  • Delightful climbing training podcast

    There’s so many climbing podcasts out there these days. But none are quite as good at striking the right balance between fun and informative. Lauren and Caitlin have managed to create something so delightful and zany that I’m constantly grinning and giggling as I listen. Never before has climbing (and non climbing!) knowledge been so enjoyable to absorb. Eagerly awaiting the next episode.
