  • Former Cheerleader Turned Dad now a Big Fan!

    Jason has one of THE BEST laughs on the planet! I can’t count how many times I’ve just laughed when he started to laugh. That said, the knowledge J passes along is not only insightful, it’s entertaining. With a daughter coming to the cheer age, I wish she had a coach like Jason Larkins available to lead her. Solid lessons on life, leadership, and a love for the sport. I haven’t cheered in 20 years but this podcast makes me want to lace up my Asics again!

    This guy is a bit rude and is more gym focused than family and child focused.
