In this episode, Mika and Jimmy are chilling in Davos with Swiss skier Janik Riebli, and things get real—real quick. First off, they’re fighting classic podcast tech issues (yep, Swiss hotel Wi-Fi isn’t as fancy as you’d think), but nothing's stopping the crew from diving into some solid ski talk.
Janik Riebli spills on his “double life” as both a World Cup skier and a hands-on farmer. From 4:30am cow milking sessions in the Swiss mountains to squeezing in two-a-day training blocks, he talks about how farm life actually keeps him sane during the grind of the race season. The guys also go all-in on some hot topics: whether every nation truly belongs at a World Cup, the politics of letting Russians back into races, and why even pro athletes get nervous before a big weekend.
If you’re here for some behind-the-scenes stories, laughs, light-hearted trash talk, and a peek at Janik Riebli's favorite cow (RIP, Alice)—this one’s for you. Grab a glass of freshly milked milk and settle in—the Skirious Problems crew’s got plenty to say.
