Episode Title: Ice Storm Survival: Comfort Food, Community, and Staying Active

Publish Date: 01/28/2026

Hosted by: Jenn Schofield + Jodi Ross

Brand: Danz Insanity Studios

Episode Summary

January is dragging, the South is doing its annual “storm panic,” and Jenn + Jodi are reporting live from Storm Central at Danz Insanity Studios. They unpack the chaos of ice-storm life below the Mason-Dixon line (aka brined roads, no plows, and “snane”), the hilarity of pre-storm grocery store behavior, and why storms turn everyone into a soup-and-casserole chef.

They also get real about storm safety (no rope-towing sleds, please), storm snacks + drinks (hello Bloody Caesars and a peanut butter whiskey dessert situation), and the silver lining: movement + community. DI members are “chomping at the bit” to dance again, so the crew highlights the online platform (included with membership), how to use the dance library, and how to get involved from anywhere—plus a fun storm challenge with a prize.
