As always when Kim Jong Duh is in (what's left of) the white house, the scandals and nightmares come far too quickly and numerously for me to keep up. This song is about air traffic horribleness from earlier this year... and it seems appropriate to drag it out now, with the air traffic controllers on furlough (which might be over before this song gets to you). Oh well. You know me... I have to parody this classic John Denver song every few years. I think this is the fourth one. Wow. Music: John Denver Words: SG and Niamh Bagnell Guitar, mandolin, bass, piano, arrangement, production: SG
Matt Reardon made it from Louisiana, to Killington, to Tahoe, and then on to Chamonix. After that, on a trip to NZ for the World Heli Challenge, Matt blew his knee, got an infection during surgery and wasn't the same athlete for the next 3 years...So he became a rockstar. On part 2 of his podcast, we talk about more skiing, music, charting on his first singe, how business politics put his band, Black Sunshine, on hold, and much more.

Send us a textThis week, we're featuring an episode of Boulder Valley Frequency, a show from longtime Boulder journalist Shay Castle covering news across the county.In this episode of BVHz, Shay sits down with our very own senior reporter for The Mountain-Ear, Chris Kelley, for an update on Nederland's progress toward acquiring Eldora Ski Resort. Chris gives us a bit of perspective on the potential purchase, and while he's hopeful it will do a lot of good for the town, he reminds us to stay wary of the private group, 303 Ski, who helped structure the bond deal -- and who Nederland will be indebted to after the purchase is finalized.One small note: this episode of BVHz was recorded and published before the Nederland Board of Trustees Nov. 5 meeting, which provided an update and opportunity for public comment on the potential deal. For a complete update, you can read Chris Kelley's story in the Nov. 13 issue of The Mountain-Ear. Thank you for listening to The Mountain-Ear Podcast, featuring news and culture from peak to peak!

Where I compare MY Superpowers to those Superhero tough guys in the comic universe!
A long held military truism is about commanding the high ground in any fight: often regarded as a precursor to victory. In the days of digital evangelism, much is made of this tenet in a metaphorical sense: there are claims that controlling the digital high ground will guarantee success. But warfare continues to require operating and fighting in physical terrain. In recent conflicts, few forces have been able to avoid fighting in mountains: the prevailing forces usually exploit mountains as the literal high ground. In the Kargil War, Nagorno-Karabakh, Kashmir, Afghanistan, and in Ukraine, as well as in resistance operations by the Kurds, mountain warfare has been a significant feature in fighting. Mountain warfare involves mobility (skiing, snowshoeing, dogs, mules, sledges, et al), mountaineering (ascending, roped or free climbing, traverses, rappelling, etc), cold weather survival (including avalanche preparation), and operating at height. It is also warfare: the requirements are not simply surviving and operating in cold weather or high environments but to contest, challenge, and fight in these conditions. Warfare in such environments cannot simply be bases and patrols, they do (and will continue to) entail combat operations. The history of human conflict does indeed demonstrate the advantages in controlling the high ground. The literal high ground. The realities of mountain and cold weather warfare – and the C2 element of that – cannot be escaped. Which is why so many states retain trained, equipped, and specialist formations to perform this task. They are not simply specialist light infantry: they offer skills that enable success in the extreme terrains. Lance Blythe talks about his new(ish) book, Ski, Climb, Fight: The 10th Mountain Division and the Rise of Mountain Warfare.
Braga, King, and Ski talk about Weapons, the movie by Zach Cregger that took 2025 by storm. Seventeen kids run off into the night and a teacher, parent, cop, and crack head stumble on the reason. It sparked a bidding war with studios and made a fortune. Is it any good? Listen!

Simon Hillis is the best Indonesian skier to ever slide on snow and has been sponsored since he was 4 years old. While both of those things are crazy to think about, Simon also had his first cover at 7, he's never paid for anything ski-wise, and while skiing isn't totally paying his bills these days, they have over the past 20 plus years of his sponsored skier career. From winning contests to filming with Warren Miller and TGR, Simon is where he is because of his insane talent that he developed at Red Mountain, not marketing or flashiness. Simon Hillis Show Notes: 4:00: Marko Shapiro, sponsored at 4, his recent cover shot, the pressure of being the best Indonesian skier ever born, Red Mountain, video inspiration, a bad Pettit comparison 19:00: Therm-ic Heated Socks: The branded that invented Heated Socks Stanley: The brand that invented the category!

Dopamine Method: 3 Steps to Find Your Passion (Science-Backed) October 27, 2025 | Episode 5211 Host: Scott Smith Episode Description Still collecting productivity frameworks that don't actually work? Smart goals. Atomic habits. All those little tactics sitting in your notebook while you're still off track. Here's the thing. They're too tactical. You need something that's wired into how your brain actually works. Three simple steps that change how you feel about your world starting today. Not next month. Today. Scott breaks down the science-backed approach that makes motivation stick. No frameworks to memorize. Just three strategic shifts that light you up from the inside. And what he discovered about your anticipation engine might surprise you. Featured Story Ever notice how excited you got about Christmas as a kid? Scott did too. Then he became an adult. Boring. Just work. One day he said screw that. Started putting concerts on the calendar. Ski trips. Anything that got him genuinely excited. And his whole life shifted. He realized something most people miss. When you schedule experiences that fire you up, your mood changes. Your motivation increases. You can handle anything at the office when you've got something coming up this weekend. Most people lacking motivation are just lacking hope. That puts them in doubt and fear. The trick? You need to know you're growing toward something. Important Points Why looking at the past to solve present problems keeps you stuck in the same patterns you're trying to escape. The anticipation engine discovery that makes kids excited about holidays works just as powerfully for adults who remember to use it. How connecting with 5-10 truly like-minded people creates more momentum than 5,000 Facebook friends ever will. Exploring future possibilities lights up your brain differently than trying to fix your current situation. Memorable Quotes "The present doesn't stick around. The only thing that guides you is the future." "If you're not exploring and looking forward, most people look at the past. That's not going to work for you." "We were not designed to do things alone, but make no mistake, we're also not designed to do things with 10,000 people." "Two or more people actively engaged in the pursuit of a definite purpose with a positive mental attitude constitute an unbeatable force." Scott's Three-Step Approach 1. Explore future possibilities instead of past solutions. Stop asking what worked 20 years ago and start asking where your interest guides you next. 2. Fire up your anticipation engine by scheduling one experience that genuinely excites you. Concert tickets. Weekend trip. New dress. Anything that makes you eager. 3. Connect with like-minded people in smaller groups of 5-10 who actually vibe with you naturally. No forcing it. No proving how smart you are.

Braga, King, and Ski talk Upgrade, a movie about a technophile who has a chip implanted in his body when he becomes paralyzed that makes him able to kick ass.

This is both a parody and a cover song! The original parody is by our beloved Filker King, Tom Smith. Go to Tom Smith's bandcamp page to listen to the orig... er, the parody. In the process of getting ready to participate the Filker Song Swap "Cover to Cover: volume 3" various artists albums (organized by fellow Fump artist Madison Metricula Roberts), the randomizer happened to choose that I should cover a song by fellow Fump artist Tom Smith. I was given a choice of 2 songs, but of course I picked the one that is a parody of a song from my favorite musical, "The Pirates of Penzance" by Gilbert and Sullivan (the original song being officially entitled "Oh Better Far to Live and Die" but probably better known as "Pirate King"). Anyway, you should really look up the Filker Song Swap albums as well! They're on Bandcamp and several other locations. And then I asked Luke Ski for help getting a group of people together to do backing vocals, but he did such a good job on them by himself that I no longer felt an entire group was needed! And in case you somehow didn't figure this out, the subject matter of the song is Jack Skellington, the lead character of the 1993 Tim Burton stop-motion Halloween film "The Nightmare Before Christmas". Instrumental (real accordion and a Suzuki Andes 25F recorder keyboard!!), mixing and mastering by the wonderful Joe Jakubowski. Lyrics by Tom Smith. Lead vocals by Carrie Dahlby. Backing vocals and "gobble gobble" sound effect by Luke Ski.

The boys riff on ski brand “cult” followings and why certain gear inspires lifelong loyalty. We start with a fresh pickup, the Bent 110 GDs and use it to unpack the Atomic Bent phenomenon before widening out to other die-hards: Pivots, ZipFits, Black Crows, Mantra, and even indie stalwarts like Surface. Along the way, we revisit frontside carvers and spotlight a few underrated winners (Rossi's Arcade 94/84, Armada's Declivity line), plus a practical bindings chat: how Pivots feel different from Griffons, and when that matters for real-world skiers. A special guest drops in to set the stage for Boston's ski-film run: Hunter Henderson's multi-film night at Big Night Live (Oct 24), TGR at House of Blues (Nov 6), and a free in-store screening of Armada Ornada (Nov 8).

At some point it's gonna happen. Will you be ready?
Jess Hotter is the 2022 Freeride World Tour Champion and a fixture in ski movies but Jess wasn't a ski prodigy or anything like that when she was coming up. She had a ski life and future that screamed “liftie” but Jess wasn't going to settle for that. An initial push from her parents for a post high school gap year in Canada, created a ski journey that has had Jess living in more world class resorts than almost anyone on the podcast...All before she achieved her pro ski success. Jess played the long game, surrounded herself with what she loved, and it all worked out in the end. Yes, life can be that easy if you're as hard working and passionate as Jess. Australian legend Anna Segal asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Braga, King, and Ski talk about Vampires vs The Bronx, a movie about kids trying to save a bodega who end up having to save their borough. Method Man plays a priest, Zoe Saldana dies early, and Mero owns a Sammy Sosa bat. It's for kids. Is it any good? Listen!
Braga, King, and Ski talk: :15: packing cigs, Zyn adventures, getting rid of the enñe. 7:31: Oregon's loss, the young secondary getting exposed, the offensive line and Dante Moore failing, Will Stein giving up on the run. 23:53: The program changing win for Indiana, Cignetti's swag and new deal, what doomed James Franklin. 41:09: Rutgers trivia. 56:44: B1G lines. 1:04:50: Top 3 people from New Jersey.
When I discovered that Weird Al was actually on the bill at the most eclectic festival lineup I'd ever seen ("I can see Agnostic Front and Weird Al on the same day?!?" was my initial response) I had to drop "Start a Pac-Man-related cult" from my bucket list to make room for "participate in a Weird Al pit."* This has been one of many situational exceptions I've had to make to my well-documented "Too Old For The Pit" rule. I made perhaps too many exceptions during the weekend of Riot Fest, as my ribs remain bruised (presumably from Sunday's Screeching Weasel prancings,) but I appear to have survived. Highlights that I was unable to fit into the song: 1. A dude dressed as a banana in said pit 2. A dude dressed as Jesus in said pit (I told him "Hey! I read your book!") 3. Moshing to "Ricky." Seriously. "Ricky." 4. Watching Steve Jay and Jim West occasionally take photos of said pit 5. Watching a dude on the edge of said pit explain to his teenaged daughter the cardinal rule of "someone goes down, you help them up." Felt that in my soul. Special thanks to Al, whose birthday is next week. And also to my wife, for encouraging me to go to this thing. And to MC Lars for absolving me of the inadvertent theft of his "damn, son" bit. And to Dr. Demento for the years upon years of support...it just hit me that this is the first song I've ever released that has NO chance whatsoever of being played on the Dr. Demento show. But damned if he didn't end the show strong as hell, and on his own terms. (Barry, if you're reading this, all the best in your retirement.) * Apologies to anyone who has already converted their worldly posessions to tokens in anticipation of said cult. No refunds.

As I'm sure everyone who frequents this site already knows all too well, The Dr. Demento Show comes to an end this weekend after 55 glorious years of mad music and crazy comedy. And what better way to pay tribute to such a momentous finale than by attempting to recap the entire history of the good doctor's show - and thus, ostensibly the entire history of comedy music itself - into an eight-and-a-half-minute parody of Don McLean's classic rock staple "American Pie?" From the recently-released compilation album Fruits of the Smogberry Trees: The FuMP's Tribute to Dr. Demento, this song was a true labor of love. Barret Hansen, aka Dr. Demento, has enriched my life and livelihood far more than I can easily express, but this song was my attempt at expressing it anyway, and I hope you all enjoy it. Above all, don't you ever DARE forget to STAY DEEEEEEEEEEMENTED!!!! A Parody of "American Pie" Written by Don McLean Parody Lyrics by Tony Goldmark Vocals and Mixing: Tony Goldmark All Background Music: Jacob Martin Group Vocals on Last Chorus: Rob Bergman, Mike Cisneros, Emily Clark, Susan "Sulu" Dubow, Robbie Ellis, Tyler Green, Chris "Dizman" Grice, Robert Lund, Charlotte Driftwood Marlowe, Jacob Martin, Beth Paxton, Kit Quinn, Dr. Sarcofiguy, Luke Ski, Garrett Smith, Joe J.

Das Leben in den Alpen war noch nie ungefährlich. Die Naturgewalt der Berge prägt die Menschen und ihren Alltag dort seit jeher. Doch die Schlagzahl und Intensität von Bergstürzen, Schlammlawinen und Muren hat durch die Klimaerwärmung zugenommen und macht das Leben in den Bergen gefährlicher. BR-Journalist und Bergexperte Georg Bayerle erzählt in dieser Folge von Einheimischen, deren Heimat verschwindet und Forschenden, die nach Mitteln und Wegen suchen, die Gefahr in Zukunft zu begrenzen. Wie wird sich das Leben in den Alpen verändern? Hier geht's zu Georg Bayerles BR Story “Muren und Sturzfluten - Alpenorte kämpfen um ihre Zukunft": BR Story - alle verfügbaren Videos - jetzt streamen! In dieser früheren 11KM-Folge geht es um Kunstschnee, die Klimakrise und die Frage: Wie lange fahren wir noch Ski? https://1.ard.de/11KM_Kunstschnee_Klimakrise Hier geht's zu "Bergfreundinnen”, unserem Podcast-Tipp: https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/bergfreundinnen/urn:ard:show:95449e1fc5c91446/ Diese und viele weitere Folgen von 11KM findet ihr überall da, wo es Podcasts gibt, auch hier in der ARD Audiothek: https://www.ardaudiothek.de/sendung/11km-der-tagesschau-podcast/12200383/ An dieser Folge waren beteiligt: Folgenautor: Stephan Beuting Mitarbeit: Hannah Heinzinger, Lukas Waschbüsch Host: David Krause Produktion: Laura Picerno, Christiane Gerheuser-Kamp, Jürgen Kopp Planung: Hardy Funk und Caspar von Au Distribution: Kerstin Ammermann Redaktionsleitung: Fumiko Lipp und Nicole Dienemann 11KM: der tagesschau-Podcast wird produziert von BR24 und NDR Info.

Sometimes you just gotta vent for a minute. Or, well, a minute and 12 seconds. ("Orwell." Ha.) Perhaps you know the original. The parody was dreamed up (i.e., waking-nightmared up) by Spaff, and all the music and vocals were performed by Robert Lund. Both of whom, by the time you read this, will probably have been deported to Uganda. Hopefully the capital has an Abbey Road.
Jamie Starr has had more great jobs in the ski industry than most guests I've had on the show. Really, he was born to be a part of this industry. Growing up in Crested Butte taught Jamie a love of the mountains and understanding of what it takes to make non-traditional athletes tick, which all helped him in his later endeavors. But what drove Jamie was a passion to not only be the best, but to do good and really make a difference in the world. On the podcast we talk about law school, his incredible career with brands like The North Face, Spyder, DPS, Pomoca, how to handle athlete loss, and more. It's a business episode with one of the few lawyers I've had on the podcast.

Braga, King, and Ski talk about the most polarizing movie in the Fast and the Furious franchise, Tokyo Drift. No Paul Walker and Vin Diesel makes a forced cameo in a movie about a high school kid (who looks 30) forced to move to Japan. Can he win over the Australian girl and beat the Yakuza bro in a race? Is the movie any good? Listen!
Braga, King, and Ski give their instant reactions to Oregon's 2OT win over Penn State. Ride or die Dante Moore, bum ass Drew Allar, Oregon winning with dominant defense, Dierre Hill taking center stage, the jump from Pac-12 to B1G away games.
Emily Childs is a helicopter pilot, and while that's pretty rad, her side gig, being a pro skier who travels the world in search of deep powder and insane lines, is even more badass. But, Emily didn't have the traditional track into pro skiing, she was never the best, she didn't stand on many podiums, but what she did have was passion, and the right crew of friends to start making ski edits with. From there, her crew, The Blondes, created a lot of momentum and three pro ski careers.

Peter Mehrhof was an early part of the "New School" ski movement but in the long run, Peter cared more about school than being a pro skier. Coming up in Mammoth, Peter was champion water skier and a fast ski racer who eventually made a pivot to the park and pipe and in no time was on the K2 Factory Team. And then Pete chose college and disappeared form skiing, only to resurface behind a boat and a desk in the world of wakeboarding. It's a cool story of a pioneer and engineer. Don Wallace asks the Inappropriate Questions.
