In this episode, the Coach and Derrick reflect on their Cannonball anniversary plans that never happened, then dive into health updates: Coach Camp describes his knee surgery, the long fasting wait at the surgery center, and a post-op “truth serum” fog that led to a chaotic trip home featuring road debris, a flat tire, a police officer changing the tire, and then a second flat when the donut was destroyed—yet he still kept his daily two-mile walking streak and started PT after chasing down missing orders. Derrick shares ongoing post-prostatectomy issues, and the need to self-advocate through slow medical scheduling. They also celebrate Derrick’s daughter Skylar turning 18, her hibachi plans, and starting cosmetology-related studies at Northwest, plus a humorous parenting story about explaining “democratic socialist” economics with a hot dog stand example that ends in an unexpected twerking punchline.

Coach Camp and Derrick are finally back together at SRP Studios after missing a week—and naturally, things immediately go off the rails. They discuss mysterious gifts, “unicorn” Saturdays, apartment life at The Magnolias in Hernando, rapidly multiplying rent prices, and the possibility of Zach Camp becoming the newest neighbor.

Then things take a turn into The Prostatectomy Chronicles, as Derrick provides another update on his recovery, including clotting, trouble urinating, an ER visit, a CT scan that basically said “looks fine,” and his desperate quest to get some actual urologist attention. Pelvic-floor PT also makes an appearance, with the strategy changing from “make it stronger!” to “EVERYBODY RELAX!” thanks to a hypertonic pelvic floor.

Meanwhile, Coach is having his own personal crisis: a five-plus-year DAILY running streak is staring down the barrel of knee surgery. With an MCL repair and arthritis cleanup on the schedule, Coach is more concerned about losing his streak than the fact that someone is about to rearrange his knee. Add in some pre-op communication frustrations, and you've got one stressed-out runner.

The guys also celebrate the REAL Cannonball anniversary, talk about closing on a lake house, senior-year school changes, some “pleading the Fifth” news, answer listener questions, and somehow end up discussing an absolutely glorious Ambien text.

It's another episode featuring surgery, real estate, running, pee problems, questionable medications, and two grown men trying to make sense of life.

Basically… Cannonballing Life.

After nearly a month off, Derrick and Coach return to Cannonballing Life and catch up on Derrick’s post-prostatectomy recovery, including ongoing discomfort after catheter removal, while noting he feels better getting back to normal life and recording again. They share show updates, ways to connect and support the podcast, and discuss Coach's frustration with Facebook group admins who delete positive posts. Coach then reveals a major surprise: he and Alicia(fly swatter lady) bought a fully furnished, two-year-old lakefront house at Greers Ferry, Arkansas, planning to VRBO/Airbnb it, close on August 15, and celebrate his birthday there with his kids, while meeting second-residence requirements and using existing equity to make it work. They wrap with gym etiquette pet peeves and upcoming speaking dates.

In this episode of Cannonball Life, Derrick and Coach Camp talk about spontaneity, including trying a Dunkin’ “strawberry cloud matcha,” then recap Coach Camp’s lead-off keynote at the Mississippi Educators’ Conference in Jackson, where he shared his background, emphasized that everyone is capable of taking “one more step,” and ended with a call-and-response and music cue. They discuss upcoming Hope Center leadership events on August 1 (Southaven) and August 15 (Olive Branch). Derrick describes his first colonoscopy, the prep, and results showing five polyps sent for biopsy with a recommended three-year follow-up. The biggest update is Derrick’s prostate cancer diagnosis (May 11), symptoms, PSA spike, family history, PET scan results, and decision for prostate removal surgery on July 2, plus expected recovery and a planned show break while encouraging men to get checked.

Coach and Derrick return for Episode 91 after Coach’s five-night Belize trip. They discuss travel anxiety and how flight attendants helped Coach manage his pre-flight nerves, then compare Belize’s strict passport checks with the ease of re-entering the U.S. Coach shares highlights and mishaps from an off-the-grid house reached by long golf-cart rides in the dark, including a scorpion in the bedroom and a massive mosquito swarm during a sunset grocery run. He recounts snorkeling the barrier reef, swimming near nurse sharks, and enjoying local food like stewed chicken, rice and beans, plantains, shrimp, and whole fish. A last-minute decision to stay an extra day proved crucial when the house lost power overnight and their original Friday flight was delayed seven hours, which they avoided.

In episode 90, Coach and Derrick riff through unscripted updates, including Coach’s upcoming weeklong family vacation to Belize and what he learned from YouTube research: English-speaking culture, a 2-to-1 currency exchange, limited cell service unless you pay, island travel by golf cart, snorkeling near the barrier reef, cave tubing, and zip-lining. The conversation also covers senior pictures and the emotions of kids growing up, Maddie’s tire blowout and “welcome to life” lessons, birthdays in the family, Coach trying red light therapy at the gym, and his commitment to daily two-mile runs—including a conference jog that left him drenched and a treadmill finish just before the power went out, disrupting his CPAP.

Coach and Derrick open with updates and promotions, joking about low energy during downtime, gym routines, sleep habits, and needing background noise to sleep. They discuss “life comes at you fast,” highlighted by Skylar Glynn Michaud’s Hernando High School graduation (class of 2026) at the Landers Center, including emotional moments, Principal Case’s retirement announcement, and a standout audience reaction for graduate Shelby. Coach shares mishaps involving an inversion table accident and a spider encounter while cutting grass. Derrick recounts being rear-ended on I-240 on the way to a Pink Floyd tribute gig, dealing with a driver who had no insurance or license and fled before police arrived, later learning the plate didn’t match the car. They share a fire-department fender-bender/insurance-fraud story, discuss learning new Pink Floyd songs, upcoming dates, June birthdays, Belize travel plans, and answer listener mail about starting a monogramming business.

In this episode, the hosts riff on “OnlyHaters,” then launch into a rant about how people rush to judge others—citing a local elected official’s DUI situation, wrongful convictions, and the “court of public opinion”—and criticize online dogpiling on community pages and unfair public attacks on small businesses and reviews. They debate Jeep “ducking” and waves, arguing only Wranglers count, and joke about dashboard trophies for animals hit. They complain about New York City tolls and a $15 congestion charge billed through a rental car, and recall an out-of-state ticket that had to be paid immediately via a card machine. The tone shifts to local highlights: the Hernando Lady Tigers softball team winning another state championship, a powder puff football game with football players as cheerleaders, and Coach Camp joining a Colonial Hills church men’s softball league. They close with listener questions about dating an alien and choosing what to be “attacked” by, plus plugs for SRP Studios and Motivate with Coach Camp.

The show starts with Coach dramatically ripping open his button-up to reveal new Cannonballing Life T-shirts. They explain where to buy the $15 shirts, credit local maker Amy Lofton of Happy Chick, and discuss expanding to hats and mugs, etc. The conversation shifts to workouts, running five miles around Hernando, and the irony of hunting for the closest gym parking spot, plus stories about confusing medical-office parking, cart corrals, and a Kroger parking-lot rant. Derrick shares frustrations with Zoom customer support and an AI assistant call, leading to the workaround of replacing his debit card to stop renewals. Coach’s wife Alicia(flyswatter lady) unexpectedly joins, talks about her new haircut, animal encounters with her Jeep, and family end-of-school emotions.
