I don’t know what the secret sauce is for a podcast, or if whatever that is appeals to me more than the next person, but The Runout is the podcast I look forward to the most…and feel a bit bummed when it was been a couple of weeks without hearing from Chris and Andrew. They make me laugh, make me cringe (though less and less), and listen. After trying a the rest of the climbing PCs, I just keep coming back to The Runout and The Enormocast (Chris’ other pod). If you climb, or if you love being ... more

United States18 days ago - Best climbing podcast
God-tier content from Chris and Andrew. Their little ingenious move of cutting the intros got me to become a rope gun (again). I simply couldn’t handle being deprived of a portion of the banter. But it was worth it because the bonus content is excellent. Just Chris and Andrew BSing about whatever. Best climbing pod out there (except for Grimer’s of course)

Canadaa year ago - Best climbing podcast that isn’t about training
It’s funny too. Thanks fellas.
Apple Podcasts5JackChuffs5.6United Statesa year ago - Stop cutting intros
Please stop cutting the intros. This is the top climbing media on the internet. I can’t be teased this way!
Apple Podcasts5guillermo ernesto moralesCanada2 years ago - Casual conversation, by real climbers, with the best guests out there.
The casual conversation at the beginning is what makes the show hilarious. Going hard with completely outrageous statements and trying to hold them half seriously proves that you're not taking yourselves too seriously and it's perfect to offset interviews with climbing megastars. Watch out to not fall for the "it was better before" trope too often. Keep it up, it's the best show on climbing out there.
