A couple of years ago, I got hooked on watching NBA playoff games way more than I planned to. It started with one game. Then another. Then suddenly I was staying up late reading player interviews and scrolling through post-game clips on YouTube. One player who kept standing out to me was T.J. McConnell. He…
A few years ago, I noticed something interesting while browsing online. Whenever a famous athlete makes headlines, people often become curious about the people around them—especially spouses and family members.

A while back, I was listening to an episode of Theo Von’s podcast during a long drive. Like a lot of people, I originally tuned in for the comedy.

A while back, I was watching old clips of Mr. T online — mostly out of nostalgia. Like a lot of people, I grew up recognizing the mohawk, the gold chains, and that instantly recognizable voice before I even understood where he became famous. Then something interesting happened.
