It’s the 200th Episode of The BibRave Podcast featuring… well, everyone! It’s hard to believe it’s been almost 4 years since we kicked off this project. During past anniversaries we’ve discussed our favorite episodes, and this time we pull out specific clips from our favs from the past 200 episodes.
We start at the very beginning by sharing how the podcast began along with background on our musical interludes. We then dive into some of our most inspirational guests and stories - from Dave McGillvray to Bart Yasso. A large part of the podcast has also featured some key episodes debunking common myths from cholesterol, inflammation, intermittent fasting, and more. And the episode ends with some open and honest moments from our guests and from BibRave HQ. Thank you so much for taking this journey with us. 🧡

We bring you a conversation with Tim, Jess, and Andy. To launch Pride Month, the trio takes time to reflect internally as a team on recent events and issues of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion.
To kick things off, Tim, Jess, and Andy talk about the recent protests, and how issues for racial minorities intersect with issues in the LGBTQ+ community. Through an exploration of the history of Pride, they discuss how American legislation has built-in systemic racism and prejudice into our country with some specific examples. Andy and Jessica then share some personal stories of how implicit bias and microaggressions result. The episode is an opportunity to listen, learn, and is a call-to-action for continued education on the history of these issues.

We bring you a conversation with Tim, Jess, and Andy about unexpected life lessons. Running has taught them a lot about life, but so have a couple of other fun life events. We all can learn from many different sources and apply those lessons to running as well.
The trio goes around and shares some unexpected life lessons they’ve pulled from new and interesting places. Tim kicks it off by discussing what Call of Duty has taught him about playing the game he’s in, teamwork, and strategy. Andy shares how his life and career in theatre has taught him how to trust the process and to flex many different muscles in his role. And Jess discusses how getting a tattoo taught her to remove preconceived expectations and labels, stop waiting for the perfect moment, and surround herself with a great support system.

We bring you a special conversation about race, diversity, equity, and inclusion between Tim, Jess, and Ted Metellus from New York Road Runners. You may remember Ted from Episode 74 when he shared background and insight on the quick and amazing work that was done to re-work the course of Rock ‘n’ Roll Las Vegas Marathon in 2017 so the race could take place just a few weeks after the Las Vegas shootings. His knowledge and experience in the industry is unparalleled, and we enjoy diving deeper with him in this conversation.
The conversation starts with a chat about Ted’s experience growing up in the Bronx and then going to college where he became the OBG - Only Black Guy - in the room. We fast forward to how that has translated to his 20 or so years of experience in the running industry often being the OBG and traveling all over the country to host events in different markets. They talk about “signaling” and “tokenism,” and specifically discuss steps the white community can take to affect change.

On this week’s episode of The BibRave Podcast, Tim & Jess talk to Tony Yamanaka, Vice President of Operations for Event Southwest, a boutique event production company. They then chat about the running industry and why runners run. Basically, prepare to nerd out.
Tony graduated from the University of Edinburgh where he wrote a dissertation about “Long-Distance Running Races: The Use of Experiences as Self-Concept Constructs.” The trio dissects what that actually means - specifically why runners run - and his approach to his research. A lot of the discussion centers around this idea of experience, and since we are all in lockdown our concept of experience is changing all the time. They also share some insider tips on how to get into the industry and tales of some international travels.
