In this episode of 204 Rise, we take you behind the scenes of our most unfor­get­table moments. It all start­ed with a sur­re­al back­stage encounter with Jel­ly Roll – a raw, unfil­tered expe­ri­ence that became our high­est-viewed episode ever.

We share the chaos, excite­ment, and unex­pect­ed insights from our time with the Are­na Rock­erz at Jel­ly Rol­l’s Beau­ti­ful­ly Bro­ken Tour while he was stop­ping in Win­nipeg, reveal­ing how this viral moment shaped our jour­ney. The sto­ry doesn’t stop there though, we also open up about the pres­sure of suc­cess, over­com­ing self-doubt, and the piv­otal moment when we signed a major deal that trans­formed 204 Rise.

This episode is a mix of wild expe­ri­ences, hard lessons, and big wins. This is the unfil­tered truth behind 204rise. If you’ve ever won­dered what it takes to turn a pas­sion into a brand, this is the episode for you.

They didn’t wait for a seat at the table, they made their own.

In this episode, we’re joined by Han­nah Pick­nic­ki and Emma Novak of the Track Talk Pod­cast, two con­tent cre­ators carv­ing out space in one of the most male-dom­i­nat­ed sports on the plan­et: motor sports. What start­ed as a pas­sion project quick­ly turned into a pod­cast with seri­ous trac­tion lead­ing to exclu­sive pad­dock access, brand col­lab­o­ra­tions, and a grow­ing com­mu­ni­ty of fans who final­ly feel seen.

We talk about the hus­tle behind the high­lights, the real­i­ty of being women in the motor sports media space, and how trust­ing their vision helped them go from record­ing in their bed­rooms to show­ing up trackside.

🎙️ Whether you’re a rac­ing fan, a con­tent cre­ator, or just some­one with a dream — this one’s for you.
