You are not mistaken, this is a new episode of ClimbSci which we recorded on the April 04, 2025. The previous episode was recorded on July 04, 2022.
Anyway, Brian and I had a catchup, and waffle on as is tradition.

Our last podcast was February 2020, and so we decided to get together and host a live recording in July 2022. No doubt due to short notice and the timezones, we didn't have a huge turnout (or tunein), but thanks to the handful of people who did, and ... more

- The best science and educational advice out there
I have been a follower for years, and both of them have always been a big source of inspiration and knowledge to me. The way they articulate and communicate complex stuff for non-professionals is just amazing. There is only one bad thing: not enough episodes :D
The best climbing podcast by far. It will make me so happy to hear from you more often.

I can’t believe I’m just discovering this now! Almost done binging all of the shows. Love the format, love the banter, love the mix of science background info with practical takeaways. I am a vegetarian Alpinist (long-endurance plus long-duration technical climbing), and as such I feel like I need to read between the lines on some of the topics, since this show (like all climbing podcasts) really cater to the pure technical climber who has virtually no need for cardiovascular fitness.

Late to the party here but this podcast is like free nutrition coaching for climbers with all the research studies to back up what they’re saying. Much more convincing when all the mechanisms at work are explained than just Instagram posts. I like the 2 hour long episodes! Not sure why they stopped recording 🤷♀️ would love episodes about vegan / vegetarian diets, women’s nutrition, etc

I have absolutely love this podcast! Listened to the whole thing through twice already and learnt so so much. You have helped me understand macro nutrients and how they are used to fuel us on such a detailed and scientific level. I recommend this podcast to everyone I climb with or anyone doing any kind of training. I hope they make more episodes in the future though I’m guessing that’s unlikely at this stage. Would love to hear an episode on supplementing for general health along with a whole e... more
