Stoked

Weeeeeew, do we have a treat for you this week. Episode 71 is live and it is a real banger.
This week we are joined by two legends of rugby, especially the Heartland Championship. Ralph Darling from North Otago and James Lash out of Buller join us in studio to explain what makes the Heartland Championship so special and why they love this special competition so much.
Both are absolute champions of the provinces and have a passion for rugby which runs so so deep.
We also find out how excited they are play against Manu Samoa this weekend at Eden Park ahead of the Rugby World Cup. Yes the actual Samoan national team. 
We'll fill you in on our trip to fashion week too, fair to say it was eventful. 
Get around James and Ralph, get around us and Stay Stoked!

Boom!
We are back and back with a bloody vengeance.
This week we're taking a deep look in weather, but not the boring type. The type that you can shred!
We catch up with three absolute legends in three beautiful parts of New Zealand to find out how the ski season is tracking and if we finally have the historic snowfall we were crossing our fingers for.
Joining the podcast out of Wanaka is Sam 'Ibex Lee. Then from Canterbury it's Ollie Hunt. And lastly enjoying the mint conditions at Whakapapa it's Bailey Beanbag Dick.
Have a listen and then get out there and find yourself some snow!
Stay stoked.

Yeeeeow,
Stoked episode 66 is live and we are shot, mentally, emotionally and physically after watching one of the greatest games of ODI cricket the world has ever seen.
Kane Williamson and his troops executed nothing short of a miracle when they dispatched India in the Cricket World Cup semi final to again advance to the big dance.
It was a game that affected many Kiwis around the country so we thought we'd do a deep dive into what made it so damn special. 
Have a listen, stay stoked, and back those bloody Blackcaps.

Hi all, this week we have not held back - we have gone straight to the top, assisted by Mt Ruapehu's brand new gondola!
We chat with Whakapapa Ski Field operations manager Steve Manunui about the process of getting their Sky Waka up and running and also how they go about making snow when the weather doesn't play ball.
We also fire off some takes about the Blackcaps World Cup fizzer and the Super Rugby final featuring of course, the Crusaders. 
All this plus much much more. Stay Stoked!

Yeah, we know - massive call with the headline, but hey, we're jazzed!
Or more specifically, Mitch is jazzed - in today's episode anyway.
Yep, that's right - no Louis. Stoked Podcast, the Mitch edition.
A couple of disclaimers, he produced this himself so it could be a little dusty, and/or rough around the edges (pressed all the buttons himself even! Plus, all of today's content is hypothetical and speculative as nothing has been confirmed or locked in.
Alas, we will rip right into it with a heaving panel, members including former co-host Alex Chapman, the man who broke this fabulous news, and Christopher Reive, longtime champion of New Zealand professional surfing and Herald Journalist.
So finally, that news, what exactly is it? Well, it comes in the form of a potential World Surf League Qualifying Series event of the highest order, a 10,000 point ranked event, a competition sure to draw some of the biggest names in the sport to our shores.
Potential location: Piha.
Let's dive in.
