Rock Stars with Jennifer Jones and Brent Laing
Rock Stars is a weekly podcast hosted by Olympic gold medalist, world champion curler, lawyer, and motivational speaker Jennifer Jones, alongside her husband, business partner and world champion curler Brent Laing. Drawing from decades of experience in elite sport, business, and family life, this show explores what it looks like to actually chase your dreams, with an inside look into the proof it’s possible. From high performance leadership, decision making and strategy, to culture, values, and integrity, with curling as a central thread throughout. Tune in for behind the scenes stories, major moments, and timely conversations about curling’s evolution, all used as powerful parallels for business, relationships, and living a full life with where your feet are planted.
Beyond the sheet, listeners can expect honest conversations about parenting, marriage, ambition, and balancing high expectations with being present for the moments that matter most. Jennifer and Brent get into what worked, what didn’t, and what they learned along the way while chasing Olympic dreams, building careers, and raising a family in the public eye. New episodes released every Wednesday, offering fresh perspective, practical insight, and your reminder to work hard, laugh often, and enjoy the journey!

Free Agent Frenzy - Curling Style
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today on Rock Stars, we pull back the curtain on curling’s free agent frenzy and talk honestly about how teams are formed at the end of a quadrennial. We walk through the tough conversations to the reality that there are no general managers, no formal contracts, and no clear rules.
We also dig into the double standards that show up between men’s and women’s teams, what younger players need to focus on if they want to become world leading, and why team chemistry can matter just as much as shot making. From sponsorship splits and Olympic cycles to the pressure of chasing teams, we break down the business side of curling and what it really takes to build something that lasts.
