Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/episode/13g4CwziJC96RNpVWAfpDu


Welcome to In the Arena, I’m your host Bobby Carroll. The reason I started this podcast is quite simple… success. There are many varying degrees and I am out to find what it means to the world's most driven and successful people. I was a competitive mogul skier for more than a decade and was on the podium more than a 100 times.  I was top 5 in the US and one of the best mogul skiers in the world. After I finished my competitive career as an athlete I turned to coaching and have coached Junior, National and World Champions.  Luckily for me, through my career I have met many successful and driven people in my life. Olympic Gold medalists, Olympians, World Champions, Billionaires, NFL Players, Professional Athletes,  Musicians, Sports Psychologists, Entrepreneurs and Executives. All who have seen success at incredible heights.  On this podcast you will get to meet them and hear not only their story but what they believe success is, what drives them to achieve and maintain success each and everyday.  You will get to explore, understand, and identify their practices, and attitudes toward life, how they adapt to the success they achieve and also the failures they have had reaching or falling short of their aspirations. I hope you enjoy In The Arena.  #whatdrivesyou

Beer drinkers rejoice! My guest this week is Greg Schirf, he started Wasatch Brewery. He is a true pioneer and legend of the craft beer business; he played a critical role in how people are able to consume beer in the state of Utah. He was able to get lawmakers to change legislation and afterwards, in 1986, he created the first brewery in nearly 20 years! Greg then proceeded to start the first brew pub in the State’s history. With fantastic beer such as their Polygamy Porter, Evolution Amber Ale and many more, Wasatch beers has gone on to win over 50 medals at the Great American Beer Festival and the World Beer Cup. In 2010 it was named Midsize Brewing Company of the Year. Greg has paved the way for the more than 50 breweries and distilleries that call Utah home. He helped get High West Distillery off the ground too. For all of this Greg is an even kinder and more generous person. A truly great and inspiring individual. I hope you enjoy Greg’s story and what drove him along his journey to success and innovation. You can find out where to buy and enjoy Wasatch Beers at www.wasatchbeers.com   #whatdrivesyou
