More smashing results from U.S. women, boring-on-paper but fun-to-watch racing from the Norwegian men's distance team and some interlopers wearing similar colors, and a poorly-attended relay. Devon and Nat break it all down. Keep the feedback and questions coming: [email protected] and [email protected]. We'll see you next week.

Damn. What a weekend for the U.S. Ski Team, with three podiums in three days of racing at the World Cup opener in Finland. Erik Bråten, a Norwegian who coaches the Swiss ski team, joins Devon and Nat to recap and share his experiences across a range of international ski cultures.

We'll be back next week.

A couple of years ago, Swedish Olympic medalist cross-country skier Maja Dahlqvist matched with U.S. sprinter Kevin Bolger on Tinder. They've since become one of their sport's highest-profile couples. The two of them, during an altitude camp in Utah last month, joined Nat for a joint interview.

A few weeks ago, Nat got a Facebook message from one Haakon Klæbo — father of Johannes Klæbo, also known as one of the greatest skiers of all time. What followed was a visit by Nat to Klæbo's training camp in Park City, Utah, where he and Johannes taped this episode of the Devon Kershaw Show. Join us to hear an interview with the five-time Olympic champion from Norway about his time in the U.S., his training and his schism with the Norwegian national team. You can read Nat's first written...

Oh, you thought we were done? Nat had the chance to interview Norwegian cross-country skiing legend Petter Northug Jr. for his story for the New York Times about the Holmenkollen ski marathons. Rather than leave the audio on the cutting room floor, we thought we'd share it with you.  Sorry about the audio quality and the frequent interjections from Nat, but this was not originally intended as podcast-quality material — turn it off if you must. And, full disclosure: if profanity isn't for you,...

This is the end. Of the 2023 racing season. Devon and Nat go without guests and are here to take you through the last three events of the winter in Lahti, Finland. And we cover a couple of retirement announcements from U.S. skiers. We're taking a little break after this but, we promise: We won't leave you hanging for the whole off-season. Stay tuned for more regular episodes over the course of the spring and summer, and we'll be back in a few weeks for a 2023 season recap. Tell us your...

Estonia put on one heck of a show at a city sprint in the nation's capital, Tallinn, this week. We give you a full recap with the help of an on-site expert, Vahur Teppan, and break down some complaints about a new system designed to level the waxing playing field — which may not have worked. We'll be back for one more recap after the Lahti Ski Games in Finland this weekend. Devon is at [email protected] and Nat is at [email protected].

Canada threw down an impressive fifth place finish in Friday's men's 4x10 k relay, finishing just seconds from the medals. We caught up with the team afterwards in the mixed zone — here are our interviews with, in order, Tony Cyr, Graham Ritchie and Olivier Leveille.
