Apple Podcasts5kwestmcdUnited States5 years ago - Great beta
Like it use it. Brian Harder of Brian.skimolife is predictably great. Host is very good at taking a tough topic and bring it to life. Seems like she does a great job of making high end gear advice accessible.
Apple Podcasts5tehcampbellUnited States8 years ago - Great first gear show
Lisa's first gear show, on alpine touring ski gear was excellent. Her guest was from Exum guides, one of the preeminent outfits in north america and he really knew his stuff. I liked that despite the fact that he was WAY into the subject, he was able to inform on the full range of skill levels, including mine as someone that is just looking to buy some gear.
Thanks for the new source of knowledge Lisa!
Apple Podcasts5ftraylorUnited States9 years ago - Inspiring, informative, intellectual!
Lisa is an excellent storyteller, clear and concise. She speaks to the everyman, you find a piece of yourself in her description, you even realize you're nodding along with her....
Finding a balance between 'beta busy' and creative becomes a new goal!
Thank you for this thought provoking podcast, great job!
I'd love to hear you speak to living life 'thick and rich' as we grow older and hopefully wiser.
