About this episode
Trevor Kennison is one of the most remarkable athletes in the world, and like Travis Rice, Candide Thovex, Courtney Dauwalter, and Alex Honnold, he forces us to see things differently and rethink what’s possible. Josh Berman and his team at Level 1 Productions have created a film, Full Circle , that premieres this week in New York, and that documents Trevor’s incredible story and exploits, and the challenges — and opportunities — of life after spinal cord injury. ALSO: Trevor and Josh are going to be coming to Western Colorado University on Wednesday, November 1st, for a Blister Speaker Series, so if you’d like to come meet Trevor and Josh and hear us dive into a number of topics that we don’t touch on in this conversation, well come join us on Wednesday, November 1st, at 7pm at Western Colorado University in Gunnison, CO.
