We don’t get a lot of double threats on the show, so when we do you’d better pay attention. Katie Kennedy is a multifaceted individual who is balancing more plates than we can count. She’s a professional snowboarder, a media juggernaut at Slush the Magazine, a sledding connoisseur, and loves a good party. Her spelling might not be the best, but her attitude and outlook on life makes up for it. All this and more on this week’s episode of The Bomb Hole!
