Podcasts about wides

On this episode of the NHRA Insider podcast powered by Speedmaster Shawn Langdon and Matt Smith join host Brian Lohnes to deep dive into their victories at the American Rebel Light Four-Wide Nationals.    For Shawn Langdon it wasn't just the second win of his season, it was winning the 1,000th Top Fuel race ever held that has set it apart in his already decorated career. Langdon talks about a dramatic qualifying run in amazing detail, how the race day went, and why this team is once again on a path to championship contention. His insights about winning and sharing the winner's circle with Don Garlits and Connie Kalitta are fantastic. A truly historic day for both he and the NHRA.   Matt Smith made the final in Gainesville and then roared through the field to win the 4-Wides in Charlotte. In a wide-ranging discussion, Smith talks about not only his path to victory but the ins and outs of his rigorous off-season making more than 70 dyno pulls to master the VP Racing Fuel that has come back into the class for 2025, and more. It's a window into the mind and approach of a six-time champion, who is relentlessly seeking 7.    Great racers talking success and hard work!

We are joined by Wexford selector Jason Ryan this week to chat about the recent league campaign, signing off in positive style beating Limerick on their home turf, despite hitting 21 wides. Performances are improving, bodies are recovering and the countdown to championship begins. Jason talks to us about his role within the camp, his continuous journey of learning and the differences between intercounty setups from now and 15 years ago.

Konstnären Oskar Kardemark reflekterar över vårt behov av skrivande, utifrån poeten Anna Greta Wides diktning och minnet av ett rum i ett hus, på landet. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Efter att både min farmor och farfar gått bort och deras hus rivits har jag ofta funnit mig själv dagdrömma om dem och gården där jag spenderade delar av min uppväxt. Hemvant vandrar jag från rum till rum i mitt inre, tar upp föremål, vrider och vänder på dem, minns. Bakom spetsgardinerna ligger döda flugor på rygg, fixerade och torra, mer som smulor än flugor. Jag slutar alltid på samma plats; i fåtöljen mitt emot farmor Asta. I minnet är det bara vi i huset, jag är omkring 10 år och solen silas genom det dammiga fönstret. Utanför slår hästarnas hovar mot hagmarken. I slänten växer det murklor och någonstans i stallet arbetar farfar. Det är vår. Mina tunna, bara ben värms av solen, i övrigt ligger rummet i skugga. Farmor sitter med nacken krökt över en svart anteckningsbok med röda hörn. Hennes fåtölj är bred, nedsutten, kolabrun, naggad i hörnen, draperad i plädar, och försedd med en bred och mjuk dyna. Jag iakttar henne från min halvslummer medan sida efter sida fylls med hennes sirliga handstil. Flugor landar och lyfter från mina underarmar och från mina ben. Jag försöker kontrollera min andning, stilla mina rörelser; allt för att inte skrämma bort dem. Jag njuter av hur deras ben kittlar. Hade någon annan - en vuxen - kommit in i rummet hade Asta lyft blicken, stoppat undan skrivboken och skyndsamt rest på sig; men min närvaro stör henne inte. Det är detta återkommande minne som fått mig att tänka på skrivande och vilken roll det spelade i min farmors liv. Asta föddes till enkla förhållanden 1921 i Dalsland, och det var på Dalslands åkerslätter som hon kom att spendera sitt liv; som hemmafru och som släktens milda matriark. I mitt minne ser hon ut som äldre kvinnor gjorde på landet då, när sjuttio inte var det nya femtio utan, ja, sjuttio. Jag ser henne i en lång, veckad kjol med noppriga strumpbyxor, i tofflor med öppen häl och blommig akrylblus, en lagad kofta över axlarna med hopvikta ark av hushållspapper i fickorna. Kring halsen en knuten scarf som sattes som huckle när hon gick ut. Det grå håret rullades lockigt med papiljotter. Ville hon få extra styr och lyster på lockarna doppade hon kammen i ett glas lättöl, något som kunde ge henne en svag doft av alkohol, ironiskt nog eftersom hon var nykterist. Astas skrivande utgjorde inget brott i vardagen, det var vardagen, en väsentlig och obestridbar del av den; så pass så att sysslan lämnats näst intill osynlig. Den franska författaren Marguerite Duras menade att män inte står ut med kvinnor som skriver, att det är plågsamt för dem. Men så länge det inte inkräktade på andra sysslor tycktes min farfar acceptera det, och även om han inte till fullo förstod skrivandets betydelse för henne verkade han ha förstått dess nödvändighet för gården och hela maskineriet. Skrivandet var ett instrument för Asta, ett sätt att manövrera såväl den yttre som den inre världen. Till detta hade hon tillgång till flera språk. Ett för att skriva till banken, ett annat för att skriva med släkt, vänner, barn och utflyttade fosterbarn. Ett annat språk hade hon för alla de breven skrivna å farfars vägnar, inte sällan utan hans kännedom. De breven var noggrant formulerade ursäkter, konststycken i diplomati, ofta tänkta att släta över någon incident eller oförrätt farfar gett upphov till. Inom familjen skänktes hon smeknamnet U Thant efter den burmesiska diplomaten och generalsekreteraren i FN. Men så hade hon ett språk till, ett djupt personligt och egensinnigt språk för att skriva till Gud. Det var detta språk som fyllde sidorna i hennes anteckningsböcker. I dem löpte olikfärgade pennor längs marginaler och diagonaler, lodrätt och vågrätt, upp- och nervända ord mellan raderna, stycken skrivna i all hast eller noga bokstaverade. Ibland teckningar, ibland kryptiska förkortningar. För att stå ut i en sådan ohygglig ordning torde förmågan att kunna skriva ha varit livsnödvändig. Utöver att vara djupt troende var min farmor både vidskeplig och fantasirik; en kombination som gjorde henne benägen att genomsöka vardagen efter händelser och tecken som kunde laddas med mening. Detta kunde leda till plågsamma föreställningar. Hittade hon inte mig eller något av de andra barnen på gården så hade vi hämtats hem av Gud, och hon lämnats ensam kvar. För att stå ut i en sådan ohygglig ordning torde förmågan att kunna skriva ha varit livsnödvändig. I poeten Anna Greta Wides sena diktning är religiösa tvivel och längtan efter tröst centralt.  Alltid har människan älskat broar inleder hon diktsamlingen Broar från 1956. I diktsamlingen sammanförs det som varit skilt, förbindelser skapas, kontakt uppstår. Kontakt med naturen, med sin egen natur med Gud. Det är den rastlösa tron som ges kropp kontaktsökande och sanningstörstande, ömsom drömmande, ömsom nyktert reflekterande. Längtan efter klarsyn, efter resning genomsyrar dikterna, resning över det egna och det nära, det till kroppen bundna. Bron, som stäcker sig från det kända mot sin förtöjning i det okända, bär på löften om enighet. Hade Asta läst generationskamraten Wides dikter så hade säkert en särskild genklang ljudit inom henne. Farmor gick bort först, några år senare följde farfar. Efter begravningen sammanstrålade familjen för att ta hand om kvarlåtenskapen. Det var då farmors anteckningsböcker och brev samlades i svarta sopsäckar för att brännas. Inte av ointresse, utan på grund av de intrikata fantasier som hennes skrivande laddats med. En lidande människas klotter som ingen mår bra av att läsa, så löd omgivningens utlåtande. Hennes skrivande var en färdighet, och som sådan en outgrundlig makt för en novis. Konflikter löstes, avtal slöts, träffar stämdes allt med enkel hand. En osynlig bro hade byggts mellan min farmors melankoliska episoder och hennes eget skrivande. Det var som om texterna var förtrollade, att de i sig själva ägde makten att göra den som läste sjuk. Genom att glänta på dörren till ett komplext inre liv; fullt av motsträviga känsloyttringar, smärta och tvivel hotade anteckningsböckerna bilden av husmorsarketypen. Nu har även jag en penna. Mina böcker kommer från detta hus, skriver Duras och fortsätter, Från detta ljus också, från parken. Från detta ljus som reflekteras i dammen. Astas texter kom ur den dalsländska myllan, som murklorna i slänten och flugorna ur dyngan. Allt hörde ihop. Vad blir egentligen kvar av detta skrivande, efter att böcker och brev bränts? Att farmor fann tröst i sin tro vittnar släkten om, men jag undrar hur mycket av trösten som kom ur tron, och hur mycket som kom ur själva skrivandet. Tydligt är att mitt eget skrivande har sina förtöjningar vid hennes minne. Inför det tomma arket är jag åter i den nedsuttna fåtöljen, i huset som inte längre finns, i salig samvaro mitt emot henne. Nu har även jag en penna. Duras menade att tvivel och ensamhet kan ge upphov till skrivande, men något mer ska till. Kontakt; Anna-Greta Wides bro som sträcker sig från strand till strand. Det är vad jag tror skrivandet gav min farmor, och det är också vad jag hittar i dessa minnen, vad som består. Kontakt, och förnimmelsen av små flugben som kittlar i vårsolen.

Det är den rastlösa tron som ges kropp kontaktsökande och sanningstörstande, ömsom drömmande, ömsom nyktert reflekterande. Längtan efter klarsyn, efter resning genomsyrar dikterna, resning över det egna och det nära, det till kroppen bundna. Bron, som stäcker sig från det kända mot sin förtöjning i det okända, bär på löften om enighet. Hade Asta läst generationskamraten Wides dikter så hade säkert en särskild genklang ljudit inom henne. Farmor gick bort först, några år senare följde farfar. Efter begravningen sammanstrålade familjen för att ta hand om kvarlåtenskapen. Det var då farmors anteckningsböcker och brev samlades i svarta sopsäckar för att brännas. Inte av ointresse, utan på grund av de intrikata fantasier som hennes skrivande laddats med. En lidande människas klotter som ingen mår bra av att läsa, så löd omgivningens utlåtande. Hennes skrivande var en färdighet, och som sådan en outgrundlig makt för en novis. Konflikter löstes, avtal slöts, träffar stämdes allt med enkel hand. En osynlig bro hade byggts mellan min farmors melankoliska episoder och hennes eget skrivande. Det var som om texterna var förtrollade, att de i sig själva ägde makten att göra den som läste sjuk. Genom att glänta på dörren till ett komplext inre liv; fullt av motsträviga känsloyttringar, smärta och tvivel hotade anteckningsböckerna bilden av husmorsarketypen. Nu har även jag en penna. Mina böcker kommer från detta hus, skriver Duras och fortsätter, Från detta ljus också, från parken. Från detta ljus som reflekteras i dammen. Astas texter kom ur den dalsländska myllan, som murklorna i slänten och flugorna ur dyngan. Allt hörde ihop. Vad blir egentligen kvar av detta skrivande, efter att böcker och brev bränts? Att farmor fann tröst i sin tro vittnar släkten om, men jag undrar hur mycket av trösten som kom ur tron, och hur mycket som kom ur själva skrivandet. Tydligt är att mitt eget skrivande har sina förtöjningar vid hennes minne. Inför det tomma arket är jag åter i den nedsuttna fåtöljen, i huset som inte längre finns, i salig samvaro mitt emot henne. Nu har även jag en penna. Duras menade att tvivel och ensamhet kan ge upphov till skrivande, men något mer ska till. Kontakt; Anna-Greta Wides bro som sträcker sig från strand till strand. Det är vad jag tror skrivandet gav min farmor, och det är också vad jag hittar i dessa minnen, vad som består. Kontakt, och förnimmelsen av små flugben som kittlar i vårsolen.

How rotational athletes can fool you and your measures Sports such as golf, baseball, tennis, and more involve TONS of rotation, yet are certain athletes better predisposed to rotate well based on ribcage structure? Can tests be thrown off because of particular sport adaptations? We dive into these questions today. Here, you'll learn: Which infrasternal angle presentation has easier rotational capabilities If ribcage structure predisposes someone to be “GREAT” at their craft What shoulder external rotation really means in this population Be prepared, folks, to better help your supreme rotational clientele.

Which infrasternal angle is better for rotation? Question: I have noticed that roughly 75-80% of my baseball players are narrow infrasternal angles (ISA). Do you feel this is representative of a normal population? I'm wondering if this is a case of selection bias where narrow ISA's, being more eccentrically oriented, have an easier time rotating, and therefore would be more likely to advance in a rotational sport like baseball or golf. Whereas a more concentrically oriented wide ISA may have a more difficult time and as a result would more bias towards sports requiring less rotation. Watch the answer here. Answer: Terry, you are spot on in the differences between narrow and wide infrasternal angles and the subsequent ability to rotate within the lower thorax. Leverage in the lower thorax is the name of the game, and the obliques are the major players (folks, don't hate the playa tho). Your obliques are some of the largest rotators within the lower thorax. The better these puppies have leverage, the more your rotational chops will be on point. Now the next question should be which obliques have more leverage with each respective infrasternal angle (ISA). AND YOU KNOW I'M GLAD YOU ASKED, FAM! According to this study, drawing a lot from Shirley Sahrmann concepts: the internal oblique has more leverage with wide infrasternal angles. The external oblique has more leverage with narrow infrasternal angles. Now, you need both obliques to perform rotation, so rotational function alone doesn't tell the whole story. What does tell a larger portion of the story is the compressive action on the abdomen. If you compare the attachment points of the external and internal obliques, the external oblique lies more superficial to the ribcage in comparison to the internal oblique. [caption id="attachment_13522" align="aligncenter" width="399"] The big dog, external oblique itself! (Photo credit: Gray's Anatomy)[/caption] External oblique proximal attachment: Outer surface of ribs 5-12 [caption id="attachment_13521" align="aligncenter" width="403"] The good ole' internal oblique (photo credit: Gray's Anatomy)[/caption] Internal oblique proximal attachment:  Deep layer of thoracolumbar fascia, iliac crest, ASIS (peep this anatomy textbook to learn more) These anatomical differences allow the external oblique to generate greater compressive forces in the lower ribcage, contributing to the narrowness of the infrasternal angle. When this muscle contracts, it assists in pushing the viscera downward. If we assume, based on compensatory mechanics, that the infrapubic angle is also in a narrow orientation (and likely structural), the pelvic floor will be eccentrically oriented. This position will allow the viscera to migrate downward, allowing for rotation to occur! The simple reason why narrow ISAs can better rotate: The guts can get out of the way.  Contrast this to the wide ISA folks. The internal obliques have worse leverage to compress the ribcage and push the guts downward. Moreover, the wider infrapubic angle begets a concentric pelvic floor, which pushes the viscera upward. There simply becomes too much visceral interference in the ability to rotate. Wide ISAs can't get guts out of the way. Does this difference mean that there will never be elite wide ISAs in rotational sports? FALSE! In fact, many of the top golfers that I work with at Elevate have a wide ISA presentations. How in the hell does that happen? Structural bias alone doesn't determine success in sport. One thing to consider is the when looking at infrasternal angles, we have only concerned ourselves with rotation at the lower thorax. HOWEVER, rotation occurs throughout the whole body. In sports such as baseball and golf, you have to be able to rotate in the upper thorax, pelvis, axial skeleton, basically everywhere. Each ISA presentation can have restrictions in the ability to rotate in these other areas, contributing to success or lack thereof in the ability to rotate. Moreover, we cannot ignore the skill component needed in these sports. Again, many of our top golfers are hella stiff wide ISAs. It blows my mind how well these guys do at their craft. Some people are so skilled that they find a way to work within their body structure to achieve the desired output. Lastly, considering the heavy narrow ISA bias within the population that Terry helps, I wonder what position many of his athletes play. Someone who has to move a lot within the game, such as an outfielder or shortstop, may be more biased to be narrow. Heavy hitters, first basemen, and catchers? Not so much, as playstyle changes for them, as wider ribcage have greater force production capabilities due to concentric bias within the pelvis. [caption id="attachment_13520" align="alignnone" width="810"] Yeah, definitely not narrow, flaxseed oil aside (photo credit: Kevin Rushforth)[/caption] None of the greats in the steroid era of baseball were narrow ISAs. Pelvis movement during rotational sports Question: What are the Ilial and sacral movements during rotational movements like a golf or baseball swing? Watch the answer here. Answer: The mechanics during a swing are no different than what we see in gait. There is an initial contact, midstance, and propulsive phase in both gait and the swing: Backswing = initial contact Impact = midstance Follow-through = propulsion With these parallels, we can see what is going on with the pelvis at each component: Backswing: Counternutation and sacral rotation toward the back swing. Impact: Backswing-side sacrum begins nutating and rotating away from the back swing. Follow-through: Counternutation and full sacral rotation away from the backswing. Single-arm and leg exercises instead of shifting? Question: Are single-arm and single-leg exercises good forms of shifting without using resets to accomplish this? Watch the answer here. Answer: Short answer: YASSSS. Single-extremity moves are essentially a cheat code to drive anteroposterior expansion, as these movements rotate the axial skeleton. Plus, they are WAYYY easier to coach than most shifting-based work. Let's look at left rotation as an example. You can see how if I turn to the left, I can drive expansion into the left posterior and right anterior aspect of the thorax. These rules also apply to the pelvis regarding expansion. The above action happens when you reach with your right arm OR have your right leg forward ASSUMING that you can maintain the stack. Stacking sets the foundation for rotational actions to occur. If you can't stack and you attempt to rotate, problems and a subsequent compensatory rotation could occur. In the thorax, you may see the following compensations: Crunching, which downs the pump handle and limits rotation Anterior thorax migration, which restricts the posterior thorax At the pelvis, you'll see an anterior pelvic tilt/orientation, which limits rotational capabilities in the pelvis. What skills do each infrasternal angle excel at? Question: What are some skills narrow infrasternal angles would be better at than wides and vice versa? Watch the answer here. Answer: The infrasternal angle changes the relative contractile bias of the ventral cavity. This has to do with how the pelvic floor orientation that each type possesses. Narrow ISA: eccentric bias Wide ISA: concentric bias Because of this, narrows generally have greater eccentric/flexibility capabilities in comparison to wides. Also, because narrower ribcages have a larger surface area in relationship to the volume of abdominal contents, they are generally better at heat dissipation, which can help with endurance activities. Wides, on the other hand, have a greater concentric bias, which is useful in terms of force production. To summarize, here is what each could potentially be biased towards doing well with, with obvious exceptions to the rule (as there are many other influences to movement competency): Narrow ISA: Flexibility-based activities, endurance sports Wide ISA: Power and strength activities Relative motion between femurs and pelvis Question: Will there be a relative motion between the femurs and the whole pelvis or do we lock the hip joint as a whole and only work relatively within the pelvis? What actions would be happening? Watch the answer here. Answer: Given that there is more relative motion available within the hip joint in comparison to the pelvis, the hips are most certainly going to move. The movement that the hips perform depending on what direction my legs need to move. For example, let's say I want to keep my femurs pointing straight forward in a golf swing. If we use the sequencing above in pelvic rotation portion of the debrief, you'd have the following motions occurring. Suppose we are swinging right to left: Backswing: Right hip external rotation, left hip internal rotation Impact: Right hip begins to internally rotate, left hip begins to externally rotate Follow-through: Right hip internally rotates, left hip externally rotates Excessive shoulder external rotation? Question: I work with 99% baseball players. You've talked about using shoulder external rotation at 90 degrees as a proxy for determining a need for expansion in the posterior lower thorax. The majority of my guys are hypermobile in that measurement. However, I still believe there could still be potential restrictions in the lower posterior thorax. Is there another way to assess this? Additionally, is an increase in external rotation for a baseball player still indicative of a posteriorly oriented thorax? Again, thank you for your time and the work you have done! Watch the answer here. Answer: As I have mentioned previously, shoulder external rotation can act as a proxy measure for the ability to expand the ribcage along T6-8 level. In some individuals, the thorax can tilt/orient posteriorly as a unit to compensate for a loss of posterior expansion. [caption id="attachment_12963" align="aligncenter" width="500"] Like this joker[/caption] When the thorax orients posteriorly, the scapula will also externally rotate, retroverting the glenoid and subsequently the humerus. Due to this orientation, someone may be able to pick up shoulder external rotation beyond physiological normal (aka 90°). This change would actually coincide with the humeral retrotorsion often seen in baseball players. (If you want to check out a blog that goes into shoulder motion in baseball players, this one is awesome!). So okay Zac. We know that a baseball player should have a LOT more external rotation available. How do we know if this is a structural issue that we should let chill or if the we need more posterior thorax dynamics. The short answer: Shoulder flexion. If you look at the mechanics of shoulder flexion, you'll note the following ought to be present: Tons of humeral external rotation as I progress through the flexion arc (Yay for baseball players) The scapula progressively upwardly rotates (yeesh!) If I have a posteriorly orientated thorax, concentric bias of the posterior musculature is going to give the scapula a helluva time realizing full upward rotation. Thus, shoulder flexion will be limited in a posteriorly oriented thorax.  Some folks may have enough eccentric bias in the anteroinferior shoulder capsule to give the appearance of full shoulder flexion. You could check lower cervical rotation as well to ensure you are actually getting posterior thorax expansion, as cervical rotation can cross-reference the T2-4 expansion that is also needed in maximal shoulder flexion. If you are limited in shoulder flexion, starting with cross-connect variations can drive expansion in the lower regions of the thorax. Progress this to armbar activities, and NO ONE should mess with you. Sum up Narrow ISAs have better rotational leverage than wide ISAs due to ability to move the viscera. Lower ribcage structure is only one component of rotational success. One must consider the ability to rotate in other areas of the body and sports skill. The pelvis rotates through the swing as it does in gait: counternutation, nutating, then counternutation. Single-arm and leg exercises can drive rotation, which acts as a cheat code to increase anteroposterior expansion in a given area. Narrow ISAs are better at eccentric strategies; wide ISAs are better at concentric strategies. The femurs rotate during the swing. Posterior thorax orientation can give the appearance of humeral external rotation beyond 90 degrees. Shoulder flexion and lower cervical rotation can be used as a test in these individuals, as they are often limited. Image by Keith Johnston from Pixabay

In this episode of Keiser Report, Max and Stacy look at the publicly listed companies taking LBO'ing themselves before private equity gets a chance to do it for them. Meanwhile, private equity is buying up mobile home parks, betting big on declining living standards for ordinary Americans. And ordinary Americans now have fewer stocks to buy as companies take themselves private and leave just the businesses making $30,000 per quarter but with multibillion-dollar valuations. In the second half, Max continues his interview with Dr Michael Hudson of michael-hudson.com about 'super-imperialism' and its decline.

Ms Wides discusses why you should watch 'Work in Progress,' and we all wonder about one of the great mysteries of our time — why Amanda watched all of 'The Witcher,' a show that 100 percent was not made for her. But don't worry; we're moving on from our labored emphasis of the letter W to also talk about 'The L Word' and the fictional, magical, beautiful world it inhabits. Plus, we put in a plug for a new docu-series about cheerleading, and finally talk about a little-known and under-hyped show called 'Succession.' (Yes, Amanda finally watched.) Shows discussed: The Watchmen, The Witcher, Work in Progress, The L Word, Succession, Cheer, [Zoe's Extraordinary Playlist]

On this edition of Brand Spanking New, we explain why Clemson needs to find a new home, why Serbia should be more proud of their home-grown raspberries, and why Brooks Koepka might have lost an award for his role in "Jersey Boys". We also also look into the conceited behavior of sports divas, and what drives them to stab people over a haircut. Also, I totally am on Team Tom.

Action Replay's Extra-time with Darragh Culhane, Billy Keenan, Brein McGinn, Gavin O'Callaghan & Jack O'Toole

Ultimate Fighting Championship fighter Soa Palelei has been asked not to attend a charity event at a children’s hospital in Perth, Australia. Although the sport of Mixed Martial Art is not banned in Western Australia, UFC is, because of the use of a cage in bouts. As such Palelei’s attendance was not seen as having a suitable influence on the children. We hear from the fighter and explore if cage fighting should be banned. From Wickets and Wides to Tackles and Tries Meet Rudie van Vuuren, the only man to play in a Cricket and Rugby World Cup. That was in 2003, when he turned out for Namibia in both tournaments. There were highs and lows. On the cricket field, he took the scalp of Sachin Tendulkar but got hit for 28 in one over by Darren Lehman. On the rugby pitch, he was sitting on the bench injured as Namibia were crushed 142-0 by Australia in a group game. What Links Cricket and Tennis to the Humble Egg? It is the last part of our series looking at the language of sport. Amongst other things we find out what links tennis and cricket to the humble egg, and why a birdie is called a birdie. Simon Horobin professor of English at Oxford University reveals all. Treve's Triple Triomphe Attempt Sunday sees the richest horse race in Europe, the Prix de L'Arc de Triomphe. We hear about Treve the record attempting horse that is not only inspiring music to be written, but confirming a place in history for pioneering female trainer Criquette Head-Maarek. She tells us about overcoming barriers, beating cancer and loving the song dedicated to her horse. Neil Back’s Rugby Premonition Ahead of England’s crunch match with Australia we hear from former England World Cup winner Neil Back, who reveals how he knew from a very early age he was going to play for England (and drive a Porsche!) Indian Rugby Winning the Rugby World Cup is a not something India are likely to achieve in the foreseeable future, but it has strong links to the game. The Calcutta Cup for a start. So can the country one day take on the powerhouses of the game? Sporting Witness In 2005, the Chelsea striker, Didier Drogba, made a dramatic plea for an end to the Civil War in his home country of Ivory Coast. Led by Drogba, the Ivorian national team went on to play their matches on both sides of the front line, in an attempt to help unify the country. Midfielder Gilles Yapi-Yapo explains all.

How can Erica Wides afford two places to live? She doesn’t drink bottled water, or any other bottled beverages for that matter. Let’s Get Real is here to pull you out of that rabbit hole of foodiness, or in this case, drinkiness, that has been perpetuated by beverages that claim to make you smarter, faster, or are ‘enhanced’ with electrolytes and exotic flavors like ‘dragonfruit’. All of this, says Wides, is BS. Tune in for a debunking of drinks such as Gatorade, Neuro, Arizona Green Tea and bottled water like Dasani (it’s actually just tap water from Atlanta!), all of which waste your body’s resources as well as the environment’s. So before reach for that next Vitamin Water at the gas station fridge, listen up and get real about hydration. This episode is sponsored by Fairway Market.
