05 - CALEB SHOMO / Beartooth: Performing well under pressure when thousands are watching
06/06/20 • 56 min
FOREVERLEARNING is one of my core values and one of the things I love pursuing is wisdom and insight from experts in a wide variety of industries and careers that can be translated into my work with athletes.
Consistent with that pursuit I’m doing some interviews around the topic of handling pressure I call THE VOICE OF THE PRESSURE PERFORMER.
Today we’ll dip into the world of music with my second guest for this new series, lead singer and creator of all of the Beartooth music and my youngest son, CALEB SHOMO.
Caleb began his music career by joining a small local band in Columbus, Ohio, at the age of 14 before being asked to become part of the biggest local band in central Ohio at the time, Attack Attack. While still 15, Caleb and Attack Attack were signed to a bigtime record label and began touring full-time. Caleb was literally on the road 45 out of his first 52 weeks after starting the full-time touring life. His run with Attack Attack lasted 5 years and included several successful albums and big performances all over the world.
In 2013, Caleb launched a new band named Beartooth, and since that time Beartooth has achieved amazing success with massive crowds and a deeply devoted fanbase. Caleb writes all the songs, sings all the vocals, and plays all the instruments on all the album recordings. During live performances, Caleb is Beartooth's frontman and lead vocalists while turning the instrumental performance parts over to a group of very talented musicians.
Beartooth has performed all over the world to sold-out venues including giant festival performances in front of crowds as large as 30,000-40,000 in both Europe and the United States. Caleb has learned a lot over the years about performing in pressure situations and navigating the challenges that come with the spotlight in front of giant crowds, and his insights can be valuable to athletes who are hungry to improve their own pressure performances as well.
It is a huge honor to have Caleb as my guest on this series called THE VOICE OF THE PRESSURE PERFORMER.

04 - TOBY ROWLAND: Confidence grows at the intersection of preparation and experience
FOREVERLEARNING is one of my core values and one of the things I love pursuing is wisdom and insight from experts in a wide variety of industries and careers that can be translated into my work with athletes.
Consistent with that pursuit I’m going to do some interviews around the topic of handling pressure I’m calling THE VOICE OF THE PRESSURE PERFORMER.
Today we’ll dip into the world of Sports Broadcasting with my first guest for this new series, the Voice of the Oklahoma Sooners, TOBY ROWLAND.
Toby grew up a die-hard Sooners fan having spent his early childhood in Oklahoma before moving to Indiana for his high school years where he fell in love with the Cincinnati Reds, the Indianapolis Colts, and the Indiana Pacers. After graduating High School Toby returned to Oklahoma for college where he played basketball before launching Southern Nazarene University’s first-ever Sports Information Department. After college, Toby had a very successful career in both radio and television sports before getting the opportunity in 2009 to become the sideline reporter for the Oklahoma Sooners football broadcasts.
In 2011, Toby was introduced as the Voice of the Oklahoma Sooners replacing the broadcasting legend, Bob Berry who’d served in that role for 50 years. Over the last 9 years, Toby has cemented himself as a gifted broadcaster for Sooner-nation, coining familiar phrases and making his voice synonymous with the success of Sooner athletics including the nationally decorated Oklahoma Sooners football program.
It is a huge honor to have Toby as my guest on this brand new series called THE VOICE OF THE PRESSURE PERFORMER.

06 - BRAD SMITH / Ohio State Golf: Elite players find a deeper foundation than the results of their performance
FOREVERLEARNING is one of my core values and one of the greatest resources for learning in the world of athletes is the VOICE OF THE MAJOR COLLEGE COACH. D1 coaches navigate an amazing amount of complex challenges and they are powerful resources for learning how to truly impact athletes in positive ways. I am honored to spotlight their experience and wisdom in these interviews.
Today's guest for my coach-chat is the Assistant Golf Coach at THE Ohio State University, BRAD SMITH.
Brad was a highly accomplished golfer at Ohio State from 2007-2011. He had a decorated college career which he capped off by finishing 17th in the individual standings and 5th in the team standings at the 2011 NCAA National Championship during his senior year. Brad graduated Summa Cum Laude (3.95 GPA) with a business administration degree majoring in finance. In 2015 Brad was brought back to OSU as an assistant to head golf coach Jay Moseley. Not surprisingly, Brad's academic prowess has rubbed off on his golfers with the Buckeyes racking up multiple Scholar-Athlete and Academic All-Big Ten recognition in the last few years.
Brad grew up in Peru, Indiana, the son of PGA Club pro, Todd Smith, and nephew of former Ohio State All-American and long-term PGA Tour player, Chris Smith. Brad and his wife, Carmen, have been married since August 2010 and have two daughters and a son.
Brad's insights from both playing and coaching, combined with his ready smile and a quick wit, make him a joy to dialogue with. It is a huge honor to have him as my guest on this series of the VOICE OF THE MAJOR COLLEGE COACH.
