The Nate Mazurek Episode

On today’s episode of the Lax Lounge we sit down and talk with our good friend Nate Mazurek. Nate talks about his experience going to an all boys high school and the chaos he’s witnessed first hand as well as his freshman year playing Division 1 lacrosse during peak covid policies. We then shift to why he decided to come to Cabrini and what it is like to live at the infamous house on Henry Avenue where his open door policy has caused some iconic moments. Finally Nate talks about his experience watching the Eagles win Super Bowl 52 and this year seeing them come up just short against the Chiefs. We wrap up with a draft of things to do when it snows where we get to reminisce on snow days as a kid as Philadelphia weather transitions to summer. Overall this was a great conversation with Nate that quickly might make him a fan favorite guest.
