  • Episode 4: Kara Winger

    Welcome to Episode 4 of the Through the Point Podcast, the world's #1 (and only) javelin podcast!

    This episode is an interview with 3x Olympian, 8x National Champ, and US Women's record holder Kara Winger!

    Disclaimer: In the intro I said she threw 66.76, it's actually only 66.67. Sorry Kara haha (:

    We talk about where she is training, her high school/college careers, post-collegiate, Olympics, and much much more! Kara is awesome and I think everyone will enjoy this one!

  • Episode 3: Erick Friedman aka Spearwerx

    Welcome back for episode 3 of the Through The Point Podcast, the world's #1 Javelin podcast.

    This episode I talk with Erick Friedman who is an accomplished collegiate and Master's thrower as well as the found of Spearwerx (an American javelin brand). His story of progress through college and post-collegiate throwing would have made for a great episode on its own. But add in the fact he literally makes javelins and now you have a really interesting episode. Check him out on Instagram @Spearwerx and on his website spearwerx.com.

  • Episode 2: Liam Christensen

    Welcome back to Episode 2 of the Through the Point podcast, the world's #1 Javelin podcast. This week I spoke with Liam Christensen who is a thrower at Stanford University. He holds their school record at 74.78m and was also a multiple-time New Balance Nationals champion in high school. Outside of his success, Liam was also interviewed by NPR in 2016 for his work to get javelin approved as a high school event in South Carolina. He ultimately succeeded and it is now contested within the state. We shared a few laughs over different javelin stories and ultimately had a great discussion of why javelin should be everywhere.

  • Episode 1: Kevin Foster

    We are finally here with episode 1 of the Through The Point Podcast. This interview is with Kevin Foster who is a former Division I thrower for the University of Connecticut. He is now training post-collegiately and runs the page @javelin.anatomy on Instagram. It was a really fun interview where we talk about his career, people getting into the sport, and a handshake with Jan Zelezny. You can follow my page on Instagram @throughthepoint_podcast and let me know what you think!


    Thank you to Matt Nownes aka Galassie for letting me use his song Coast to Coast ft. Pmbata as the theme song. Check it out here on Spotify!

  • Through the Point Podcast Episode 0: Who I am and How the Podcast Came to Be
    Hello everyone, welcome to Episode 0 of the Through the Point Podcast. This is the world’s #1 and only javelin throwing podcast to my knowledge. My name is Scott Fuchs and I’m currently a thrower at Iowa State University. The goal of the podcast is to promote the event in both the United States and around the world. The format is going to be primarily interview based with people involved in the sport. We’re going to limit technical/training talk and focus on how the sport has impacted their life positively. Please share this with anyone who loves javelin or you think could be interested in starting to throw! Song: Coast to Coast by Galassie ft. Pmbata
