Damon Iwanaga was born to race flat track motorcycles, just like his dad. Eventually, he graduated to moto and his life path was set, he was going to turn pro and dominate the world of Supercross. That dream doesn’t work out for many people and Damon eventually found himself in community college figuring out life. But a move to Tahoe and a pivot to mountain bikes sent Damon’s life on a new trail. On the podcast we talk growing up with Tyler Bereman, moto, mtb, events, the cannabis connection and much more.

Kimmy Fasani is a trailblazing snowboarder who, not by choice, made a huge difference in women’s sports. Kimmy went from “Rider of the Year” to becoming a mom and when we last podcasted, the theme was, “will my sponsors stick by me?”. They did, but really, keeping sponsors is the last of Kimmy’s life worries. Between losing her parents to cancer, to having cancer, to so many other things, Kimmy’s life is not close to as easy as it looks and this podcast and her movie “Butterfly in a Blizzard” give a real look into what it’s like to have the best of times and the worst of times. It’s a heavy podcast and Sherry McConkey asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Lonie Paxton is a 3x Super Bowl Champion member of the New England Patriots dynasty and board member of the High Fives Foundation. That makes him the perfect guest this week as snow and football season are right around the corner. And, while Lonie is more known for his work on the gridiron, he loves action sports, especially snowboarding. That love, combined with his hustle, connections and access made him one of the first Red Bull ambassadors in the NFL. Then, after his time in the league, he went on to crush it with GoPro. It's a cool story and Roy Tuscany asks the Inappropriate Questions
