Talk Derby To Me

Last week was a wild skate park ride in the dog days of August. But this week Molly's back on leash, and has a great conversation with two junior skaters starting their first year in Adult derby leagues. Evel K from @pard.jr returns to the show, and welcome to Pinkie who is a recent Peterborough transplant from the west coast. They'll both talk about where they came from as Juniors, and what its like navigating the transition to post secondary campuses and skating up in adult leagues. They will also put some serious thought into why Trent is not using Roller Derby as part of their recruitment branding. 🛼🛼 Origionally Broadcast Monday Nov 10, 2025 8:30 EST through the facilities of Trent Radio at 92.7 FM or via Trent Radio on the web.You can find past shows on Acast: https://shows.acast.com/talk-derby-to-me #supportcommunityradio 🎶 @telemole 📻📡 @trentradiocommunity 📸 Evel @darrenstehr 📸 Pinkie Isaac Riebe/ @chocy._.milk

Do YOU know That Guy? If you know, you know! New PARDYer Renegade Rose meets up with Molly this week for a convo about Joy boots, learning to skate in the Toronto skate community, Slam Poetry on skates, and local skate treasure Daniel Lee. And the show will finish with an interview with That Guy himself, Daniel, at the Douro Arena free skate this past August. There's a whole part of the interview that can't be broadcast at the risk of someone being arrested by Interpol, but we're not going to say who, but ... for the right persuasion, we might let you listen off air. 🥸Originally Broadcast Monday Oct 27, 8:30 EST through the facilities of Trent Radio at 92.7 FM or via Trent Radio on the web.#supportcommunityradio 📸 Molly Zack Ward 📸Rosie @renegade_rosie 🎶 @telemole 📻📡 @trentradiocommunity
