When climbing was a fringe sport, the epic tales of achievement were told around the campfire. As the sport continues to grow, Alex Honnold and co-host Fitz Cahall grab the mic to share stories from the people who define climbing by pushing the boundaries and challenging the status quo of the previous generation.

Excellent podcast covering all aspects of climbing culture, psychology and history. Highly engaging all the way back to S1E1.
Just wanted to say thanks, and that this podcast has helped revive my love for mountain sports. I enjoy the historical breakdowns and the sort-of trip reports most.
Always good to hear Alex chat about climbing and life. Way too many ads, and a vague undercurrent of body image judgement.
Currently listening to as many episodes as I can. Alex has turned out to be a really wonderful interviewer with great questions and insightful perspectives. I’m actually really surprised at how good the podcast is. Now one of my favorites and a go to whenever I’m listening.
