Most men were never taught how to be emotionally present. They were taught how to provide, how to perform, and how to push through. And for a long time, that felt like enough. But if you've ever come home after leading hundreds of people at work and felt completely lost in your own living room, you're not alone. This is why famous at home exists in the first place. In this episode, Josh discusses the tension men feel between the demands of their professional lives and the deeper call of their homes. Drawing on decades of research—including what one USC longitudinal study found is the single greatest factor for passing faith across generations—his own coaching work with high-capacity men, and two personal moments where he heard the quiet voice of God, Josh unpacks the three relationships every father must tend: with his wife, with his kids, and with Jesus. Whether you lead hundreds at work and feel lost at home, or you're simply trying to figure out what a present, emotionally engaged husband and father looks like in practice — this one's for you.*Thank you to Bernhardt Watches for sponsoring this episode!

For this episode, we are replaying another episode of Diverse Thinking, Different Learning, this time episode 239, in which we sat down with Ashley Harding to discuss why it's so important to allow students time for rest, rejuvenation, and exploration of their interests outside of academics, especially during the summer months. As a reminder, Ashley is a fourth-generation educator and is deeply committed to educational equity. She holds degrees from USC and Tufts University in Child Development, and her career spans more than a decade, during which she has supported students and families in private and independent schools and contributed to global education initiatives in South Africa and Belize. Formerly the Director of External Engagement for a national school network, she has co-authored research on disparities affecting Black and Latino males and has been featured in The Wall Street Journal. Through her organization, North Star Academics, and her roles with BEAN and CHADD, Ashley empowers students with evidence-based strategies and advocates for those with learning differences. With summer right around the corner, this seems like the perfect time to re-air this episode, and Ashley touches upon the fact that even though academic progress remains valuable throughout the school year, summer offers a really important opportunity for students to strengthen their sense of identity, independence, and executive functioning, so, rather than filling the break with demanding academic programs, she encourages parents to instead prioritize experiences that help build confidence, self-awareness, and connection. Our conversation stresses the importance of families (both parents and students, that is) using the summer to rest, recharge, and reconnect. Ashley recommends a gradual approach, beginning with more unstructured time in June before introducing increasingly intentional activities in July and August, such as exploring upcoming coursework, reinforcing some core skills, and establishing goals for the new school year. We also explore the value of real-world learning opportunities such as cooking, managing money, and traveling, all of which can reinforce academic skills in meaningful ways while also supporting executive function development. Ashley emphasizes the importance of giving students, especially older ones, the space to pursue their interests and uncover new passions during the summer. Show Notes: [3:58] - Ashley stresses that summer should prioritize rest, integration, and well-being after a year of growth.[6:52] - Colleges value students' identities, interests, and independence beyond just academics.[9:08] - Ashley points out how post-pandemic families often need recovery, balance, and time to reset.[11:36] - Ashley explains how growth involves perseverance, reflection, and preparing for new goals and identities.[14:09] - Intensive summer programs can cause burnout, making balance and rest especially important.[15:15] - Rest can help children develop balance, self-awareness, and healthy decision-making skills.[17:58] - Summer creates opportunities for family reconnection, rest, and improving mental health.[19:09] - Parents should model balance and create space for unstructured experiences.[21:47] - Dr. Wilson provides some information about a ChildNEXUS school partner, Frostig School.[23:12] - Ashley touches upon how everyday activities can help reinforce academic skills without pressure or strict expectations.[25:14] - Hear how real-world learning and flexible routines can help maintain engagement and executive functioning.[28:36] - Ashley emphasizes that extra sleep and rest are important, but consistent routines should still remain.[30:19] - Summer offers some valuable opportunities for self-reflection, confidence-building, and personal growth.[32:59] - Independence develops via practicing time management, organization, and learning from mistakes.[35:42] - Dr. Wilson asserts that families can foster confidence by celebrating growth and collaborating on summer plans.[37:43] - Summer helps families discover evolving interests and strengthen belonging via connection.[40:21] - Dr. Wilson highlights summer as a chance to reconnect and better understand children.[42:05] - Beyond a school break, summer can lead to confidence, independence, and personal growth.

For five seasons, Mick's take was: skip school, get your headshots, get on set. Now, with more distance from USC's School of Theater - and a clearer view of what longevity in this industry actually requires - he's not so sure. In this episode, Mick and Ashley revisit the theater school debate: what it gave him, what it didn't, and why the tools for the long game often look useless until they aren't. Plus: they open with 12 minutes of NBA playoff chaos because Lakers + Knicks season is not a drill.

Send us Fan MailToday's show is going to be a little different. Usually, I interview professionals who are law enforcement, military, or victims of crimes. Today, I will interview a man who was a criminal. This is a story of second chances and what can be accomplished after making a mistake.Today on the show, I have Owen Hanson, whose life story was featured in the Mark Wahlberg production documentary, Cocaine Quarterback, available on Amazon Prime. Owen is a California kid whose mother left him and his father at a young age. He grew up playing volleyball and earned a scholarship to play at the University of Southern California. In his sophomore year, he was essentially cut from the team. His coach told him to get bigger and improve his vertical leap. So, Owen worked out six days a week, twice a week, and made it as a walk-on to the football team. He also took performance-enhancing drugs in his quest to become stronger and faster. This kid, who came from a modest middle-class broken home, was now partying with rock stars and other celebrities. He was also the team's and campus's drug dealer. After graduation, he wound up working as a bookie, money launderer, and associate with a Mexican drug cartel. At one point, he was making over a million dollars a day until it all came crashing down on him. He was tried and sentenced to 21 years in federal prison. Through a cooperation agreement with the Australian government, he was released after nine years. While he was in prison, he started a frozen protein product that he is now selling as a free man. Owen made a mistake, paid the price, and is now reinventing himself. He is proof that sometimes all someone needs is a second chance. In today's episode, we discuss:·      Having his mom abandon him as a young boy.·      Your route to USC via volleyball and feeling out of place with the rich kids in his school.·      Dealing illegal drugs in college.·      The availability of powder cocaine at USC in the early 2000s.·      Being benched his sophomore year in college volleyball.·      Becoming a walk-on for the football team. ·      Being the team's drug dealer, getting the drugs at the veterinarian's office in Tijuana.·      Living the rock and roll lifestyle as a college football player.·      How he got involved with a Mexican drug cartel.·      Making prison frozen protein.·      Does he ever look over your shoulder, thinking a cartel hitman might come after him?Head on over to Owen's website to learn more about his story!Head on over to my website! What's the craziest thing you saw when you were a cop?My first week on the job, a guy running at me with a butcher knife.

Send us Fan MailWhat if one of the biggest missing pieces in teacher retention is how we support mentor teachers?In this episode, Becca talks with John Pascarella, professor of clinical education at USC and Chief Academic Officer of the USC Race and Equity Center, about why mentor teachers are often asked to support new teachers without the training, role clarity, compensation, or coaching they actually need.They unpack why being a great teacher does not automatically make someone a great mentor, how mentoring adults requires a different skill set, and why schools need to stop treating mentorship like informal volunteer work.This conversation is for instructional coaches, school leaders, district leaders, and teacher leaders who want to strengthen new teacher support, improve teacher retention, and build more effective mentoring systems in schools.John's Info:Faculty profile  |  CCTE Policy Brief (free download, includes my brief on mentor teachers)  |  Learning Policy Institute (Stanford University)Buy "The Resistance Solution" here!Let's Stay Connected!Website  |  Instagram |  Twitter |  Linkedin |  Facebook |  Contact Us

Owen Hanson went from a disciplined kid in Redondo Beach to a USC walk-on football player surrounded by celebrities, pro athletes, and power — before one bad decision became the rush he chased for years. In this raw conversation with Randall Kaplan, Owen reveals the true story behind **Netflix's The Cocaine Quarterback**, his rise from campus hustles to a global drug and gambling operation, his connection to the Sinaloa cartel, and the prison sentence that forced him to rebuild his life.Owen Hanson's story is not just a crime story — it is a story about ambition, insecurity, adrenaline, ego, consequences, and redemption.Randall Kaplan sits down with Owen for a gripping Part 1 conversation that begins with Owen's childhood in Redondo Beach, including his father's strict discipline, his parents' separation, and the early emotional wounds that shaped his identity. Owen opens up about feeling abandoned, learning not to cry, and channeling pain into sports, competition, and survival.From there, the conversation moves into Owen's earliest signs of entrepreneurial instinct — including a childhood gambling hustle with quarters and lunch bets — before tracing how those same instincts later became dangerous when mixed with money, status, and the need to belong.The episode also dives into Owen's rise at USC, where he became a walk-on football player during one of the most iconic eras in college football. Surrounded by celebrities, athletes, parties, and status, Owen explains how access became power — and how that power slowly turned into a criminal network.Randall and Owen then unpack the expansion from campus dealing to a sports betting business, then to international money movement, cartel connections, Australia, cocaine, laundering schemes, and the moment everything began closing in.Timestamps00:00 - The moment Owen realized he was in too deep00:42 - How a USC athlete became connected to the Sinaloa cartel01:52 - The childhood wound Owen says shaped everything07:00 - The 11-year-old hustle that revealed his future instincts10:54 - The line between strategy and manipulation16:47 - The USC setback that sent Owen to Tijuana21:08 - The first lie that gave him the rush he chased for years23:16 - How Owen became the only non-scholarship player to make the USC football team25:11 - Inside the USC football celebrity machine36:16 - The gambling customer who changed Owen's life forever42:38 - The million-dollar-a-day offer that pulled him overseas1:36:39 - How prison became the beginning of Owen's redemptionAbout Owen HansonOwen Hanson is a former USC athlete, entrepreneur, public speaker, and the subject of the Netflix documentary “The Cocaine Quarterback”, produced by Mark Wahlberg.

Last week on The Scoop, Temple head coach Adam Fisher talked about why he was excited to bring USC transfer Jordan Marsh to Temple. This week, you'll hear from Marsh himself in our 1-on-1 interview with the rising senior point guard. After averaging 18.8 points per game at UNC Asheville two seasons ago, Marsh entered the portal and nearly committed to Temple after a visit with the Owls before USC swooped in at the last minute to sign him. When Marsh hit the portal again after this season, he said he didn't need to think twice about where he wanted to go. “I knew exactly where I wanted to be,” Marsh said of Temple. In addition to hearing from Marsh, you'll also hear from Keegan Gray-Wyckoff, one of three class of 2027 football players who have announced their verbal commitments to Temple over the past week, and there's a lot more past, present and future football and hoops talk in the mailbag, too.

University isn't just harder than high school — it's a completely different academic and social experience. From classroom expectations to independence and self-advocacy, IvyWise counselor Amy (formerly at Harvard) and host Tasha (formerly at Boston University and USC) break down what students should expect when transitioning to college life and how to set yourself up for success beyond admissions.

In this conversation, Dr. Marc Smith shares his journey from hedge fund trading in New York's financial district to building an integrated ketamine psychiatry practice in California. After three years in finance doing trading and sales, Dr. Smith made the bold decision to completely pivot his career toward medicine, driven by a desire for purpose and meaning that his financial career couldn't provide.Dr. Smith's path took him through Columbia University for medical school, followed by psychiatry residency at USC, where he discovered his passion for interventional treatments like TMS and ketamine therapy. His unique perspective, having worked in both profit-maximizing finance and purpose-driven healthcare, provides valuable insights into the challenges of maintaining ethical medical practice in an increasingly commercialized healthcare environment.Dr. Smith's practice, Clear Ketamine + Psychiatry, represents an integrated model where he personally handles psychiatric evaluation, preparation therapy, ketamine treatment administration, and post-treatment integration sessions.What You'll Learn in This Episode· Career transition insights - How Dr. Smith navigated the complete pivot from finance to medicine, including the challenges and rewards of choosing purpose over profit in healthcare· Mental health crisis analysis - Dr. Smith's perspective on factors contributing to rising depression, anxiety, and suicide rates, including social isolation, technology impacts, and healthcare access barriers· Treatment-resistant depression understanding - Why 30% of patients don't respond to traditional antidepressants and how ketamine offers a different mechanism through NMDA receptor antagonism and neuroplasticity induction· Integrated practice model - Dr. Smith's unique approach combining psychiatric evaluation, preparation therapy, ketamine administration, and integration sessions all under one provider rather than outsourcing components· Intentions versus goals framework - How to help patients set internal emotional states they're striving for (intentions) alongside specific, measurable functional outcomes (SMART goals) for comprehensive treatment planning· Ketamine as catalyst concept - Understanding how ketamine works like "jumpstarting a car" to improve mood and motivation, while ongoing therapy and lifestyle changes provide the maintenance needed for sustained improvement· Ethical practice building - Dr. Smith's mission to combat ketamine stigma through evidence-based protocols while addressing concerns about recreational associations and inappropriate use in the field· Private practice autonomy benefits - How owning your own practice allows values-driven decisions that may conflict with profit maximization, contrasting with private equity-driven healthcare models· Business building practical advice - The importance of talking to other practice owners, understanding it's a marathon not a sprint, and knowing your limitations to outsource effectively· Biopsychosocial treatment approach - Addressing biological, psychological, and social elements of mental health through medications, therapy, exercise, sleep, nutrition, social connection, and nature exposureEpisode 58 show notes:00:00:00 - Teaser: Profit vs. Purpose in Healthcare 00:00:35 - Episode Introduction00:02:03 - Dr. Smith's Background: From East Coast to Medicine 00:02:30 - Career Transition: Three Years in Financial Industry 00:04:12 - Discovering Psychiatry Through Clinical Rotations 00:05:32 - Why Psychiatry: Deep Relationships and Human Connection00:08:50 - Tools in the Toolbox: TMS, Ketamine, and Treatment Options 00:09:30 - The Leap: Stepping Away from Finance Success 00:11:17 - The Marble Metaphor: Chiseling Away What We Aren't 00:12:46 - Self-Actualization and Gratitude in Medicine 00:14:01 - USC Residency and Academic Reception of Ketamine 00:16:54 - Evidence-Based Medicine and the Slow Pace of Change 00:19:17 - Mental Health Crisis: Social Isolation and Technology 00:22:50 - The Invisible Nature of Mental Health Challenges 00:25:28 - Private Equity vs. Patient Care: The Business Tension 00:30:18 - Private Practice Autonomy and Values-Based Decisions 00:32:15 - Clear Ketamine + Psychiatry: The Integrated Model 00:36:11 - Treatment Protocol: Six Sessions with Therapy Integration 00:37:56 - Ketamine as Jumpstart: The Car Analogy 00:42:00 - Intentions vs. Goals: Internal States and SMART Outcomes 00:46:30 - Ethical Standards and Combating Ketamine Stigma 00:50:15 - Practice Building Advice: Talk to Other Providers 00:52:55 - Rapid Fire Questions: Book Recommendation 00:54:52 - Last Meal 00:55:52 - Pickleball Obsession and the Philosophy of the Game 00:56:50 - Time Travel00:58:46 - Alternative Career01:00:04 - Advice to 20-Year-Old Self01:01:53 - Contact Information and Practice Details 01:03:03 - Final Thoughts: Gratitude and Evidence-Based Care 01:04:20 - Ending and ResourcesThanks for listeningConnect with Dr. Marc Smith at:Website: https://www.clearketapsych.comInstagram: @clearketapsych, @marcsmithmdLinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/marcsmithmdGoogle Maps: https://maps.app.goo.gl/GCHVy8q183c7WvfLA

Ohio State enters the 2026 season as the consensus No. 1 team in college football, but the biggest reason the Buckeyes could win another national championship may not be Julian Sayin, Jeremiah Smith, or even Ryan Day. In this episode of the Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down why roster depth could be Ohio State's greatest advantage. From Tavien St. Clair and Bo Jackson to Devin Sanchez, Eddrick Houston, Kenyatta Jackson Jr., and an elite secondary, the Buckeyes have talent stacked throughout the roster. Can Ohio State survive the brutal road trips to Texas, Iowa, Indiana, and USC while making another playoff run? Let's dive in.

Humans are unusual dads. Across the animal kingdom, dads are often absent from child-rearing altogether. But among humans, fatherhood takes many forms, and in the last half century, it has changed dramatically. College-educated American fathers now spend nearly four times as much time caring for their children as they did in the 1960s. And according to new research, this new type of fatherhood doesn't just change a man's schedule or priorities—it can literally change his brain. Today, Derek talks with USC psychologist Darby Saxbe, author of 'Dad Brain,' about the science of modern fatherhood. They discuss how active parenting affects men's psychology and how changing expectations around fatherhood are reshaping families and men themselves.

Screenwriting Legends SCOTT ALEXANDER and LARRY KARASZEWSKI discuss their origin stories of being film nerds, drive-in movies, how looking on the back of Variety was glorious when they were kids, how Shakey's Pizza's silent movies influenced them, meeting the first hour at school and deciding to go to the Nuart Theater in Los Angeles, why they program screenings including The Wrong Guy, what makes a good story from real life, why offbeat losers make better subjects than heroes, how directors like Tim Burton are loyal to the script and love stories of art and outsiders, why awards are fun but stupid, their process of deciding on ideas in a shockingly random way, sinking time into ideas that go nowhere, the amazing Marx Brothers movie that can't seem to get made, how they can't shake a movie once they love it, how producers are just as stupid as they are, whether everyone has a movie in their lives and why someone doesn't make a bio movie about them, and how pickleball can save your life! Bio:SCOTT ALEXANDER and LARRY KARASZEWSKI met when they were freshman roommates at USC's School of Cinema. On a whim, they wrote a screenplay during their senior year, which sold a week after graduation. They are best known for writing very unusual biopics with larger-than-life characters. They wrote the highly-acclaimed ED WOOD, for which they were nominated for Best Screenplay by the Writers Guild. They followed this with THE PEOPLE VS. LARRY FLYNT, for which they won the Golden Globe for Best Screenplay, as well as a special Writers Guild award for civil rights and liberties. They scripted the extremely postmodern MAN ON THE MOON, the life story of Andy Kaufman. They wrote BIG EYES, the strange-but-true story of Margaret and Walter Keane, for which they received an Indie Spirit Best Screenplay nomination. For their first television project, they created the hit miniseries AMERICAN CRIME STORY: THE PEOPLE V. O.J. SIMPSON, for which they won the Emmy, Golden Globe, PGA and WGA Award for Best Limited Series. Their most recent film, DOLEMITE IS MY NAME, is the celebrated tale of Rudy Ray Moore. Other than biopics, Alexander and Karaszewski are quite eclectic. They wrote the hit Stephen King adaptation 1408. They produced the Bob Crane biopic AUTO FOCUS, and they wrote and directed the comedy SCREWED. They have also written numerous family films, including PROBLEM CHILD, PROBLEM CHILD 2, AGENT CODY BANKS, and GOOSEBUMPS. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Are you wasting your money on cheap at-home skincare devices that don't actually work? In this episode of Beauty Bytes, I sit down with my fellow USC alum, Nicole Chau, the CEO and founder of La Luer. Nicole created an incredible patented device that combines six different clinical technologies—including red, blue, and green LED light therapy, ultrasound, radio frequency, and galvanic currents—into one single tool.We dive deep into the real science of LED light, exposing why those inexpensive Amazon masks often lack the correct wavelength, power, and density to actually generate ATP and synthesize collagen. Nicole also explains how modalities like radio frequency and galvanic currents can help sculpt your jawline through lymphatic drainage and specifically help menopausal skin lock in much-needed hydration. We even discuss her journey as a female founder, getting recognized at CES and Sephora's Accelerate program, and why consistency with your at-home regimen is the ultimate secret to true skin longevity. If you want to know how to properly replicate in-office results at home without compromising your skin barrier, this is a must-listen.Guest Information:Nicole Chau is the CEO and founder of La Luer.

That Solo Life Episode 342: What the 2026 USC Global Communications Report Says About PR Today Episode Summary Karen and Michelle open with a question that lands before the intro music fades: When was the last time a client approved a statement without pushback? The answer tells you everything about the communications environment right now and so does the report they spend this episode unpacking. The USC Annenberg Center for Public Relations 2026 Global Communications Report, titled A Quiet Shift, surveyed over 700 PR professionals, more than 1,000 members of the general public, and conducted one-on-one interviews with Fortune 500 chief communications officers. Karen and Michelle read it with the solo and independent practitioner in mind and pull three findings that are immediately relevant to how you counsel clients, frame messages, and navigate a landscape that has shifted more dramatically in two years than many expected. A fourth and fifth finding will be covered in a future episode, and in an exclusive YouTube behind-the-mic segment, the co-hosts announce at the close. Episode Highlights [03:01] The Perception Gap — You Feel It More Than Your Clients Do: The report identifies a meaningful gap between how PR professionals perceive the current environment and how the general public does. 81% of PR professionals say polarization is extremely or very high right now — but only 69% of the general public agrees. That 12-point gap has practical implications for how practitioners advise clients. Karen asks the key question: are you advising clients based on your own anxiety about the landscape, or are you exercising the restraint that meets your audience where they actually are? The solo advantage here is real — without agency layers and group dynamics amplifying collective anxiety, solos have more room to reality-test their instincts before they become strategy. [08:52] Corporate Social Advocacy Has Retreated — Sharply and Fast: The data on this one is stark. In 2023 and 2024, 89% and 85% of PR professionals respectively, said companies have a responsibility to advocate for social issues. By 2026, that number has dropped to 55%. The general public sits even lower at 42%. The drop took two years. For practitioners working with nonprofits, purpose-driven brands, or clients whose missions touch social issues, the wind is no longer at your back — but it hasn't stopped blowing. The shift is not uniform: 6 in 10 Gen Z and 7 in 10 millennial PR professionals still hold this belief. Understanding your client's audience generation is now essential to calibrating how hard to push on purpose-driven messaging. [14:55] The Content That Disappeared After the 2024 Election — and What Replaced It: Using exclusive data from Cometrics.io, the report analyzed LinkedIn posts from 6,317 C-suite executives at Fortune 500 companies across a six-month window before and after the November 2024 election. The volume of communication stayed the same. The topics shifted dramatically. AI and agents content rose 75%. Cybersecurity up 29%. Technology ethics up 27%. On the other side: LGBTQ+ content dropped 77%. Greenhouse gas content down 50%. Net zero down 44%. DEI content down 13% — though Karen and Michelle both note that number is likely understated by now. A separate Meltwater analysis of media coverage tracked the same pattern. The practical implication: if your clients have content in the declining categories, the framing strategy has to change. The story doesn't stop — but how you tell it does. [20:08] What Solo PR Pros Do With This Information: Karen and Michelle close with the practitioner application: if a client's content falls in the declining categories, you don't stop. You reframe. You spend more time at the strategy table. You adjust how the message lands without abandoning who the client is. Michelle's reminder: your voice as a practitioner is still your voice. You navigate circumstances — you don't abandon your position. And if a client's business includes a credible AI story, tell it. If they aren't, others are telling it for them. Coming up: Karen and Michelle will cover additional findings from the USC report in an exclusive behind-the-mic YouTube segment for deeper discussion.

Will Ohio State Have Another Top-5 Defense in 2026? Buckeye Weekly PodcastOn the Buckeye Weekly Podcast, Tony Gerdeman and Tom Orr discuss whether Ohio State can field another top-five defense this season after losing several high-end, versatile defenders. They note last year's unit was historically great (9.3 points per game, 4.0 yards per play, and no opponent scored 20 defensive points), making a repeat unlikely, especially with a tougher schedule that includes improved offenses like Texas plus high-scoring teams such as USC, Oregon, and Indiana. The hosts expect the defense to remain excellent, citing year two under Matt Patricia, better familiarity with personnel, and the ability to shape roster additions, while acknowledging a more aggressive offense could create shorter fields.00:00 Welcome and Banter00:47 Top Five Defense Question02:44 Why Last Year Was Historic03:57 Patricia Year Two Impact06:29 Schedule Makes It Harder09:33 Roster Depth and New Stars11:45 Predictions 13:50 Wrap Up and Subscriptions

I tested ProLon, the fasting-mimicking diet, against a 5-day sardine fast, ran my own bloodwork, and got the opposite result I expected. ProLon is the best-known version of the fasting-mimicking diet (FMD), a 5-day, low-calorie, plant-based protocol developed from Dr. Valter Longo's research at USC. The sardine fast is the cheap, unbranded version people keep hyping online. I ran both on myself about a month apart, kept calories low on each, and tracked the same markers throughout: IGF-1, fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, glucose, ketones, and glucose ketone index. I was sure the premium protocol would win. I had spent years studying these pathways and expected the plant-based, low-protein design to be the real driver. A few cans of fish gave me the opposite answer. What you'll see in this podcast:  The exact lab data that flipped my prediction IGF-1 side by side: the FMD dropped mine 55 points, the sardine fast dropped it 88 How the sardine fast drove me into a deeper ketotic state than the $200 kit Where my fasting insulin, HOMA-IR, glucose, ketones, and GKI landed on each protocol A clearer way to understand mTOR and autophagy Why autophagy is not the on-off switch the internet claims Why a little of the right protein may help protect lean muscle during a deficit What this means for clinicians who want metabolic interventions patients can actually afford About: I'm Andrew Reid.

Canadian editor Roberto Wakerell-Cruz exposes the horrifying murder of Henry Nowak, who was handcuffed by police as he bled to death because officers believed his killer's false accusations of racism. “The West has created an utterly evil state religion where an accusation of “racism” is the gravest offense that can be committed,” Elon Musk wrote about the case. “If police show up at a crime scene and a British boy is bleeding out and an immigrant says the British boy is racist, the cops will cuff the dying British boy.” Former National Women's Soccer League player Elizabeth Eddy Biggs discusses the escalating battle over trans players in women's athletics.

Should Ohio State Have the Big Ten's Best Offense in 2026? Tempo, Efficiency, and a Tougher ScheduleTony Gerdeman and Tom Orr open by promoting Tony's new “Time and Change Will Surely Show” podcast on Buckeye Insiders, then shift to whether Ohio State should have the Big Ten's best offense this season and what could limit it. They discuss how Ohio State's pace has slowed under Ryan Day to reduce wear and injury exposure, making efficiency more important, and note last year's offense dropped to fifth in Big Ten scoring and was only four points per game better than Iowa. With a deeper roster, a veteran quarterback and play-caller, and more challenging games (including trips to Texas, Iowa, Indiana, USC, and Nebraska plus Oregon and Michigan at home), they debate whether OSU must be more aggressive while recognizing stronger defenses may cap the numbers.00:00 Welcome and Banter00:21 New Podcast Announcement01:06 Quarterback Episode Breakdown02:13 Subscribe and Website Launch03:16 Will OSU Lead Big Ten Offense04:06 Tempo Versus Efficiency06:31 Depth and Injury Management07:51 Schedule Forces Aggression10:38 Last Year Scoring Reality Check11:43 Why Offense Improves in 202613:53 Wrap Up and Call to Action

In this episode of Hit The Books, Brad Powers and Joey Knish dive into one of the most debated topics in all of college football right now: which head coaches are actually being overrated by the market, the media, and fan perception. The conversation gets heated quickly as they break down the gap between reputation and real results across the sport. Mario Cristobal at Miami comes under the microscope, with discussion around elite recruiting versus actual on-field execution and whether the results truly match the hype. Dabo Swinney's Clemson tenure is also heavily debated, especially as questions continue to grow around whether the program has adapted enough to modern college football after recent down years. The guys also take aim at Lincoln Riley and whether his offensive brilliance is being overshadowed by deeper program-building concerns at USC, especially after expectations shifted following his arrival. Coach Prime and Colorado are brought into the mix as well, focusing on whether early momentum can realistically be sustained in the new transfer portal era or if regression is coming. From there, the debate escalates into some of the biggest names in the sport. Steve Sarkisian at Texas is questioned in terms of win consistency versus roster talent and program investment, while Kirby Smart at Georgia sparks one of the most controversial takes of the episode, with Brad and Joey challenging whether results fully match the national perception of dominance in today's college football landscape.

The Dedeaux Download Podcast returns with Shotgun Spratling and podcast co-host Kasey Kazliner breaking down USC baseball's unreal run through the loser's bracket in the College Station Regional, winning four games in a row to be able to take the title and advance to the program's first super regional since 2005. At the end of the show, the podcasting duo also previews this weekend's Chapel Hill Super Regional where USC is two wins away from a trip to the College World Series in Omaha.But in between, special guest USC freshman outfielder Walter Urbon joins the show to talk about the wild weekend in Texas where the Trojans dropped their NCAA tournament opener in heartbreaking fashion to Texas State only to have that light a bonfire under the Trojans. USC's offense caught absolute fire, scoring 55 runs in four blowout wins to take home the regional."It kind of felt like we were playing and scoring and I didn't even know who we were playing against," Urbon says. "We just went and scored runs and beat them."Urbon also discusses the atmosphere in Blue Bell Park where the home-standing Texas A&M fans didn't have much to cheer about the final two nights of the regional as the Trojans thumped the Aggies twice, including how USC knew they were going to take care of business once it forced the winner-take-all Game 7"After we did that that [Sunday] night with their fans there, we had zero doubt," Urbon says. "We were totally going to win. We just fed off the energy."Urbon also discusses his journey this season from the unfamiliar territory of not playing every day to getting his chance because of an injury and then running with it and never looking back. The Los Angeles native also discusses his defense and how an activity like the Brazilian dance fighting exercise capoeira helps him stay grounded and athletic.Prior to Urbon's appearance, Shotgun and Kasey break down the regional win and what it means for the Trojans as they note three positives, including a full roster of players stepping up and quieting some of their critics. They also look at the loss of pitching coach Sean Allen after he was named the next head coach at Lamar...three days after the Trojans eliminated Lamar from the NCAA tournament.

In this edition of the Peristyle Podcast hosts Ryan Abraham, RJ Abeytia and intern India Otto are back in studio taking a look at which Trojan football players have the most to prove in 2026. Head coach Lincoln Riley brings 15 starters back and has a new-look defense with Gary Patterson calling the shots on that side of the ball, but to make that elusive run at the College Football Players there are guys on the roster that will need to turn their potential into production.On the offensive side USC brings back a lot of proven production, from quarterback Jayden Maiava to the entire starting offensive line and a pair of talented tailbacks in Waymond Jordan and King Miller. The biggest question mark will be with the pass catchers and which wide receivers and tight ends can step up and become active targets for Maiava to get the ball too.The Trojans have the most to prove on the defensive side of the ball, especially in the front-seven where the pash rush and run stopping were underwhelming last season. Linebacker Desman Stephens looks the part, but can he step up and be an All-Conference type of performer for the Trojans? Defensive end Kameryn Crawford is another guy with talent to spare, but can he put up double-digit sack numbers this season?The crew also has updates on how the USC baseball team did in the regionals plus off-season updates for the men's and women's basketball teams.Please review, rate and subscribe to the Peristyle Podcast on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠!Make sure you check out ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠USCFootball.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ for complete coverage of this USC Trojan football team.
