Max shares his experience founding City League, a local nonprofit bringing back competitive, affordable, community-driven sports for kids.

What if the chaos on the sidelines could be replaced with calm, connection, and character-building moments? In this profoundly insightful episode, we sit down with Jonathan Carone, the creator of Healthy Sports Parents, a fast-growing podcast and social media movement that's transforming how we view youth sports. With over 70,000 followers and 2 million monthly views, Jonathan's message is clear: youth sports are not about raising great athletes — they're about raising great humans. From sideline meltdowns to teachable moments, he shares how sports can become a virtual classroom for life, teaching resilience, teamwork, responsibility, and emotional intelligence. Whether you're a parent, coach, or simply someone who's seen a youth game go off the rails, this episode will leave you inspired to shift your mindset and parent with intention — from the bleachers and beyond. You'll also hear about his upcoming book, The Sideline Survival Guide, and how a side project grew into a national movement with endorsements from Olympians and Division 1 coaches. Key Takeaways: Youth sports should be a classroom, not a competition. Emotional chaos on the sidelines affects kids deeply — awareness is key. Parenting from the sidelines means cheering, not coaching. Empathy and self-awareness lead to better sideline behavior. Responsibility and resilience are the real trophies of youth sports. The 10 Commandments of Healthy Sports Parenting are changing lives. Generational impact starts with you showing up differently today.

Being a parent in youth sports is… a lot. One day you're cheering on your kid for picking clovers in the outfield, the next you're asking yourself: “Is my kid… special?” and googling special clinics in the area. We've been through the highs and lows, and that's why we were so excited to sit down with former NFL All-Pro and award-winning broadcaster Greg Olsen in today's show. Greg is on a mission to make youth sports healthier and more balanced through his platform Youth Inc. He knows both sides of the game: he was part of that 0.02% who actually made it to the pros, and now he's a dad coaching kids in today's pressure-packed youth leagues.We talk about what's broken (spoiler: it's mostly us parents), how to keep sports fun for kids, and what Greg would do if he were the “czar” of youth sports. He also shares how he personally dealt with career setbacks (yes, even after Super Bowls and broadcast booths), and why the real goal in sports isn't the scholarship or the contract—it's the process of showing up and growing. Stay tuned for Penn's Top 5 Changes to Youth Sports at the end. Maybe you'll start keeping Penn points for your kids games!

Youth sports have evolved from casual neighborhood games to a multi-billion-dollar industry where kids are often treated as commodities. In this episode, Brian Smith and Ed Uszynski, authors of Away Game: A Christian Parent's Guide to Navigating Youth Sports, delve into how today's sports culture is pressuring kids to perform rather than enjoy play. They reflect on the rise of elite programs, the loss of amateurism, and the overwhelming influence of money on what was once a simple, joyful part of childhood. With raw honesty, they discuss the impact of this commercialization on kids' mental health, relationships, and desire to continue participating in sports. As parents, we are often caught in a cycle of pushing our kids to be the best, sometimes at the expense of their happiness and self-worth. Brian and Ed share the “silent killer” of kids' love for sports— the dreaded car ride home after the game, where criticism often replaces celebration. They discuss why it's crucial to shift the focus from winning at all costs to fostering character, emotional resilience, and healthy self-expression. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation about reclaiming joy, the importance of play, and how we, as parents, can break free from the youth sports industrial complex to allow our children to truly thrive.

Jeff and Britt launch Season 4 of the show looking back at some of the best moments in Season 3 and sharing some of the exciting plans for the next year. In addition, the guys have a rich discussion about the different phases of the youth sports journey...the Getting Started phase, the Getting Serious phase, and the All In phase. The guys share how they define each phase as well as what goals parents and kids should be pursuing in each of these phases. Too many times today, we tend to seek goals in the early phases that can't be realized until the latter part of the journey, robbing some of the fun out of the journey for both kids and parents. Taking the time to understand what the goals in each phase should be helps us gain perspective on how to be more effective sports parents. The guys also discuss the challenges in each phase - yes, each phase has them - and the wins, or positive opportunities that each phase provides for young athletes and families. As school starts back, this is a great topic to ponder and reset your priorities for sports parenting in the coming year, based on the phase your young athlete is in.
Youth sports are shaping our kids' lives in profound ways.
