In today’s show, Mark sits down with former professional triathlete Collin Chartier for a conversation that doesn’t shy away from the uncomfortable. After receiving a three-year ban for a doping violation, Collin opens up—honestly and without deflection- about the decision that changed everything. Why did he do it? What pressures led him there? And what does it actually feel like when the world turns on you? This isn’t a story of excuses. It’s a story of accountability. Collin speaks candidly about the backlash, the public shaming, and the personal reckoning that followed. He reflects on the lessons learned the hard way, and how the experience ultimately reshaped him—for the better. More importantly, he offers a clear warning to others coming up in the sport, alongside a message that cuts through the noise of performance and results. It’s raw. It’s honest. And it’s a conversation that needed to happen. Enjoy","meta_description":"The latest episode of The Brick Session Podcast is now live.
