You might chalk this one up to a wild experiment gone wrong. Our house mates Hannah Bergemann, Talus Turk, Blake Hansen, Evan Bradley, Ryan McNulty, Hayden Zablotny, Kaia Jensen, and Lucy Van Eesteren decided it would be fun to toss the mic's up one night while in Guadalajara, Mexico for Freeride Fiesta but what ensued was wildly random, somewhat chaotic, but entertaining none the less. We'll go back to the drawing board and give this format another shot one day. In the mean time give this short episode a listen and enjoy a laugh or two.   Follow Hannah Bergemann here | https://www.instagram.com/hannahbergemann/ Follow Blake Hansen here | https://www.instagram.com/handsblakesen/ Follow Talus Turk here | https://www.instagram.com/talusturk/ Follow Evan Bradley here | https://www.instagram.com/_evan_bradley_/ Follow Lucy Van Eesteren here | https://www.instagram.com/lucy.vaneesteren/ Follow Kaia Jensen here | https://www.instagram.com/kaia.jensen/ Follow Hayden Zablotny here | https://www.instagram.com/haydenzablotny_/ Follow Ryan McNulty here | https://www.instagram.com/ryan.mcnulty/  Check out Tenet's Product assortment here | https://www.ridetenet.com
