The Bama Standard: Alabama's Second Scrimmage Recap! Is Saban Pleased? Dark Horse QB Emerging? The second scrimmage of Alabama Fall Camp is in the books! Going in, many felt like this would be the platform where starting positions were confirmed. Of course, one of those positions is quarterback. Recently, Jalen Milroe seemingly took the lead over Ty Simpson and Tyler Buchner. Was that the case today? Nick Saban issued a challenge, demanding that someone force him to play them. Did that happen today? In the last scrimmage, Nick Saban was visibly upset because of inconsistencies across the board. One of the targets of his rage were the wide receivers. How did they perform today? Malik Benson, Amari Niblack, Kendrick Law, and Shazz Preston have been turning heads. Was that the case today? Have Kevin Steele and Tommy Rees got the ship headed in the direction they want? Nick Saban was very critical of the defense this week. He was impressed again with Jaheim Oatis and Justin Eboigbe. Saban also mentioned that Tim Keenan has shown improvement. Our own Stephen M. Smith was on hand to speak with Nick Saban in his post-scrimmage press conference. Coach Saban was absolutely fuming mad in the presser. Stephen reveals his main take-aways following this pivotal practice. Justin Riley, Steve Brown, and Stephen M. Smith break everything down. - The Bama Standard is hosted by Justin Riley, former Alabama linebacker Marvin Constant, former Alabama running back Bo Scarbrough, comedy legend Steve Brown, and senior analyst Stephen M. Smith. - #collegefootball #rolltide #alabamafootball

He donated a sizable contribution to the now Keenan center which is building it's new headquarters set to be open to students in the fall of 2022.

☀️This episode is a summer update. ☀️ Mentioned in this episode

The Defense Strikes Back, This is the Defense You are Looking For, The Defense Runs Strong in this One. I can do this all-day, but let's cut to the chase. When Saban set out to remake his defensive template, he did so with the 2021 unit in mind.  Significantly increased speed across the board, versatile defenders in the secondary, pass rushers at each angle and level, and size the right amount of size where it counts. Did I mention depth? Wave after unrelenting wave of depth. Commence the attack.   Defensive Line – Pre-Camp Projections The 2015 defensive line may be my all-time defensive front at Alabama. Yes, it was sprinkled with stars but what knocked me off my feet was how it wielded its depth as a weapon. A full 8 players were in active rotation – among 3 spots mind you – most of whom still receive pay for play. That is a tall, perhaps even unreasonable, task for any defensive front to replicate so I'll stop short of predicting heroic feats for the 2021 bunch.  But understand I count to 6 with barely a hesitation and it makes me giddy.   Roster/Rotation Across the front, health is the difference between making a difference and holding just on. LaBryan Ray and Justin Eboigbe, to differing degrees have seen the careers stunted due to injuries. DJ Dale experienced much the same in 2020, while true freshman (and highly touted) Tim Keenan works to recover from an injury during his senior season of high school. If Alabama meets with good fortune on these fronts, the Tide defense should be well anchored – considering that's an all-conference caliber starting front with a reserve by itself. What to Watch For Injury Report, injury report, injury report. Even if the above guys are only part time players, Alabama has the chance to field a stout front. If they are fully healthy, it gets late early for many opponents. Is Phil Mathis the next in a recent run of superb interior pass rushers? Are Tim Smith and Jamil Burroughs ready to capitalize on their 2020 seasons? Are Braylen Ingraham, Byron Young, and Stephon Wynn going to fight to not get passed over? Are the freshmen ready to ride day one? Predictions End – LaBryan Ray, Phil Mathis Nose – DJ Dale, Tim Smith End – Justin Eboigbe, Jamil Burroughs With, incredibly, a full 8 more scholarship players on the roster, look for these projections to change and expand throughout fall camp.   Linebackers – Pre-Camp Projections This is another position where Saban assessed his roster and elected to go big game hunting on the transfer portal, landing junior Henry To'oTo'o. The former Tennessee linebacker already fluent in much of the system having played under form Saban Defensive Coordinator Jeremy Pruitt. To'o To'o was also rated as the top available player in the portal, but of course he was. Yet adding To'o To'o, who mercifully goes by Hank, does not simply add talent to the squad. It allows Alabama to field an all-star team at the position while bolstering an already deep bench.   Roster/Rotation Christian Harris and Hank book ended by Christopher Allen and Will Anderson promises to keep offensive players and coaches up at night. Meanwhile, Golding and Sunseri will work hard to develop the bounty of young talent comprising as deep a legitimate bench as the Alabama has had in years. What to Watch For Much of the best news will come from the rotation which should be mined with an eye towards 2022. By the same token, some reporters may spend their words elsewhere but here are a handful or topics worth keying into your radar. How do sophs Drew Sanders and Chris Braswell look during camp? During recruiting and through the summer both players were mentioned in step with Will Anderson, especially Braswell. Does King Mwikuta stay or go? While he entered his name into the transfer portal, he has not yet left the program (as of this writing). If he returns, he stands a chance of earning a spot in the pass rushing rotation. Who among Shane Lee, Ian Jackson, Demouy Kennedy, and Jackson Bratton are going to claim a 2nd team role in the middle? Predictions Jaylen Moody will see plenty of time in the middle and he's earned it. This will keep Hank and Harris fresh during and across games. While Christopher Allen was dynamite down the stretch last season, I wonder if he could fend off a legit charge from an inspired Braswell or a potential super freshman like Dallas Turner. Does Drew Sanders stay at outside linebacker? We asked who would step into a backup role in the middle and with a push for increased speed on the roster does Sanders move his outside skillset to the middle? Another alternative discussed during his recruitment and into last season's camp is if Drew would move to tight end, which some scouts believe is his best position. My guess is he plants a flag somewhere during the 2021 campaign. The bigger mystery may be where. Outside – Christopher Allen, King Mwikuta/Dallas Turner Inside – Henry To'o To'o, Jaylen Moody Inside – Christian Harris, Drew Sanders Outside – Will Anderson, Chris Braswell Note, last preseason we asked if Will Anderson is the next Derrick Thomas. We suggested if that's indeed the case then Williams would win two Nattys during his time in Tuscaloosa. Hmm, halfway there.   Secondary – Pre-Camp Projections This position makes me angry. I'm no Bruce Banner, so you'll like me when I'm angry, at least in this instance. Alabama's secondary frustrates me because there are too many worthy players and not enough starting roles. Not to mention, the youngsters we want to see develop or even burst on the scene. Of course, this is a great problem to have, but I am not wrong either. Roster/Rotation Alabama does play plenty of nickel (5 DBs), and dime (6 DBs), packages so fans will get to see lots of defensive backs in action. What to Watch For Can Jalyn Armour-Davis fend off super freshman Kool Aid McKinstry for the right to start opposite Josh Jobe at corner? Between Brian Branch, DeMarcco Hellams, and Daniel Wright who claims the safety spot opposite Jordon Battle? Hellams and Wright platooned at the position most of 2020 until Hellams appeared to wrest the position away from Wright down the stretch. Meanwhile, Brian Branch is a clear talent qualifying each as worthy of a full-time starting role in the base nickel. Other end of the same question, which one does not play with the first team dime? At which position will fellow super freshman Terrian Arnold see the field?     Predictions CB – Josh Jobe, Marcus Banks CB – Jalyn Armour-Davis, Kool Aid McKinstry SS – Jordon Battle, Kristian Story FS – Brian Branch, Terrian Arnold Star – Malachi Moore, Jahquez Robinson Money – DeMarcco Hellams, Daniel Wright Undoubtedly this listing will change but it is a starting point to around which to orient camp news. It is also inherently wrong as we are projecting a two-deep at six positions, which is not nearly the same as discussing rotations we'll see during the season. Almost by definition the Star and Money players would elevate into a top four spot in case of injury.  In other words, Daniel Wright is much better than the 12th DB on the team.   Now, let's consider the defense as a whole. Fast, deep, and versatile at each level are the recurring themes and this should provide the coaching staff with several options when it comes down to game planning. What to Watch For Its as tired as it is true to recognize the offensive era we're in. Alabama led the conference in scoring defense last season while twice conceding more than 40 points and averaging more than 19 per game. Its also possible for Alabama to improve significantly on those totals. The secondary is not rebuilding, and the linebackers are a proven strength as compared to last season's starting point. Predictions Saban's best-ever or challenging 2012 for metrics, let's not go all that way, but we've already called for more complementary tendencies from the offense. Similar to offense, this promises to be fun to watch.                 2021 Alabama Football Pre-Camp Field Guide – Fall Camp Primer – Special Teams   For the most part, Alabama special teams benefit from being so keenly adjacent to a roster filled with young, hungry players ready to make a name for themselves as aggressive and dependable. As for specialists, that's the measure for true upside. Roster/Rotation Fortunately, Will Reichard returns following his perfect season in 2020. Odds are he does not repeat the feat, but if he can remain injury free, he's a proven commodity. From there its mostly questions. What to Watch For Which of the punting newcomers Jack Martin from Troy or James Burnip from Australia will overtake Sam Johnson and Ty Perine for the job? Does Chase Allen handle kickoffs or does Will resume the full suite of kicking duties? Is Gabe Pugh ready to take snapping duties for Thomas Fletcher? Does Billingsley return kicks and Slade punts of is there a young skill position player like a Jase McClellan or Kool-Aid McKinstry ready to step into the limelight? Prediction Junior transfer Jack Martin averaged 46 yards per punt last year for Troy. If he simply repeats the performance the battle is over before it begins. Chase Allen will be given every chance to handle kickoffs.  This is how Reichard sustained his hip flexor injury during 2020. Paul Tyson likely takes over holding duties for Mac. Slade will handle punts but watch for JoJo Earle to get some reps as well. McKinstry will either start or corner or get a long look at kick returner, but he will not be saddled with both as a true freshman. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On today’s episode, I talk about what I’ve been doing for the past two weeks, and I share the story about how I came up with my company name.   Mentioned in this episode Alex Sanchez linkedin.com/in/alex-sanchez-3935b1174, voiceactorwebsites.com  Brad Newman linkedin.com/in/upperlevel, www.upperlevelhosting.com  Tim Keenan linkedin.com/in/tim-keenan-15b3788, creativemediarecording.com   Source Connect https://source-elements.com/products/source-connect  The Pharmacist’s Voice Podcast has listeners in 37 US states and 21 countries. May has been a very busy month for me.   My new website launched Thursday, May 21.  Thank you Alex Sanchez and voiceactorwebsites.com.  Also, thank you Brad Newman at Upper Level Hosting for guiding me through the tech pieces that go into changing websites.  Everything looks great, and I’m really happy with how things turned out.  Thank you again Alex and Brad!  If you want to check out the new website, please visit www.thepharmacistsvoice.com. The last two weeks have been filled with plenty of activity.  I’m still adjusting to being able to focus on my voiceover business full-time.  My husband is doing a great job helping with the kids so I can audition and direct-market to potential clients. I really love what I’m doing with my voiceover business and the podcast.  I’ve met so many people because of both.  It’s been such a great experience.  My guests are amazing, and I love to hear how they use their voices.  Plus, their network of supporters has liked, commented on, or shared the podcast across several social media platforms.  I appreciate the engagement, and it’s fun to watch this podcast of mine touch lives.   Throughout the month, I’ve met and connected with a number of voice actors too.  One has even become a medical narration workout buddy.  Time zones are tricky, but the practice is helping me stay sharp and get better.   Every other week, I meet with my voice actor accountability buddies.  A hot topic that came up last week was Source Connect.  I’m giving more serious thought to getting connected.  Tim Keenan’s webinar helped.   My husband is updating his resume and LinkedIn profile.  He will be searching for a job soon. I came up with my company name 3 years ago before I knew about the voiceover industry.  Looking back on it, it was a small miracle.   Using my identity as a pharmacist in my business was important to me.  Having the word “Pharmacist” in my company title was important to me.   I knew I wanted to use my “voice” to do something.  I put the words “Pharmacist” and “Voice” together, and the name “The Pharmacist’s Voice” organically came about.   Using my voice is very important.  Having a voice is so very important.  My husband and I have a 17-year-old non-verbal son with autism.  We are his voice.  I know how important it is to have a voice, and I want to communicate important messages.    I can use my voice in the spoken word or in the written word.  My company name is versatile.  I absolutely love it, and it is very personal as well.  I feel very blessed and very thankful to have the company name The Pharmacist’s Voice.  I can combine my voice and my identity as a pharmacist to do work that I love.  My work allows me to support my husband from home and raise our children in the unique way they need to be raised. The next solo episode is June 12, 2020.

Creative Media Recording in Cypress California.  Audio Recording & Sound Design in Orange County. Tim Keenan has an ear for audio quality and is the 3rd owner of the full-service recording studio of which, he started off as an employee of.  70% of the recording they do is the non-broadcast corporate type projects like eLearning.  And 30% is commercial recordings for TV & radio. I talked to Tim about how he goes about marketing Creative Media Recording. They’ve tried yellow pages and pay per click online ads but he says the best type of advertising is word of mouth.  And he does that by networking. “We tried all kinds of stuff but you know word-of-mouth is the best. I love live networking so I network at organizations that would use my service.  Under “meet up” you could find hundreds of different things that would be potential producers that get together and you may not be interested necessarily in their subject but you go there to meet these people and establish relationships. Because people hire people.  They want to have a relationship with somebody.  That’s what it’s really about.” Tim’s got a very interesting Twitter feed…actually 2.  He doesn’t spout off about politics and opinion pieces…or vinegar…instead he give shares information his target audience would enjoy reading about. Thus the dead squirrel quote at the beginning of the show. He really knows his audience. “I took a workshop on ‘Twitter for Business’ and I opened up a second Twitter handle that was really targeted more towards my clients and I talk to them about the stuff that they are interested in: audio, audio for video, new microphones, new technology.  That kind of thing.  Whereas with voice over people, I talk about the voice over business and I try to give my tips and advice.  But yeah, I work it.” Then we talked about his staff.  He’s got 2 studios that share 1 booth.  Over the years, they’ve downscaled and are now using a couple freelance engineers and tap into their pool of VO clients all over the country. As a voice-over guy, I am always interested in what gets the attention of people like Tim. He says, “It’s a fine line between keeping in touch with people and then overdoing it.” He talks about this being a face paced business.  If he can’t find the voice over demos on the website within 1 click…he might move on. Not everyone in this space is a “tech geek”…but he does have a favorite piece of equipment.  The iZotope RX helps reduce room echo.  It’s hum reduction, its noise reduction. He does a lot of sweetening audio in post-production, so the iZotope RX is perfect for that kind of work. What’s his pain point?  He LOVES audio.  The diminished appreciation of audio quality is something he called The Youtube-isation.  So, even though there’s plenty of good quality software and hardware for a decent price…the file then gets compressed to unnecessary lengths. One particular project he’s proud of is a documentary on his homepage, ww2 blimp hangars they did all the audio wall to wall for the project. What separates CMR from the competition?  His niche, he’s a production coordinator, so he gets hired to provide clients consistent quality.  So, whether they’re hiring VO’s from the midwest, Nashville, or anywhere around the country…he’ll vet the studio and the sound. He’ll make sure it sounds as if it was recorded at CMR.  Plus, they’ve got a vast pool of VO’s that specialize in many things.  So, if there’s a medical script, they know an RN that also does voice over. Creative Media Recording also does VO demos and complete foreign language conversion for projects. In fact, their biggest commercial client does English and Spanish versions of the same spot. So, while I wasn’t able to post this podcast beforehand, Tim was a part of the VO Atlanta 2018.  He was part of a panel for e-learning/corporate narration with Christi Bowen and Anne Ganguzza.  He planned to talk about e-learning from the client side.  Especially since he’s had so many different types of clients (insurance, medical) and so many types of VO (e-learning, IVR, audiobooks).  He seems to like that every day is something different. I asked him about living in Orange County, California if they’ve had any brushes with fame.  He said thanks to his SEO he’s been found by NPR for projects.  Plus Guy Fieri recorded a bunch of VO for Diners, Drive-Ins & Dives. But the biggest is back in the 90’s when his studio cat got featured on Pets in the Workplace, on CNN. Sam the cat when viral before there were viral videos. And if ANYONE has that footage, please send it this way!

In 1968, Tim Keenan and his brothers lived out the ugliest side of humanity in Vietnam. Nearly 40 years later, and still wrestling with PTSD, Tim thru-hikes all 2178.3 miles of the Appalachian Trail, and tells of the healing.

A trip to Trail Days wasn't on my itinerary when I hiked the AT in 2014, so my visit this year had a dual purpose. I was going there to both see what I'd missed and to interview others who were attending. I was trying to capture some of the spirit of both Damascus at party time and the Appalachian Trail. This episode will focus on Trail Days and forms the first of two such episodes. I'm still following Attie, as she makes her way north. She has hit a few walls on the way but is upbeat pretty much whenever we speak and is taking each day as it comes. She has teamed up with a couple of other hikers, Bananas and The Machine. Here is her iconic shot at the glorious McAfee Knob.     Another past guest, Erin McKenzie, told us about her Fear and Loathing thoughts on the AT.   But this week is mainly about Trail Days. I've pulled together a number of the short, live conversations that I had with a wide variety of people. I hope you enjoy them. First up was Nathan Harrington, the enthusiastic maker of his Katahdin sign replica. These signs are all handmade by Nathan personally, so each will be unique. Nathan also has a great story to tell about how he proposed to his lovely wife, Sharon, at McAfee Knob. You can actually see the moment he proposes on his YouTube channel, Between the Blazes, as well as other AT videos. You can also follow him on Twitter as @ToKatahdin. If you'd like to buy one of Nathan's exquisite hand-made Katahdin signs, go to his website, www.betweentheblazes.com Tim Keenan told me his moving story that combined his AT thru-hike with a reconciliation of his "enemy," as he referred to him, later in Vietnam. You can get Tim's book, The Good Hike, on Amazon. It has excellent ratings. Next, I spoke with Will Ransom and his beautiful dog, Retta. They seemed to have such a calm and mutual understanding of one another and were utterly devoted to one another. I asked Will if he'd carry on if Retta couldn't continue. Interesting answer. Dick Klane, from the Friends of Baxter State Park, kindly gave me a run-through of the new rules regarding permits to summit Katahdin at the end of your hike (as a NOBO). It is really worth listening to Dick, because you really need the climax of your hike to run smoothly on the day. If you'd like further clarification, you can check out their site, at friendsofbaxter.org. It is an excellent site and full of information on the park. It is well worth checking out before you end up in the park. Bob Peoples is quite simply one of the legends of the Appalachian Trail. His Hardcore Crew work to build and maintain sections of the trail and his selfless devotion to all things AT is remarkable. We are so lucky to have Bob in our lives. Last, but certainly not least, I ran into two young women at the All You Can Eat (AYCE) pancake breakfast in town. Nadia and Kathleen were at the same table as me and, when Nadia saw my podcast tee shirt, she asked if I was the podcast host. Apparently, she is a listener and I couldn't miss out on interviewing a fan!!
