In this episode of Meandering Musings, Neil Peterson recounts an unexpectedly delightful night at a women’s roller derby bout in Palm Springs that turned nostalgia into admiration. What stood out wasn’t just the speed and toughness of the sport, but its affordability, community spirit, and the passion of athletes skating purely for the love of the game. Neil reflects on how modern roller derby has evolved into a disciplined, strategic, and deeply human sport.
