Sports are more than just games. Competition is a classroom for the human experience. While scoreboards declare winners and losers, the real value of athletics is the lessons that transcend any field of play. Lessons like perseverance, leadership, and resilience. And coaches are the people responsible for teaching these principles to athletes and fans alike. Have you ever wondered what shaped the philosophy or leadership style of your favorite coaches? A new podcast from KSL – Coach’s Book Club – asks coaches and athletes to share how their favorite books educated, changed or inspired them. Hosts David James and Amy Donaldson are veteran journalists who’ve covered everything from Olympic triumphs to high school heartbreaks. Each month, they’ll introduce you to a coach and get their book club pick. Then, we’ll read the book together and discuss the characters, themes and lessons. And we want to hear your take, too. This isn’t just a podcast to listen to, it’s a community. So join the coach’s book club!

A Century of Cougar Football

Fast forward 100 years, and BYU is set to enter the Big 12 Conference. Thanks to the legendary coaching of LaVell Edwards, the iconic athleticism of Jim McMahon, Robbie Bosco and hundreds more, and the ethics and sportsmanship inspired by LDS culture, BYU football is poised for new levels of greatness. Hear the trials and traditions of BYU football from the icons themselves. A Century of Cougar Football is a KSL Podcast.

Making of a Moment
In sports, there are moments that transcend a single game.
But what if we told you how that on-field moment was created? If you knew the myriad of people who make sacrifices, choices – if you knew the full messy, complicated, gut-wrenching truth- it might change your opinion of those legendary plays.
This podcast explores the reality of these sports moments – what they mean to us, what they teach us about ourselves, and why individual accomplishments become communal moments.
In Making of a Moment Season 1 – The RSL Story – host Amy Donaldson looks at the unlikely 2021 playoff run of Real Salt Lake. That post-season performance from a team expected to finish last is much more than the Cinderella story witnessed by RSL faithful. It’s the story of an underdog club engaged in a fight for survival off the field, while trying to prove they deserved to compete for a championship.
