125 Roller Coaster Challenge - Trimmed & Stapled Podcast

Introducing the 125 Roller Coaster Challenge - Trimmed & Stapled Podcast We know what you are thinking, ”Great another podcast about roller coaster top ten lists and ride debates”. Well yes, sort of... While Trimmed & Stapled will include our thoughts and opinions on the best hyper coasters we have ridden, which Disney parks has the best theming, and which wooden coaster needs to become the next RMC hybrid, we would also like to take a different approach. Each week we will spend about a half hour discussing our journey while we try to ride 125 new credits a season. So along with our lists we want to share our experiences, tell you why we choose to visit a particular park, why we did the coasters in a particular order and our journey from being GP to actually proudly calling ourselves enthusiasts. 125 Roller Coaster Challenge started out as a family adventure and each week we want to share that with you because when it is all said and done, the best memories come from the people who shared the ride. Trimmed & Stapled debuts on December 1st, 2020 and will have a new adventure every Tuesday. Come share the ride with us

The new year is upon us so it is time for our roller coaster rankings and like last year, we kick it all off with our "Ouch" list which is the 25 (in this case 26) worst roller coasters we have ridden.  This is a double episode because we breakdown the coaster styles, which parks have these coasters and even discuss the 8 coasters who have left the list either because we got better rides on them, or which is more likely, we found w...

It's Thanksgiving and we know a lot of our listeners are on the road traveling to get some turkey for the holidays so we decided to throw together a cool ERT episode giving everyone a sneak peek into our 2023 plans.

As you know we kicked off our 2nd year doing our 125 Roller Coaster Challenge riding Twisted Timbers at their media day so we figured, maybe we can be one of the first riders on Cedar Point's newest roller coaster, Steel Vengeance.  We found out that Lebron James was holding a first rider benefit and we got our butts down to Cedar Point to attend.
