Interview with Mark Hanretty

[manleywoman]

Ever wondered about Mark Hanretty's background in commentary? Or what his favorite compulsory dance is? I was fortunate enough to interview Mark this past weekend. If you like skating podcasts — or simply listening to a lovely Scottish accent — give it a listen!

A full transcription will be posted on the page later this week.

That reminds me I hope someday we will get to hear the other half of Rohene Ward's story!

I'm gonna go listen. I love, love, love Mark's Scottish accent, and his palpable enthusiasm for life and for figure skating.

Thanks @manleywoman.

For those wondering, years ago @manleywoman interviewed Rohene Ward. He was in a car, as I recall, so the sound wasn't the best in some parts. They were supposed to get together again for a part 2.

I am really glad that Mark stayed in skating; that politics stuff he briefly mentioned was nasty; many would of walked away.

Out of interest, what is the commentary like for (the growing world of) synchronized skating?
