In this premiere episode of "The God Hook," host Carol Costello introduces the chilling story of Richard Beasley, infamously known as the Ohio Craigslist Killer. In previously unreleased jailhouse recordings, Beasley portrays himself as a devout Christian, concealing his manipulative and predatory behavior. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Beasley's deceitfulness extends beyond the victims he buried in shallow graves.

We also discuss Manchester City’s violations of FIFA’s Financial Fair Play rules, the capability of sports regulatory bodies to hold them accountable, whether they are truly independent, and touching on the future of football club ownership and whether viable alternatives exist. Moreover, we ask Rob how he navigates his own political and moral beliefs while reporting on controversial matters and how he asks the hard questions while maintaining journalistic integrity and respect within the community. Rob Harris is a British sports journalist and Global Sports Correspondant for the Associated Press. Rob’s reporting focuses on the intersection of politics and sports.

From Vancouver with Brian White (@_BrianWhite42) to Glasgow with Markus (@markusfjortoft) and Ciaran (CiaranMcKenna8), this episode follows up on the previous two episodes about pro academies, college, and taking a different approach towards a professional career. Brian candidly reflects on his path from a New Jersey hopeful, through the college experience at Duke University, all the way to the pros with New York Red Bulls and Vancouver Whitecaps. We discuss why it's gone so well at the Whitecaps and how he's dealt with the inevitable setbacks: not being signed to a pro contract after being the 14th pick in the draft, being traded by the Red Bulls, and not being called up to the USMNT. Further, we discuss the key to a good partnership, being a selfless striker, and the mental application to taking the next step. Lastly, we reflect on the rewards of the college system for his development and what he wants to do after his pro football career is over. Brian White is a striker for the Vancouver Whitecaps in the MLS and a Duke Alumnus. He spent the beginning of his career with the Red Bulls. He had 15 goals in 47 MLS appearances with the club after signing an MLS deal in 2018, having excelled for RBNY's second team in the USL Championship. White was selected in the first round of the 2018 MLS SuperDraft after attending Duke University. Brian was traded to the Vancouver Whitecaps in June 2021 and became a revelation last season. The centre-forward had 12 goals and five assists in 27 appearances for the Canadian club, helping orchestrate a second-half surge under then-interim head coach Vanni Sartini, leading the club to the MLS Cup Playoffs. He agreed to a contract extension through 2025 with a club option for 2026 ahead of this season. Follow BroPod on Twitter @BroPod1 and Facebook.

Episode Description In this talk with @markusfjortoft and @CiaranMcKenna8, he reflects on recruiting character instead of players, taking an educational approach to developing players, cultivating a “winning” culture across decades of coaching, where college fits in the larger American development system and the “software” it provides, and how MLS can do better in recognizing this. At Ivy League school Brown University, Mike enjoyed consistent success, reaching 8 NCAA appearances, and winning 8 Ivy League Championships. Following his 15 years at Brown, he became head coach at Clemson and has since won 4 ACC Regular Season Championships and 2 Tournament Championships. Follow BroPod on Twitter @BroPod1 and Facebook.

He later went on to end his playing career in Norway at Lillestrøm before starting his managerial career at the same club. Since then, he has managed several clubs over the past 17 years, including; Viking, Molde, Brentford, Wigan, Leeds, Fleetwood, Malmö, and most recently Fortuna Dusseldorf. Uwe shares with Markus and Ciaran his experiences growing up and living in East Germany, which consisted of a regimented yet innovative school of excellence program, threats from Stasi, the secret police force, and being in the middle of the uprisings that led to the fall of the Berlin Wall - all of which had a profound effect on his playing and managerial career. Further, we go on to discuss his cult hero status at Manchester City and his desire to have retired there, and the cancer that forced him to retire in Norway while at Lillestrøm. Thanks for sharing Uwe. The latter part of the episode grapples with his managerial career, as we discuss him putting his stamp on a team in an increasingly shorter time-frame for managers, and how he compares himself to when he first started in 2004 both tactically and "politically".

Then 4 years ago, Liberty Media, an American mass media company purchased a controlling interest in the Formula 1 group for around $4.5b. Ecclestone´s exit marked a significant shift, as Liberty Media, who see F1 more as an entertainment company rather than a sports organization, accelerated its bid to reach new audiences through the likes social media, a dedicated eSports platform, and an on-demand video service. As opposed to previously limited access to the sport, Liberty Media has sought to open it more up to the public, with moves such as the Netflix Drive to Survive series having an incredible impact on the overall engagement with the sports.

Jason Kreis was part of the first MLS season and recorded 300 appearances over 12 years in the league. After his playing career he transitioned into coaching, taking charge of Real Salt Lake, New York City FC and Orlando City SC between 2007 and 2018. At RSL his philosophy turned a struggling franchise into one of the MLS powerhouses, led by the mantra of “the team is the star.” He became the youngest head-coach in MLS history to win the MLS Cup in 2009, and he led them to playoff appearances in all subsequent seasons through 2013. By then he had recorded a CONCACAF Champions League final appearance as the first MLS team to do so, and a lost MLS Cup final on penalties in 2013. In January 2019 he took the position of Senior Academy Director of Inter Miami and in March 2019 he was named U.S. Men’s National U-23 Head Coach. Follow BroPod on Twitter @BroPod1 and Facebook.

It's been a minute, but it's only because we want to give you guys and girls the very best. That's why we're delighted to present to you our latest guest: Ali Curtis. Similar to us, Ali spent the formative years of his life at Duke University from 1997 to 2000. To say his time with Duke soccer was a success would be an understatement. He is the all-time leading goal scorer in Duke history with 53 goals, as well as 28 assists. This resulted in him winning the Herman Trophy his junior year, as well as the MAC Award his senior year (both awards recognise college soccer’s best player). Following Duke he went on to make 65 appearances in the MLS over a span of 3 years with Tampa Bay Mutiny, D.C. United, and Dallas Burn. He left soccer briefly for JP Morgan investment bank, where he worked for 3 years, before returning to the MLS where he operated as the league’s Senior Director of Player Relations and Competition. In 2014, he was appointed as the Sporting Director at the New York Red Bulls. More recently, in 2019, he was named the General manager of Toronto FC.…
