Sun, 01 Mar 2026 07:10:13 -0800

Had to sit down with @madmanleek inside @woodswrxmedia
We talked sports — baseball, some hoops — and really tapped into the GRIND. The hours he put in to become a leader and a real factor on that baseball field … and how that same discipline helped him transition into the battle rap scene.
He also spoke on being big on the Hyphy movement and how he incorporates some of those dance vibes into his raps — that energy different!!
He’s really putting on for Sacramento and doing it the right way. I had the chance to attend one of his events and it was A1 — no !! Major love to everybody who showed up and participated!
Big shoutout to @iamaward and @everythingloso — y’all gotta pull back up to the City so we can sit down and tap in!!
Don’t miss this drop!!

Interview with Sacramento's Own Dr. Ray Harris

Mon, 23 Feb 2026 16:12:09 -0800

Today’s conversation bridges academics, athletics, and personal growth. Our guest recently completed their doctorate and brings a powerful story rooted right here at Los Rios, where they once competed as a student-athlete in the early 2000s before transferring to Western Illinois to finish their undergraduate degree.

As an athlete, they learned how to compete, endure, and push physical limits—but it wasn’t until a professor challenged them that they discovered how to push themselves intellectually. That moment now defines their teaching philosophy: helping students understand that academic excellence requires the same discipline, intentional practice, and mindset as athletics—not for grades, but for true mastery.

We’ll also touch on the athlete experience today, including the journey of Ray Harris Jr., a sophomore guard formerly with University of the Pacific, whose path through college basketball was shaped by performance, redshirting, health challenges, and resilience.

This is a conversation about growth, identity, and what it really means to level up—on and off the court. Let’s get into it.

Interview with Coach Larry of DUBb Fitness

Mon, 23 Jun 2025 04:32:00 -0700

Coach Larry, DUBb FITNESS Meet Coach Larry — a husband, proud father of three, and the heart behind DUBb FITNESS in Stockton, California, where he was born and raised. A lifelong athlete and former competitive bodybuilder, Larry once ranked 4th in the nation as an amateur in his weight class. But his passion for fitness didn’t come from trophies — it came from transformation. After a life-altering DUI in the mid-2000s, Larry hit rock bottom. Depressed, ashamed, and searching for purpose, he made the decision to turn his life around. He walked away from partying, gave his life to God, and in 2007, found healing and clarity through exercise. Since then, fitness has been more than a routine — it’s been his mission. Today, Larry helps busy adults over 35 reclaim their health and vitality in just 30 days, with training just three times a week — no extreme diets or hours in the gym required. His coaching focuses on building strength from the inside out, empowering others to live fully and intentionally. Coach Larry is living proof that real change is possible — and now, he’s helping others do the same.

Interview with University of Washington Commit Nina Cain

Mon, 13 Jan 2025 00:04:41 -0800

Nina Cain can do a little bit of everything with a basketball, and it is her versatility and drive that has made the McClatchy High School Senior forward a national recruit. It’s also a paramount reason why she is The Bee’s Girls Basketball Player of the Year for the 2023-24 season, an honor that goes to a student-athlete who best exemplifies effort, sportsmanship and results. The 6-foot-1 Cain, who plays guard, forward and center, averaged 23.4 points and 9.6 rebounds to help the Metro League champions stage a spirited run in the playoffs to finish the season 26-6. Cain missed three of her team’s losses due to concussion protocol, and McClatchy coaches had to hide her jersey and lock the gym doors so she wouldn’t try to sneak in some action. And her best numbers? Her 4.5 grade-point average.

Stephens rarely ventures beyond the three-point arc, but gets plenty of points inside.

For 26 years, I called basketball games inside of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. No one had heard me outside of a prison yard until the Golden State Warriors came inside of San Quentin State Prison and then Coach Jackson said “I know some guys at ESPN that would be worried about their job if they heard you.”No one knew who I was until Marcus Thompson of Theathletic.com wrote about me on his visit to the prison in 2017.And no one saw me until the movie “Q Ball” was shown during the shutdown due to coronavirus. Now, I'm home, and after working in the Venice Basketball and several other leagues in and around Southern California, its time for me to not only provide play by play for sports, but to also introduce the athletes that play sports to an audience eager to learn about how others triumph over tragedy.My story isn’t the only one that’s unique. Sit for a little bit and listen to others who’ve also overcome great odds to succeed.
