It’s the best pod out there for skiers. AK brings it every episode. A pod like no other ski pod

Look whether you’re a skier, snowboarder, or even a sled head. There’s something here for you to enjoy. Like you don’t need a huge truck Outback to get up the hill a mini van is perfect. Definitely check it out.

Great way to connect to the sport/industry/community in a real-people kind of way with a lot of variety.

Great pod! Especially if you’re obsessed with skiing like me

AK keeps it real. He lets people say whatever they want whenever they want. Keeps the snow business people connected and provides a platform to share the love and the grief. Well played always.

I love to ski and I am a Kaufman. SKIING IS THE BEST!!
Kaylin Kaufman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/23/20
If you're just finding this podcast, go back and listen to previous episodes. I highly recommend the short Quickpods as the Covid-19 situation was evolving in March 2020. Listened to them again over Thanksgiving and its crazy how much of what is discussed still applies because not enough...Read full review »

Solid listen: good guests, and real ski talk - about issues skiers care about. AK is keeping some semblance of objectivity / reality for the 20/21 season - much needed and appreciated.

This pod is great for a different flavor of ski/snowboard/general snow podcast. Good insight/perspective from a person who worked in the snow sports industry. Highly entertaining, keep it up!

Great to hear the pod again, always brings the stoke! Love the notion of Bluebird, anyone doing something similar back East?
CM3392 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/28/20
Absolutely love this show. Especially like the insights on the industry, local recommendations, and ski bum commentary. Alex, please do a show on the resorts that are open (June). I skied A-Basin May 31st, 2020 and the vibes were euphoric. I won the lottery two days in a row, but I had to fly...Read full review »

Wintry Mix provides an outlet for his balanced perspectives on the ski industry as well as a broad variety of others to share the current state of the mountain tourism industry and also a guess as to where it’s going. Alex doesn’t pull punches and is very open in calling it as he sees it so if...Read full review »

Good for ski industry news. If you like far left politics and skiing, this is for you.
bsatherton via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/04/20
Really informative, knowledgeable guy, great guests
Porca1 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/08/20
Started listening to AK and the Wintry Mix about a year ago and it’s consistently informative and entertaining. Particularly appreciate the recent episodes in the rapidly evolving COVID-19 topic and it’s impact on the ski industry and ski town and most importantly the stories of the people in...Read full review »

Every episode is a must listen. It’s tough to find someone who can make talking about fun, fun but The Wintry Mist cast is always interesting and a breezy listen. Check it out!
Franklin Ave Posse '93 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/20
AK is a legend in my books. Although I’m a little jealous that he’s now moved to Colorado, he continues to add content regarding the east coast which is simply awesome. AK’s roots have exposed him to knowledgeable characters in the ski industry. Give him a listen and you will not be disappointed....Read full review »

If you ski and listen to podcasts look no further. AK is a great host who has kept the pod fun and ever evolving throughout several format changes. As an east coaster the archives are great for local tales and the new colorado focus is still super interesting and informative as someone who makes...Read full review »

5 stars 5 eeeee’s and for the beer in the wild - I’ll meet you at the Columbine Bar. Love the show - new listener and cant get enough of the i70 Corridor New New New News! 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
The Hydle Network via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/20
Thanks for all your work for the entertainment of snow-obsessed riders. Latest pod allows you to flex your investigative journalist bent (along with the Marquette bc episode). More of this? Lukas, Hillsdale ny
Tennesseeschwartz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/20
Great guy, great guests, great content, great voice. Its all you need in a podcast, just listen already.
aventree via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/04/20
Love AK's take on interviews, he's always throwing great questions at his guests, and he's not afraid to shake up the format so you never know what you're in for. Great take on snowsports industry- AK gets legit guests from all walks. Am I slightly jealous that he moved to CO and...Read full review »

Been listening for years, Kaufman always has an interesting angle to discuss — from East to West we all come back wanting more. Keep at it bud!
0dysseus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/24/20
Great for a listen on the way to the slopes. Hope I am lucky enough to one day get a beer in the wild!
ocram191919 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/11/20
Love the pod. It’s always entertaining. What it does right? Everything. What it does wrong, not much. If you are jonesin for mountain life but can’t be a dedicated mountain lifer, K gets you the fun in a great format that just works. Great production and sound also keeps the stoke factor...Read full review »

Highly recommended!
ShiaLaBeoufReal via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/23/19
Great podcast. Alex always has interesting guests to speak to and gets great details from the ski area employees on the ground. And, I feel like I always learn something from the pod that makes me a better human or, at least, a more appreciative skier.
mp723 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/15/19
You always did a nice job in Vermont and we will miss you in Waterbury Center. Sorry I never got to meet you. Good luck in Colorado and terrific job on the podcast with Marquette Backcountry Skis. I believe you were instrumental in getting backcountry.com to back off their stupid lawsuits. Keep...Read full review »

Loved the episode interviewing The owner of Marquette Skis about the backcountry.com scandal. Very relaxed podcast about interesting outdoor related topics.
Nursetriathlete via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/05/19
Every skier and boarder needs to listen in. Feels like a conversation with friends over beers. This is the podcast that has kept me alive this last month waiting for the lifts to open. Please keep this podcast going AK! Started off with your Schweitzer episode and have since worked my way back...Read full review »

Looking forward to the next chapter of Wintry Mix. AK goes above and beyond with the variety of guests on his podcast. The theme song is strong too.
CodyOutside via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/26/19
keeps me going through the summer listening to all the snow/ski talk! Don’t live in VT but enjoy hearing the small town/ ski town tales. Production quality and Alex’s interviewing style make for very easy listening. Very much glad i came across the ‘cast.
Longtimewebreader via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/17/19
Let’s face it, while AK won’t see much wintry mix with all the powder in Colorado, this podcast, like him, is born from ice and tough as nails. It’s the best audio ski content on the web. I’ve been listening since the start but just getting around to this now, and stickers are cheaper than beer...Read full review »

Right down the rode at K; been listening since the beginning, by far my favorite pod. Love listening on my frequent early morning commutes to the NEK to shred some fresh! Keep up the great work Alex!
vtsplitter via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/12/19
I started out on the latest Pods and now I am working backwards to the earliest. Thank you Alex for sticking with it. The new Pods make me wish I was living back in Richmond just down 2 from you. Cheers to you and your family!
Nothing Personal I Said via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/19
Longtime listener. This one’s different than the other ski pods. Less celebrities but more real world substance, or something like that. Pretty sure he edits the most so there’s less tangents and useless chatter. It’s VT based but extends out a good bit.
rainandsnow via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/26/19
You won’t find any other podcast like this, great variety of topics and always close to home (VT) thanks for putting out great content!
DEEPH⊕⊕D via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/19
Awesome new format and helps my Boston commute go a little quicker. Listening to the stories brings me back to my liftie days at Stowe. Love Vermont skiing and the communities that support it. Keep up the great work!
One of those weekend warriors via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/19
I’m one of those pesky flatlanders that now lives close to the VT 100 corridor. As a skier who is now raising little skiers, this podcast is a fantastic intro to the area for us. Alex is a great, down to earth host and really imparts the VT vibe to his podcasts. Always looking forward to the next...Read full review »

I’ve been working at Vermont ski areas for 5 years now and have seen and heard about the podcast on and off the last few years. When I heard you made an episode with Will Romeo I figured, “What the hell,” and loaded up the episode as I set out to groom my second shift Lincoln Peak trails. Well, I...Read full review »

Great old and new stories of east coast skiing and all that happens around the mountain. Lots of interesting topics like snowmaking, gear, and backcountry are talked about. This guy is doing a lot for us east coasters who don’t live up north but still try to live the ski life.
will ski for food via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/19
Awesome podcast for all things New England skiing and beyond! This is honestly the only podcast I listen to. Do yourself a favor and listen up for the goods ❄️🤙🏼
Kkeeney24 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/19
Alex can make anything interesting. Great interviewer. We need more East Coast content!
Tom Baski via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/16/19
Alex delivers amazing Vermont focused content. His interview style and guests easily make this one of my favorite podcasts.
