Acerca de esta escucha

Your two hosts of this podcast work as professional guides in the Alaskan outdoor tourism industry and started this podcast as a fun way to keep busy during the pandemic summer of 2020. With uncertainty in what employment might look like, Danny and Andrew still wanted to share the beauty of Alaska with people and this podcast was a good way to achieve that goal. Alaska is an incredible place everybody should put on their destination bucket list. Each episode opens with a beer review highlighting a local Alaskan brewery and then tackles a different topic relating to what makes Alaska such a unique place in the world. With all the fun being had drinking Alaskan brews and sharing fascinating information about the Last Frontier State, what started as a fun short term project has morphed into a long term endeavor. With this decision, investments were made in much better production equipment and the sound quality drastically improves starting in Phase II of the podcast with Episode 17 (Feb 21, 2021 release date). We hope you enjoy the content and strongly encourage you to visit Alaska in the future!

  • The Comedy Scene of the Last Frontier
    Jun 8 2025

    Disclaimer: Some content in this episode may not be suitable for the younger listeners.

    We finally did it! After five years, we got to check that Explicit Content box. It felt good. On today's program, we were thrilled to have three stand up comedians take a break from their Kenai Peninsula comedy tour and join us to chat about the comedy scene in the Last Frontier. They provide their insights into the comedy culture of Alaska, share their true thoughts on improv, and provide our lovely beer review rating scale comparing (bleep) size to earthquake magnitude. Small amounts of adult content, largely educational, and 100% fun! How does a comedian develop material? How can you connect with the comedy scene in Alaska? And what happens when you invite comedians to review a beer?! It's the episode mom's everywhere will be proud of!
