As we chat with various guests about human performance (and health), one item that comes up on a regular basis that is part of everyday life, is alcohol (in its many forms).  Today in the podcast we have one of the most renowned experts on all things alcohol-related, Dr. Adam Barry.  Dr. Barry has spent his career working to understand alcohol's impact on learning, performance, and health.  This is a great conversation with a great scholar.

This week's news that the Arizona Cardinals had hired a female for a coaching intern position triggered quite a bit of discussion regarding females in football.  So, we've got a "Best Of.." podcast with Lydia Dubuisson from the Texas A&M HLKN department who has both played and coached football.  This is a great podcast with a different perspective than what you may have heard in the news and certainly a perspective that is germane this week!

Football season is almost here!  As we all count down toward the football season, our "Best of..." podcast series is just going back to the spring, when we interviewed former Aggie Football Player Ben Compton.  This is a fun podcast with a great individual - that will give you some insight into what football players are starting to go through at this time of year.  Enjoy! 

Today we're bringing you a recast of a great podcast we did with an intriguing guest - Mr. Charlie Kimball who drives an Indy Car for a living (he placed 3rd in this year's Indy 500 in fact!).  Uniquely, Charlie is the only driver at an elite level who is also a Type 1 Diabetic.  Charlie's story is inspirational and an example of how high performance athletes often have to overcome many hurdles to participate.

There are people that have the urge to run for long, long distances...We have the pleasure of talking to Ultra Runner Extraordinaire Dr. Mike Sandlin in the podcast this week.  Join us to find about what it takes to run extremely long distances (more than 26 miles!).  This is a great conversation filled with laughs....LISTEN NOW!

Technology is making sports medicine more effective every day.  Joining us today in the podcast is Mr. Dan Giuliani the CEO of Volt Athletics.  The purpose of Volt Athletics is provide expert, online consultation for Strength Coaches and Athletes who may not have access to the best coaching and newest ideas in resistance training.  This is an interesting application that will help to bring the best knowledge and coaching to athletes across the country.

Joining us today in the podcast is Dr. Brandon Marcello who is an independent performance consultant who most recently was the Director of Sports Performance at Stanford University.  This is an interesting conversation that shows the changing nature of coaching to include nutrition, supplements, and conditioning.
