Summary

Outside Festival is a first-year event in Denver aimed at bringing the outdoor industry, the consumers, the brands and the athletes together. I’m hearing this called the intersection of SBSW and CES for the outdoor industry. Outside has swung for the fences a lot over the years, and I travel to Colorado to see if the event lives up to the massive expectations. Along the way, I connect with Pat Milbery, Colter Hinchliffe, Shaun White, Robin Thurston, Jess Kimura, Julian Carr, Luis Benitez, Conrad Anker, and many more. It’s behind the scenes look at the first great Outside Festival.

0:00.0	Have a seat on your porcelain throne.
0:02.3	It's time to talk some shit on the Powell Movement.
0:13.5	Welcome to the Powell Movement.
0:16.8	I'm your host Mike Powell, and I want to thank all of you who bought a t-shirt so far.
0:21.6	I'm almost through all of the large teas, so snatch one up now while you still can.
0:26.6	When I made this t-shirt, I was like, yeah, I'm going to create some cool merch, I'm going
0:30.6	to sell it and make some money because I want the listeners to have some rad shit and I love money.
0:35.6	But the funny thing is, I'm selling a limited amount of shirts.
0:38.6	And when I penciled this one out, I'm not going to make much. I mean, the shirts are 10 bucks
0:42.8	apiece. The art costs money, the printing costs money, the shipping costs money, the bags I ship
0:48.2	them in cost money. At the end of the day, I'm going to end up making about $4 a t-shirt. And after the time it takes to ship them,

1:00.2	what I do understand is why some brands go to Asia to cut costs and make some longer margins.
1:05.3	But from personal experience, I've seen the difference in quality from goods that come out
1:09.8	of Asia, and that's why I made my shit right here in the good old US of A.
1:14.3	And while I won't make much off of this shirt, I'm happy to know that I spared no expense to give you the best, because you deserve it.
1:21.4	So that was my friendly reminder on how to support the show, because you can do that by buying a t-shirt on my website.
1:27.1	I could have made life easier on myself and just asked for four bucks from all of you, but I you can do that by buying a t-shirt on my website. I could have made life
1:27.9	easier on myself and just asked for four bucks from all of you, but I decided not to do that. If I ever do
1:33.4	need to beg for money, I'll start a Patreon, but the time for that is not now. The time for now is
1:38.3	talking about the show this week, and I'm recording this episode in installments for my hotel room
1:43.0	in Denver. I'm here attending the outside festival.
