320 | Robbe Reddinger, Believe in the Run | Origin Stories

It's the most wonderful time of the year to talk about gift giving, Thomas childhood trauma and Robbe almost getting catfished with fish. There's also some skullduggery in the office fantasy football competition. Plus, we reminisce about our first running shoes, early aughts television, and run down a few different shoes, including the Puma Fast-R Nitro Elite 2, Reebok Floatzig, and Asics GEL-NYC. Merry Christmas to all! Lagoon Pillows is how we get our good sleep and we're happy to have them sponsor the podcast. Right now you can save 15% off your first order with code BELIEVE.

Starting a company managing influencers and runners while trying to be one yourself is quite the juggling act. On this episode, we talk about how Erin juggles both of those things, how deals and contracts work, and how she started running, including her involvement with Green Point Runners, supported by Brooklyn-based Bandit Running.

If if it feels like we're doing a Meg race recap every other month, it's because we are. Her sixth marathon of 2023 was a final Hail Mary at an OTQ, and though it came up short, she finished with a sub-2:37 in our hearts. Get her full recap of the race, which she ran in the Nike Alphafly 3, a shoe that returns the magic that v2 took away.

Thank you for letting us be ourselves. Few people have repped Baltimore better than Daniel Fang, drummer for hardcore band Turnstile (and many others). Even with their massive rise over the past year, including a summer tour with Blink-182 and three Grammy nominations (losing to Brandi Carlile for best rock song is an absolute travesty), he remains the chillest and nicest guy you could hope to meet. It was an honor to have him into the studio to talk about art, inspiration, living a straight edge lifestyle while on tour, and his newfound love of running. Show a bit of TLC.

Fresh off an absolutely bonkers week at The Running Event 2023, Thomas and Robbe recap what's hot and what's not for 2024 in the running shoe world. Meaghan is in California where she ran a certain race in Sacramento in a certain shoe that starts with Alpha ends with Fly 3, which we will talk about all of that on the next episode of The Drop. There's a lot to cover in this episode, and Robbe's concerned that Thomas has never dipped french fries in a Wendy's Frosty. Lagoon Pillows is how we get our good sleep.
