Summary

Roll On resurfaces from the chrysalis! Adam Skolnick and I unpack 90 days post-surgery, why the caterpillar needs a tortoise mind to become a butterfly, and the death of authentic podcasting. On tap: The state of Podcastistan, why I'm breaking up with viral culture, and the unexpected joy of moving at glacier pace. We explore Phil Stutz's three truths, Alaska's last frontier vibes, and why Deadwood still hits different. Plus: Movies are officially back, friends of the pod crushing impossible distances—because regular suffering is passé—and why community beats audience every damn time. Enjoy!

0:00.0	Hey, everybody. Roll on is back, and it's coming right up, but first.
0:07.6	After hosting more than 900 episodes of this podcast, I have noticed a pattern, and that pattern
0:13.9	is that the highest performers don't buy into the latest trendy hacks. Instead, they obsess
0:20.0	on what actually works, which is always the
0:23.3	unassuming basics. And there is nothing more basic than hydration. But here's the kicker. Your
0:29.0	body can't hold on to water without the right minerals. Without them, water is just like this
0:33.8	temporary visitor. But Element has cracked the code on this,
0:38.3	which is why I've been using it religiously for years,
0:41.4	zero sugar, no artificial junk,
0:43.9	just sodium, potassium, and magnesium
0:46.2	in the ratios that actually work.
0:48.4	And look, I'm not exactly crushing ultras right now,
0:52.1	healing from this surgery,
0:53.7	but in some ways I need it even more.
0:56.3	In order to properly recover, I need to treat my body even better than ever, so it can
1:02.2	heal properly and expeditiously, while also maintaining my focus and my energy levels to rock out
1:08.1	all of these podcasts, write a book, be a husband and a dad. And I got to say,
1:12.5	Element keeps my brain firing in a way that water alone can't. Their new sample pack features

1:25.4	orange salt. Eight stick packs total, perfect for finding
1:28.6	your favorite or sharing with a friend. Get a free eight count sample pack of elements most
