LIFTED is back, and we’re kicking off Season Two on WHEELS!

LIFTED is our podcast. It tells positive real-life stories of people breaking boundaries in their communities.

In the first episode of season two, we’re rollin’ with Sigourney Cleaver, a skater from Buffalo’s Queen City Roller Girls, as she kicks ass on game day. You’ll be transported to the unforgiving, physical, and adrenaline-soaked experience of fighting through the pack during a bout. Pull up your pantyhose – this episode is flying out of the gate so fast you’re gonna get rink rash.
