There’s a special kind of honesty that happens when you’re riding a lift next to someone you just met, with inches between you and a few minutes to kill.
Earlier this winter, we lapped the lifts and pulled up a chair to share with our guests, inviting them into a little mid-mountain interrogation. Questions teetered from slightly grounded to ones that stretched minds toward an abstract realm of ambiguity.
Our new chairlift interview series, The Hot Seat, brings that candor front and center with unscripted moments, questions you couldn’t prepare for, and just enough "airtime" to get good conversation off the ground.
Those brave enough to take the ride walked away with more than just a story. We handed out lift tickets, waterpark passes, coffee, spa treatments, and even lodging. All they had to do was survive the questions.
As we roll these episodes out over the next couple of weeks, we’re already thawing out another mind-melting wave of new questions to freeze you with.
