🛼 Scott Olson — the inventor behind Rollerblade.

Yep. That Rollerblade.

Scott takes us deep into the origin story of inline skating, how Rollerblade exploded into a worldwide phenomenon, and the insane entrepreneurial ride that followed — including roller hockey road trips, prototype inventions, business lessons learned the hard way, and the kind of creativity you just don’t see every day.

And of course… things take a turn into absolute chaos when we get into:
🏓 Kong Pong (ping pong… but on steroids)
🚴 SkyRide (a human-powered roller coaster concept that ended up on Carnival Cruise Lines!)
🎸 John’s music project “Jomber” (yes, he’s got albums on Spotify)
🦮 plus a surprise guest appearance from Willard the dog

This episode is packed with laughs, innovation, business grit, and the reminder that sometimes the craziest ideas are the ones that change the world.

After a serious four-wheeler accident that nearly changed everything, we take a moment to talk about gratitude, recovery, and what actually matters.
