I have to disagree with some of the other reviews. I personally like the host a lot. She’s approachable and friendly, which is a nice departure from some of the more agro corners of this sport. Speaking of, I really appreciate the episodes on the latest accidents book; it’s such a great service to provide to the climbing community. But please have a different guest on to discuss the findings! The book editor comes across so cocky and arrogant.
Keeping important safety tools behind a paywall of - “get the Accidents in North American Climbing” is inappropriate and contrary to the mission of the club / work. Really disappointing.
The Denali rescue episode was one of the best ever. I could just appreciate how out there those guys were. True hard men all and with such modest self deprecating personalities. Genuine spirit of big mountain climbing adventure.
The moderator drives me crazy. Too many “likes,” and when posing a question it turns into a running monologue where three or four questions are asked. I don’t know how the interviewees keep track of what they are supposed to be responding to. .
Such a variety of content and guests and always keeps me interested.
