20 Oct LaVar Ball & Marianne Williamson
Show Summary
At the top of the show, Adam talks to Bryan and Gina about today’s guest, Lavar Ball, going to Canoga Park High School. Adam also celebrates the beginning of Cold Pool Plunge season, and later, the gang talks with Lavar about playing youth sports in the Valley back in the late 70s, and his thoughts on working hard early so you don’t have to struggle and work extra hard later. Other topics of conversation include the future of LeBron and the Lakers, Lavar’s thoughts on endorsement deals, and Lavar’s time as a personal trainer and mentor. Before the break, Lavar talks about his experience and views on fatherhood.
Adam and the gang welcome Marianne Williamson the podcast next. Adam points out that Gina is a massive fan, and Adam asks Marianne for the story of her upbringing, as well as her hopes growing up, and experiences speaking at the Saban Theater. Gina then asks Marianne to talk about miracles, and Marianne goes on to talk about how much times have changed since they were growing up. They also talk about important characteristics for leaders, how technology has warped our society, and thoughts on the Presidential debates. Later, Gina reads news stories about the Anchorage Mayor who’s resigned in scandal, the search for the victims of the Tulsa Race Massacre, and a rapper arrested after rapping about defrauding the government. As the show wraps up, the guys talk about the end of ‘Tab’ and ‘Odwalla’, and The Flaming Lips playing shows to bubble-encased audiences.
