New podcast - This Week in Skating

[TanithandBenFan]

Daphne Backman from Ice-dance.com and Gina Capellazi from Figure Skaters Online have a new weekly podcast This Week in Skating. The first episode dropped today. I thought it was a great summation of all the news from the week and other tidbits!

Thanks! Gina and I are really hoping to grow and improve the podcast over time and will be adding interviews, etc. very soon. Constructive criticism is always appreciated.

 

[Daphne]

We're doing our first interview with Jordan from On Ice Perspectives. Let me know if you have any questions you'd like us to ask.

Fabulous work, @Daphne. We've shared the link on our Facebook page.

We were fortunate to interview Susanna Rahkamo about her nomination for ISU President and her manifesto: https://redcircle.com/shows/this-we...episodes/fa0475c2-5761-46cd-a446-c255f34d0ee1

Last week was a busy week in the skating world! Daphne and I (Gina) broke down all of the big developments from the ISU Congress. Plus, there was lots of other news to talk about -- from the announcement of Michelle Kwan's induction into the U.S. Olympic Hall of Fame to Nathan Chen writing a book to the retirement of Kirsten Moore-Towers and Michael Mariano.

A big bonus are the weekly "Episode Notes" in writing, which are a terrific resource unto themselves.

I appreciate being able to read a concise overview of highlights. (With links included too.)

Thank you to @Daphne and @Gina_FigureSkatersOnline.

Thank you to @Daphne and @Gina_FigureSkatersOnline.

Thanks @ice coverage! That was a suggestion from a listener. It's easy for us to include those based on our notes from recording.

Our latest episode is now available: https://redcircle.com/shows/this-week-in-skating-podcast

It's a short episode this week!

 

[Frau Muller]

Bravo - Bravi! I appreciate that your podcasts are succinct and to-the-point…but with enough sass to not be dry. A perfect complement to TSL, which utilizes the rambling method a bit more…but is also entertaining. One for the coffee break; another for afternoon tea!

Our last episode for the month of June was a busy one -- there was a lot for @Daphne and me to discuss! So check out our latest episode here: https://redcircle.com/shows/this-week-in-skating-podcast

We usually record our podcasts on Sunday evenings. This past Sunday, Daphne and I decided to delay recording our podcast to Monday evening with the hopes that we would have Grand Prix assignments by then. Unfortunately, we still don't have Grand Prix assignments! However, there was still plenty of news and events to talk about in our latest episode, which is out now!

I’m looking forward to the big G-P Series skaters/events analysis!

Eva Pate and Logan Bye will be guests on our podcast next week. We had scheduled them to be on our podcast before news of their engagement came out yesterday so it looks like we now have more things to talk about with them

We are asking fans to submit their questions for Eva and Logan -- whether it be about the season, their programs or even their recent engagement. You can post your questions here or you can email them to Daphne and me at [email protected]. We are talking with them this Sunday - so we need questions by then!

How exciting! I will be listening. I was hooked on them last season with their wonderful Hunger Games FD and now I am even more excited to see Riverdance. As a long time dance fan, I was quite enthralled with Bourne and Kraatz back in the day. Of course they are known for their iconic Riverdance program from 1998. I want to ask Eva and Logan how they decided to revisit an iconic program and from what I have seen of it so far, put their own style on it. I find ice dance to be a lot more intricate now than it was in the 90s and it is exciting to see a young team breathe new life into Riverdance. Also, congratulations on the engagement! Beautiful couple.
