<p>You know I like a good ski story. Today's guest has one of the best. </p><p>Jake Brown never made it to junior nationals and assumed he wouldn't pursue sports in college. Instead, he wound up being a DI, DII and DIII athlete, leading St. Olaf to a national title in cross-country and emerging as an All-American as a super-senior at Northern Michigan.

Brown represented Team USA at 5 world championships and an Olympics. He retired after this season, but stumbled upon the Seder-Skier Podcast before it started.</p>
