    90 PSI and John Elway

    An excerpt from my uncle's book about a high-stakes bet he made my dad during his early days working for the Denver Broncos.   My dad was also pranked many times by John Elway during his 20+ years working for the team, and this is one of those stories.

    Skiing is Dead

    A little talk show format for you today. There's an elephant in the room: Skiing is dead.  It used to be great. It's time to take up another hobby. Do you love skiing? We discuss it here in a heated argument between three Colorado natives and friends who grew up on the slopes. ThomasHarpole.com

    This is Water by David Foster Wallace

    The late David Foster Wallace was a legendary, MacArthur-Fellow-winning genius that I really look up to.    His books and short stories are so well-written and his writing will change the way you think about storytelling.     Take a deep dive into his work! This episode of replays the commencement speech he did at Kenyon College and talks about freedom, discipline, awareness, American adult life, liberal arts education, and where we, as humans, look for truth.   I wanted to have a place where the audio will be forever, and it will be on this podcast! Check out Infinite Jest, The View from Mrs. Thompson's, A Supposedly Fun Thing I'll Never Do Again, Consider The Lobster, Big Red Son, and all of his good stuff.    All rights and credits for this speech belong to the David Foster Wallace Estate, there is no advertising revenue and this episode is designed for the public benefit.
