As we straddle right between Veterans Day and Thanksgiving, we decided to highlight both with a unique episode. We’re hearing short stories from a handful of ambassadors about things they are unexpectedly thankful for this year. This is because so many of the guests on Without Compromise have mentioned gratitude as being one of their best daily practices or something that helps them live Without Compromise. 

We’ll also be hearing from our Director of Operations and veteran, Chris Kallam, about our Veterans Day beer, Ready Front, which is still available at AthleticBrewing.com

JT is an Athletic Brewing Ambassador, a dad to 3, a proud veteran, and host of the Consequence of Habit Podcast. He started his career in the United States Air Force and has spent the last 23 years protecting and serving his country as a civilian federal employee. 

After a major crossroad in his life, he began to learn the power of habits, both good and bad. After making the change, he decided to start a podcast to discuss with others how habits can make or break you. Through his podcast, he brings awareness to the impact habits have on our mental health, success and the environment.

After interviewing so many inspiring guests, he also decided to start a nonprofit, also called Consequence of Habit, to help expand this vision of building a life on good habits in a bigger way. 

We are celebrating our veterans once again with Ready Front IPA. This brew for the brave was formulated in collaboration with a team of veterans with 100% of profits going to veteran-focused organizations like Catch A Lift and Team RWB. We are also offering 15% off all products to customers with a military status verified through ID.me, including active duty service members, reserves, veterans, spouses, and families.

You can buy Ready Front and any Athletic Brewing non-alcoholic craft beer at AthleticBrewing.com.

Growing up on the island of Kuai, Malia was introduced to surfing at a very young age by her parents. In fact, they would often take turns watching baby Malia while the other surfed. She was on a board herself not long after. However, Malia’s parents were laid back and never wanted to pursue competitive surfing. 

That was not the case with Malia…

Laird is famous for surfing the biggest waves in the world and is largely considered to be the influence behind a number of surfing innovations. From popularizing stand-up paddle boarding, inventing hydrofoil boarding, and tow-in surfing, Laird is easily cemented on the Mount Rushmore of surfing. Surfer Magazine has labeled Laird as, “the sport’s most complete surfer, displaying almost unnerving expertise in a multitude of disciplines, and flat out surfing’s biggest, boldest, bravest, and the best big wave surfer in the world today, bar none.”

We sat down for a chat with Laird about what living Without Compromise means to him and how he maintains his innovation and zest for trying new things in the water. 

Athletic Brewing has also partnered with Laird in creating Superfood Swell, a collaboration beer with Laird’s Superfood, a refreshing tropical IPA. Big waves of mango collide with swells of pineapple and hints of coconut water to deliver a taste-bending brew that transports you to Hawaii’s shores.
