Zac Pearson joins the podcast, and we are able to explore his timeline that is full of passion for the game. While he navigated his professional career within the game, with a number of seasons playing pro in a few different leagues, he realized he would inevitably fall into coaching at some point. That Realization came to fruition, and he was owner, GM, and head coach for a number of teams in the JR hockey ranks, most notably the Decatur Blaze for over a decade. Zac continues to pursue his love of the game, and spreads it globally with European tours he hosts for kids, with some exhibition games mixed in. Recently he has begun a challenging fight to rid his body of cancer. Find out more on the Never Far from Home website as to how you can help him in his battle!

She is currently coaching the Hungarian women's team, as of this release date, and is set to push for the Olympics with them in 2030.

Garner Christensen joins the show a couple episodes after his mother was on. We dive into some storytelling about a young man who loves the game of hockey. He was involved from a young age, and ended up as a goalie. We spoke to decision making, and the challenge he faced stepping away from the game as a teenager to pursue a track for college baseball. He found his success, and has since returned to Washington after his collegiate career. Enjoy the tales from a second Christensen!!
