    Epic interview with a legend- a guy that has an opinion and a personality. The skier podcast world is rather stale, thanks for a jem!

    Always fun! But at its best when Amy shows up to tell Jonathon how wrong his opinions are 😆

  • Hot Dog v Out Cokd

    Insanity to even compare this two movies, and then say Out Cold is a superior movie in any way. I’d rank ski patrol over out cold. The Takes on Hot Dog were great, and yes the singing should have been cut, I don’t think it’s even him singing…

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Phil Casabon on 'ORNADA,' Armada's New Team Film
Q: How hard or easy was it for you to get Hans into this film?
Hans was down from the get-go and fully committed to the role in the film.
'Girl Climber' w/ Emily Harrington, Amie Engerbretson, & Jonathan Ellsworth
Q: Can you talk about your process and mental preparedness for the climb?
A lot of it was work with a mental health coach, focusing on trusting myself and leaning on support at the right moments.
'Girl Climber' w/ Emily Harrington, Amie Engerbretson, & Jonathan Ellsworth
Q: How does it feel to be that woman?
It feels surreal and impactful, especially bearing my soul during the climb in front of trusted friends.
‘Chasing The Triple Crown’ w/ Hannah Otto
Q: How beautifully said, Hannah. I think that should wrap it up. We can outdo ourselves there. That's just a wonderful finish. Do you have anything else you'd like to say to our audience?
Just, the film is now live on the Competitive Cyclist YouTube channel, so I hope you'll go give it a watch and enjoy seeing a little bit of my process.
‘Chasing The Triple Crown’ w/ Hannah Otto
Q: Did the film crew have any mishaps, Hannah?
It was hard for them, for sure. They were trying to do a lot of filming off of the moto, and it took a lot of trial and error with their equipment for the bumpy terrain.
