E58 | A Michigan Man Who Lives What He Coaches with Lawrence 'Jake' Sweeney
In this episode of #JessFor30, Ron sits down with Lawrence 'Jake' Sweeney, a four-year starting center for legendary University of Michigan football coach Bo Schembechler, decorated U.S. Border Patrol agent, performance coach, and author of the book You Are Allowed to Try. With a foreword written by 1997 national champion head coach Lloyd Carr, it is one of the most honest and practical reads on discipline, adversity, and personal excellence you will find. Jake shares stories from his small-town upbringing in Alma, Michigan, his recruitment by Bo Schembechler, and what four years of Michigan football actually taught him about life. He opens up about his decade with the U.S. Border Patrol, his faith journey, his family, and the coaching philosophy that gets him to the gym at 4:30 every morning. Ron and Jake also get into the distraction epidemic, which is hurting young athletes today, and why face-to-face relationships still beat everything else.

E57 | An Irishman on the Bench with Honorable Michael J. Riordan
In this episode of #JessFor30, Ron sits down with the Honorable Michael J. Riordan, Judge on the Michigan Court of Appeals, and proud Bishop Borges and Michigan State University alumnus. The two dive deep into Mike's Irish roots, his parents' journey from County Kerry to Detroit's west side, and trace his unlikely path from immigration officer and SEC enforcement attorney to 14 years on the bench. Along the way, they reminisce about growing up Catholic on the west side of Detroit, the bonds forged at Bishop Borges and St. Agatha, and the lasting lessons of discipline that Catholic school sports instilled in both of them. Ron and Mike also reflect on sobriety, faith, and gratitude, and share a moving conversation about the importance of preserving family stories before it's too late. Mutual friend Frank Murphy joins toward the end to round out a conversation rich with Irish heritage, community pride, and Detroit history. As always, it wouldn't be #JessFor30 without pickle time.
