Executive produced by Chip and Joanna Gaines, the new competition series Roller Jam premieres tonight, October 10, 2024, on Max. Produced by Nikki Boella (America's Got Talent, Rhythm + Flow) and Brian Lando (A Very Brady Renovation), Roller Jam is a six-episode competition series featuring the top roller-skating crews in the country dancing through the decades for a chance to win a $150,000 cash prize and a $10,000 donation to their local rink.

GRAMMY-nominated, multi-platinum singer/songwriter and actress Jordin Sparks hosts the series, with two-time U.S. Olympian and national figure skating champion Johnny Weir and roller-skating legend Terrell Ferguson serving as judges of the first-ever nationwide roller dancing competition on television. Each episode, skate teams must create all-new routines to perform for Weir, Ferguson and a celebrity guest judge in front of a live audience with only one chosen in the end as the ultimate roller dancing team in the country.

In October 2024, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jordin Sparks, Johnny Weir and Terrell Ferguson via Zoom, as embedded above and set to air via the Long Beach, New York-based Paltrocast With Darren Paltrowitz television series. Prior Paltrocast conversations with Sparks can be found here and here.
