Jeremy "Big Jerm" Koling - AMA (ask me anything)

[Royalhghnss]

What up gang!

We sat down with Big Jerm for an AMA at BSF. I don't think I've ever laughed so much editing a disc golf video. He gives great thoughtful answers to all the questions, and didn't balk at any of them. Huge thanks to him for taking an hour out of his tourney day to do this.

I would also like to point out Alex and I went to sleep at 3 am instead of 2 am because we filmed this and then had to go home and make next day vids... anyway. WATCH THIS. It's gold. Such a great guy.

O btw, next AMA = Gregg Barsby at Worlds.

This may be asking a bit much, but is there any way we could get AMAs in podcast form? Since audio is the big draw for these AMAs it would be nice to have it loaded up on my phone and listen to it as I'm doing dishes, sweeping, putting practice, driving, or whatever.

Got to the 360 forehand and grip segments... video is a huge bonus.

 

[JNichols]

That was Awesome. Looking forward to the next.:thmbup:

LMAO at work on a Friday afternoon, best AMA so far (my favorite at least). Thanks CCDG for all your work.

"Reverse, son!"

I feel like Jerm is the kind of guy you could just point a camera at and say "GO!" and you'd get a goldmine of awesome footage.

Great interview!

My only suggestion... in addition to flashing the questions on the screen.... read them aloud as well. I can't be alone in trying to listen to the interview while doing other things.

In any case... good work as always. It was great having you guys up here at the Fling.

 

[Moose33]

I like that guy, and he's probably the only other guy rocking a 360 FH.

 

[illuminatefreak]

What a fantastic interview. I really liked his demeanor and transparency. I went from someone who enjoyed watching Koling play to a straight up fan when he was asked about his improvement to his mental game and answered with [something along the lines of] "my mental game improved when I decided that I'd rather be a fun guy to play disc golf with than just be known as a good disc golfer." That was a truly great answer and I think it showed just the kind of guy Jeremy Koling is.

I like the idea, but don't think the payoff would be worth the effort. You can always put the vid on, and put in some headphones?

You bet!

Solid idea Steve! I'll do that going forward.

Thanks! I saw you for a hot second filming some Masters stuff. Get some good footage?

 

[Aim For The Chains]

Nice work as always. Big Jerm seems like a really cool guy.

 

[C_Dub]

This was very entertaining. On top of being a great player, he seems like a solid human being. Thanks for putting this together.

 

[tomte]

He really likes to talk...
and, yes please don't just flash the questions. I like to listen and do some other things at the same time...

There are sites you can go to where you can plug in the YT vid and get an audio rip..

Nice, now I feel less silly for occasionally ripping a 360 thumber ;-)

Started in 06 but didn't find anywhere online for resources? 06 was about the peak of DGR/forums.

My 360 forehand rollers circle the tee..
