Welcome to With Priscilla, where we dive into authentic stories that inspire and connect us. Today, I’m thrilled to sit down with Anthony Robles, the NCAA wrestling champion whose journey from Mesa, Arizona, to the top of the sport shines in the 2024 film Unstoppable, now streaming on Amazon Prime. The biopic, produced by Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, stars Jharrel Jerome as Anthony and Jennifer Lopez as his mother, Judy, tracing his path through bullying and family struggles to an undefeated 2011 NCAA title at Arizona State. Anthony even performed his own wrestling stunts, bringing raw authenticity to the screen.

 Welcome to the With Priscilla podcast! 
Today, I’m beyond excited to bring you Alanna Rizzo, a seven-time Emmy-winning sports journalist with over two decades in baseball. You’ve seen her shining on Foul Territory, Dodgers Territory, Blue Jays Central, and TBS, plus delivering bold takes on MLB Network’s High Heat. From covering the Dodgers’ World Series runs on SportsNet LA to her early days with the Colorado Rockies, Alanna’s passion and insight have redefined sports storytelling. And off the field, she’s changing lives through Guidry’s Guardian Foundation, inspired by her beloved Border Collie mix, Guidry, adopted in 2009 from the Humane Society of Boulder Valley.
