Arroe Collins: Unplugged & Totally Uncut

A unique and unparalleled look into the nature and relationship of two of the pillars of the NFL's greatest dynasty, the 2001-2018 New England PatriotsThere can be doubt, the greatest dynasty in NFL history stood on two pillars: Bill Belichick and Tom Brady. That is indisputable. Together they forged a working relationship that provided thrilling results that would change the game forever and provide a two-decade-long winning culture not likely to ever be repeated. In those twenty years they helped New England to nine Super Bowls, winning six. But who is/was most responsible? The greatest coach/GM in NFL history? The greatest quarterback (perhaps, greatest player regardless of position) in NFL history? New York Times bestselling author Gary Myers takes the deepest dive yet into a debate that rages to this day in his new book, BRADY vs. BELICHICK: The Dynasty Debate (St. Martin's Press, On Sale September 16, 2025, $31.00).What was the nature of their amazing relationship? Mentor and mentee? Superstar and mad scientist? Phenom and master tactician? Or were they equals? In this fascinating book, veteran NFL insider Gary Myers will draw on the incredible access he has to both subjects as well as scores of players, coaches and management officials. Myers has new interviews with Belichick, Devon McCourty, Rodney Harrison, Julian Edelman, Joe Montana, Tom Brady Sr., and scores more. There is also new material from coaching greats Bill Parcells, Jimmy Johnson, Tony Dungy, and former Pats assistant coaches Charlie Weis and Romeo Crennel, and executives like Ernie Accorsi and Bill Polian.One of the more revealing and compelling chapters in the book is about New York Jets linebacker Mo Lewis, whose sideline hit on then star New England quarterback Drew Bledsoe in 2001 elevated Tom Brady to starting quarterback.and the rest is history. To this day, many fans and haters of New England's success blame Lewis' hit on starting the Patriots dynasty, and Lewis, in the book, doesn't hide his bitter feelings about being tagged with that.In BRADY vs. BELICHICK, Myers goes well into the numbers, analyzing the psychology and sociology of this partnership using his unique perspective to illuminate the greatest duo that ever graced the sport. And who is the most responsible? There is a surprise ending as the reader will discover.

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   Why are there two sides of the fence when it comes to aging?  It’s getting old versus trying all you can to stay young?  Who’s winning?            I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…

Welcome back to the studio.  This is My Day of Play, where you’re taken into the real events and actions of how it happens long before the process of editing or cleaning up.  The original purpose of these episodes was to give my broadcasting students something to edit, to practice with and to call their own.  Then I realized that you are just as important.  Share the reality of how it really went.  We begin things with author actress and director Lucy Lawless star of Xena Warrior Princess.  In November of 2024 she had a new directing project a documentary titled Never Look Away. And we’ll wrap things up with Nikki Watson!  A hardcore podcaster who has set her words free in a new book titled Wake UP To Love. This is My Day of Play.  Completely unedited in the way of meeting the wizard behind the curtain.

Welcome to class! I am your math teacher, Mr. Peters! I know the first day of school can be a bit intimidating, so I’m here to help! Over the summer, I put together this math workbook so you can fully prepare for our final exam by the end of the year. Traditional math prompts are boring, snooze fests, but not mine! My “laugh out loud” math prompts will keep you on the edge of your seat, always wanting to read more! You know, I’ve considered myself a comedian from time to time. Sometimes I think I chose the wrong career path. I could be on stage making people laugh for a living, but here I am teaching you f*cking degenerates. If you're asking yourself why the school board approved this book, they didn’t, so we’re going to have to keep this our little secret. These math prompts will give your grandmother a heart attack, your father cancer, and your mother gonorrhea. 
Show this book to no one outside of this class, and be sure to study with your fellow classmates! Feel free to write in it, draw in it, throw it in a bonfire, do whatever the f*ck you want with it! Just don’t come to my class unprepared or you’ll never see the inside of a college. Don't forget to check out the cheat sheet on the last pages to see if you passed or failed. Enjoy challenging your brain and your morals. Good luck!

The concept of evil is universal, ancient, and ever present today. The biblical book of Genesis clearly defines it when Cain kills his brother Abel out of jealousy. Evil is a choice to make another suffer. As long as human beings have walked, evil has been close by.Confronting Evil by Bill O'Reilly and Josh Hammer recounts the deeds of the worst people in history: Genghis Khan. The Roman Emperor Caligula. Henry VIII. The collective evil of the 19th century slave traders and the 20th century robber barons. Stalin. Hitler. Mao. The Ayatollah Khomeini. Putin. The Mexican drug cartels. Collectively, these warlords, tyrants, businessmen, and criminals are directly responsible for the death and misery of hundreds of millions of people.By telling what they did and why they did it, Confronting Evil explains the struggle between good and evil--a choice every person in the Judeo-Christian tradition is compelled to make. But many defer. We avoid the life decision. We look away. It's easier.Prepare yourself to read the consequences of that inaction. As John Stuart Mill said in his inaugural address to the University of St. Andrews in 1867: "Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing."

When it’s extremely difficult to make up your mind.  Having the power of choice can actually weaken someone.  On this episode we’re going to explore why we’ve made venting acceptable on social media.  Is the big internet monster really the place to make the voice to dump your personal observations? I’m Arroe.  Life is a series of choices.  Who decides when you’re not making it the right choice?  Is it the fear of going wrong?  The greatest lessons in life are often lost inside hidden away attempts and concepts.  It’s time to reopen your heart. Having a choice is a daily gift.  On this highway we learn to trust mirages… What is the choice?

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   Is it a healthy decision to pick up a third and fourth job?  Somone’s got to pay the bills but at what cost?  Plus…what if you decided to rent out part of your home?  Good or bad idea?           I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and deal with it later.  When a subject arrives, I dig in.  It’s still keeping a journal!  By doing the research the picture becomes clearer.  This is the Daily Mess…
