    Ep 214: 2004/2008 Olympic Medals in the Sock Drawer: Sada Bâby on Fencing, Law & Parenting Young Athletes

    Sada Jacobson Bâby has competed on some of the biggest stages in sports. She represented the United States in fencing at the 2004 and 2008 Olympic Games, won three Olympic medals, became the first American woman to reach No. 1 in the world in fencing, and competed collegiately at Yale. Today, she is a business litigator and partner at Krevolin Horst in Atlanta — and a fencing mom traveling to tournaments with her two sons. Sada joins Sports ’N Torts to talk about the entire journey: discovering fencing at 15, leaving Yale to train full time for the Olympics, competing alongside her sister, winning bronze in Athens, the historic American medal sweep in Beijing, and what life inside the Olympic Village was actually like. She also talks about the transition from elite athlete to law student, finding a new identity after competition, and why she believes nearly everything she needed to know about being a lawyer she learned through fencing. And now that her sons compete, Sada has discovered something surprising: watching her kids fence may be more stressful than competing for an Olympic medal herself. We also get into legal writing, AI, business litigation, New Haven pizza, the Yale-Harvard rivalry, Olympic medals stored in a sock drawer, and Andy Roddick playing Boggle in the Olympic Village. A fun conversation about competition, preparation, perspective, parenting and what comes after reaching the highest level of a sport. SHOW NOTES In this episode: How Sada discovered fencing at age 15 and quickly rose through the sportLeaving Yale to train full time for the 2004 OlympicsCompeting in Athens alongside her younger sister, EmilyRecovering from a semifinal loss to win an Olympic bronze medalReturning for the 2008 Beijing Olympics and the historic U.S. women’s sabre medal sweepWhat life inside the Olympic Village is actually likeWatching the Beijing Opening Ceremony with the U.S. women’s gymnastics teamRunning into athletes like Michael Phelps and Andy RoddickWhy her Olympic medals currently live in a sock drawerWalking away from elite competition and finding a new identityWhy she chose law school and eventually business litigationHer belief that “everything I need to know about being a lawyer I learned from fencing”Preparation, strategy and adjusting to an opponent in both fencing and litigationHow she uses AI in legal research and writingWatching her sons compete and why being a sports parent can be harder than being the athleteNew Haven pizza, Yale vs. Harvard and rapid-fire Olympic questions Sada also explains why the result matters less than the experience for her sons right now — and why her job as a fencing parent is mostly to keep track of the equipment and hand over the water bottle.

    College Football’s Last Call: Week 2 — Georgia Rolls, Texas Survives & Chaos Begins

    College Football’s Last Call is back for Week 2 of the 2026 season. Joshua Stein, Laurence Kessler and Jason Ganz break down what we’ve learned through the first two weeks of college football — and which of their preseason predictions may already be headed for the trash. The guys start in Athens, where Georgia has cruised through its first two games behind an efficient Gunner Stockton, a deep group of playmakers and a defense that has handled its business. They discuss Nate Frazier looking different, the depth at tight end and wide receiver, Georgia’s new white uniforms and whether there is anything to worry about before SEC play begins at Arkansas. Then it’s around the country: Texas survives Ohio State, the Arch Manning debate continues, Clemson may be in serious trouble, Oregon takes a stunning early loss, Michigan creates controversy, Georgia Tech looks headed for a long season, and Miami may have a remarkably clear path through the ACC. Finally, the guys look ahead to Lane Kiffin’s return to Oxford for LSU–Ole Miss, Laurence puts another Sucker Bet on the board, and Jason hands out a crowded field of nominees before crowning his Jimbo of the Week. Two weeks down. Overreactions are officially welcome. On this week’s Last Call: • Georgia rolls through its first two games — what have we actually learned? • Gunner Stockton’s efficiency and Georgia’s growing list of offensive weapons • Nate Frazier looks different • Tight ends, wide receivers and a deep Georgia roster • White uniforms in Athens: crispy or unnecessary? • Georgia heads to Arkansas for its first SEC game • Texas beats Ohio State — impressive win or more questions than answers? • The Arch Manning hype debate continues • Ryan Day and another frustrating Ohio State finish • Is the game passing Dabo Swinney and Clemson by? • Trinidad Chambliss and the early SEC quarterback conversation • Lane Kiffin returns to Oxford as LSU faces Ole Miss • Golf balls, hostile crowds and what could possibly go wrong? • Michigan, Oklahoma and the controversial ending against Western Michigan • Oregon’s early stumble and whether the Ducks should be worried • Georgia Tech could be in for a very long season • Miami’s talent — and its path through the ACC • Notre Dame’s schedule and a possible showdown with Miami • Sucker Bet of the Week and Jimbo of the Week As always, this episode is powered by the J.

    Ep 213 - Jimmy Grant: The Strongman Who Built a Different Kind of Law Firm

    Joshua Stein sits down with James “Jimmy” Grant, co-founder of Georgia Trial Attorneys, for a conversation about building a different kind of law firm, finding your strengths, and the value of genuine relationships. Jimmy shares his path from civil engineering and the marching band at Georgia Tech to prosecution, personal injury litigation, and eventually starting a firm with partner Mark Kirchen. He explains how a pivotal business-coaching conversation led them to abandon the traditional personal injury model and focus exclusively on serving as the outsourced litigation department for other firms. GTA has since grown from six partner firms in 2021 to 98 at the time of recording. The conversation explores why Jimmy and Mark took on different roles, why Jimmy now focuses primarily on sales and business development, and how simple, consistent relationship-building continues to drive the firm's growth. The conversation also moves well beyond the law. Jimmy talks about becoming a competitive strongman, finishing 12th at America's Strongest Master, and growing up as the son of accomplished golfer Jim Grant, the low amateur at the 1966 Masters. He shares stories from caddying for his father at the 1999 U.S. Senior Open, the lessons he has carried from sports into business, and why he is perfectly comfortable being the lawyer whose website photo features a Flash T-shirt. SHOW NOTES From Georgia Tech engineering and marching band to prosecution and personal injury law.Starting Georgia Trial Attorneys with Mark Kirchen in a basement, with no clients or referral sources.The 2021 coaching conversation that led GTA to focus exclusively on outsourced litigation.Growing from six partner firms to 98, and why smaller personal injury firms are a natural fit for the model.How Jimmy and Mark learned to divide responsibilities around their different strengths.Why Jimmy stepped away from daily casework to focus on sales, marketing, and business development.The power of consistent relationship-building: lunches, golf, follow-up, and delivering on your promises.Why Jimmy believes an email newsletter should provide useful value rather than simply create more noise.GTA's approach to difficult, smaller-value cases and preserving the originating lawyer's relationship with the client.Running a virtual law firm, measuring results instead of time, and using AI without outsourcing professional judgment.Jimmy's perspective on Georgia tort reform and what GTA has observed in its own case numbers.The Flash T-shirt, competitive strongman, and finishing 12th at America's Strongest Master.Growing up with Jim Grant, the 1966 Masters low amateur, and caddying for his father at the 1999 U.S. Senior Open.The Flash Lightning Round: Georgia Tech, golf, strongman, business-development rankings, and the pursuit of partner firm #100.

    Ep 212 - College Football Is Back! 2026 Season Preview with Jason Ganz & Laurence Kessler

    College football is back—and so are Jason Ganz and Laurence Kessler for our annual Sports ‘N Torts season preview. We kick off Season 6 by trying to make sense of the current state of college football: NIL, the transfer portal, revenue sharing, eligibility lawsuits, NFL players trying to return to college, and the increasingly legitimate question of whether anyone is actually in charge. From there, we turn our attention to Georgia and break down Gunner Stockton, the running backs, questions at wide receiver, a loaded tight end room, an offensive line we think could be the best in the country, and a defense loaded with future NFL talent. Then we take the full tour around college football: Is Texas overrated again? Is Alabama still Alabama? What does Ole Miss look like without Lane Kiffin? Can Kiffin turn LSU into an immediate contender? Is Penn State actually going to prove Jason and Laurence right for once? Is Notre Dame getting special treatment? And has the Big Ten officially caught—or passed—the SEC? Finally, we put the predictions in the vault: 12-team playoff fields, national championship picks, Heisman candidates and a few takes we're almost certain to regret. Somehow, after five years and 15 opportunities to pick a national champion, all three of us are once again riding with the Georgia Bulldogs. College football is back. We are so back.

Aubone — Director of Player & Coach Relations and media host/commentator for Intennse Tennis— to discuss how a new league is trying to completely reinvent the sport of tennis.

    On this episode of Sports ’N Torts, Joshua Stein is joined by his longtime friend Marc Glickman for a full recap of their unforgettable 8 man golf trip to Pebble Beach Golf Links and the Monterey Peninsula for Marc and Mike Peckham's 50th Birthday. What starts as a conversation about bucket-list golf quickly turns into a hilarious and detailed breakdown of one of the most memorable sports weekends either of them has ever experienced. The two relive every part of the trip — from TSA chaos during a government shutdown, to arriving at Pebble Beach for the first time, to walking the iconic 18th fairway after dark with beers in hand. They discuss the surreal feeling of standing on golf holes they had only seen on television, the unmatched beauty of the Pacific coastline, and the pressure of trying to actually play well on one of the most famous courses in the world. Marc shares the story of his incredible opening round at Pebble Beach, including a front-nine 37, clutch bunker shots, and a closing birdie on the iconic 18th hole. The conversation also dives into the strategy, nerves, camaraderie, gambling, caddie advice, and mental battles that come with a true golf buddies trip. The highlight of the episode comes during the group’s round at Poppy Hills Golf Course when Marc records the first hole-in-one of his life on the 11th hole — a perfectly struck 146-yard seven iron that disappeared into the cup. Josh and Marc relive the moment shot-by-shot, including the sprint to the green, the celebration that followed, and the legendary “hole-in-one tax” that carried into the evening. The episode is part golf storytelling, part friendship documentary, and part celebration of why experiences like these matter.

    Ep 208 - Preconditioning the Win: Mastering Mediation While Enjoying Life and Embracing its Final Lasts with Greg Parent

    In this returning fan-favorite episode, Josh sits down with mediator Greg Parent for a wide-ranging conversation that blends law, life, and perspective in a way only Sports ‘N Torts can. Greg pulls back the curtain on what really makes mediation work—not legal brilliance, but human connection, emotional intelligence, and preparation before anyone ever walks into the room. He shares why the best mediators act more like performers than negotiators, how “preconditioning” a case can make or break a mediation, and what lawyers get wrong about position statements. But this episode goes far beyond the courtroom. Greg opens up about his personal health transformation, losing over 60 pounds and challenging the stigma around weight-loss medication. He also reflects on fatherhood, the emotional weight of “final lasts” with kids heading off to college, and why being present as a parent matters more than anything in your career. From courtside seats at Atlanta Hawks games to UNC vs. Georgia family rivalries, this episode is equal parts practical insight, humor, and real-life perspective. If you’re a lawyer, parent, or just someone trying to do life a little better—this one hits home. 📝 Show Notes 🔹 Guest Introduction Greg Parent returns to the podcast—award-winning mediator with Miles Mediation & Arbitration Known across Atlanta’s legal community for his energy, authenticity, and results UNC superfan, Hawks courtside regular, and self-proclaimed “people-first” mediator ⚖️ Mediation Masterclass: What Actually Works Mediation is performance, not just negotiation Greg compares mediators to rock stars and late-night hosts The goal: make each client feel seen, heard, and understood immediately You have 30 seconds to win trust Especially with plaintiffs experiencing one of the worst days of their lives Human connection > legal arguments EQ over IQ Lawyers already know the law Mediators add value through perspective, communication, and emotional awareness 🔥 The “Preconditioning” Strategy (Game-Changer) Borrowed from Greg’s Tesla analogy: prepare the “battery” before mediation Key takeaway: Talk to opposing counsel BEFORE mediation Align expectations Avoid “let’s just see where they’re at” mediations Josh’s approach: Inviting opposing counsel to lunch early in the case Builds rapport → reduces friction → better outcomes 📄 What Makes a Great Mediation Statement? What Greg actually wants: Clear facts of the case Unique issues or nuances Client personality + challenges Anything that impacts how he should approach the room What he does NOT need: 20+ pages of legal exposition Basic black-letter law 🧠 Inside the Mediator’s Mind Greg can identify weaknesses instantly (“Achilles heel” analogy) But the real skill is finding common ground, not exploiting weaknesses Transparency builds trust—even when delivering tough messages ⚖️ Mediation vs. Arbitration Mediation: facilitator (assistant coach) Arbitration: decision-maker (judge) In mediation, the lawyer always has final say—mediator guides, not decides 💪 Greg’s Health Transformation Lost 60+ pounds (263 → ~201) Uses Tirzepatide + disciplined lifestyle changes Tracks nutrition, lifts weights, plays pickleball, stays active Key mindset shift: Addressing stigma around weight-loss medications Comparing it to addiction recovery—both deserve support, not judgment 👔 Evolution of the Mediator Look Transition from suit-and-tie to more approachable style Goal: reduce intimidation, especially for plaintiffs “Be Mr. Rogers, not Gordon Gekko” 🎓 Mentorship & Giving Back Greg embraces role as mentor (“Luke Skywalker to Yoda transition”) Helps younger lawyers avoid common mistakes Focus on professionalism, relationships, and long-term reputation 👨‍👧‍👦 Parenting & “The Final Lasts” One of the most powerful parts of the episode: Greg’s son at UNC, daughter heading to Georgia Emotional reflection on final games, final seasons, final moments Key quote takeaway: “You don’t have to go to practice—you GET to go to practice.” Importance of being present Coaching, photographing, supporting kids Perspective shift that changed everything 🏀 Sports, Life & Fun UNC fandom vs. new Georgia household dynamics Hawks courtside experiences and networking Why shared experiences (sports, school, family) build stronger connections 🎯 Key Takeaways Mediation is a people business first Preconditioning a case is critical Relationships reduce friction and improve outcomes Authenticity beats transactional behavior Success in law doesn’t mean missing life at home As always, this episode is powered by the J.
