350: 'Maybe I Should Use Cocaine', with Joe McConaughy and Scott Sowle
This week's chat with PNW's North Bend Trail Fest race director's Joe McConaughy and Scott Sowle provides me with the perfect distraction from my own race prep for Beast to discuss the news of the moment: doping among influential trail runners. Joe shares his elite athlete perspective and we discuss the challenges for race directors trying to navigate the seemingly insurmountable financial challenges to provide doping controls at our events. Also: come race in the PNW. Our trails are awesome, Mount Ellinor and Mount Si are calling you!

347: 'Live on Course, But Better', with Josh Rosenthal
Josh joins me on Singletrack to talk about the future of trail race reporting and the fascination of livestreams. He's built a prototype (Live on Trail) that mimics a massive dashboard displaying various 'on course' information streams with the hope of making the on-screen talents more knowledgeable and the viewing experience more enjoyable. What I love about this effort – vibe-coded and all – is that it goes beyond "hey I have an opinion" and actually "throwing something against the wall". Let's see if it sticks.
