- Ep. 90 - Jon Absey speaks about the break-up between him and the Utah Jazz - Part 2 of 2In this episode, we continue our interview with Jon Absey, the original Jazz Bear. This is definitely one of the funnest episodes we've ever done, so don't miss it!We dive into some interesting topics. We ask Jon about what happened in 2018 when the Jazz started the season without him as the bear. Jon shares some insights about changes in management and the impact of Larry Miller's death on the organization.Jon also talks about his creative direction and how he beat to his own drum, which ultimately led to some disagreements with management. But, the real shocker is when he shares the results of a survey that showed the Jazz Bear had a 96% approval rating, coming only in 3rd to Donovan Mitchell and Rudy Gobert.It's a really fascinating episode, and Jon's stories about Larry and his experiences as the Jazz Bear are truly inspiring.

- Ep. 89 - Jon Absey speaks about his time as the Original Jazz Bear - Part 1 of 2Today we have a special guest, Jon Absey, the original Jazz Bear for 25 years. We're excited to have him on the show and hear his stories and insights about the Utah Jazz.We started off by asking Jon how he got into being a mascot. He explained that when he started, there were very few mascots and most were animals like bulldogs and horses. Jon stumbled into the role by accident and shut many doors before the opportunity to become the Jazz Bear presented itself. He joked that it was destiny and that he was meant to be a mascot.As we continued our conversation, we wanted to explore who Jon was, who the Jazz were to him, and what the bear brought to him as a person. Jon shared his experiences coaching gymnastics in Fargo and how that led him to become the Jazz Bear. We were amazed by his journey and how he transitioned from being a coach to a mascot.We also discussed the impact of the Jazz on Jon's life and how much the team meant to him. Jon was clearly passionate about the Jazz and his role as the bear. It was inspiring to hear his stories and see how much he loved what he did.Overall, it was an amazing experience to have Jon on the show. We learned so much about the history of the Jazz and the importance of mascots in sports.This is part 1 of 2. Tune in next week to hear about how the breakup between Jon and the Jazz went.Follow us on Twitter hereFollow us on Instagram hereFollow us on Facebook hereWatch us on YouTube hereLearn more about your ad choices.
