Jim hosts Australian halfpipe snowboarder Scotty James just before he competes in the 2026 Winter Olympics, alongside discussion of the documentary "Scotty James: Pipe Dreams." Scotty reflects on growing up around motorcycles with his dad, discovering his favorite MotoGP riders, and leaving home at 12 to pursue snowboarding, including the emotional toll and pressure after making his first Olympics at 15. He describes a pivotal post-Sochi reset — rebuilding his team and approach — leading to renewed focus from 2017 onward. Scotty shares advice to his younger self to “pursue one great aim with force and determination,” discusses healthy rivalries, and explains how he visualizes execution over medals.
