Podcast #175 – Apres – Part 1
26/08/2019 Duration: 01h34minIt's been a long hot summer and often we spend time, by ourselves pondering life, the previous ski season and the upcoming ski season. As much fun as it is to ponder by oneself, sometimes, it's even more fun to have a conversation with a buddy. This week, that's exactly what we do, as we sat down with our pal Rich from All About Apres. We talk about why we do what we do and where we all want to go.

05/08/2019 Duration: 02h09minHaven't we all dreamed of owning our ski resort? We certainly have and now, low-and-behold, Soldier Mountain in beautiful Fairfield, ID, is on the market. Did you know that Bruce Willis was once the owner? Yipee-ka-yeh-mothafucka. Does it get sweet dumps, yes, then why are the current owners selling? Could be gambling debts, could be they'd rather just move Arizona and phone it in...who knows? We're going to discuss what it would take to actually buy these glorious beast and what it would take to turn her into a winner.

Podcast #166 – Overdose
14/06/2019 Duration: 43minIt's been over a year since Mario and Brian were together in the same room recording a podcast together. It was no simple feat.

None of that could stop him and we were able to hang out and record a podcast before Mario started his NYC mini-vacation.

Podcast #165 – Kickstarter
07/06/2019 Duration: 01h46minSome people are born wealthy, some people are born connected and some people are born both. Most of us need to grind our way to the top.

Podcast #164 – Beautiful Brains
01/06/2019 Duration: 01h56minIf you listened to the last two episodes of the podcast, you may be convinced that both Brian and Mario suffer from some sort of brain damage.

Every sport all the time, it's still an issue. We share some information we've found to help you avoid damaging your beautiful brains.
