    Moa Ilar: What do you really think about the Tour de Ski?

    2025-12-27 | 50 mins.

    In today’s episode, Jimmy, who is joined by Andrew Musgrave (get well soon Mika!), sits down with Swedish cross-country skiing sensation Moa Ilar for an inside look at her journey through the sport and the upcoming Tour de Ski.You’ll hear Moa Ilar share everything from growing up in a tiny village that’s obsessed with swimming, to what it’s like chasing podiums (and sometimes bagging a win out of nowhere). She spills on training after foot surgery, why fighting for a spot in the Swedish women’s team is both awesome and stressful, and gives her honest opinions about this year’s Tour de Ski changes.There’s a bunch of good stories in this one: wild relay team drama, crazy Olympic quotas, and the infamous moment Moa Ilar got disqualified for helping a teammate—and got some pretty wild messages online. Plus, you’ll hear who she’d dream of training with (spoiler: it’s wholesome), and everyone shares a laugh about rumors and weird race formats.🎧 SUBSCRIBE TO “SKIRIOUS PROBLEMS” ON: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1nVdyNDukQ7Ucv7IdfXzpg Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/no/podcast/skirious-problems/id1718097138 RSS-Feed: https://anchor.fm/s/ed0abed0/podcast/rss YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SkiriousProblems🤳🏼 FOLLOW US: Skirious Problems: https://www.instagram.com/skirious_problems Mika Vermeulen: https://www.instagram.com/mikaa_ver James Clugnet: https://www.instagram.com/jimmycluggz Skirious Problems is partially supported by FIS and produced in cooperation with Maniac Studios.

    Janik Riebli: Swiss farming meets ski racing

    2025-12-11 | 39 mins.

    In this episode, Mika and Jimmy are chilling in Davos with Swiss skier Janik Riebli, and things get real—real quick. First off, they’re fighting classic podcast tech issues (yep, Swiss hotel Wi-Fi isn’t as fancy as you’d think), but nothing's stopping the crew from diving into some solid ski talk.Janik Riebli spills on his “double life” as both a World Cup skier and a hands-on farmer. From 4:30am cow milking sessions in the Swiss mountains to squeezing in two-a-day training blocks, he talks about how farm life actually keeps him sane during the grind of the race season. The guys also go all-in on some hot topics: whether every nation truly belongs at a World Cup, the politics of letting Russians back into races, and why even pro athletes get nervous before a big weekend.If you’re here for some behind-the-scenes stories, laughs, light-hearted trash talk, and a peek at Janik Riebli's favorite cow (RIP, Alice)—this one’s for you. Grab a glass of freshly milked milk and settle in—the Skirious Problems crew’s got plenty to say.🎧 SUBSCRIBE TO “SKIRIOUS PROBLEMS” ON: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1nVdyNDukQ7Ucv7IdfXzpg Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/no/podcast/skirious-problems/id1718097138 RSS-Feed: https://anchor.fm/s/ed0abed0/podcast/rss YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@SkiriousProblems 🤳🏼 FOLLOW US: Skirious Problems: https://www.instagram.com/skirious_problems Mika Vermeulen: https://www.instagram.com/mikaa_ver James Clugnet: https://www.instagram.com/jimmycluggz Skirious Problems is partially supported by FIS and produced in cooperation with Maniac Studios.

About Skirious problems

Skirious Problems is your backstage pass to the brilliantly unpolished world of elite cross-country skiing. Hosted by World Cup racers Mika Vermeulen and James Clugnet, the show delivers a sharp mix of insider insight, chaotic travel tales, training drama, and the kind of brutally honest banter you only get from athletes who spend far too much time together on the road. The hosts aren’t afraid to voice strong opinions, roast each other, or poke fun at the quirks of their sport — all with a wink and a sense of humility. What truly elevates the show, though, is the lineup of prominent guests who drop in: World Cup winners, rising stars, Olympic medalists, wax technicians with cult followings, and the occasional wild-card personality from outside skiing. Their stories bring depth, humor, and a fresh range of perspectives, whether they’re unpacking tense race moments, revealing team secrets, or debating the future of the sport. With its mix of authenticity, sharp humor, and unfiltered athlete conversations, Skirious Problems offers a uniquely entertaining look at skiing life beyond the finish line — perfect for fans, athletes, and anyone who enjoys a good dose of organized chaos.
