As an extremely amateur/new mountaineer I am loving the info/updates/interviews in Alan’s podcast
Loved the episode with Scott Parazynski. Very friendly, upbeat and personable chat covering Scott’s amazing feats. Loved both of your approaches to “failure”, i.e. “non summits” and “learning experiences”. Truly inspirational. As previous reviews have said, Alan’s audio quality could be improved
The definitive pod on Everest and big mountain high altitude climbing yet so down to earth - like sitting around having a beer with a friend who happens to tell the best stories that are actually true. Love the fictional version of a climb - absolutely epic!
Come here for my Everest fix as an armchair mountaineer. Alan delivers the goods
