I’ve been listening to the show for over a year now. To me it is hit or miss — I probably finish half of the episodes. But the hits are home runs and that keeps me coming back. I subscribe. The series of interviews Ed did with Nature Conservancy people were terrific.
The pace of the show is too slow for me. It’s a lot for me to devote an hour to a pod and these are consistently longer than that. I’d like a little editing but then it wouldn’t be Ed.
Ed Does a great job sharing wide ranging views of the west with stories about adventures, hard work, art, and the environmental impact we have on the fragile places we love to see.
One time I ran into Ed at the Denver airport.
This is such a thoughtful and insightful show. It’s such a treat to hear from a wide variety of folks who care so much about the American West.
Had not heard of this before today but have already listened to multiple shows. I’m hooked
