Show Notes
When it comes to the ice, Conor McDermott-Mostowy is fast – like, really fast!
A national speed-skating champion and a member of US Speedskating who has won medals across the world, the American knows all about what it takes to compete at the top-level – and how to do it while balancing his sport with a university degree.
Conor came out publicly in 2021 – and now he’s here with us on the podcast to talk more about his sporting career and his journey with his sexuality.
We talk about all sorts of things in this episode – including some of his most memorable moments from the past season, how it feels when everything is just clicking on the ice, representing Team USA, coming out, looking up to Gus Kenworthy and others – and loads, loads more.
Conor may be one of the most laid-back guys we’ve ever had on the podcast - and we love this chat, and think you will as well!
