Haley Brewster — the breakout star of the 2023-2024 season — hops on the SederSkier Podcast in advance of the World Cup opener in Ruka, Finland.

The 21-year-old won a U.S. senior title, placed silver at the U23 World Championships, competed at the MPLS World Cup and claimed a pair of NCAA silvers at nationals in Steamboat last March.

This year, she's going for it all again.

Stick around to hear about the secret to her successes and who the best Bananagrams player on the U.S. Ski Team is.

Stories I've written about Haley Brewster:

U.S. senior nats

NCAA nationals

U23s

Minneapolis feature story

We discuss Kendall Kramer's NCAA performance as well as highlights from the DI, DII, and DIII meets.

Plus, we provide a World Cup-inspired solution for the Diamond League.

Then, we shift to skiing full-time and reflect on some of our recent shows with Jim Galanes and Matt Whitcomb, discussing development, the state of the U.S. team and Russian participation.

The snow is falling - get out there!

One of our favorite skiers on the World Cup, Hugo Lapalus, makes his first SederSkier Podcast appearance (who knows, maybe there will be more in the future - we can only hope) to chat about the Alpe Cermis, the French team culture and whether or not his coaches are trying to force him to lift with Jouve.

We hope you enjoy this edition of the SederSkier Podcast!

The 2019 WJC 10k champion and sprint bronze medalist at the 2023 world championships could be the next big all-around star of the 2024-2025 season.

We chat with Jules Chappaz about his goals, training, racing the Ski Classics, what has fueled the French rise and more!

The fire is far from going out for the 34-year-old British star...but the four-time Olympian knows the window of opportunity doesn't stay open forever.

With the World Champs coming to his second home this winter, Andrew Musgrave knows it's time to ski fast.

The man, the myth, the legend — the co-host of the world-famous Skirious Problems podcast — James Clugnet joins the Seder-Skier Podcast to discuss the upcoming World Cup season.

The 27-year-old British star has trained more than ever in advance of his seventh season on the top circuit and is poised to hit his first career podium.

Enjoy the show!

It's opening weekend in Beitostolen!

We sat down to chat about the upcoming season with three members of the British national team.

First on the docket: Joe Davies.

The Pemberton, British Columbia product is coming off a year in which he made four World Cup starts, highlighted by a 16th-place finish in the 10k FS in Minneapolis. The 2023 NCAA champion is entering his second year with the University of Utah after spending two seasons at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. This year, the 23-year-old super talent is hoping to climb the ranks in the World Cup, impress at the World Champs, and bring home another NCAA title.

With the 2024-2025 World Cup season set to get underway at the end of the month, we are thrilled to have Matt Whitcomb, the head coach of the U.S. Ski Team, join us for this edition of the Seder-Skier Podcast.

(Definitely worth the double-montage!)

This isn't your average pre-season coach interview, though. While we ask the standard storyline questions, we also threw him a few typical SederSkier curveballs on technique, the development pipeline, thoughts on the Russians and whether or not Klaebo is better than Northug.

Enjoy!

Coming at you on a cold, snowy Wednesday with a bonus pod!

First, we finally pay off the tease of the last two months, running through some misses on the ESPN top-100 athletes since 2000 list AND ESPN's top-25 Olympians of the 21st century list....

Then, we get 3-time Olympian Jim Galanes on the line to discuss a wide-range of development/training-related topics and what American storylines intrigue him the most going into the World Cup season.
