  • One of the best ski and outdoor podcasts

    As good as ski and outdoor interview-style podcasts get! Mike Powell does his research and isn’t afraid to ask deeper questions. I’m entertained and learn something new about every guest he speaks to. Mike, take a break when the time is right for you, and keep up the great work until then

  • Class Act.

    Also- would like to plug/shoutout Mike’s “other” job with Die Cut Stickers; he absolutely nailed an order I placed recently. Super prompt, helpful, stoked, and on top of it. A class act.
