Zeke remembers his childhood beginning with the humiliation of his family outside Liberio. Struggling in his warrior training Zeke comes under immense pressure from his parents, Grisha and Dina Jeager, who see him as a tool for the restoration of Eldia. While the boy is stuck learning two conflicting Eldian histories, Tom Ksaver, the previous Beast Titan, befriends young Zeke through baseball. When Zeke learns that Marley is suspicious of his parents, Ksaver convinces him to turn his them in. Ksaver, near the end of his term tells Zeke about a special power of the founding titan to change Eldian anatomy. They form a plan to sterilize the entire Eldian race and rid the world of titans. Later on Zeke meets with Eren and they agree to move forward with the euthanization. Finally, Levi hears Zeke muttering part of his plan right before he pulls the pin on the thunder spear impaling his body.Our awesome sponsor:Great Anime Deals - tinyurl.com/animedealsBUY OUR SHIRTS AND MUGS HERE!Other cool  Attack on Titan Merch HERE!Watch LIVE on Twitch Sunday nights!https://www.twitch.tv/beyondthebasementWatch every episode on YouTube!https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMMj8sUe2UOQRSA5-hmyQmQShoot us an email with questions, comments or your own theories!beyondthebasementpodcast@gmail.com

Today on the program, I sit down with Boston based drummer and educator, Zeke Martin.  When Zeke isn’t playing at one of the many venues around Boston, you can find him teaching drums at Northeastern University.  I thoroughly enjoyed chatting with Zeke about his unique journey as a professional drummer.  From losing his father at 7, and his mother at 17, Zeke chose to go after his dreams and carve out a life for himself in Boston.  I hope you enjoy the episode!   You can find all of Zeke’s info here!:  www.zekemartin.com facebook.com/zekemartin8 facebook.com/zekemartindrummer instagram.com/zzmartin twitter.com/zzmartin youtube.com/zekemartinproject   Email : Afterthegigpod@gmail.com   Music from this weeks show:   Intro: “Boom Bap” by Zeke Martin & The Oracle   Outro: “Say” by Zeke Martin & The Oracle   Instagram:  @afterthegig @jhumphreymusic  #ontourwithjhumps  

Tyrone Nesby shares with Zeke his story of never giving up on a dream or backing down from a challenge. The new head boys basketball coach at Muhlenberg didn’t start playing organized basketball until eighth grade. He began his sophomore season as the last guy on the bench at Cairo (Ill.) High School. Believing that nothing is impossible, a decade later he found himself playing in the NBA -- and as a teammate of Michael Jordan. It is the same message he conveys to his players at Muhlenberg, a program that went 5-17 last season and has won just six Berks Conference games over the past four seasons. Nesby brings a vast wealth of basketball experience to the Muhls. He played 255 games in the NBA over four seasons with the Los Angeles Clippers and Washington Wizards, the latter with Jordan. Nesby scored more than 1,000 points in two seasons at UNLV. He has coached AAU teams for the past four years, including his son, Tyrone Nesby IV, who helped lead Reading High to a state championship last season. “My first NBA game was when I played in the NBA,” Nesby tells Zeke. “I had Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as an assistant coach. The guys knew I wanted to be a coach when I got done playing basketball. Every time we went on the road I sat behind Michael Jordan on the plane and on the bus and talked a lot. I took advantage of that.” Nesby tells Zeke that he got to the NBA from being the last guy on his high school bench “with a lot of hard work and dedication. I never stopped learning. It doesn’t matter where you started. It’s all about where you finish.” When Zeke asks Nesby what his coaching style at Muhlenberg will be, he replies: “We are doing a lot of getting the ball out quicker. X’s and O’s are big to me, I’m all about plays. Different defense principles, I’m big on that. Teaching can overcome some talent gaps. I don’t have to have the best talent in the county, as long as I have kids that at least know the game a little bit. If you want respect, you gotta give respect. Give me some effort, show me that you really want to be here, that’s enough for me. You can work hard all you want to, you gotta work smart. I have been here (Berks County) four years now. I notice a lot of kids coming to my camp; there are a lot of fundamentals not being taught. We do a lot of fundamentals.” As for his expectations for next season, Nesby replies that “it’s definitely too early to tell. I just told the kids, I do not want to be done in February when our regular season is over.” Nesby encourages his players to play other sports as well. “I tell the kids go play football, go play baseball, I’m OK with that,” he says. “I try to schedule around other sports (in the offseason) so the kids can go play all they want to.”

Albright College men's basketball coach Rick Ferry shares with the Zeke the story of the Lions' 2016-2017 season in which they surprisingly reached the MAC Commonwealth Championship Game despite finishing with a losing overall record at 13-14 but going 10-6 in the conference. Albright lost the title game to top-seeded Lycoming 76-62, but the fact that they even reached the title game was a remarkable turnaround. The Lions were struggling miserably on offense but the emergence of Fred Rowles as a scorer to complement leading scorer Dejuan Smith and Omari Ringgold fueled their strong finish. Smith, a junior, and Ringgold, a senior, were named to the All-MAC Commonwealth Men's Basketball Team -- Smith earning second-team honors and Ringgold making honorable mention. As for the turnaround as the season progressed, Ferry tells Zeke: “I don’t think you can point to one thing -- we’ve been on a rebuild for the past few years. We weren’t necessarily pretty but we were playing good, we had some good losses.” Ferry tells Zeke that a difficult non-conference schedule contributed to their sub .500 season. “I consciously built up our schedule this past year,” Ferry tells Zeke. “It doesn’t matter what our overall record is as long as we do well in the conference and have a shot at the NCAA playoffs. My boss looks at team GPA, retention and graduation rate before wins and losses.” The cost of attendance at a private college like Albright can make recruiting a challenge. “You can’t give scholarships in Division III,” Ferry says, then adds with a laugh: “If you’re really poor and really smart you will get a great financial aid package.” Regarding recruiting, Ferry tells Zeke: “You never know what will make a person tick. You want good work ethic. You want someone who is highly motivated.” When Zeke asks what gives him the most satisfaction in coaching, Ferry replies: “Watching these guys develop. They come in as 17- and 18-year-old boys and leave as 22-year-old men.”

Reading High wrestling coach Joe Ferrari shares with Zeke the story of a milestone season for the Red Knights and himself. When Ferrari became the wrestling head coach at Reading High, he wanted to build a program around a solid work ethic and a family atmosphere. “Our philosophy is to try to make guys better humans ... character builders and teach respect,” Ferrari tells Zeke. “Good people equals good work ethic equals successful people. Wrestling is hard work. Other teams say, ‘Do your guys always work that hard?’ Wrestling is hard work. We keep your heart rate as high as it can go.” More than a quarter-century after taking the job, Ferrari's philosophy helped the Red Knights enjoy one of their most successful seasons and reach a pair of milestones for the oldest wrestling program in Berks County. The Red Knights reached 20 wins in a season for the first time, finishing the dual meet schedule with a 22-8 record. The 22nd victory also was the 300th in Ferrari's 26 years at Reading. The Red Knights also qualified for the Berks playoffs for the first time in nine years, winning their first county playoff match since 2008 before losing in the semifinals to eventual champion Exeter. Ferrari's family atmosphere pays off. While many schools, including some large schools, are struggling to attract enough wrestlers to fill the 14 weight classes, Ferrari hasn't had that problem. He finished the regular season with 28 wrestlers on the roster. With junior Malik Jackson (23-9), sophomores Eli Ortega (25-11) and Eli Arroyo (22-8) and freshman Zamir Rice (23-12) returning next year, the future looks equally bright for Reading High wrestling. “We had a large group of freshmen two years ago that want to work hard and wrestle year-round,” Ferrari explains to Zeke. “Our program has been successful over the years because we have great people (coaches) in place at the elementary and middle school level. We’re in a stacked division, but my goal next year is to win a Berks County championship.” Wrestling is a hard sport but the PIAA has taken measures to ensure that wrestlers can’t severely cut weight. “Team members must take a fat test and a urine test to be sure they are not dehydrated before weigh-in and to be sure body fat is not below seven percent,” Ferrari tells Zeke. When Zeke asks what Ferrari finds most satisfying about coaching, he replies: “Developing students to have good character and be good people. The most satisfying moments are when I run into students five to ten years after graduation and they thank me for helping mold them into who they are now.” Watch or Listen to more of our story on Talking Sports and Fitness with Zeke and learn about how we are impacting other small business owners through mentoring and training. http://www.thepeoplechronicles.com/talking-sports-and-fitness-with-zeke/

Reading High basketball coach Rick Perez shares with Zeke what it was like to coach an outstanding group of young men to an amazing 28-4 season, their second straight Berks Conference title, their first District 3-AAAA title in six years, and their first trip to the PIAA semifinals in 33 years. Perez says this team has a special bond and chemistry that united the Reading community. He speaks of his team as an exceptional family that led the charge. "They bought into the concept of family, loyalty and commitment. It became their habit." Perez tells Zeke that he doesn't recruit or accept high-quality transfers because he wants an inclusive home-cooked program with a deep connection that develops trust, and that trust is a big part of this team's success. "Everyone has a voice," he says. "Everyone is important. What we're trying to sustain is much bigger than this year's accomplishments. The culture of Reading High basketball is family, loyalty and commitment." When Zeke asks Perez what he will remember the most about this special season, he says, "Dancing at practice. Ultimately basketball is a game. What do you do in a game? You play." Perez also talks about coaching such an elite talent as Lonnie Walker IV, the Gatorade Pennsylvania Player of the Year and first-team All-Stater who is being heavily recruited by numerous marquee college basketball programs.

Now in his 52nd season of coaching at Wilson High School, Roy Snyder has had an unparalleled career in sustained excellence. With over 500 wins in dual meets, Snyder has won four state championships, 15 district championships and 28 league championships. The retired health and physical education teacher and athletic director at Wilson also has coached 15 individual state champions. Snyder tells Zeke that "I get more satisfaction from developing a mediocre swimmer into a good swimmer than from developing a naturally gifted swimmer into an outstanding swimmer." Under Snyder, West Lawn has become a swim capital. "We have a comprehensive swim program, teaching swimming, youth group programs, coaching kids for competition," Snyder tells Zeke. He still loves going to the pool every day because he loves working with the kids. He is coaching in his second pool at Wilson, a state-of-the-art facility now in its second season -- a facility that is used heavily by the Wilson community. Swimming is a sport of repetition, but the routine over five decades of coaching never gets old for Snyder. "The kids keep me going, working with the kids," Snyder explains. "Seeing them improve ... taking average or below average kids and making them pretty good. It's all about team. Everybody counts." When Zeke asks Snyder what has changed the most in swimming over his five decades, Snyder responds: "Weight training. Our kids are in the weight room about three times a week."

Roy Snyder tells Zeke how stressing the importance of team has been paramount to the remarkable success of the Wilson High School boys swim team this season and in previous seasons. "It's probably the team approach we have with our coaching staff," Snyder says. "And we have a great feeder program." This year's team has remarkable depth, which has enabled it to overcome the lack of individual superstars. "We have a great dual meet team," Snyder said of his Bulldogs. "This is the type of team I enjoy coaching the most." While Snyder in recent years coaches only the boys team, for many years he coached boys and girls. The legacy of the program's success draws swimmers like a magnet. "We have about 25 to 30 divers and about 200 swimmers," Snyder explains. In an era when many coaches stress focusing on one sport, Snyder says, "I encourage kids to do multiple sports. At Wilson, swimming is a seasonal sport, not year round." When Zeke asks what are the ingredients of a good swimmer, Snyder replies: "There is an ideal physique (length) but desire and motivation are more important. A lot of it has to do with a natural feel for the water and enthusiasm for the sport.

Born in Brussels, Belgium in 1973, Zeke Martin entered the world with a pair of drumsticks in his hands. As child, he had a strong appreciation for diverse musical styles such as Jazz, Funk, Reggae and Rock, and was heavily influenced by his father, the late Stu Martin, who played with Jazz royalty including Herbie Hancock, John McLaughlin, Charles Mingus, Dave Holland and Quincy Jones to name a few. Now known for his own drumming chops and unique style, Zeke Martin has carved out his own musical path which has led him to create a fresh funk-jazz style that he explores with his band on "The Zeke Martin Project 4" which just won Best Jazz CD at the New England Music Awards. When Zeke and his band join Julie to share their music, it's a hip funky-farm thang.
