  • Summary

  • When climbing was a fringe sport, the epic tales of achievement were told around the campfire. As the sport continues to grow, Alex Honnold and co-host Fitz Cahall grab the mic to share stories from the people who define climbing by pushing the boundaries and challenging the status quo of the previous generation.

    Ben Mayforth: Growth Mindset
    Nov 1 2024
    Ben Mayforth’s strength is a sight to behold. The professional paraclimber’s social clips of campusing double digit boulder problems may have made it into your social feed, but his story runs much deeper than any grade or route. It’s a story of hard work, belonging and finding a path in the world.

  • The Devil's Climb

    The Devil's Climb
    Oct 25 2024
    Last summer, Alex and Tommy Caldwell rode bikes from Estes Park, Colorado to SE Alaska where they boarded a sailboat which dropped them beneath the fabled Devil’s Thumb. Their adventure is now a film on Disney+, but a lot of the experience got left on the cutting room floor. We sat down with Tommy and their photographer/wingman, Taylor Shaffer, to dive deeper into the journey.

  • Saving Cochamó

    Saving Cochamó
    Oct 18 2024
    Tucked away in a corner of Chilean Patagonia, Valle Cochamó wasn’t going to stay hidden forever. The soaring unclimbed granite walls instilled dreams of first ascents in climbers. Industrialists eyed its free flowing rivers with their potential for hydroelectric power. Conservationists hoped it could provide a final puzzle piece of an incredible protected wildlife corridor. To the families who live there, it was simply home where they ranched amidst the 3,000-year-old Alerce trees. This is the story of how a coalition of Chilean gauchos, climbers and activists fought off development efforts for two decades. Now there is an opportunity for a lasting conservation victory.

Great to sit back and enjoy!

We loved this podcast. You would think it would be all about Alex and his life but he rarely talks about himself. The history of climbing is so interesting and entertaining it is a must for your drives to to wall. We climb in the mountains every week, which is two hours from where we live. These have made the drive a lot more enjoyable. Its got great tips in it as well if you are new to climbing like us. The only thing we don't like about it is that they haven't released more yet!

Great Podcast!

The podcasts are well done and enjoyable to listen to. As a climber, it's always great to learn more about the community though I'd still enjoy this podcast even if I didn't climb!
