Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The JR Kyes Story "He was relentless"
Q: What was your mindset about training and work ethic? Was winning or personal development more important to you?
JR makes it clear that development and becoming the best version of himself mattered more than winning at all costs. He valued training, weight room work, cage sessions, and consistent practice as the path to long-term success, even at the expense of immediate results.
The JR Kyes Story "He was relentless"
Q: Talk to me about the importance of your dad in your baseball journey, how he supported you, how he was there for you, how anything you got that comes off.
JR emphasizes that his father was a constant presence who pushed him with practical routines, taught him discipline, and created opportunities by organizing multiple practices and drills. This foundational support, coupled with the family involvement, shaped his work ethic and willingness to put in extra work, which JR later carried into higher levels of competition.
The Jeremy "Swingman" Nowak Story pt 2 "He was unlocked"
Q: What was your first introduction to professional baseball like, and how did you feel you fit in?
The first year was a struggle as the level was higher with wood bats, and the approach felt off; I had to adjust mentally and physically to the pro environment and the different demands.
The Jonathan Hogart Story (Murray State-Phillies) "Don't be sad it's over, be happy you did it"
Q: How did the injury at Louisiana Tech shape your path?
A shoulder-related nerve issue took months to recover from, leading to a portal move and eventually a fresh start closer to home, which Hogart says helped reset his career and mindset.
The Jonathan Hogart Story (Murray State-Phillies) "Don't be sad it's over, be happy you did it"
Q: What are your earliest memories of baseball?
Hogart recalls playing in the backyard with his dad, taking grounders and fly balls, and the joy of starting with T-ball under his dad's coaching, which planted a lifelong love of the game.
