Also how about inviting some great past skaters for interviews…Michelle Kwan, Na... more

  • Great podcast

    I’m a gymnastics fan that likes to watch skating. I was looking for something similar to GymCastic to inform me of all the things I don’t know about skating. Love this podcast! Love the dynamic between the hosts and it’s informative without being boring. So glad I found this!
