Never Far from Home Ep. 324 - Blazing Trails
Episode 24
Friday, 17 July, 2026

Zac Pearson joins the podcast, and we are able to explore his timeline that is full of passion for the game. While he navigated his professional career within the game, with a number of seasons playing pro in a few different leagues, he realized he would inevitably fall into coaching at some point. That Realization came to fruition, and he was owner, GM, and head coach for a number of teams in the JR hockey ranks, most notably the Decatur Blaze for over a decade. Zac continues to pursue his love of the game, and spreads it globally with European tours he hosts for kids, with some exhibition games mixed in. Recently he has begun a challenging fight to rid his body of cancer. Find out more on the Never Far from Home website as to how you can help him in his battle! https://www.neverfarfromhome.org/give/zac/ https://www.beautyunis.com/ https://www.thegardensicehouse.com/ https://summitcustomsticks.com/
