This week on the Juniata Men’s Basketball Podcast, Tom Frank, Biz, and Coach Curley sit down with one of the program’s most decorated alumni — 2018 grad, four-year starter, and the only Landmark Conference Defensive Player of the Year in school history, Seth Brewer.

From helping the Eagles earn their first-ever national ranking and a regular-season title, to setting the school record for wins in a season, Seth shares the stories, lessons, and behind-the-scenes moments that made his class “The Standard.” The guys talk about leadership, accountability, and why buying in 100% is the only way to turn a season around. Plus, hear Seth’s take on the toughest opponents he faced, his “Mount Juniata” starting five, and what life looks like now as “Uncle Seth” and a high school business teacher.

School’s out, but Tom, Biz, and Coach Curley refuse to coast into summer. Instead, they welcome 6-foot-7 bruiser-turned-firefighter Andrew “Bith” Bithell (’21) for a conversation that crackles hotter than a three-alarm blaze. Bith rewinds the tape on his roller-coaster college career—three shoulder surgeries, two concussions, and a nine-game senior season shortened by COVID—then fast-forwards to life in full turnout gear with the Altoona Fire Department, where he moonlights as a record-setting strongman (yes, he once cuddled a 415-lb atlas stone).

Along the way, the crew trades stories about rehab-forged grit, weight-room epiphanies, and that Winston Churchill mantra Bith keeps taped to his locker: “Stay ready—your finest hour might start in 60 seconds.” A lightning round reveals his Dr Pepper–powered post-lift diet, the most underrated Eagle of his era, and whether he’d rather squat 800 lbs or drain a Landmark title buzzer-beater (spoiler: team first, always). Equal parts locker-room banter and life-advice clinic, this episode is a master class in turning setbacks into strength—on the court, in the gym, and under the flashing lights of a fire engine.

The comeback starts now. After a well-earned break, Tom Frank, Biz, and Head Coach Greg Curley are back behind the mic to officially tip off Season 4 of the Juniata Men's Basketball Show. In this jam-packed episode, the crew recaps spring training, breaks down the incoming recruiting class (hello, 6'8"), and issues a very real bench press challenge to the entire team. Coach Curley shares offseason insights—from Chick-fil-A-fueled wiffle ball battles to the surprising benefits of a scoreboard-free spring—and sets the tone for a pivotal summer of growth. Plus, there’s boat drama, basketball trivia, and a healthy dose of shade for Spooky Nook parking.

Subscribe, follow, and buckle up—the journey to the ultimate comeback season has begun.
