The Final Push | Week 9 Football, The 24-Hour Rule & WOO Turkey Drive | (EP. 20)
In Episode 20 of New Wave Certified, John Larkin brings it all together as the Iowa high school football regular season hits its final week. He recaps the hard-fought Week 8 matchup between Iowa City West and Cedar Rapids Prairie, then previews Week 9, where top-ranked teams battle for playoff positioning and a shot at championship glory.
But this episode is about more than stats and scores — it’s about mindset. John breaks down the “24-Hour Rule” — a powerful concept for athletes and everyday people alike: win or lose, celebrate or grieve for a day, then get back to the grind. It’s about valuing the process, staying consistent, and preparing for whatever comes next.
John also takes a moment to recognize the senior athletes playing their final regular season games, reminding listeners to make every rep, play, and moment count. To close, he highlights the impact of his nonprofit, The Wave of Opportunity Foundation, and their upcoming Annual Turkey Drive happening the Saturday before Thanksgiving — a chance to give back and serve the community.
This is more than a football podcast — it’s a masterclass in perseverance, purpose, and playing the long game. 🏈💪
