Adam’s Birthday Episode: Diamonds, Distractions & Diagnoses

from Intrusive Thoughts by Adam Rippon

It’s late, Adam’s flight is in a few hours, and instead of packing—he’s recording this very special birthday episode. Between using an iron as a desk and sipping cherry limeade “water” strong enough to strip paint, he reflects on turning 36, being born on 11/11 (yes, same day as Leonardo DiCaprio and Carson Kressley), and the time he became too famous to skate. When a listener voicemail asks about his viral “Diamonds” performance, Adam finally tells the full story—how one chaotic idea in Japan turned into him singing to a sold-out arena instead of competing. He wraps things up with a mini ADHD confession, a questionable cologne hack, and one final sip before sprinting to the airport.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
