In this episode of Number Your Stories, Logan Phillips dives deep into the world of youth football, but this isn’t your typical playbook. As head coach, Logan shares the real mission behind coaching young athletes—not just to win games, but to develop men of character who will lead with integrity long after the final whistle blows.
Why do we push these kids to the limit, knowing most won’t play in college, let alone the NFL? What does it take to build a culture of discipline and respect, while keeping the competitive edge? And how do we, as coaches, handle losses ourselves—because it’s not just the players who struggle with defeat.
Join Logan as he breaks down the unique role of coaching in shaping the next generation of leaders, offering practical insights, personal stories, and a fresh perspective on how football is about so much more than the scoreboard. Whether you’re a coach, a parent, or someone looking to inspire others, this episode will challenge how you think about sports—and life.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
