BLISTER Podcast

Jonny Moseley is one of the true pioneers of freestyle skiing, he’s an Olympic gold medal mogul skier, he’s responsible for one of the most iconic moments in the history of modern skiing, and he is still very much at the forefront of skiing today. And in this conversation, we talk about it all.

Breezy Johnson just won the 2026 Olympic Gold Medal in women’s Downhill, and she also won Gold at the 2025 World Championships. So Breezy and Jonathan talk about winning Gold, but Breezy also talks about how she navigates the highs and the lows of life — and ski racing — in a way that most of us can likely learn from.

Connery Lundin is one of our favorite skiers because of his great style, but also because he’s one of the most well-rounded skiers out there. So he’s the perfect person to talk about a new concept, the ‘BOSS’ — Blister’s Overall Sickest Skier — and what the ideal background would be to become the BOSS.

We’ll be asking this question of a number of people in upcoming conversations, and we’d love to hear your thoughts on who is the...

Then, we talk about the ‘carving renaissance’ we are currently experiencing, and Ted walks us through the new DPS Pisteworks skis he’s been developing...

Today we are launching a new Blister Podcast special series, called, 'Off the Clock.’ And fittingly, given that the England Patriots are in the Super Bowl this Sunday, we are kicking things off with former New England Patriots quarterback, Drew Bledsoe. But what you might not know about this former #1 pick in the NFL draft is that his first love wasn’t football, it was skiing. And today, you’ll hear just how meaningful skiing has b...

The past few days have been filled with some incredible highs: Mikaela Shiffrin’s latest record; Alex Honnold’s latest climb; Eileen Gu’s ongoing run; Mark McMorris’ X Games dominance; and Ben Richards’ hot start on the FWT. But at the same time, we are all witnessing some staggering lows. And today, we talk about it all.

On December 27, 2025, the Telluride Ski Patrol went on strike. Chuck Horning, the owner of Telluride Ski Resort, then closed the ski area indefinitely. So what is going on in Telluride? What does it mean for the town and residents of Telluride? And what does this strike — and others — say about the current state of mountain towns and the ski-resort industry? To discuss all of these things and more, we are talking with ski-indu...
