United States14 days ago - Best Hiker Podcast by far!
I can’t express enough how great this podcast is, I literally see rainbows and butterflies every time and listen/watch. When I started listening I could only hike 5 miles a day but after many episodes I’m up to 200 miles a day just because of the great advice and info I’ve learned from Backpacker Radio. Zach and Chaunce have the best podcast voices that are smooth like butter and put me into a euphoric state each episode. Also listening to the podcast has been scientifically proven to add 30 yea... more
Apple Podcasts5Jim FossumUnited Statesa month ago - 5 Stars!
I love this podcast! Started listening before my hike of the Vermont long Trail and have been ever since! Great interviews and stories that can be enjoyed by anyone, thruhiker or not!
Apple Podcasts5Joemini123United Statesa month ago - Great topics and stories!
Love this podcast, just started listening but it’s now my go-to. The banter between hosts and interviewee makes it feel like a Friday night hangout rather than a podcast, and the topics and stories shared really resonate with me and my interests. Even the ads and sponsors are outdoorsy related and right up my alley! The length of each podcast (multiple hours!!) helps the work day go by so much quicker. Give it a listen!

I usually start podcasts with episode 1 and work my way to the the most recent release, but y’all have provided a steady stream of episodes with awesome guests and backcountry banter, and I haven’t caught up yet.
I was holding off since episode 4 thinking someone else would have brought this up already, but I think Chaunce missed out on a gem of a trail name. What are the odds Chaunce would change he... more
