Solo Cast 2: GrindWorks Podcast 043

This episode is a quick cut-in that has developed over the last couple days as I responded to the first Solo Cast, episode 039. In it, I discuss the overstretching of the GrindWorks branding again, Instajams status update, 2020 Jams announcement, and a couple other housekeeping items.

You’ll find the current jam flyers, some links mentioned within the podcast, as well as links to check out the podcast on various other platforms as fits your lifestyle after the jump!

Keystone RampWorks with Jeff and Mikki: Grindworks Podcast 042

This episode is with Jeff and Mikki of Keystone RampWorks (KSRW) and is the final installment of the now dubbed “Skateparks and Coronavirus” series.

The Wheel Mill with Harry Geyer: GrindWorks Podcast 038

I’m really happy to finally have this episode recorded because Harry and I had this discussion a couple months ago, made basic arrangement to have the discussion via podcast, and then Coronavirus happened and put everyone on Stay-At-Home orders and closed The Wheel Mill for an undetermined amount of time, starting at 15 days, extending to 30, and now at 2 months long, there’s no end in sight for a re-opening.

There’s some more info after the jump to help fill the back-story that is alluded to at the beginning of this episode and will give you some additional context. There’s also some links to the fundraisers, so click to… Continue reading “The Wheel Mill with Harry Geyer: GrindWorks Podcast 038”

Week 0: Quarantine Barspins – GrindWorks Instajams

The first GrindWorks InstaJam event is Quarantine Barspins. As explained in the InstaJams Announcement Podcast, this is a pretty loose jam event. Do a barspin in your home, apartment, garage, etc… Let’s keep it to the “Stay-at-Home” theme for this one, as it’s Week 0, and at least here in SouthWestern PA, we are still under a stay at home order. Entries are due by 05/16/2020.

Check out the announcement post on Instagram for some examples of a quarantine barspin, but have fun and make it your own!

InstaJams Announcement: GrindWorks Podcast 037

Jams and contests seem to be a question on everyone’s minds right now as we begin to re-emerge from nation-wide stay-at-home orders and quarantines, while restrictions on gatherings remain in place. We have been trying to come up with an alternative for the last month or so and decided on a set of weekly InstaJams. Listen in for more details and check out the @grindworks_bmx Instagram for the flyers and more details as each event goes live!

There’s lots of good content after the jump and also some links to check out the podcast on various other platforms as fits your lifestyle! Continue reading “InstaJams Announcement: GrindWorks Podcast 037”

James Weston: GrindWorks Podcast 036

James is originally from the Owego, New York area and many of you will know him from the Binghamton scene; he now lives in Austin, Texas. I caught up with him when I was visiting in January, but couldn’t make a podcast happen in-person, so we did it via Skype while we’re all still quarantined. This was very Binghamton-scene oriented and came out with a few good ideas for future episodes as well.

There’s lots of good content after the jump and also some links to check out the podcast on various other platforms as fits your lifestyle, as referenced above!
