Competition is a wonderful thing and that’s what we are talking about this week on the Ski Rex Media Podcast. Joining me for this episode is Brandon Baker, the man who is running the Winter Wild series of uphill races here in Vermont & New Hampshire. We talk all about the history of the events, the logistics, the calendar, how tough they can be, and what it’s like to participate in them. It sounds like a lot of fun, especially if you enjoy a little friendly competition. Also, shout out to Whaleback Mountain. Not only is that the first venue hosting the series, but they also allowed us to do this interview, my first in-person interview, at their fine mountain. Thanks for listening and I hope you enjoyed it.
For more information about the Winter Wild events, including the dates, times, and how to register, please head to http://teamampactive.org/. There you will find all the information you need to get in on these races. Also, don’t forget to use the links you’ll find on the website to follow the series on social media. I’m sure these fine folks will appreciate it.

Good day & Merry Christmas! That’s right, it’s that time of year again. Time for all of us to put up our Christmas Specials! Again this year, mine isn’t the most special, but just like the gifts under the tree, it’s the thought that counts. Also again this year, I won’t take up a lot of your time. I know these last few days leading into the actual holiday can be wicked busy for folks. So, I just want to take a little time to talk about snow sports during the holidays, throw out a few shout-outs for the New Year, wish you all Happy Holidays, and then send you on your way. Thanks for listening, I hope you enjoyed it, and Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays.

I think it's always a draw when a program like this has a professional athlete as a guest. In this case, I do have an athlete, but I think it's even more unique because of his story. This week, the Ski Rex Media Podcast welcomes Benjamin Alexander to the program. Ben is working rather hard to move through the ranks and qualify for the upcoming Olympics. How is that unique? Benji is working to be the first alpine skier to represent the nation of Jamaica. It's a great story. We go into the how & why he's doing this and even get some information about the logistics and the paperwork of such a feat. Thank you all for watching and I hope that you enjoyed it.
For more information about Benji, or if you've just become a fan, please head to his website at https://www.benjiski.com/. While you're there, you can also follow the links to social media so you can keep up with his travels and races. I'm sure he'll appreciate that, as well.

Hello, one and all! Thank you for checking out the Ski Rex Media Podcast. This week, I'm keeping it local. It's true, last week I spoke with Geoff Hatheway. the man that runs Magic Mountain in southern Vermont. So, why not talk to a boss-guy again? This week, the GM of Dartmouth Skiway, here in the Upper Valley of VT/NH, joins to talk all about this mountain that many folks either haven't heard of or think that it's college kids only. Check this one out and then put Dartmouth Skiway on your list of ski hills to visit. You'll dig it. Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoyed it.
For more information about the Dartmouth Skiway, including hours, calendar, pricing, and all other information, please head to their website at https://sites.dartmouth.edu/skiway/. Also, be sure to follow them on social media.

This week I am bringing you a magic act. Okay, that's not 100% accurate. Though there will be some magic in this episode, it's not the kind of thing you would see as part of a magician's stage show. This week, I bring to you a conversation with the co-owner and operator of Magic Mountain, VT, Geoff Hatheway. We get to talk about the history of Magic Mountian, we talk about southern Vermont, the many jobs that come with running an independent ski area, and we talk about independent ski areas in general. It's an interesting episode with a great guy. Be sure to check this one out. Thank you for listening and I hope that you enjoyed it.
For more information about Magic Mountain, including pass & ticket sales, calendar of events, links to social media, and all other information, please be sure to visit Magic's website at https://magicmtn.com/.

I find the world of adaptive sports fascinating. From the folks that participate, to those that teach and develop adaptive sports, to the technologies that make many adaptive sports possible. It's all some really interesting stuff. With that said, I decided I wanted to talk about adaptive sports and I found just the right person. This week, I present an interview with Kim Jackson, Director of Communications at Vermont Adaptive Ski & Sports. We talk about all kinds of things related to adaptive sports, from the why, to the who, to the where, and all kinds of things in between. Check this one out. It's a good time. Thank you for listening and I hope that you enjoyed it.

I have talked about a skiing book in the past. I had Dan Egan on the podcast talking about his book, “30 Years in a White Haze”. That was a lot of fun and this week we talk to an artist and skier that had a hand in that book. This week, I had the pleasure of speaking with Kimberley Kay, who not only did a handful of the illustrations in Egan’s book, but she has written and illustrated a book of her own, “Ski A to Z”. It’s a wonderful book that is written and illustrated for those wading into the ski world. Kim and I talk all about the book, some of my favorite illustrations from the book, we talk about her skiing past, snow sports in the United Kingdom, and a few other things during the episode. I think you’ll get a kick out of this one on a few levels. Thank you for listening and I really do hope that you enjoyed the episode.
For more information about Kim and her book, “Ski A to Z”, head to her website http://www.inspirebykim.com/. Also, be sure to follow Kim on Twitter by using @kimberleyjkay, Instagram by using @inspirebykim, and on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/inspirebykim.

You read that title correctly. This episode is a bit of a sequel. A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of having Out Of Bounds Podcast host, Adam Jaber, on the Ski Rex Media Podcast. This week, I had the pleasure of having Adam Sauerwein, host of The Pursuit Podcast, which is part of the OutOf Collective, as my guest. Adam and I talk about skiing, both uphill and downhill, we talk about his hometown of Buffalo, we talk about photography, and a few other things. A very interesting episode with a very interesting person. I really do hope that you enjoy this one and I thank you for listening.
For more about Adam or to contact him about The Pursuit Podcast, follow Adam at @MrAdamX on Twitter and Instagram, as well as @outofpodcast. If you’d like to see his photo work or book his services, head to Adam’s website at https://www.adamsauerwein.com/.

For those that are fans of Ski Rex Media and the podcast, you know that I am a big fan of indoor skiing and riding. If you didn’t know that, you will know that by the end of this episode. This week, John Emery, the CEO of Alpine-X, the company that’s going to bring a ton more indoor ski facilities to the United States, joins me for an episode. We talk all about indoor skiing and snowboarding, the plans for the coming Fairfax, VA facility, the future of indoor skiing and riding, and a whole bunch more. We even talk a little about the United States’ only current indoor facility, Big SNOW American Dream. John is great and I think you’ll enjoy this one. Thank you for listening and I really do hope that you enjoyed it. Thanks!

It’s wonderful when I put out a post on social media asking for guests and get an answer. That goes double for this interview because it was pretty awesome. This week, I got to speak with Wendy Clinch, Founder of theskidiva.com. We talk all about her website, we talk all about Vermont, we talk all about women in the snow sports world, and we talk about all kinds of other things. In fact, we kept talking after the interview was over. You won’t get to see or hear that part, but thank you for checking out the interview, itself. I do hope that you enjoyed it. Thanks!
For more information about Wendy and TheSkiDiva, head over to her website, https://www.theskidiva.com/. Also, as we talked about during the episode, you can check out Wendy’s ski-themed mystery novels, Double Black and Fade To White, by visiting her other website at https://wendyclinch.com/.

It feels almost kismet that I scheduled the debut of Indy Pass Founder, Doug Fish's episode of the Ski Rex Media Podcast the morning after the debut of Teton Gravity Research's latest film, In Pursuit Of Soul. It's a fine documentary featuring a whole bunch of Indy Pass partner mountains and the stories of the mountains and the people who work or live by these mountains. In this bonus episode, I try to play film critic and tell you just what I thought of the film. Please, check out my little review here and then check out the film itself at the links below. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed it.

Are you a fan of Indy music, Indy films, or anything else that is independent? So am I. That goes double for my favorite multi-mountain season pass, the Indy Pass. In this episode, I am joined by Doug Fish, founder of the Indy Pass. We talk about mountains and resorts that are Indy Pass partners, the why’s and how’s of the creation of the Indy Pass, and we talk about the Indy Pass Championship Belt, a concept created by High Falutin Skibums Podcast hosts Mario & Brian and me during their interview for episode 7. This episode is also a lot of fun and pretty informative. Check it out, thank you for listening, and I hope you enjoyed it.

It was just two episodes ago that I had the hosts of the High Falutin Skibums Podcast, Brian & Mario, on the Ski Rex Media Podcast. Well, this week I have yet another ski-podcast collaboration for you to enjoy. This week I am joined by Adam Jaber, host of the Out of Bounds Podcast. Adam and I start off with a little bike talk, but that moves quickly into skiing, the industry, some gear talk, and a few other things while we’re at it. I know I say this every week, but I’m thinking you’ll enjoy this one. Especially if you’re a fan of both programs. Thank you for listening!
For those of you who don’t follow Adam and the Out of Bounds podcast and other programs, you can find all the information you need at http://outofpodcast.com/. This includes links to episodes from all of the programs, links to social media, the shop, the blog, and everything else. Check it out!

It was a few weeks ago that I had a man by the name of Tom Thrash on the podcast. We talked about all the places he's traveled to as a skier. This week, it's a similar topic, just a different guest. Simon Burgess, travel content creator, and snowboarder has been all over the world and he talks with me about a whole bunch of those travels. We even try to get in some tips for traveling, using trains, skiing/riding five continents, and we even talk a little local stuff, as Simon has ridden at Killington here in Vermont. It's a fun interview and I really do hope you enjoyed it. Thanks for listening!
For all you could ever want to know about Simon and his travels, head to his website at https://simonjackburgess.com/home. You'll find social media links so you can follow his adventures there, as well his written pieces and a link to his Youtube channel. Enjoy!

The time has come, My Friends. Yes, it's time for me to return the kindness I was shown when I twice guested on the High Falutin Skibums Podcast. This week, I have both Brian & Mario, the hosts of the High Falutin Ski Bums Podcast, as guests on the Ski Rex Media Podcast. You know how it goes when these two programs get together. During the episode, we do talk about skiing. However, we end up talking about a ton of other things. So many things that I can't remember it all. Also, there is a surprise near the end that cuts the episode short. I won't ruin it, but you'll get a kick out of it, I think. Thank you, as always, for listening and I really hope you enjoyed it.
For everything related to the High Falutin Skibums Podcast, please head to their website at https://skibumpodcast.com/, which includes all episodes of their program, contact and social media links, and some other info you might need.

Some would say that print media is dead. Today's guest is not one of those people. On this week's podcast, Mike Rogge, owner, and editor at the Mountain Gazette, as well as a while past full of snow and mountain sports journalism, joins me to talk about a bunch of things. These include his magazine, Mountain Gazette, past projects, skiing in the east and west, and even skiing indoors. I really enjoyed this interview and could listen to Mike's stories all day. He even has a Powder Mag story you won't want to miss. Thanks for watching and I hope you enjoyed it.

I'm staying local to the Ski Rex Media HQ for this one, Kids. However, even if you don't live in the area, you might find this one interesting. In this episode, I talk with Jon Hunt, the Exec. Director over at Whaleback Mountain, the closest mountain to me. This mountain has a pretty loyal local following, is very community-driven, and has a vibe that most people dig right away. It's also one of the most travel-accessible mountains that I have seen. I had another good time with this interview, Mr. Hunt did, as well, and I think you all might enjoy this one. Thank you for listening, I hope you did enjoy it, and maybe I'll see you on the slopes of Whaleback mountain this season.

I do love New England. Do you know who has skied more places than me across the region? Well, probably most folks, I won't lie. But, on this episode, I talk to one of those folks. Tom Thrash has skied all over the U.S. and a couple of hills in two other countries, plus visits national parks all the place, and a few other places. He has some stories for us today, for sure. This one is a lot of fun. Thank you for listening and I hope you enjoy it.

This week on the podcast, I’m interviewing another New Englander...but not just any New Englander. In today’s episode, I’m featuring a conversation with Dan Egan. Yes, extreme ski pioneer, Dan Egan. That Dan Egan. In this conversation, we talk all about his most recent book, 30 Years In A White Haze. It’s a great collection of stories, history, and personal and honest moments from the man himself. It’s not just a skiing book. It’s also about history, family, and maybe even could be used as a guide for those that want to live the life that Dan did. It’s really a good read and this interview was one that I really enjoyed. I think you’ll enjoy it, too. Thanks for listening and please join me for the next one. Thank you!

Along with getting our gear ready prior to each season, many snow sports enthusiasts get their bodies ready. For today's episode, we talk to Abe Maynard. Abe is making skier-oriented strength and mobility training accessible with The Ski System. Abe and I talk about the importance of skier-oriented fitness and what The Ski System has to offer for getting the body ready and keeping the body maintained for the season. Thanks for listening and we hope you enjoyed it.

All in all, I'd say it was a pretty decent winter and spring season. Wouldn't you agree? Once those are over, though, we enter summer and skiing & snowboarding can slow way down to a minimum. With that in mind, I think it's time for the Ski Rex Media Podcast to take a break for a little while. Join me for the season two finale as I give thanks for a great season here at Ski Rex Media, throw out some ideas to stay busy in the summer, and give some clues as to what's next for Ski Rex Media and the coming winter. Thank you for listening, I hope you enjoyed it, have a great summer, and we'll see you soon. Thank you!

A stereotype that caught on a long time ago still shows up in snow sports every so often. Well, that and the fact that skiing and snowboarding can be pretty expensive. But is it really just for rich people? Let's explore that on this week's episode. I dive into the question, then I lose my train of thought, and then I get back into it with an answer to the question. It's probably the one long-time fans would expect, though I don't get there in the most direct way. Join me for that journey, won't you? I do hope that you enjoy the episode and thanks for listening.

As I was deciding what I would talk about this week, I came across a story local to Vermont, which is where I am and grew up. Though this may be a local news story, eventually similar laws and regulations will start popping up in other states in the U.S. and other countries. In fact, these regulations have already shown up in more than just the ski industry. For this week, I'm talking about legislation that will ban the use of PFAS in ski wax, which is pretty common in many of our ski waxes. I'll also throw in my two cents on how this might start to affect the industry, both locally and abroad, as well as if I agree with it or not. After all, Tim from Ski Rex Media is a friend to the environment. I do hope you enjoyed this episode and thank you for listening.

Join us to hear where we go, where we went, and to just have a good time. Thanks for listening.
P.S. - I know the audio isn't the best, but I'm still working out a few things for having guests. Still, I hope you enjoyed it!
