NEVER FAR FROM HOME

TALES TOLD

THROUGH THE PEOPLE

WHO MAKE HOCKEY

HAPPEN.

A podcast highlighting the community of the rink through storytelling.

I find the reasons my guests have fallen in love with the community, and what keeps them coming back.

Why Podcasts? Because storytelling started through verbal communication. I want to directly connect you with those stories, heard from the people who lived them.

I WANTED TO

BREAK THAT MOLD

FOR MYSELF.

So often, we hear people talk of the long trip, be it to find love, happiness, or themselves. Too many of those people get anchored to their way of life, the contentment of knowing a paycheck is coming, and the general comfort of a life they have earned, and know.

I wanted to break that mold for myself. So, I did. I set out on a journey across the country, living out of my truck. I was lucky enough to explore the whole East Coast, and check off fifteen states. The goal of an in person interview in all fifty remains. While life has brought me back to the Yampa Valley…

THE NEXT EVOLUTION OF NEVER FAR FROM HOME IS HERE.

I will be hosting events all across the nation, and will keep telling as many stories as I can.

I want to keep sharing the rink community with you the listener, and I think there is no better way to do it than through the tales of those who are involved, who were involved, and who will be involved soon.
