I’ll say this about BOOM 🧨 BOOM: they are one of the most prepared interviewees I’ve encountered. Given they have a background in sports-related interviews, I felt entirely like I was a rookie reporter for a middle school newspaper trying…
Interview
Axe Thrower Interview: Maydayy Maydayy!
This was the very first axe thrower interview I did at IATC 2026, and it shows: I didn’t really ask many follow up questions, stuck to what I wrote down (frantically) on the trip to Port Lands, and (in listening…
Axe Thrower Interview: Queen HBO
Queen HBO to many, Adeline to…just as many(?), and axe throwing wonder to most. Adeline already has a very accomplished axe throwing career, and community impact. 1/3rd of An Axe League of Their Own, 2nd place finisher at IATC ’26,…
Axe Thrower Interview: Lemons

Axe Thrower Interview: Dreadz! And introducing our newest correspondent.

Axe Thrower Interview: Miss Julia
I don’t know that I met Julia before the U.S. Championships, but what an introduction she made! During the Adeline Cup, she used a whole lotta skill and determination to reach 2nd place — the entire time being laser-focused on…
Axe Thrower Interview: Nikki “Penikillin” Miller
I’ve had the good fortune of talking to Nikki a few times over the years as various tourneys, so I decided to just go ahead and get it on the record. “It” being an interview – not Nikki. They were…
