Welcome to Season Two of "For the Love of Winter," A weekly podcast that explores our cultural love affair with winter sports, the mountains, and of course the people who are shaped and forever changed by their love of winter.
This week, Kendra sat down with Miles Phillips, the UK-born skier who claimed the crown as Mr. Slush Cup 2025. From learning to ski on an 80-metre dry slope to mastering Sunshine Village’s terrain, Miles shares how a gap year turned into a life-changing love affair with the mountains. Hear about his winning Slush Cup strategy, life in Banff as an 18-year-old from the U.K., the quirks of Canadian winters, and why he believes skiing is simply the best sport on earth.
What is it you love about winter? Is it the thrill, the beauty, the stillness? As Canadian’s winter is part of our DNA. The snowy season is something that unites from coast to coast. For The Love of Winter, is a podcast that celebrates Canada’s longest season.
