  • Great content, but…

    Please please please get the hosts better microphones. Compared with the audio quality of nearly any other podcast these days, it’s almost hard go listen to this show. Absolutely love the content but I find myself stopping halfway through a show or sometimes even earlier because the audio is so bad.

  • Mix it up

    Good podcast and informative episodes. But please mix it up with different guests. Martin is on way too often, and his freeloading ways off other expeditions is cringe worthy. Not a model climber.
