  • Shak Talk – Episode Title: “More Than a Game”
    Jul 11 2025

    Today on Shak Talk, we’re diving into a game-changing conversation that goes far beyond the scoreboard. We’re unpacking the current state of men’s mental health, especially in sports, and how today’s athletes are navigating pressure, expectations, and identity.

    We’ll also break down the rise of NIL (Name, Image, and Likeness) deals—how they’re changing the game for college and even high school athletes. Are these deals empowering young athletes, or piling on more pressure? Should players be paid beyond NIL, and what does that mean for the future of amateur sports?

    From locker room truths to life beyond the field, this episode gets real about the intersection of money, mental health, and the modern athlete.
