Episode 166 takes us all the way to Kalamazoo, Michigan, where Manny Dosanjh finds himself as an assistant coach with Western Michigan! Manny has a great journey, starting in Brampton, Ontario, with immigrant parents who allowed him to explore his interests in the game. Manny loved hooping and found himself to be talented, earning a scholarship to a small JUCO in Michigan. After JC Manny walked on at Oral Roberts University and after some shoulder injuries, he decided to walk away from the game as a player. Things turned quickly as Manny was offered an opportunity to coach at storied Orangeville Prep, and he jumped at the chance right away. After two years at Orangeville, he became a grad assistant at Michigan State, which led to his job at Western Michigan. The journey is a good one, for any young coaches out there, it's a great story to hear about what it takes! Just another example of the great coaching out there in Canada! Tap in!

Blues fan favorite of the early 2000s. A college star at Western Michigan, a leave-it-all-on-the-ice type when he got to the Blues…and eventually a Stanley Cup champion with the Blackhawks. Now a hockey analyst for Sportsnet. "Jammer" takes us down memory lane.

The hosts bring in special guest Ana Menendez, Kate's strength and conditioning coach at Mizzou, to spill the tea on training smart during the season. Spoiler: it's not about lifting the heaviest weights — it's about staying strong, mobile, and injury-free. Ana breaks down how workouts change by position, why form > ego, and how recovery and nutrition are just as clutch as any drill on the field. Whether you're a rising athlete or just trying to stay in the game, her tips are gold. From game-day grind to gym-day gains, this episode has it all.

We're officially in preseason mode, and Leah Klenke and Kate Phillips are bringing the heat. In this episode, the duo breaks down what those early matchups actually teach a team — from tough lessons vs. Kansas State and Indiana to figuring out how to get the freshmen locked in and game-ready. They get into the nitty gritty of film review (spoiler: it's not always pretty) and talk about how seeing the big picture helps shape team identity before the real grind begins. Plus, they unpack what rankings really mean — or don't. Leah's team sits at #2, but she's keeping it real: "Preseason polls really don't mean anything." It's all about showing up and proving it on the field. With big games ahead against Western Michigan and Arkansas, the energy is high and we wish both our fantastic new hosts a great season to boot!!

For many, integrative medicine has become an unattainable luxury, and healthy diet and lifestyle the prerogative of the privileged. Today's guest, Dr. Ramona Wallace, is attempting to change that. Trained conventionally as a DO, she undertook additional training and certification via the Institute for Functional Medicine to broaden her clinical skills. She practices primary care in an underserved community in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she incorporates diet and lifestyle recommendations to address her patients' chronic conditions. Careful nutritional assessment has revealed that many of her patients, while overtly overweight, are decidedly malnourished. She has documented a wide range of deficiencies—of B vitamins, vitamins A, C, and D, critical minerals like zinc and magnesium, even full-blown scurvy. These are precisely the patients who are most likely to benefit from nutritional support. Discovering obstacles to compliance is a key element to effect their health transformations. Dr. Wallace believes that individualized care is the key to reversing long-standing health conditions. She mentors medical students in the first-of-its-kind Functional Medicine program at a medical school. She has also co-authored a landmark paper arguing for wellness self-care by doctors, to stave off burnout and to help them be better role models for patients.
Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Ramona Wallace.
“You can go your whole life and not look back... until it's necessary.” Keisha Brooks shares a soul-stirring journey through Detroit's West Side porches and East Side power, weaving a story that reclaims ancestry, heals through touch, and reminds us why the Mack Alive Parade still marches strong after 35 years. In this intimate conversation with Khary Frazier, Keisha reflects on growing up on Hazelwood and Greenview, her transition from Mumford Mustang to Western Michigan student, and finding her calling in healing arts through massage therapy. From the hip hop shop on 7 Mile to Cafe Mahogany, Keisha gives voice to the women who shaped the city's culture in the 90s—and reveals how today's work with Mack Alive brings it full circle. “I'm massaging ancestors out of people's backs,” she jokes, but the impact is serious. Learn how Praise in the Park and the East Side's biggest parade are not just events, but Black Detroit legacy in motion—from Jackson, Mississippi roots to Connor and Harper streets, and back again. This is a masterclass in how memory, music, and movement continue to define Detroit's healing future.
