A special episode with the voice of snowboarding, Todd Richards, to discuss the recent announcement of Shaun White's Snow League and the X Games League. As Todd puts it, going from no contests on the horizon to a ton, this is all going to get very interesting. Todd joins Mark Clavin and T. Bird to clarify some of the questions surrounding the new leagues, as well as talk potential impact for riders, fans and more. Will we finally have a mainstream tour that as snowboarders we can call our own? Only time will tell!

Sorry we are a bit late this week! But this one is worth it! Do pro snowboarders feel bad for damaging public property? We ask the latest pro snowboarder to join the Mark My Bird podcast, the one-and-only Jake Kuzyk! We also cover Kuzyk's love for Cleveland, Ohio and smaller U.S. cities, why Vancouver is a "golden handcuffs" situation, the epic Landline part, and why he is wearing yellow sunglasses! Listen in to one of the best to ever do it and remember, tell your friends in marketing about it so we can get some sponsors!

Climbing the ladder quick among up-and-comers in the streets, Montana-raised Iris Pham is on a trajectory rarely seen these days in snowboarding. Podiuming at rail jams and dropping video parts the last few seasons, Iris takes time from her apartment on wheels to talk to Clavin and T. Bird about van life, her burgeoning career, upcoming projects, and staying calm in the streets. As an anchor on the Never Summer team, Iris' style has caught the attention of just about everyone in snowboarding, so we figured it would be great to catch up with her while she had some time. Enjoy the hour convo before she had to jump and go surf a river wave!

Longtime friend, filmer and now director, Mia Lambson, sits down with T. Bird and Clavin to talk about her latest documentary project diving into the women who made the modern-day pro possible. The crew talks about the current freelance world in action sports for videographers and photographers, walks down memory lane when all three worked at Snowboarder Magazine, and laughs about the time they sent Mark into a parking garage with a bear. Enjoy.

A huge guest for the podcast today! Pro snowboarder Mark McMorris (3x Olympic medalist, 23x X Games medalist) checks in with our editors T. Bird and Clavin for the fifth episode of the Mark My Bird podcast (available to listen anywhere you get your podcasts). McMorris talks about sitting courtside at NBA playoff games, medals vs. broken bones, Jake Burton Carpenter, and plenty more. Jump on in and enjoy!

Surfing, taxes and the secret to a good turn. We sit down with one of the most stylish snowboarders to ever strap in, Blake Paul, and get his take on the list above. A newly-celebrated member of the Ride Snowboards team, as well as a veteran of the Vans Snow crew, Blake has been on top of his game ever since his first major premiere in SNOWBOARDER Mag's Foreword a decade ago. Enjoy a convo with editors Mark Clavin and T. Bird as they talk the upcoming offseason, Blake's career, and much more.

Pro snowboarder Jill Perkins joins editors Mark Clavin and T. Bird on the new podcast to talk about her pro basketball career cut short by snowboarding, a Disney illustrator possibly designing her next pro graphic, and plenty more. Huge thanks to Jill for jumping on from Salt Lake City as we figure out what the hell we are doing with this podcast! We finally have all of our episodes over from Youtube, so now you can expect weekly shows coming out.

T. Bird and Mark Clavin check in with Bend royalty, Jared Elston, as he waits to see if he is going heliboarding in Alaska. Pardon a few of the audio issues, Jared was using his phone for a hot spot but to be honest, it held up pretty great! They cover working out with Travis Rice, going from Adidas to Arc’teryx, his current trip, Natural Selection, filming for Brown Cinema, the housing market in Bend, and plenty more! Listen in for another episode of Mark My Bird!
