  • Awesome interviews!

    Found you because I wanted to listen to Coach John Shepherd while on a flight. Your podcast is a goldmine! I have to listen to the rest of all of the other episodes now. But do you think you can bring back Coach Bob Thurnhoffer and ask him more about how he sets up mat training for take offs?
