What Really Goes Into Producing the We’re Not Stumped Podcast

What does it really take to produce a podcast?

In this special solo episode of We’re Not Stumped, I’m taking you behind the scenes to share how the podcast started, what happens before and after every interview, and the lessons I’ve learned from producing more than 200 episodes.

I’ll talk about:

  • Why I decided to start the podcast
  • How I find and prepare guests
  • My recording setup and workflow
  • Editing
  • What I’d do differently if I were starting today
  • Advice for anyone thinking about launching their own podcast

Whether you’re interested in podcasting, storytelling, or simply curious about what goes into creating We’re Not Stumped, I hope this episode gives you a new perspective—and maybe the confidence to start your own show.

If you’ve ever thought, “I’d love to start a podcast someday,” this episode is for you.

Mike Bolland PBA Bound!

What happens when you step back into something you once loved… years later? In this special episode of We’re Not Stumped, Mike Bolland shares the story behind his bowling comeback — from becoming the first person with limb loss to compete on the PBA Tour to stepping back onto the lanes with a renewed sense of purpose. But this story is about more than bowling. It’s about rediscovering confidence, overcoming fear, finding purpose again, and proving that it’s never too late to chase something meaningful. Whether you’re facing adversity, starting over, or trying to reconnect with something you once loved, this episode is a reminder that your story is still being written.

I Hate to Break It to Woody Harrelson… but I Was the Original Kingpin.

Before the movie Kingpin ever hit theaters, I was already bowling professionally with one hand as the first amputee to compete on the PBA Tour.

Now decades later, at 61 years old, I’m making a comeback. This video is a fun look at the similarities between my story and the iconic movie — except this one’s real.

From bowling with one hand… to stepping back onto the lanes for the PBA60 World Championship… this comeback is about proving it’s never too late to chase something meaningful again.

And yes… I’m still trying to avoid the gutter balls and my hook flying off!.
