Lindsey Jacobellis was the darling of the 2022 Olympic Games with her double gold performance. But while Lindsey has always been a podium threat (she’s a 10x X-Games Gold Medalist) when she crashed and took silver at the 2006 Olympic Games, the world made her a villain and now, almost 20 years later, she finally has that Olympic Gold. This episode is all about Lindsey’s incredible redemption story, and we talk about her upbringing, Palmer, the Olympic blunder, winning, and so much more. Alex Diebold asks Inappropriate Questions.

Alex Beaulieu-Marchand wasn’t born to be an Olympian. He was one of those core super-grom kids who skied the streets with his older friends. While other future Olympians were focused on adding rotations, ABM was focused on mastering rails, which would become his secret weapon. Through a random series of events, ABM found his way on to the Dew Tour and from there, the contest opened for the kid who liked skiing the streets. On the podcast, we talk urban, contests, not having a win-at-all-costs mentality, and a lot more. Alexi Godbout asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Alex Beaulieu-Marchand Show Notes:

I get someone my guest knows well to ask their friend 3 questions and they can be anything, the more inappropriate the better. This week I went back into the archive from episodes 294 to episode 356 and pulled the best IQ questions and answers. Think names like Tanner Hall, AJ Kitt, Peter Line, Rachael Burks, JT Holmes, Colby Stevensen and many others.

Rick Thorne is a BMX legend and the grind that he put in to achieve legendary status is why I do these podcasts. Rick wasn’t born with a silver spoon in his mouth in a nice ski town. He grew up with a single mom, a sister, and the support of the infamous Kansas City bike crew, The BMX Brigade, led by Dennis McCoy. Through DMC, Rick saw a pathway to success, and, while it took a decade of grinding to make it happen for himself, Rick made it on his bike and headed west to the land of opportunity. The rest of the story is a total rollercoaster. On the podcast, we talk about the University of Olive Garden, the Hoffman influence, TV work, his band, and so much more. It’s a do not miss episode, and the Inappropriate Questions come from none other than Mike “Rooftop” Escamilla

Guenther Oka was looked at as the best all-around wakeboarder in the world…and then he had a devastating knee injury. While there was uncertainty, Guenther worked his ass off during physio, put out a Red Bull project and this year, he’s back to the competition scene. With podiums in his first 3 events back, not only has Guenther not lost a step, but he’s stepped forward with a brand-new mindset, which could be scary for his competition.
