Grabbing the Bullhorn

As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, Grabbing the Bullhorn explores what happens when the world comes to America—and what Americans can learn in return.

Natalie Bober and Karen Zimbler welcome Chris Childers, co-host of Full Ride on SiriusXM, host of Show Pony Live, professor and author of Love Thy Neighbor. Actually Do It.

Chris reflects on his unforgettable experience at the FIFA Club World Cup, where a match between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Uzbekistan became a powerful reminder that sports can unite people across cultures, languages and backgrounds. Chris discusses hospitality, curiosity, fatherhood, the American experience and why the simple act of getting to know one another may be one of the greatest lessons of America’s 250th year.

Whether you’re a soccer fan, a sports fan or simply someone who believes in the power of human connection, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

What’s one place, tradition or experience that makes you proud to call America home?

Welcome to Grabbing the Bullhorn, the podcast where generations collide, conversations get real and no topic is off limits.

Hosted by Natalie Bober, a Millennial, and Karen Zimbler, a Baby Boomer, Grabbing the Bullhorn explores the stories shaping our world through two different generations and two unique perspectives.

From sports and politics to television, entertainment, breaking news, current events and culture, we tackle the conversations everyone is having—and sometimes the ones nobody wants to have.

Our goal isn't to tell you what to think. Rather, our goal is to encourage thoughtful conversation, respectful debate and a willingness to listen to different points of view. Everything discussed on this podcast reflects our personal opinions and experiences. 

We are not claiming to have all the answers, and we know you may not always agree with us—and that's okay. We believe the best conversations happen when people can share ideas respectfully and learn from one another.

Whether you're a Baby Boomer, Gen X, a Millennial, Gen Z or anywhere in between, there is a place for you here.

Join the conversation each week by following the show, leaving a rating or a review, and sharing your thoughts with us.

Grabbing the Bullhorn—where every generation gets a voice, and every topic gets a conversation.
