How do you define success? A lot of people consider the attainment of wealth, favor, or eminence the default definition. But what if there are other goals and motivations? How do we define and measure success in other ways? This episode dives into this subject and I discuss learning tricks, school, athletics, work, starting a business, social media, and hobbies.

Myles "Bubba" Roach, 11 years old, was killed on 10/30/2021 at the hands of a school bully. Since this horrific event, his parents, Jordan and Katelyn Roach, have been working on a jam in his memory and working on setting up a non-profit to "put all brakes on bullying". This episode is a small glimpse into what happened, how the family is coping with the loss, and how they are using it as motivation to help curb bullying for others and promote BMX and other action sports as a means of averting bullying within their community. They've still got a long ways to go in the fight for justice, gettin ..read more

A lot of you have been wondering where we are, what we're doing, and probably if we are still here. The answers to some of that are in this episode, with at least another, maybe a third episode to follow bringing everyone up to speed on GrindWorks and myself (AV). This episode was recorded over a year ago on a drive from NY to PA (excuse the poor audio quality) while I was moving my family back to NY. This was all quiet beforehand and announced on this podcast; problem was, I never posted it until now. Listen in, catch up, and send me any questions you have so I can address them on the next ep ..read more

A lot of you may know the name Trashfish from Instagram more than you know the name Eddie Olschansky these days, as he spends more time fishing trash out of the river from his kayak than he does on his bike; If you're wondering why that is, then listen in!
