We’ve got cross-country ski royalty in the house. Legendary Dario Cologna, who’s not just a four-time Tour de Ski winner but also a quadruple Olympic gold medalist and one of the biggest names Switzerland has ever produced. We chat with Dario about everything: how he went from a small mountain village to the top of the podium, his insane comeback from injury right before the Olympics, and a few wild stories about broken skis and race-day crashes. You’ll also hear Dario’s honest take on how the sport has changed (including his thoughts on that controversial 5k mass start!), what it’s like being a superstar in Switzerland, and what he’s been up to since retiring—including running a marathon in a crazy fast time. 🎧 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.

An absolute legend joining us today. If you were watching World Cup Cross-Country Skiing in the 2000s, you definitely remember Tobias Angerer—multiple World Cup wins, Olympic and World Champs podiums, and a key part of Germany’s famous relay "dream team." Oh, and did we mention he was the very first Tour de Ski winner? The man literally polishes his trophy at home every day. This episode is full of good stories and real talk as the guys look back at the early days of the Tour de Ski and what it was like racing on the cutting edge of a new event. Tobias shares what made the German team so strong, why celebrating a win matters, and gives some honest thoughts on the current state of the sport—plus, you’ll hear about his side gig as a DJ (seriously), the best afterparties, and who he’d pick for his dream golf foursome. 🎧 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.
