  • Love the insights & conversations. Sweet pod

    Not a huge mountaineer or alpinist myself, but a few episodes I’ve listened to really break it down to simple terms and it’s fascinating.

  • Good show.

    Interesting guests. Prefer to hear more from the guests and less about the hosts. One suggestion is to either clean up the language a little. Too many F bombs and the S word. Or just add the E warning to the episode. So it’s safe to listen with children.

  • Great guests & stories

    Love the split into the 2 sections. First, the conversation among the two hosts about Tahoe, Himalaya, climbing …etc and then a guest who always has a inspirational story. You can feel the camaraderie among the participants. Always a great listen that lets me forget time.

  • Life Lessons & Great Stories

    I’m an avid hiker, but aspiring high altitude climber. I end up learning so many great nuggets from every episode. Sometimes I think I might skip an episode when they’re interviewing someone in skiing or an activity I don’t do, but those end up being some of my favorite episodes and have great lessons, too!
