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.

Today, we are launching a new Blister podcast special series called Off the Clock,

where we are going to be talking with some very successful people

about what they are into when they are not doing the thing that they are best known for.

And very fittingly, given that the New England Patriots are in the Super Bowl this

Sunday, well, we are kicking off this series with former New England Patriots quarterback, Drew

Bledsoe. But what you might not know about this former number one overall NFL draft pick and this four-time NFL pro bowler

who spent 14 seasons in the NFL, his first love wasn't football, it was skiing.

This episode is presented by Snowbird, which is simply one of the best places to ski and ride in the world

with over 3,000 vertical feet and 2,500 acres of some of the best and most varied terrain

anywhere.

Snowbird also offers heli skiing, snow cat skiing, backcountry courses, and resort guides and lessons.

It is just 29 miles from Salt Lake City International Airport and from April 13th through the 17th,

Snowbird will be the host of Blister Summit, 2026.

So we will include links to Snowbird and the Blister Summit.

Do check those out, and then come hang out with us at Snowbird this April.

And finally here, I just want to welcome all of our new Blister Plus members who are now enjoying

our expanded Blister Plus global coverage of 50 outdoor sports.

So if you are skiing or riding anywhere in the world, Blister Plus has you covered.

So check it out and sign up if you haven't already.

And with that, let's now kick off our new off-the-clock series with a guy who is definitely a better skier than Tom Brady.
