- Patagonia’s biggest haters
They truly hate on this brand whenever they can. This most recent pod showed that again. Trying so hard to be contrarian to the industry’s leading brand. THEY GIVE 100% of their profits to the outdoors and other enviro and social causes. They clearly don’t have insider knowledge on Patagonia because they’d be hyped about the new pow slayer kit or the upcoming drops. Had to unsubscribe because the hateration was getting old…

United Statesa year ago - My Go-To Industry Pod
As a wholesale rep, this has become my go-to listen more than once a week. The shows offer such a great intersection of insights about what’s going on in the industry generally, brand and product trends, retail analysis alongside so much more. And, all delivered in a fun and inquisitive manner.
Super grateful to you guys for what you are doing…..and maybe at some point event contribute a couple of show ideas??
Apple Podcasts5Amiee97United Statesa year ago - I Have Found My Podcast Squad
I have been an outdoor enthusiast my entire life and more specifically - an outdoor industry retail sales associate for the better part of 14 years. Finding people outside of my immediate work environment and experience to “talk shop” with, can feel very insular and limiting in perspective. Finding the Rock Fight podcast, however, has been a breath of fresh air. Colin and his merry band of outdoor industry misfits 😁 are a delight to listen to: informative, insightful, and entertaining. They giv... more
Apple Podcasts5JessieTYCGUnited Statesa year ago - Struggle.
Have worked in the industry for 10+ years and I struggle with every episode, but keep pushing through hoping it gets better. Plus, nobody else is stepping up to speak about these topics. The hosts don’t have a solid background in the industry to speak to topics with the authority they try to. Half the time they pronounce brand names incorrectly and don’t know product offerings. Was excited for an industry podcast to finally take shape but not sure this is it.
While I love love that there is a f... more
