Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Coaches Show Episode 111: Paddy Gleason
Q: Background on Paddy Gleason and why you're focusing on physical fitness for paintball?
Paddy shares his journey from Maui to pro paintball, his recovery from addiction, and how he found a niche in sports performance training for paintball, including his Off the Leash philosophy and the Omega app to deliver sport-specific training.
The Coaches Show Episode 110: President Tom Cole
Q: Yeah, how were the players chosen for the All-Star game?
Teams submitted four players to be eligible; fans voted to select from those nominees, with the aim of highlighting marketable players while avoiding unintended snubs, and some slots were reallocated to ensure rest and scheduling feasibility.
The Coaches Show Episode 106: Pre WNXL Tampa with Jenn Fulk and Anthony Vitale
Q: How will the new playoff structure with six teams impact strategy going into Tampa?
Teams expect higher stakes for early rounds, more emphasis on securing byes, and broader opportunities to advance, while coaches stress the importance of adapting to layout shifts and using early matches to test pace and tempo.
The Coaches Show Episode 106: Pre WNXL Tampa with Jenn Fulk and Anthony Vitale
Q: What are the big roster changes looked at for the heroines and other top teams?
The guests highlight strategic pickups across heroines, Femmes Fatale, Vibe, High Rollers, Voltage, Sirens, Royals and Angels, with emphasis on balancing roles, experience, and roster depth for 3v3 play and the Tampa event.
The Coaches Show Episode 98: LA Collision with Mike Hinman
Q: How will you manage your schedule to make sure you're not getting enough prep time with your rookie team?
Once the season begins, there's no game planning as I just sit and watch. There are multiple coaches for our divisional teams, and I focus on what's necessary for the professional team.
