  • Amun Cosme: Professional MMA Fighter | United Fight League

    Amun is a new fighter in the UFL (United Fight League) which we learned about in a few episodes back with Harrison Rogers, but he's not new to the fight game altogether. Amun is joining the show to talk about his very diverse sports / athletic background, and discuss his journey to becoming a professional MMA Fighter.

    In his last fight, during UFL 1, he fought another guest of ours, Jackson Filho and we'll discuss the way that fight went down as well!

    Stay tuned to find out more of Amun's opinions on the UFL and the structure they have to provide health care for their fighters. Amun will open up about that part of the sport and how that impacted his training overall! You don't want to miss it!

    Again, apologies are given for my audio (on my side) of the interview as there were connection issues during the recording

    If you'd like to follow Amun on his journey, make sure to check out his social media pages!!

    Some interviews are simply different.

    For Shane Larson, this was one of them.

    Eddie George wasn't just another guest on The Gametime Guru Podcast. He was Shane's childhood sports hero and the reason he became an Ohio State Buckeyes fan.

    In this in-depth conversation, Eddie reflects on the mindset that transformed him from a determined young athlete into one of football's most respected leaders.

    From winning the 1995 Heisman Trophy to becoming an NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, earning four Pro Bowl selections, playing in Super Bowl XXXIV with the Tennessee Titans and leading college football programs as a head coach, Eddie shares the lessons that continue to shape his life and leadership.

    In this episode:
    • Growing up in Philadelphia
    • Why every football player should run track
    • The surprising impact ballet had on his football career
    • Winning the Heisman Trophy at Ohio State
    • Transitioning to the NFL
    • Lessons from Steve McNair
    • The Music City Miracle & Super Bowl XXXIV
    • Leadership, discipline and resilience
    • Building culture as a college football head coach
    • The future of NIL in college athletics
    • Financial literacy for athletes
    • Books, podcasts and leadership resources Eddie recommends

    If you're passionate about football, leadership, coaching, personal growth or high performance, this conversation offers valuable lessons that reach far beyond the game.

  • Sting Ray Robb and Andrew Anderson - IndyCar Driver and His Coach!

  • "Samurai" Jackson Santa Cruz Filho - Mixed Martial Arts

    Jack "Samurai" is prepping for UFL 1 (United Fight League) which will be this upcoming weekend, and he's here to share his story so we can learn about him as a fighter.

    Jackson is from Brazil where he really took a liking to the sport of Jiu Jitsu. Later on, he became a more well-rounded fighter as he trained boxing, Muay Thai, and more! Now he's in the States and ready to roll in his division.

    It's a great opportunity to learn today about the UFL as well as what Jackson can bring to the table as a fighter. We'll hear his predictions and what we can expect from him in the cage.

    We'll learn where his nickname came from and why it's a funny story!

    I have a massive respect for fighters at every level. Once you hear from Jackson you will have a respect for him too!

  • Jaxton Mortensen - Professional Bull Rider

    It's not easy to stay on a bull for 8 seconds. It's not something everyone wants to do, nor is it something the 'regular' person is cut out for. Today we get to hear from the young man, Jaxton Mortensen, about his career thus far as a professional bull rider.

    In this amazing conversation, you'll get to learn about the comparison between rodeo and other traditional sports. We'll talk about his mindset, and pre-ride routines. How does he get ready and prepared for what he's about to do? Who are his biggest mentors and what has he learned from them? Has he suffered any injuries? And how does he battle back from those?

    So much to learn from Jaxton in this interview, and I promise once you listen to the show, you too, will become a major fan of his!

  • Ricky Williams - Heisman Trophy, NFL, and Business

    Ricky Williams was always one of my all-time favorite runningbacks in the NFL. He had the swag before the 'swag was cool' and he was the one we all wanted to play with on Madden!

    What intrigued me about Ricky, was his desire to be true to himself and his own beliefs, even if that meant being different than others. I first learned this during the 30 for 30 Documentary on ESPN, and then learned more about this during our interview!

    Listen in today and learn from Ricky Williams about his football career, the life lessons he took from his journey, as well as what he's doing now in his business world.

  • Kiara Feibusch - Women's Lacrosse at Pitt and Overcoming the Battles of Depression

    What an incredible opportunity we have today to hear from Division 1 Lacrosse Player, from the University of Pittsburgh, Kiara Feibusch.

    We'll tap into the sports side of this conversation where Kiara helps us with understanding what the lacrosse world is truly like. We'll chat about club/travel team lacrosse compared to that of normal high school lacrosse. She'll give us all some advice on the recruiting process of lacrosse so we know what goes on behind the scenes and what other younger athletes should be doing in order to get in front of the coaches they want to play for. We'll get to hear of her favorite memories and advice on mastering the basics so you have a solid foundation of your sport.

    Today's conversation is even more powerful because we will tap into the topic of mental health as it's a huge part of Kiara's story. I first was able to see her story on The Hidden Opponent where I learned of her silent struggle with depression and how she overcame that. Today on the show, she'll open up about that struggle so our audience can learn more about it. Our hope with this piece of the conversation, is for young athletes and even those around them such as parents, coaches, etc. can have an understanding of what to look for in those battling with their mental health, as well as what resources are availbale (or should be available) for them to overcome those battles.

    You're absolutely going to love this interview! All I ask for in return, is that to show your support of Kiara and the show, is to leave us a review on Apple Podcasts! If you leave us a review, it can get out to more and more people! :) Thank you so much for your support!
