November 05, 2025Proof: Multi-Sport Athletes Win! EP 77
Ask a question for the show
Built Different: Why Multi-Sport Athletes Win
In this episode, Drew breaks down why playing multiple sports is one of the greatest advantages young athletes can have — physically, mentally, and emotionally.
We cover the three key questions every parent and athlete should ask:
Age: When to explore and when to specialize
End Goal: College dreams? Pro aspirations? Just love the game?
Health: Avoiding overuse injuries & burnout
Drew shares his own path as a multi-sport athlete — football, baseball, basketball — and how waiting to specialize led to becoming a 4-star recruit with 26 scholarship offers coming out of Denver, Colorado.
Versatility builds better athletes. Specialization can wait.
Perfect for parents, coaches, and athletes navigating the modern youth sports culture.

A nostalgic look at Halloween from childhood to adulthood — the movies that shaped us, the costumes, the candy, and how the holiday hits differently now. We also tap into ghosts, demons, and that mysterious space between the seen and unseen. Fun, a little spooky, and full of real-life reflection.

October 27, 2025The Bag Don’t Lie: College Head Coach Buyouts in 2025 EP 73
Ask a question for the show
In this episode, we break down the latest bombshell in college football — LSU parting ways with Brian Kelly and owing him roughly $54 million to walk away. Yep, you read that right: fifty-four million reasons to say “cash me out.”
We talk about how the college football landscape is shifting fast — where boosters have more power than ever, athletic departments are operating like Fortune 500s, and the phrase “no matter the cost” has become the new playbook. From NIL to buyouts, this is the business of college football in 2025 — where loyalty is optional, but the check always clears.
💬 Listen in for:
The ripple effect of Brian Kelly’s buyout
Why boosters are shaping the game behind the scenes
How the “cash me out” mindset defines the modern era of college sports

October 24, 2025Not Ready for Life: The Declaration Too Many Athletes Make! EP 72
Ask a question for the show
In this episode, I talk about a truth many athletes face — realizing too late that they weren’t prepared for life after the game.
I share how an unexpected injury at the University of Oregon shifted my mindset from just being an athlete to developing as a young man — lessons that carried into my time in the NFL.
This message is for student and professional athletes: don’t wait until it’s over to say, “I wasn’t ready.”
Start exploring your passions, building skills, and speaking up about what you want — now.

Takeaways:
Why athletic programs alone can’t prepare you for life.
How adversity can spark growth and purpose.
The power of curiosity, communication, and self-development beyond the game.
🎧 A short, honest reminder that your career ends — but your life doesn’t. Prepare now.
