@jasonmcgowan @kalanifsitake Kalani is the only coach my 3 rabid BYU fan sons can remember (they're 13, 11, and 9) and he is the perfect role model I want them to see in the sport they love.

@RobHasApodcast @robcesternino @AMikeBloomType @ShannonGaitz I believe Jenna Fischer has mentioned her love of Survivor on The Office Ladies podcast
