0:00.0 | Hey everybody, welcome back to Gear 30 on the Blister Podcast Network. |
0:10.2 | I'm Jonathan Ellsworth, and you can check out everything we're doing and reviewing over |
0:16.3 | at BlisterReview.com. |
0:19.7 | Today, we've got another episode of Gear gear therapy for you, and this time around, we're |
0:25.4 | really focused on ski quiver questions, namely what to keep and what to sell. |
0:32.8 | And we've also got a great guest for you today. |
