The Xtra Edge: A KINEXON Sports Podcast

Welcome to the podcast where the real stories behind athletic performance take center stage. Here, coaches, sports scientists, and data-driven thinkers share the moments that shaped their work—the wins, the setbacks, and the breakthroughs that don’t always make headlines. Each episode dives into how performance decisions get made, what the data really says, and the human side of pushing athletes to be their best. It’s not just about the science—it’s about the stories that bring it to life.

    Betrayal Season 5

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
