This week I’m joined to talk with Trever Gray (Power Trever) to discuss his recent dip under the American Masters record in the 45-49 age group. We follow that up with some coaching talk as he finishes up a high school season and embarks on coaching a club.

This week on the podcast, Katie Ledecky forces my co-hosts to eat crow, Texas is paying some athletes and whats up with “Coaches Watch?”

Joel and Erik come on to discuss the giant Caeleb Dressel news, as well as Dave Salo dropping in on the Brett Hawke podcast and Kieran Smith’s god mode first day of the Georgia Tech Invite:

In this edition we discuss the departure of Russell Mark from USA Swimming before mourning the loss of the coachless UWGB and dissecting a Race Club "Technique" video.

This week on the pod the whole gang is back and we’re celebrating the coachless horse-people of University of Wisconsin Green Bay, as well as a host of other stories from around the swimming world.

Sharing an update on what I see as the various features of different kinds of swim training.

This week on the Swim Brief, Erik Wiken and a late arriving Joel Rollings commit to discuss more topics but none of them in depth.

This week I am joined by my colleague Jake Shackelford to talk all things USA Swimming: his trip to the National Select Camp, club excellence, and the selection of Maddie Waggoner to the National Junior Team.

This week on the pod Erik Wiken joins me so that I can react to him reacting to Caeleb Dressel reacting to his 100 freestyle. Then we solve world peace, before gossiping about high level athletes changing teams, concluding with rants about Global Supply Chains, and what’s up with swimming in the city of Austin, Texas.

Abi Liu joins me fresh off the USA Swimming National Select Camp. We review the camp as well as her massive change of job in the offseason.
