Hey everybody, welcome back to the Blister Podcast on the Blister Podcast Network.

I'm Jonathan Ellsworth, and you can check out everything.

We're doing and reviewing over at blisterreview.com.

Well, since we just entered the official start of summer here in the Northern Hemisphere,

and I know winter is feeling really far away for a lot of us,

we thought we'd offer here a bit of reprieve for those of us who could use it.

So today, we are airing a really good conversation that we had at our last Blister Summit with

some legends of modern skiing and riding. I'm talking about Marcus Castan, Nick Russell,

Chris Davenport, and our patron saint of gear 30, Hoji. You'll hear them offer some life updates,

some life advice, some trip reports from some

very cold and snowy places, and more.

Now, before we get going, I want to give a shout out to a few of our recent Blister

Plus members, and that includes Ryan and Linda from Bellingham, Washington, which is awesome,

because I think now officially everyone in Bellingham is a Blister Plus member.

So great job, Bellingham.

We've also got Timothy from Somerset, Wisconsin, Zach from Ukiah, California, Cole from Springville, California, Brent from Annandale, Virginia, Sophia from Boone, North Carolina,

and finally for today, Ingrid from Bingham, Washington, just renewed her membership.

So if you like to play outside at home, or if you have a trip coming up anywhere in the world,

then check out our link to Blister Plus in the show notes,

and you'll see why people are signing up for Blister Plus every single day.

And now let's get to my conversation with Hoji, Nick, Dav, and Marcus.

Here we go.
