Freedom takes flight in the urban sprawl of futuristic Japan, where motorized inline skates called Air Treks have transformed not just transportation, but an entire underground culture. When high schooler Ikki Minami stumbles upon this world through his connection with the mysterious Noyamano sisters, his life changes forever as he discovers his potential to soar beyond the ordinary.Air Gear masterfully combines pulse-pounding sports action with a vibrant street culture aesthetic that still feels electric nearly two decades after its release. The series follows Ikki's journey from novice skater to potential "Sky King" contender, accompanied by his eclectic team of friends with unique abilities. Each character brings their distinct "road" – specialized techniques that define their skating styles and personalities – creating battles and races that are as much about personal expression as they are about victory.What truly sets Air Gear apart is how it balances its adrenaline-fueled premise with deeper themes of rebellion, identity, and the universal human desire to break free from constraints. The relationships between characters – particularly the complex dynamic between Ikki, Ringo, and the mysterious Simca – add emotional weight to the gravity-defying stunts. Meanwhile, the dual-personality character Agito/Akito (who switches personas by moving his eyepatch) provides some of the series' most compelling moments.While the anime only scratches the surface of what the manga eventually explores, even this glimpse into the world of Storm Riders offers something special. The unique blend of sports, science fiction, comedy, and coming-of-age elements creates an experience unlike anything else in anime. For those who've never experienced Air Gear, it's time to strap on those ATs and discover why fans have been calling for a modern reboot of this underrated gem.

This week, we're honored to welcome Olga Bak, friend and advisor to Travel Nepal Himalaya's Treks, the local guide company that helped our group navigate the challenging journey to Mount Everest base camp. Developing an early connection with Nepal during her first trek in 2013, Olga's spontaneous "yes" to adventure evolved into something deeper—a calling to build bridges between travelers and this extraordinary Himalayan nation.Olga takes us on a journey through her transformation from first-time trekker to passionate advocate for Nepal. She describes that pivotal moment when she climbed a 4,000-meter peak at 3 AM to witness the sunrise, feeling surrounded by stars so close "it really did feel like we could just reach and grab them like apples from trees." That initial experience sparked what would become a lifelong mission to help others understand Nepal not just as a destination for mountain views, but as a place of profound spiritual and personal transformation.In this episode, we explore the meaning behind "Nepal: Never Ending Peace And Love," the unique character of the Himalayan landscape, and how Olga's relationship with guide Badri has created opportunities to support local communities. Join us for a deep and moving conversation about finding purpose through saying yes to adventure, embracing discomfort as a path to growth, and what it truly means to experience the transformative power of the mountains.
NINE OWN SELF. This month's animated spotlight features a pair of episodes that go to great lengths to give our cartoon characters some badly needed introspection.

Oh, and there's plenty of nostalgia for Bryan with a trip to Deep Space Nine. But will he and Katie Hampton from the Napping Through Happy Hour Podcast give these episodes TREKs, MARRYs, or KILLs? The grades begin at (26:44).
