On the recruiting trail, Peyton Higginson (Salem Hills), Uhila Wolfgramm (Maple Mountain, over Oklahoma), and Tennessee OL Kyle Nabrotzky all committed to BYU, extending what recruiting analysts rank as the second-best class in the Big 12. BYU's winningest quarterback — and now a BYU graduate — Max Hall joined via Zoom to set his season over/under at nine wins, rave about freshman QB Enoch Watson's arm talent, and lay out his all-time top five quarterbacks: Brady, Favre, Rodgers, Manning, and Brees.Other highlights included a recap of Stadium of Fire's spectacular Brad Paisley performance and drone-and-fireworks show, LJ Martin earning Re-Lyte Athlete of the Week for his 32-carry, 222-yard, two-touchdown performance against Cincinnati last season, and BYU basketball landing at #23 in CBS's preseason poll.

One of the most recognizable Cubs fans has passed away. Jim Anixter, also known as "The Pink Hat Guy" died Tuesday, June 30, at Lake Forest Hospital surrounded by his family and loved ones. His cause of death has not been released, but his family tells WBBM he died from complications following a surgery. WBBM's Mai Martinez was a longtime friend of Anixter's and talk to him a few years ago about his love of the Cubs and the meaning behind his pink hat. "I've been at every opening day since 1967 through 2019 however with the pandemic, that was messed up in 2020," recalled Anixter during a 2023 interview. Anixter was a fixture at Cubs games for nearly six decades--spending much of that time sitting right behind home plate in his signature pink hat. It's a tradition that started more than 30 years ago. "1990 the All-Star game was at Wrigley Field so I wore a pink hat and then my cousin said why don't you make a hat called 'The Pink Hat Guy,'" he explained. Anixter, who was also a successful businessman did just that--even getting a trademark for the name and the hats which he would give away with a simple request--a donation to the American Cancer Society. "The best thing about The Pink Hat Guy" though is that I'm trying to make people aware of how bad cancer is. I'm trying in my own way to make a cure for cancer," he explained. Because as Jim's family and friends will tell you he loved helping others just as much as he loved the Cubs. Anixter's funeral service will be livestreamed on the Shalom Memorial Funeral Home website at 1pm on Friday, July 3, 2026. In lieu of flowers, and in keeping with the tradition of Jim's Pink Hat, his family is asking that memorial donations be made to the American Cancer Society

The Trump administration says it won't renew the free trade agreement between the U.S., Canada, and Mexico. But a member of the Canadian advisory team says that doesn't mean it's time to panic. 110 years after a First World War battle devastated a Newfoundland Regiment, a near-exact replica of a tree that stood on the battlefield has been unveiled — a powerful moment for one of the people who made it. Canada is officially joining the phenomenon known as Eurovision. And the Canadian behind the fringe show "A Canadian Explains Eurovision To Other Canadians" tells the uninitiated why that's such huge news. In celebration of Canada Day, we searched the archives for conversations about wonderful, odd, and sometimes controversial Canadian inventions, such as the much-discussed pineapple on pizza. The fact that he was at a LA Dodgers baseball game didn't stop one Mexico fan from cheering emphatically when his team scored a goal in a FIFA World Cup soccer game.As It Happens, the Wednesday Edition. Radio that gives you a very loud ballpark figure.

In Episode 320 of The Block Runner Podcast, hosts William, Iman, and TJ are joined by SuperFan and Dr. Mien of BigNoodle, the AI native art platform behind the Heroes collection that launched on the block pad. The guys trace BigNoodle's path from a Bitcoin Amsterdam hackathon and DMT inspired generative art to its next chapter: a decentralized AI compute network. The core thesis: Bitcoin turns energy into value, and Big Noodle wants to turn that same energy into intelligence. They dig into decentralized physical AI infrastructure, GPU and CPU boxes that aim to cut the cost of inference by as much as ninety percent, and compute as a brand new asset class in a world of data center power shortages and GPU scarcity. They also cover whether you can plug a frontier scale model into a distributed network, the mining style reward mechanism behind it, and their yield product called Bullion, where epoch based profit share lets you contribute a unit to a compute pool the way you would add to a DeFi pool. Plus why censorship resistant AI matters as the frontier labs start drawing political lines, and the sci fi units they minted for the NAT.fun hackathon. Disclosure: The hosts are founders of NAT.fun and hold positions in assets discussed. Nothing in this episode is financial advice.

As the Buff-Tail Buzzers face off against their bitter rivals, the South Town Stingers, the competition gets intense, the emotions run wild, and sports super-fandom gets taken to a whole new level!While the crowd buzzes with excitement and the championship hangs in the balance, Mindy uncovers fascinating science about what happens inside our brains when we root for our favorite teams. Why do some fans stay cool under pressure while others lose their minds when a rival scores? What makes victories feel so amazing—and losses feel so devastating?To find out, Mindy dives into a real scientific study that used MRI brain scanners to peek inside the minds of devoted soccer fans while they watched their teams win and lose. The researchers discovered that when our favorite soccer team succeeds, the brain's reward system lights up like a celebration parade!

Tune in to discover why cheering for a team can feel so personal, how our brains react to wins and losses, and why understanding those reactions might help us become better competitors—and better teammates—both on and off the field.✨ Don't miss the chance to explore even further with Wow in the World:Grownups can visit tinkercast.com/join-twaaw to join the World Organization of Wowzers (WOW) and unlock exclusive activities, birthday cards, quarterly mailings, first dibs at events, and a welcome kit with an autographed photo of Mindy & Guy Raz!
