We've grown up surrounded by beauty ideals that promised confidence, but often delivered shame.

In a special episode of a millennial mind, I sat down with Nicola Adams to explore how appearance-based

compliments and body talk shape our self-worth without us realising it. In partnership with the

Dove Self-Esteen project, we unpack the tools to change the conversation for

ourselves and for future generations. Listen now and download the free body confidence journal

at Dove.com forward slash Y2K. Time to go into the lab and discover the anatomy of a fantasy football league winner.

Seven years of data, trends and traits for us to look at, to identify this year's best picks at quarterback, running back, wide receiver, and tight end, and the person to help who wrote the damn article himself on this very topic. It is Ryan Heath of Fantasy Points. Ryan, we are thrilled to once again have you on the show. How you doing, man? I'm doing great. Yeah, thanks so much for having me back on. Been two years since the last time. But yeah, I was really looking forward to do the show again when you reached out, Josh. Probably took about two years of research time to come up with this beast. So yeah, this is, it's special to have somebody dive into the deep, the details this in depth. And that's why that's why you're on here. Yeah, Brian, we were telling you before we hit record that two years ago, you came on here and discussed age cliffs at every single position.

I will say one of the best thumbnails I ever produced with Austin Neckler in the age filter.

Hayden and I cite that article still this very summer a couple times every single month and

definitely during the season.

So your new manifesto, we have to unleash it to the world.

It is linked in the description down below. And as always, you can follow Ryan on X. That is Ryan J underscore Heath.

Okay, there's multiple layers to this. Let's start it out very simple, Ryan. Okay. How would you

define a league winner in Fancy football? Basically, I'm defining a league winner as a player where in over 55% of ESPN leagues,

that player makes a playoff team.

So in like a default setting, a 10 team league, the base percentage, the average would be 40%.

You're getting players that are on about 40% more playoff teams than you would expect.

And I would say one of your biggest findings, and this is almost the lead of your article,

is that, quote, in a typical fantasy football league, somewhere between only 7 to 15 players

actually matter in each season.

Hay and I like to simplify analysis, but on some level, that's really simplifying four

months of fantasy football action.
