This week, the guys cover a packed lineup of sports stories, including the Packers' embarrassing loss to the Falcons, Marvin Harrison Jr.'s disappointing start in Arizona, the Edmonton Oilers' upcoming season, the Edmonton Elks' wild CFL matchup, and Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s controversial comments. The episode opens with a quick introduction from Ewan, who explains the schedule change and sets up an episode filled with NFL, NHL, CFL, and MLB discussion. The NFL conversation begins with the Atlanta Falcons' dominant 35–14 win over the Green Bay Packers. The guys break down Bijan Robinson's huge rushing performance, Drake London's monster receiving game, Atlanta's ability to control the line of scrimmage, and Green Bay's shocking lack of a rushing attack. They also debate whether Jordan Love is good enough to lead the Packers to a Super Bowl, whether Matt LaFleur should keep his job, and how difficult Green Bay's upcoming schedule could become. The discussion then shifts to the Arizona Cardinals and whether Marvin Harrison Jr. would benefit from a change of scenery after a disappointing start to his career. The NHL portion focuses heavily on the Edmonton Oilers' upcoming season. Will, Alex, and Ewan share their expectations for the team under new head coach Mike Babcock and discuss the importance of starting the season strongly.

The guys discuss Fajardo's two interceptions, Edmonton's lack of a rushing game, the Argos' explosive passing attack, Vinny Blankenbaker's missed field goal, and the Elks' playoff outlook. Finally, the episode closes with an extended debate about Vladimir Guerrero Jr.'s controversial comments and his disappointing season with the Toronto Blue Jays. Alex explains why the comments were especially frustrating for fans, while Ewan and Will discuss leadership, accountability, Guerrero's massive contract, his lack of home-run production, and whether the Blue Jays can bounce back next season.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr said his huge contract is for what he already did, not what he's supposed to do.

In 2019, Yan Gomes was behind the plate for the Washington Nationals in Game 7 of the World Series. He caught the final pitch and helped the team capture its first World Series title in franchise history. In this conversation, Yan shares a behind-the-scenes look at that moment — and the journey that, years earlier, helped him become the first Brazilian-born player in MLB history. You'll hear how the Nationals roster came together to turn around a 19-31 start to their season and ultimately win the World Series — as well as many of the mindsets & philosophies that helped Yan become an MLB All-Star and Silver Slugger. At its core, so much of Yan's story is about feeling the weight of enormous responsibility (but also embracing it for the joy and fulfillment you can derive from it). ** Follow Andrew **Instagram: @AndrewMoses123X: @andrewhmosesSign up for e-mails to keep up with the podcast at everybodypullsthetarp.com/newsletterDISCLAIMER: This podcast is solely for educational & entertainment purposes.

Britt, Brad, and former U.S. Soccer captain Carlos Bocanegra sit down with Dr. Ben Freakley for a practical conversation on the mental side of youth sports. Freakley, a military brat and former college soccer player and coach, traces his path from a painful VMI loss that pushed him into sports psychology, to work with Army Rangers, the Toronto Blue Jays' mental performance department, and building Atlanta United's high-performance staff alongside Bocanegra. He now leads Ready, Set, Resilient and consults with athletes, coaches, and high performers.The discussion centers on cognitive load: how parents yelling from the stands, coaches barking from the sideline, and a kid's own inner voice create “noise” that makes it harder to play. Freakley explains why coaches (and parents) should cut feedback to one or two clear points, triage what actually matters, and save the rest for later. He offers a simple post-game framework he uses with his own high-school football-playing sons—goals, honest reflection on what went well, what to improve, and a plan for next time—aimed at building self-awareness rather than delivering a play-by-play critique.Freakley shares his expertise and a hot take on developing confidence, and he talks a length about stressing process over results.Bocanegra and Freakley also share what they looked for in young academy players beyond speed and skill: kids who showed up every day, competed, and figured things out when they weren't the most gifted.Freakley's closing billboard for every youth field: Love your kid. Unconditional positive regard. No conditions of worth tied to points, minutes, or wins. “You're enough.” A grounded, coach-and-parent-friendly episode on reducing noise, building process, and keeping the relationship first.

Jann revisits the conversation we had with media powerhouses Laura Brown and Kristina O'Neill back in November 2025. They discuss their book, 'All the Cool Girls Get Fired.' Their discussion revolves around the challenges women face in the workplace, particularly the stigma associated with being fired. They share personal stories about their career setbacks and reframe failure as an opportunity for growth. The conversation highlights the emotional impact of job loss, the significance of community support, and the need for women to own their narratives and embrace new opportunities. Ultimately, the episode serves as a reminder that setbacks can lead to new beginnings and that women are not alone in their struggles. They remind us all about the importance of self-worth, closure, and the power of experience.  Laura Brown is the founder of LB Media, and the chair of (RED)'s Creative Council.
