Connecting the typical parent or fan with players and coaches to give the story you can't find in a book about the struggles, sacrifices, achievements, and dedication it takes to become the star your son or daughter looks up to someday. Everyones journey is different, but as a parent, sometimes, from the outside looking in, you may never understand what it takes for them to be who and where those people are today.
S4 E07 -The Right Person Has to Believe in You | Omaha WBB Head Coach Jamie Carey
Sometimes one person believing in you at the right time can completely change where your story ends.
Season 4 Episode 7 of Wired Axcess Podcast with DJ K DuB Omaha sits down with Omaha Mavericks Women’s Basketball Head Coach Jamie Carey for a conversation that represents exactly what Wired Axcess is about: the journey behind the results.
Before becoming a head coach, Carey experienced the highs and lows of being an elite athlete. Her basketball journey included adversity surrounding concussions, an unexpected change in direction, reaching a Final Four, representing Team USA, being drafted into the WNBA and learning from some of the best in the game. But this conversation isn’t simply about where basketball took her. It’s about who believed in her when her path changed. It’s about finding the right place, having the right people around you and putting in the work when nothing is guaranteed.
Now in her second year leading Omaha Women’s Basketball, Carey is trying to build something bigger than wins and losses. With a roster featuring a strong Nebraska-prep presence, there’s another opportunity developing right here at home for athletes to continue their careers while representing Omaha.
And for parents of young athletes, this conversation matters too. Your daughter can learn shooting, defense and X’s and O’s from a coach. But the lessons that stay with her long after basketball ends—accountability, perseverance, confidence, responding to adversity and earning opportunities—can matter even more.
RIGHT PLACE. RIGHT PERSON BELIEVING IN YOU. HARD WORK.
Sometimes that’s the difference between wondering what could have been…and discovering where you were supposed to go.

S 4 E 06 - Beyond the Game: Helping Iowa Athletes #BeSeen | The Daily Nonpareil Sports Editor Peter Burtnett
Season 4, Episode 6 of Wired Axcess Podcast goes behind the coverage with a former prep athlete who found a new way to stay connected to the games he loves—as Sports Editor for The Daily Nonpareil in Council Bluffs.
What happens when the athlete eventually realizes the playing days are over?
For our guest, it became the beginning of another journey.
We get into the transition from athlete to sports media, finding purpose after competition, and the drive behind covering and promoting #IAPreps throughout Southwest Iowa—with some trips across the bridge into the Nebraska prep scene as well.
But this conversation is bigger than scores, stats and bylines.
We talk about the responsibility local sports media has to the athletes, coaches, schools and communities it serves. We get into where sports journalism is heading, his personal goals in the industry, and why giving young athletes another opportunity to #BeSeen matters.
And 2026 isn't just another year for The Daily Nonpareil. Their push into dedicated IAPreps Fall Sports Media Days gives athletes and programs another platform to tell their stories before the season even begins.
Wired Axcess has always believed there are opportunities beyond the biggest programs and biggest headlines. Sometimes connecting our audiences with the people actually covering those athletes is another piece of that mission.
Different sides of the camera. Same purpose: help them #BeSeen.

S 4 E 05 - Built Through the Grind | Louisville Head Coach Mike Yarbrough on Leadership, Sacrifice & Changing Lives
Episode 4 of Season of Wired Axcess goes ALL AXCESS with new Louisville Lions Head Football Coach Mike Yarbrough.
Before becoming the leader of Louisville Football, Coach Yars spent years earning every opportunity. From his roots playing small-town football in Illinois to climbing the coaching ranks at Papillion-La Vista South, his journey has been built on hard work, sacrifice, and countless volunteer hours that often go unseen.
Host DJ K DuB Omaha has had a front-row seat to Coach Yars' coaching journey for over 15 years. Their relationship began in local semi-pro football before crossing paths again through youth football while coaching their sons. Watching Coach Yars grow into one of Nebraska's newest head football coaches makes this conversation even more personal.
This episode goes beyond X's and O's.
Building a blue-collar culture
Leadership that earns respect
The sacrifices coaching demands from families
Creating confidence before creating wins
Making a lasting difference in young athletes' lives
Coach Yars shares why football has never just been about winning games—it's about helping young men become better people long after the final whistle.
Louisville has a new leader... and now you'll know the man behind the headset.
