    Epic Bill Bradley

    Bill Bradley is an ultra-endurance athlete with events like the 135-mile Bad Water ultramarathon under his belt. He even went back and completed the double Badwater. Then he completed the quadruple Badwater and is one of only 4 people ever to do it. Bill made 9 attempts at Arrowhead 135. A 135-mile foot race through the snow in subzero temperatures. He is currently preparing for his 6th attempt at the English Channel swim. Bill’s motto is “Show up and suffer”. “If you want a big life and you want to achieve some things and inspire other people, you need to go after big goals. And when you go after big goals you can fail. Trust me, I probably have more fails than most people, it doesn’t stop me.” Links Watch the film “Epic Bill” on September 13th at 8 pm pacific on KQED 9 here: Watch the Trailer Read the KQED Article about the documentary “Epic Bill” https://www.epicbillfilm.com/ https://www.instagram.com/epic_bill_film/ Films coming out next year Climbing Into Fear Pushing Mercury

  2. Christian Campbell

    Christian Campbell

    Christian Campbell is my guest today and we are discussing his plans to qualify and compete in the Olympics as a boxer. He is also an active duty officer which leads to some great conversation about all the elements that have come into play as he balances his duties with his passion - our favorite subject here at On My Own Dime! We identify some key components of adversity in any pursuit: hard work is not an entitlement to success, recognizing controllable elements when planning, and accepting the risk of uncontrollable elements when executing a plan. Christian sparred with UFC Champion Nate Diaz during his prep for Jake Paul. He is attending a team training in Australia soon too so this is a very exciting time to speak with him!

    Coco Peila (2 of 2)

    We are back for part 2 with MC, vocalist, songwriter, producer, and cultural organizer Coco Piela. If you didn't catch part 1 last week go back and hear what you missed first! Her new EP just dropped this month. It's Called "Confessions of a Black Feminist Rapper Part 3".  She is probably best known right now for an amazing song about reproductive justice called "I Am Jane Roe". She weaves through pop culture and political history addressing the overturning of Roe V Wade. Coco was featured in an article by KQED in June discussing the song and the long history of hip-hop artists weighing in on the subject of reproductive rights.  She is the founder of Black Gold Movement, a grassroots organization whose mission is to reverse the flow of resources from the West back to Africa along the transatlantic slave trade routes through Hip Hop, Storytelling, and music of the African Diaspora.
