Intro:

This week we welcome Didier Chambaron to the pod.

 

Didier is the current head of coach education for US soccer. Prior to this, he served in the same position at Oceania Football Confederation, as well as a FIFA coach education instructor.

 

Before prioritising his energy towards helping grow the next generation of coaches, Didier was in the hot seat himself, leading the New Caledonian men’s football team through World Cup Qualifications and taking the team to the OFC Nations Cup final in 2008.

 

A very knowledge man, who has both been there, don’t that and is now supporting those that are striving to experience the same highs (and lows) for themselves.

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
