   #23 - Captain of the '96 Gators | James Bates on Championships, Spurrier & Life After the Gators

   Four straight SEC Championships. A National Championship. Team captain. And then an entirely different chapter as an artist. James Bates joins PodNumbra to tell the story of his remarkable journey—from playing linebacker for Steve Spurrier and the Florida Gators to captaining the legendary 1996 National Championship team, and eventually reinventing himself as B8TESY. James takes us inside one of the greatest eras in Florida football history and shares what really went into building a championship team: hard work, brotherhood, preparation—and, yes, a little luck. We talk about Coach Steve Spurrier, the personalities and culture behind those dominant Gator teams, winning four consecutive SEC Championships (1993–1996), and what it meant to finally bring Florida its first consensus football National Championship. But James Bates’ story didn’t end when the pads came off. We also explore his career in broadcasting, his creativity, and the unexpected path that led him to become B8TESY, turning his passion for art into another successful chapter of his life. Football. Championships. Brotherhood. Art. Reinvention. This is the story of James Bates. (And despite a few sections sounding like we were recording from inside of a submarine, the interview is fun, engaging and full of fun Gator stories) PodNumbra — Real People. Real Conversations. Real Stories. Because the path to success is rarely a straight line. Subscribe, follow and share the episode with a Gator who remembers the glory days of the ’90s.

   #22 - Off the Top Rope: Conrad Thompson, Accidental Podcaster, Ric Flair, and The Mortgage Guy

   While Conrad Thompson may be known as “Conrad the Mortgage Guy,” he also know a thing or three about podcasting, business, advertising, and professional wrestling. What started with a love of professional wrestling eventually led Conrad to meet Ric Flair, become friends with the Nature Boy, and start podcasting with one of the most iconic figures in wrestling history. From there, as they say, the rest is history. On this episode of PodNumbra, Conrad takes us through that journey—from his passion for wrestling, to meeting Ric Flair, to getting into podcasting and ultimately building one of the most recognizable podcasting brands in the wrestling world. We talk about Something to Wrestle, 83 Weeks, and What Happened When, where Conrad teams up with the legendary Tony Schiavone. What Happened When is a weekly show hosted by Tony and Conrad that takes listeners back through some of the most memorable eras and stories in professional wrestling. And, of course, we talked about the GOAT himself, Hulk Hogan. Conrad shares the stories, lessons and experiences that helped shape his career and offers a firsthand look at what happens when you combine passion, relationships, opportunity and a willingness to take a chance. Because sometimes the path to success starts with simply loving what you do. Real people. Real conversations. Real success. Zero robot butlers.

   #21 - May It Please the Court: Samuel Salario's Fascinating Legal Journey

   In this episode of PodNumbra, we sit down with Samuel Salario for a conversation about his remarkable legal career and the experiences that have shaped the way he practices law today. Samuel shares his perspective on clerking for a federal judge and later serving as an appellate judge on Florida’s Second District Court of Appeal, after being appointed by then-Governor—and now U.S. Senator—Rick Scott. Those experiences gave Samuel a unique view of the law from the other side of the bench. He discusses how seeing cases from the judicial perspective has influenced the way he evaluates arguments, understands the judicial process, and ultimately better represents his clients today. It’s a conversation about the law, leadership, persistence, and the experiences that shape us professionally—and how every chapter of a career can provide lessons that make us better at what we do. Because success rarely follows a straight line. That’s what PodNumbra is all about. Real people. Real conversations. Real success.
