Notes:
- "Coach Gregg was a legend on the field but so much more. He was TOUGH-DEMANDING-at times intimidating. But he taught us about TEAM-HARD WORK-PERSEVERANCE & SACRIFICE. Blessed to have him in my life."
- "Part of what makes football great is what you learn playing it. Being selfless, learning how to go through adversity as a group, learning about perseverance."
- When first meeting Coach Gregg, "I was like half scared and half man I want to play for this guy."
- The Centerville Elks were about execution, work ethic, pride, and excellence.
- "I thought... Mannnn, how lucky am I to be part of this program."
- The summer workouts:
- "The Monday's and Friday's were bad... The Wednesday with the circuits were DREADFUL. I was scared to death."
- Coach Gregg had established the "decade of dominance" before Kirk was there. "You had an appreciation and you were in awe of him and the program."
- "We thought, 'Am I going to be good enough to be part of this program?'"
- "Those workouts broke me down... And then they built us back up."
- "As a group, we went through torture, but we did it together. It created this unbelievable bond."
- "Bob Gregg taught me so much about humility, sacrifice, hard work, team team team... The team is so much more important than you. All the fundamental principles that you use in life are what you learned from him."
- "The person you are today is because of that."
- "What I learned from him... We beat teams with superior talent with execution and preparation and our work ethic collectively. And our team. It was from all that work we put in June and July."
- "You can get a leg up on your competition in anything you do in life by just outworking them."
- "When you feel like you don't matter, the best thing you can you, how you create confidence, is by outworking everyone in the room. Do little things. Do more. Do more."
- "I thought work ethic was HERE, before I met Bob Gregg, and then they taught me the hard way, that I was capable of working a lot harder."
- "Coach Gregg reminds me a lot of Nick Saban."
- They have incredibly high standards and keep their players humble.
- "You and I are grinders. All of us that played for him are wired the same way. I don't think that's a coincidence. It's because of Coach Gregg."
- "His personality... I wish more people got to know him. He had a personality that to outsiders seemed gruff. Some thought he was a tyrant. But if you really got to know him, he was not that way. He had a soft heart."
- "I think we need more than ever, right now, MORE people like Bob Gregg."
- "He's going to ruffle some feathers, but he's going to do it the right way."

To Catch a Thief: North Korea On Our Payroll
By shows
American companies are being infiltrated—not by hackers breaking in, but by workers. Thousands of North Korean operatives are applying to jobs across the U.S.—and getting them. They are embedding themselves at Fortune 500 companies. Government agencies. Critical infrastructure. Even the firms tasked with stopping this threat. To Catch a Thief: North Korea On Our Payroll is a first-of-its-kind audio documentary exposing this global labor pipeline—one that is quietly funneling hundreds of millions of dollars a year back to the regime, and its nuclear weapons program. Host Nicole Perlroth, bestselling author and former lead cybersecurity and digital espionage reporter for The New York Times, takes listeners inside this hidden network—from a rare, inside look at a North Korean IT worker on the job, to interviews with defectors who escaped it, to knocking on the doors of Americans hosting “laptop farms” on North Korea's behalf. Along the way, the series reveals how this playbook is creating a hiring freeze for American workers, in a challenging job market. And how it has metastasized—adopted by cybercriminal groups and fraud networks around the world—blurring the line between nation-state espionage and organized crime. To Catch a Thief is co-produced by Nicole Perlroth and Rubrik in partnership with Pod People. To Catch a Thief was written and produced by Nicole Perlroth, along with Khrista Rypl, TJ Raphaël, Rebecca Chaisson and Sam Gebauer. Additional thanks to Allie Pinel, Fendall Fulton, Krissy Clark, Cai Lee, Eunice Park and Aimee Machado. Editing and Sound Design by Erica Huang. Art direction and design by Ben Long, Gareth Strange and Sarah Burley at the John & Jane Agency, and support from John Leestma.

Hidden History with Dr. Harini Bhat
By shows
Some questions don't have answers. Yet.Dr. Harini Bhat is a clinical pharmacist and science storyteller obsessed with questions that don't have answers. Every week she unravels real events from history that still can't be fully explained. Mass hysterias. Medical oddities. Vanished civilizations. Strange signals. Unexplained phenomena that keep repeating, centuries apart, as if history is trying to tell us something.Hidden History doesn't dismiss ancient events as myth or superstition. It treats them as incomplete case files, shaped by the limits of knowledge, technology, and record-keeping. Because the unknown isn't a failure of explanation. It's a constant in human experience, one that evolves, repeats, and sometimes deepens the more we learn.Hidden History is a Rewind Original, powered by PAVE Studios.
