  • Justin Outdoors joins the show to shed some light on his recent "scandal" after taking a sponsorship for the controversial brand Temu. We talk about why he took the sponsorship, his audience's pushback, and what he's learned. We also dive into some backpacking gear talk, and Justin shares an INSANE story about being charged by a grizzly bear, and discharging his bear spray.

  • Frozen from Outdoor Adventures joins the show to talk about his upcoming thru hike of the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT 2024). He previously hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2019, and is now taking his talents to the Pacific Crest Trail. We talk about what he is nervous about, what gear changes he's made, and how he is planning on dealing with the depressing reality that the Pacific Crest Trail will probably catch on fire while he's out there.

  • Baker is back and in this episode we talk (and disagree) about some of the most OVERRATED types of backpacking gear on the market. At the end of the day everyone is going to have different opinions on what backpacking gear is worth taking, but hopefully this discussion between two thru hikers can help guide your own opinion. What do you think is 'cooler', hammocks or fanny packs?!

  • Fresh off the Appalachian Trail, Maddie from Beer in Beautiful Places joins the show to talk about her hike on the AT, and some of the highs and lows she experienced along the way. One of the highs was floating the Shenandoah River, and one of the lows was a near death experience she had while crossing a dangerous river on the Appalachian Trail in Maine. I highly recommend you check out her channel for a refreshing perspective on thru hiking!

  • Appalachian Trail thru hiker Jessika Poppe is on the show to talk all about the AT, vlogging, being an "influencer" (cringe), meeting/hiking with her boyfriend on trail, and much much more. Jessika quit vlogging in the middle of her thru hike; we talk about why she did that, and we dive deep into how her and her boyfriend met at Appalachian Trail Days 2021.

  • Let's break down some of the biggest controversies in the hiking community right now. Should SOS button's REALLY be available for everyone to use? Is thru hiking with kids really a good thing? And should we be allowed to access the mountains at all? These are some of the things Baker and I wrestle with in this episode. I want to hear your thoughts on ALL of this stuff, so please leave a comment with your feedback.

  • Kristian Morgan has gone for the Appalachian Trail Fastest Known Time/Speed Record FOUR times now. In 2022 he got the second fastest time in the world, and in 2023 he set the FASTEST time for the Appalachian Trail Southbound. We talk about how he achieved this, and we also stray into the more controversial topic of hikers vs ultrarunners.

    I Suck at Hiking (Michael McInally) joins the show to discuss his 2024 Appalachian Trail Thru Hike attempt. He will be vlogging on his YouTube channel, and in this episode I gave him the chance to pick my brain about the trail. I was brutally honest in all my answers. Will he make it all the way to end of the Appalachian Trail, especially with his dog?! We will all find out soon.
