Summary
Jeremy Nobis is a living legend cwho describes his life and times on skis as often misunderstood. But I believe there is no misunderstanding; Jeremy was a race prodigy, making the US Ski Team at 16 and racing on the World Cup until he was 26 years old. Then, Jeremy transitioned to the big mountains, and singlehandedly changed the way people ski them. In part 2 with Nobis, we talk about Alaska, TGR, Tordrillo Mountain Lodge, DUIs, etc. Kristen Ulmer asks the Inappropriate Questions.

| 0:02.3 | It's time to talk some shit on the Powell Movement. |
| 0:13.5 | Welcome to the Powell Movement. |
| 0:17.1 | I'm your host Mike Powell, and while it hasn't hit me yet, my ski season is over. |
| 0:21.6 | It was a great year and while I'm bummed it's done, it's time for me to figure out what my summer plans are going to be. |
| 0:27.6 | And they're shaping up nicely. |
| 0:29.6 | My dad is taking us on a week-long Alaska cruise. |
| 0:32.6 | I was stupid when I worked at K2 and I never went on a trip to Alaska. |
| 0:36.6 | My last month there, we had a trip to |
| 0:39.2 | Aliaska set up and I was going to go, but when I put in my notice, I realized that I should pull |
| 0:44.1 | the plug and let somebody else at K2 go. While I did that, it was very dumb of me and I should |
| 0:48.9 | have taken advantage of that opportunity and every opportunity that was put in front of me. And if you're one of these people that |
| 0:54.6 | work at a ski brand or anybody in the industry, take advantage of every single trip and every |
| 0:59.6 | opportunity that comes in front of you, unless you have a child. When that happens, then you can |
| 1:03.9 | kind of skip some of those opportunities to make sure that you maximize your time with your kid |
| 1:07.9 | as they're growing up. But if you don't have a kid and you have one of these dream jobs that are giving you these trips, |
| 1:13.2 | don't think, oh, I've traveled too much and I don't want to go on this next trip. |
| 1:17.6 | Maximize your opportunities. |
| 1:19.1 | That's all I can say about that. |
| 1:20.9 | And while I was so dumb about that, I am still going to Alaska this July and I'm stoked. While I'm concerned with the cruise part, as I've |
| 1:28.3 | never been on a cruise and I've only seen COVID horror stories in the news, it should be pretty |
| 1:32.9 | interesting. And then after the Alaska cruise, we're doing a week in Rahobith Beach, Delaware. |
