in the midst of splitting into two separate campuses—one for Indiana University, one for Purdue University—with its Division 1 sports programs becoming part of what will be known as Indiana University Indianapolis. In the two-year state budget that they just approved, Indiana lawmakers allotted $89.5 million to design and build the midsize sports facility that would be home for the IU Indianapolis indoor athletic programs. But the local leaders who pushed for the funding want the 5,000-seat arena to play host to a wide variety of events serving the city's best interests as a magnet for tourism. On this week's edition of the IBJ Podcast, host Mason King chats with IBJ reporter Mickey Shuey about the rationale behind the plans for the stadium, what needs to happen before construction could start, and how it could affect Indianapolis' sports ecosystem. The IBJ Podcast is brought to you by Taft.

We talk beefs (beeves?), dig into Internet drama, and have fun. The NBA is now a 365-day league and it's never been more present in pop culture. From Kevin Durant's burner accounts to LeBron taking his talents anywhere to trusting the Process, the NBA is becoming a pop culture requirement. At the same time, sports can have gatekeepers that make it insular and frustrating for people who aren't die hard fans. We're here to prove that basketball is entertaining to follow for all fans, whether you're actively watching the games or not. Recently featured in The New York Times!

This week's mini episode is about the Atlanta Sports Arena, which once stood on Chester Avenue in today's Reynoldstown neighborhood.  This is a story of basketball, boxing, wrestling, amateur sports, square dancing, 70s rock bands and Muhammad Ali.
