About this episode

Jared Weiss honors Chris Johnson while discussing the most exciting running backs, motivational concepts, and recent sports events.

This week on the Rabbit Hole Roundup I'm honoring Chris Johnson CJ2K following the heartbreaking news of his ALS diagnosis by counting down the five most electric running backs I've ever watched. This isn't about the greatest running backs of all time—it's about the players who made were must see tv. After that I dive into one of my favorite motivational concepts: the Roger Bannister Effect. As someone chasing dunking goals and a high vertical myself, it's incredible watching dunkers continue pushing what's believed to be humanly possible. I react to a powerful clip from Quaison about why you can't save everyone. Sometimes people have to experience pain before they're willing to change, and as difficult as that can be, growth ultimately has to come from within. Then we discuss an old Prince interview about birthdays and use it as a springboard to talk about why life shouldn't feel like a countdown—and why age doesn't have to define your limits! Plus: World Cup Recap and the US tough loss yesterday, Portugal getting eliminated, BIG3 Basketball, MLB News & All-Star Discussion and snubs, Latest LeBron Rumors and more… Tune in now… ____ ____ Link to Buy…
