| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody, welcome back to the Blister podcast on the Blister Podcast Network. |
| 0:07.9 | I'm Jonathan Ellsworth, and you can check out everything we're doing and reviewing over at blisterreview.com. |
| 0:17.0 | All right, today Cody Townsend finally is back on to review the news with me. |
| 0:23.9 | We missed last month that was entirely Cody's fault, but the guy's been up to some stuff, |
| 0:30.3 | so we're going to cut him some slack. |
| 0:31.9 | And not only that, we're actually going to talk quite a bit about exactly what Cody has been up to and why he hasn't been |
| 0:40.1 | available to record this reviewing the news segment. So yeah, Cody gives us quite a good update on |
| 0:46.6 | what's been going on with the 50 projects and some of the successes and challenges of the |
| 0:53.1 | project. So that's where we kick things off. |
| 0:56.1 | And then we start talking about one really stupid story, then one really, I think, inspiring story. |
| 1:04.9 | We have a head scratcher of a story. |

| 1:36.3 | Now, there's probably a number of you who have begun to put your skis away for this season. |
| 1:47.3 | Now, that's not Cody, and that's not me. I'm actually leaving for Iceland. By the time you hear this, I might be in Iceland. So we're |
| 1:53.0 | keeping this skiing thing still going and Cody is too and you're going to hear about that in a |
| 1:58.0 | minute. But for many other people, it's time to put the skis away and you're |
| 2:03.3 | breaking out your mountain bike or your running shoes or maybe your golf clubs. And so before you |
| 2:10.6 | put those skis away, you should check out Mountain Flow's base prep wax. And you can also check out at Mountainflow.com, their tutorial |
| 2:20.7 | on offseason ski storage. I'm actually going to be bringing with me some of Mountain Flow's |
