  • Skiing the 50 Classic Descents in North America with Cody Townsend
    Dec 17 2024

    Cody Townsend is one of America's most well-known and beloved professional skiers. In his 20s, Cody made a name for himself as a competitive alpine ski racer before starring in dozens of blockbuster ski movies. His fame skyrocketed in 2014 when he skied The Crack, a steep and narrow gully in Alaska. Following this feat, Cody embarked on an ambitious journey to ski the 50 classic lines in North America— a project that isn't quite finished and maybe never will be.

  • Completing 52 Hikes in A Year with Karla Amador
    Dec 10 2024

    About a decade ago, entrepreneur Karla Amador set her sights on completing 52 hikes in a year. She didn't consider herself outdoorsy, so it helped to break down her goal into small, actionable steps, like hiking at least one mile each weekend. She called this project "The 52 Hike Challenge." 10 years later, she's turned it into a national company that encourages thousands of participants to get outside.

Extraordinary interview that inspires me.

This is the best podcast I've been following.
I started a podcast last July, my friend recommended this to me as I'm also interviewing many outdoor enthusiasts , entrepreneurs or traveler. (in Mandarin) I fell in love with this show immediately. I'm addicted to it and I'm stoked by how big the world is and how powerful these stories brought to me. As a podcaster I know how complex to prep each interview and edit and to have such a great content , the whole production process is not a easy task.

Thank you again. I really learn a lot from each episode.
