    Tommy Moe – Olympic Gold Medal Ski Racer, Alaska Heli-Ski Guide, Co-Founder of Tordrillo Mountain Lodge in Alaska

    “Downhill ski racing sure is fun. It’s like being your own race car, but there’s no frame around you to save you. It’s just aerodynamics, skis, a skin-tight suit – zip it up, pull up your tidy whities, and go for it.” – Tommy Moe My guest today is Tommy Moe. Tommy made the US Ski Team at 16 years old He started competing in the World Cup at 20 Tommy was the first American male ski racer to win two medals at one Olympics – one gold and one silver, both at the Lillehammer Norway Winter Olympics in 1994 He wore a Cowboy Hat at the Gold Medal Ceremony. He went to three Olympics – 1992 in France, 1994 in Norway, and 1998 in Japan. Tommy was on the cover of Sports Illustrated in 1994 He was a five-time national champion Tommy podiumed seven times in the World Cup & skied in three world championships. He was on the World Cup for nine years and on the US Ski Team for 12 years After his impressive ski racing career, Tommy co-founded a world-class Alaska heli-ski company named Tordrillo Mountain Lodge in a roadless, remote zone in Alaska Tommy is a lead heli-ski guide, and his company hosts some of the best skiers and riders in the world, including Travis Rice & Cody Townsend Tommy was elected to the US National Ski Hall of Fame in 2003 “The great thing about skiing that I enjoy is that you control everything happening. It’s like you can turn your brain off and start making turns down the mountain; you just don’t think it’s all reaction. I’m 51 years old, and I still feel like a little kid on the slopes.” - Tommy Moe This podcast first aired on January 4, 2022.

  4. Bode Miller - The Winningest American Male Ski Racer of All-Time

    22 OCT.

    Bode Miller - The Winningest American Male Ski Racer of All-Time

    "I don't think I have a lot of fear. I think I'm very respectful of the mountains and understand the danger that's inherently there. I think I have a healthy dose of awareness of the unpredictable nature of being in the mountains and snow conditions, but I wouldn't call it fear. It's more understanding that you're constantly putting yourself in unforgiving environments. Fear is more of a mindset. I don't consider myself afraid." - Bode Miller This episode first aired on February 16, 2021. This week, we bring you Bode Miller. In this episode, Bode and Miles discuss skiing in the Olympics, skiing on the World Cup, losing friends in the mountains, throwing a 360º in competition, his "CBS 60-minutes" hung-over skiing controversy, the dangers of ski racing, and much more. Bode Miller is the winningest American male ski racer of all time. Bode has won six Olympic Medals - one of them a gold medal. He's podiumed 79 times on the World Cup, with 33 being first place. He's won two World Cup Overall Titles. He's among only five men in history to have won World Cup events in all five alpine ski disciplines. And he's the only skier with five or more victories in each discipline. What I found out in this podcast is that Bode is a general all-around mountain badass who has been almost everywhere and done almost everything in the mountains, including getting caught in gnarly avalanches, throwing misty 720s and double front flips, and losing over 50 friends and acquaintances in the mountains. His stories are one of a kind, and so is he. “When I was eight, I was following two local ski bums, which I guess I would call my friends, but they were probably 20 years older than me. I don't know that they would have called me their friend at that time. But I just chased them around the mountain all the time. I watched a guy walk out of a pair of MRR bindings and old markers and go straight into a beech tree at about 50 miles an hour. No helmet. I was the first one there because I was just 200 yards behind him, and he was just exploded. His head was just apart, still bubbling breath. That was a pretty nasty eye-opener. He passed away while I was right there." - Bode Miller Bode Miller answers these heavy questions: Which ski racing discipline is your favorite and why? How dangerous is ski racing? I've heard you say: "I'm amazed more people don't die ski racing." What makes you say that? How do ski racers make money? Is a good system in place? I recently watched the movie American Downhiller, which focused on the rivalry between Americans and Europeans in male world cup ski racing. What did you experience in your ski racing career in Europe? Are you the only ski racer in history to have thrown a 360º on the racecourse in a World Cup competition? Are performance-enhancing drugs prevalent in ski racing? What was it like partying in the Olympic Village? Have you ever been in an avalanche? What happened? What's your biggest accomplishment in life? What challenges you most intellectually daily? What's your favorite book? More...
