TPM Episode 347: Roy Tuscany, The High Fives Foundation


Listen Later

Roy Tuscany is back, and part 2 with Roy is different than any podcast or interview he’s done before. This episode isn’t about Roy’s story of coming back from a life-altering injury and starting the High Fives Foundation; we did that in episode 49. This week, we talk about things like what it’s like being the first person to offer an injured person hope after a transformative injury, how difficult that is, what the cost of a spinal injury is, how one pays for that, and a lot of the things able-bodied people don’t think about. High Fives Athlete Trevor Kennison asks the Inappropriate Questions.

Roy Tuscany Show Notes:

3:00:  Does he wish he wasn’t injured, the pain of life, rude people, and telling his story so much.

13:00:  Making this podcast different, seeing people on their worst days, and explaining what a diagnosis really means to a patient.

20:00:  Rollerblade: They invented inline skating and make the best skates on the planet.

Best Day Brewing:  All of the flavor of your favorite IPA or Kolsch, without the alcohol, the calories and sugar.

Elan Skis:  Over 75 years of innovation that makes you better.

23:00:  Bringing hope, accepting a new reality, who your real friends are, the cost of everything, and the worst of what can happen      

42:00:  Stanley:  Get 30% off site wide with the code winteriscoming

Peter Glenn Ski and Sports:  Over 60 years of getting you out there. 

Outdoor Research:  The best outerwear in the world comes from OR and is built in the PNW

45:00:  Positive mentality, his favorite High Fives athlete story, and once-in-a-lifetime moments.

48:00:  Why he has a nice truck, money, travel budget, being an influencer, and the weather
