The Gametime Guru Shane Larson

**Note the sound is terrible on my end as the connection was bad, but we've fixed that for all future episodes moving forward. Mike's sound is fantastic though and should be good to go**
From having everything, to losing it all, to now making it back and sharing his knowledge with the rest of us. 
Mike Gibson is a retired NFL lineman, and now the Director of Community Outreach at The Mental Health Center of San Diego and Healthy Life Recovery. (mhcsandiego.com ) 
In our interview, Mike will be chatting with us regarding his football career. The ups and downs. The Junior College to D1 route he took. What he learned through that process, and what the transitions were like from JUCO to D1, and then we will also learn of the transition to the NFL where Mike played for 6 years. 
In Mike's third year in the NFL, he suffered an injury that required a big recovery. This is when Mike's story took a turn as he became addicted to pain killers. This addiction continued to get worse and worse, as his body became chemically dependent on some of these substances and he found himself in a downward spiral that continued not only through the remainder of his NFL career, but after he retired from the game as well. 
This is a story of addiction, of perserverance, of recovery, and redemption!
It also goes to show that it can truly happen to anyone at any moment, so it's wise to become familiar with the situation and with Mike's story as it has the potential to help thousands of listeners out there!

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

Note: Please be patient with the audio difficulties coming from my end on this interview. There appeared to be some issues with the internet connection when doing this interview
Eddie George is my DREAM INTERVIEW!! He was THE reason I became an Ohio State Buckeyes fan back when I was seven years old, and I am beyond excited to share this interview with you guys today. 
In this discussion, you're going to learn a lot about his career at Ohio State, and what it was like playing in Columbus during his college years. 
We'll chat about the life lessons he took from his playing days in the NFL, including what he learned in the Super Bowl loss to the Rams when the Titans came up one-yard short! 
We will also get to hear about what he's taken from the sport to his coaching career, where he now is the head coach of the Tennessee State football program! 
If you stay until the end of the interview, you'll get to hear some of the suggestions of books, podcasts, and apps that Eddie enjoys for his own personal growth! 
I hope you enjoy this intervieww as I share my passion and my favorite player from when I was a kid, with the rest of the world. 
Again, I apologize for the audio problems on my end during the interview, but it's a great thing the majority of this discussion is Eddie sharing his insight anyway :)

I met Andrew Anderson a few years back when my best friend had gifted me an opportunity to be coached by Andrew and do a 'break through session' with him. From that time, I've had an immense amount of respect for Andrew and all the work he does! 
That's why I'm super excited to share with you all, this amazing discussion between Andrew and Sting Ray, a Coach and a Driver, which is a unique dynamic of an interview that you do NOT want to miss! 
Sting Ray Robb is a professional IndyCar Driver and is super young in the profession, but he's already making his name known amongst the other drivers! He began Kart Racing at the age of 5 and hasn't looked back since. And today, we have the opportunity to learn from him about the sport of Racing and the ins and outs of being a professional driver. 
On the other side, we are hearing from Andrew Anderson, who happens to be a life coach for Sting Ray, and they've worked together for a while now, and you'll get to hear from Andrew on the types of things he and Sting Ray work together on from the coaching side. 
Andrew is an author and has a best selling book called: Strength of the Oak, Strength of the Willow: How to Find Courage and Compassion in a Turbulent World
You can pick up your copy of the book by going HERE: https://www.amazon.com/Strength-Oak-Willow-Compassion-Turbulent-ebook/dp/B0BTC9DQJN/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

Since that time, Justin has grown as a professional athlete and is getting ready for his second "full" season with the Idaho Horsemen Football Team.

Today on the show we get to bring on the wide receiver and learn more about what he has learned about the indoor football game and what was his experience like in year two of his professional career? 
Justin went through some adversity, and had to learn the 'business' side of the sport,  but now he's back with the Horsemen and ready to take his experience and knowledge, to lead the Horsemen to a championship here in Idaho. 
Listen and learn from the man about what it's like to play indoor football. What are the best memories he's made. What are some of the difficulties. There's so much that happens behind the scenes, and we get to hear it all today! Stay tuned!
