Although Emily is one of the youngest guests in more than 120 episodes at just 18 years old, she has already become recognized by skaters all over the country for her positively infectious enthusiasm. No matter the rink, no matter the crowd, if you happen to skate the same session as Emily, you won't be able to miss her. Her energy, genuine love for people, and passion for roller skating have made her a familiar face wherever she goes.

In this episode, I'm joined by Emily Brown to talk about her journey into skating, becoming part of the UNIQ Skate family, and how the roller skating community has impacted her life. We discuss what it's like to travel, build friendships across the country, and why maintaining a positive attitude has opened so many doors along the way.

As always, we don't stay in one lane for long. We dive into skating, personal growth, memorable sessions, life experiences, and plenty of unexpected conversations that make these long format episodes what they are.

Whether you're just discovering roller skating or you've been skating for decades, Emily's outlook is a reminder that enthusiasm is contagious, kindness matters, and you don't have to be the oldest or the most experienced person in the room to leave a lasting impression.

If you enjoy authentic conversations with passionate people who genuinely love the skating community, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

On Episode 121 of the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast, I had the opportunity to sit down with Ebony, better known throughout the skating community as Coach E, founder of Step & Skate.

Coach E shares her skating journey, how she found her passion for teaching, and what inspired her to create Step & Skate. Since launching the movement in 2022, she has helped countless skaters build confidence, improve their skills, and find their place within the skating community.

We talk about the importance of quality skate instruction, the challenges and rewards of building a brand in the skating world, and how skating continues to impact lives both on and off the floor. Coach E also shares stories from her travels, her experiences teaching across the country, and her vision for the future of Step & Skate.

This was a great conversation about growth, leadership, community, and the power of roller skating to bring people together. Whether you're just getting started or you've been rolling for years, there's something in this episode for everyone.

On this episode of the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast, I’m joined by Tim Arnold for a conversation that goes far beyond skating.

March 15, 2026 would become a date that changed everything for Tim and his partner Megan. While traveling home from one of the biggest shuffle skating events in the country, the two were involved in a devastating car accident that left Megan with catastrophic injuries.

What happened next says everything about the skating community.

Tim explains that he has only been seriously skating for about five years, but in the middle of one of the hardest moments of their lives, none of that mattered. Support immediately began pouring in from skaters and supporters around the world. Messages, encouragement, prayers, and even real financial help came from people who understood how overwhelming the toll of something like this can become. The skate community showed up for Tim and Megan in a way they never could have imagined.

Despite everything they continue to face, their spirits remain unbelievably strong. Tim wanted to make sure everyone who reached out knows just how grateful they truly are as Megan continues her healing journey.

This is a powerful episode about resilience, perspective, community, and the people who show up when life changes in an instant.

This month on the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast Topic Show, I’m joined by co-host Liz Brown of Rink Rat Chat and special guest Brad Armstrong, owner of multiple roller skating rinks across the United States including Roller Kingdom in Reno, Nevada, The Rink in Sacramento, California, Top Gun Skate Center in Fallon, Nevada, and Cortland Roller Rink in Cortland, Ohio.

In this episode, we sit down and talk about what actually makes a roller rink successful. Brad gives real insight from the owner’s perspective about why some rinks thrive while others struggle to survive. We talk about the biggest mistakes rink owners make, how skating culture has changed over the years, what skaters expect from a modern rink experience, and what it really takes behind the scenes to keep a rink operating successfully.

This conversation goes far beyond just business. We talk about community, music, culture, leadership, consistency, and the responsibility that rink owners have in helping keep roller skating alive for future generations.

If you’ve ever wondered why some rinks become legendary while others disappear, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

This bonus episode of the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast was recorded live on location at the legendary Cortland Roller Rink during Spring Bling 2026. From skating legends who helped shape the culture, to the regulars who keep these sessions alive every week, to the next generation already carving out their own lane, this episode is all about the people who make roller skating what it is.

Throughout the night I grabbed conversations with skaters from every era and every style to talk about what keeps them rolling, how the culture continues to evolve, and why events like Spring Bling still matter. Different perspectives, different stories, but the same love for skating that connects everybody in the building.

This is the kind of episode that captures the energy you can only get inside a packed rink during a major event. The music, the stories, the history, the laughs, the generations all sharing the same floor together. Real conversations with real skaters exactly where skaters live.

Episode 116 of the SK8LIKEYOU Podcast features a content creator in the skating world that is probably making frequent appearances in your social media feeds lately… Greggo (instagram.com/thatsgregg0)

This was actually Greggo’s very first official podcast appearance and from the second we started talking, I knew this conversation was going somewhere completely different than I expected.

What started as a discussion about skating and content creation quickly turned into one of the deepest conversations I’ve had yet about internet culture, trolling, cancel culture, comedy, social media psychology and what it really means to create content in today’s world. Greggo opens up about how his page evolved from simply posting skate clips into becoming a full blown content platform, how he connected with creators like Ant Banks and why so many people completely misunderstand the difference between trolling and actual malicious intent.

We also get into the role comedy plays in exposing uncomfortable truths and talk about everything from Howard Stern and Druski to Shane Gillis, Kevin Hart roasts and how internet outrage has completely changed the way people interact online. A lot of this conversation honestly felt bigger than skating itself because so much of what we discussed applies to culture as a whole right now.

Of course, we also dug deep into skating. Greggo talks about growing up skating Sundays at Roller Dome in Virginia with his mom, the moment his entire perspective changed after discovering real skate culture at Greenbriar, and how traveling to national events made him realize just how massive and connected the skating world really is. We also had a really honest conversation about regional styles, shuffle skating, East Coast skating influence and the deep history of roller skating in America including discussing a period in U.S. history where legally enforced segregation at roller rinks across the country was a very real thing. We talked about how those realities shaped rink culture, regional identities and skating communities in ways many people still do not fully realize today.

This episode honestly turned into one of the most thought provoking conversations I’ve had on the podcast in a long time and I think a lot of people are going to take something from it whether they agree with everything said or not.
