Today, we’re sitting down with musician and songwriter Jake Scott to discuss his rise in the music industry and how he managed to stand out among new artists with a unique strategy: releasing one song per month for over three years.
Jake's journey in the LA music scene is distinctive in other ways as well. Born and raised in Arkansas, a place not typically associated with pop artists, Jake's unconventional background, including writing music for other artists, has shaped his unique songwriting style, proficiency, and sound.

If you were tuning into teenage TV in the early 2000s, you probably remember Christy Carlson Romano's familiar face and voice. She seemed to be everywhere, leaving a significant mark on both television and movies.
Christy shares a unique connection with Athletic Brewing: both hail from Connecticut. Specifically, Christy is from Milford, the very town where Athletic Brewing is based.
Today, we're catching up with Christy to hear stories about her childhood in front of the camera, her career afterward, her choice to embrace sobriety, and what it’s like to have an official day dedicated to her in Milford.

As a kid, Victor had no idea that the dance moves his dad and uncle had learned on the streets of Mexico in the ‘80s, called breaking, would eventually take Victor around the world.
Victor’s love of breaking was solidified during his Florida upbringing when he started showing off new moves to his friends and gaining a reputation for his style, taking the sport far beyond what his dad and uncle had shown him.
Since starting the sport at age 9, Victor is now often referred to as the reigning king of breaking in the States. He has won two world championships and will represent the US in Paris this summer.

Before Cameron was a champion on the court in Britain, he was a three-year-old from South Africa who had recently moved to New Zealand, a place not well known for producing tennis stars.
Norrie fell in love with the game over other popular New Zealand sports like rugby and cricket and quickly rose the ranks to become the 10th-ranked junior in the world. Realizing just how good he was, he eventually moved to Great Britain to pursue tennis full-time and even spent his college years in Texas pursuing the sport.
On today’s episode we’re sitting down with Cameron to hear the ins and outs of the life of a pro, how he manages the demands of playing and travel, and some of his best stories from pursuing this game around the world.

Rob grew up playing and loving a variety of sports. However, in high school, he excelled at lifting weights. In fact, his first deadlift was over 500 pounds, and within a few months, he was already competing in strongman competitions.
He quickly rose through the ranks to become one of the premiere strongmen in the county (where? In the world?) and began setting records. With his success in what’s often considered one of the most masculine sports in the world, Rob felt he wasn’t being true to himself and those around him. In 2014 he built up the courage to come out, the first professional strongman to do so. As you’ll hear, this was far from easy for Rob. There was a constant fear about what his parents, friends, fellow competitors, and the world would think of him.
Taking the road less traveled is never easy, especially when you’re the one who has to blaze the trail. Today, we will hear Rob’s story and experience of living without compromise and how the weight we carry is not always made of iron and steel.

Matt considered himself a casual runner, completing one or two half-marathons a year. He was raising a family, advancing his career, and staying healthy. His outlook on life was that it was chugging along, and Matt was content. As far as he was concerned, he “had it all figured out.”
However, as life often does, it threw Matt a tough curveball with what seemed like an unsolvable problem. His balance was off, he was constantly exhausted, his vision was blurry, and so on.
After months of doctor appointments, ER visits, and no answers, Matt was left with a sense of bewilderment about the changes happening to him. After collapsing on a work trip and being rushed to the hospital by his work colleagues, he was finally diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) and told he would be wheelchair-bound within five years.
Today, we’ll hear about Matt’s journey since the diagnosis, how he got back into running, and how he set his goals far beyond what he imagined before this life-altering news. This leads us to what’s next. Starting June 15th, Matt is planning to run from Lincoln, Nebraska, to Casey, Iowa, in an effort to raise awareness and funds for MS Run the US. You can follow along with his journey here.
Be sure to watch Inches to Miles on Tuesday, June 4th, at 8 pm EST here.
Our ambassador applications are open from now until June 7th. Learn more and apply here.

Have you ever had an ice-cold Athletic brew at the finish line of a race, trade show, or music festival? Maybe it was the eye-catching tent, bold branding, or friendly face behind the table that initially got your attention.
You’d probably want to thank Michelle for helping to make that happen. She’s in charge of getting our award-winning non-alcoholic brews all over the country and coordinating the logistics of introducing Athletic brews to millions of people through event sampling each year.
As we gear up for event season, we wanted to give you a peek behind the scenes of some of the folks here at Athletic Brewing. We’ll hear about how Michelle grew up playing soccer, worked on a dude ranch in Colorado, and fell in love with running, making it a large part of her career before Athletic Brewing.
Next time you grab an Athletic brew at the finish line, give a cheers to the folks like Michelle who helped get it there!

You may have noticed that Athletic has a new brew in town: Fancy Like. It was made in collaboration with country singer-songwriter Walker Hayes. Named after his hit song, Fancy Like is a classic American Pale for easy drinkin’ and simple livin’. It’s clean, crisp, and as traditional as they come; what you’d call an all-American brew, crafted for good times with good people - wherever that may be.
Walker joined us on today’s Without Compromise episode to hear the story behind the brew and how his journey to country music stardom began. Through the twists and turns of making his music dreams come true, Walker’s run has been a story of living Without Compromise.
You can order Fancy Like at athleticbrewing.com.

When Nicole finished climbing to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, she knew something had changed about her. Soon after, she left her corporate career in search of a new trail and challenge, one that had never been done before. She found that path at Appalachian Mountain Club, a 150-year-old organization whose purpose is to foster the protection, enjoyment, and understanding of the outdoors…and one that had never had a female leader.
You may know AMC through its world-class recreational network of professionally maintained trails and best-in-class outdoor program centers, lodges, cabins, camps, and campsites. From backcountry campsites to front country lodges to world-famous high mountain huts, AMC has had an undeniable impact on the understanding of and appreciation of the natural world for over a century.
Let’s share a toast to Nicole and all the other trailblazers on International Women’s Day with a Trailblazer brew. It's a liquid legend that follows a crisp peach nose through cairns of citrus and florals, peaking at a whole new elevation of hops. The descent is smooth and at times bitter, a true taste of success on a trail hard-traveled, and our toast to those who’ve traveled it before.

Everyone thought Garrett was crazy to leave his high-rise office job to join a brewery in the attic of a building in 1989. Ever since Garrett had learned about all the craft styles that existed while traveling in Europe, he couldn’t help but think about ways to bring that variety and those styles of beer back to the US.
Fast forward to today and Garrett has been the Brewmaster at Brooklyn Brewing for over 30 years.
Something he couldn’t help but notice in the industry is the lack of diversity. Being one of the only black brewers in the early days has instilled in him the desire to re-diversify brewing through his work with the Michael James Jackson Foundation. They are an organization that funds brewing education scholarships to Black, Indigenous, and People of Color.
Athletic Brewing has been proudly supporting the Michael James Jackson Foundation since 2022 through the sale of Soul Sour, a fierce and fruit-forward sour brew crafted annually in honor of Black History Month. 100% of Soul Sour’s profits will be donated to organizations breaking down barriers in brewing, including Sacred Heart University and the Michael James Jackson Foundation for Brewing and Distilling, which are crafting opportunities for BIPOC brewers through scholarships, education, and career advancement.

Having earned her PhD in molecular biology at Harvard, Kanchan was intrigued when her research lab delved into exploring turmeric's beneficial properties—a spice deeply ingrained in her Indian upbringing, where its benefits were revered and understood through ancient tradition.
This revelation sparked her curiosity about the overlooked and misunderstood facets of spices. As a mother, when she began incorporating traditional spices into her child's meals, she recognized a significant knowledge gap and fear of using spices in children's food by other parents.
Motivated by this realization, Kayan dedicated her career to breaking down the barriers surrounding spices and understanding the benefits they have in our lives.
In today's episode, we delve into Kanchan's unconventional journey, hoping to inspire you to embrace the less-traveled path and add a dash of spice to your holiday menu.

Here at Athletic Brewing, we contribute up to $2 million annually to protect and restore local trails through our Two For The Trails program. Over the last handful of years, this initiative has impacted hundreds of local organizations and thousands of miles of trails. Today we wanted to highlight just one of those stories and the impact the funded project is having on the local community.
Miri Hardy, the executive director of Friends of Myakka River joins us for a rare in-person interview out in the state park where Two For The Trail funds will be used to develop much-needed trail signs to help backcountry travelers safely and confidently explore the park’s backcountry.
Miri’s personal story is also unique in that she had the curiosity and gumption to push herself to understand the complex and beautiful ecosystems deeper into the lesser-known parts of her local trails and her desire to help others do the same.

We first sat down with Jordan Burroughs on Without Compromise back in 2021. Last week, we interviewed him again, but this time, we hit the trail with him and his family. Check out that interview over on our new YouTube show, Take Two.
Watch here: https://athleticbrewing.com/pages/take-two.
In conjunction with the new Take Two episode, we wanted to reshare the 2021 interview we had with Jordan on the podcast. Since the chat, he’s moved across the country, had another child, and won another world championship.
Jordan Burroughs has one of the most medaled and storied careers of any American wrestler. That feat hasn’t come easy, and it hasn’t come without its losses. However, it’s the day-to-day focus that Jordan credits keeping him on top of the competition well into his decade-long wrestling career.
Learn what makes Jordan tick, how he makes the most of his time on and off the mat, and what it means to him to live without compromise.
