Welcome to the Gnar Couch Podshow, where mountain biking meets questionable life choices and creative chaos, and somehow, women still agree to come on the show. If you’re after a polished podcast, you’re in the wrong place. This is a podshow, which basically means we’re like a podcast, but with more bad decisions and a few conversations you probably shouldn’t play at work (or around your mom). Picture the world’s sketchiest couch, then imagine us inviting up-and-coming freeride star Janelle Soukup to sit on it. That’s our version of hospitality. (And that's probably why she called in.)
On this episode, we’re serving up a three-course meal of send: first, we celebrate the rise of women’s freeride, featuring Janelle’s stacked resume and her invite to the 2025 Rampage lineup. Next, we try to get deep (for about three seconds) on the mental gymnastics it takes to launch yourself off a sheer cliff, sprinkling in advice that could either inspire your dreams or or kill you. Finally, we wrap things up with our signature back-end chaos: a mix of questionable humor and reminders that we are all very bad at adulting.
