Roll On: The Art Of Memoir

Roll On: The Art Of Memoir

Welcome to another edition of ‘Roll On’, wherein Rich Roll and journalist & author Adam Skolnick riff on matters of interest across sports, culture, entertainment, and self-betterment. Today we dissect top headlines from the world of endurance, celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Rich’s book Finding Ultra, and talk about what makes an impactful memoir. NOTE: This episode was recorded one day PRIOR to the Uvalde school shooting, so this topic is not discussed. Specific topics discussed in today’s episode include: the murder of star gravel cyclist Moriah ‘Mo’ Wilson ; the upcoming sub-7-hour Ironman triathlon project; advice from 90-year-old runners; pop star Cody Simpson making the Aussie World Championship Swimming Team; and what Rich learned about writing, publishing, life, and success on the 10th anniversary of Finding Ultra. Today’s episode is also viewable on YouTube: https://bit.ly/rollon682 Peace + Plants, Rich
