I was on a flight home from Amsterdam last year when I watched FREE SOLO.

It’s a documentary about Alex Honnold free-climbing Yosemite’s El Capitan. Right away, I knew Alex and I had nothing in common – I mean… I hate heights and I’m 6’6”… do you even know what it’s like living with that kind of daily contradiction???

Then, he started talking about fear and and I realized: to some, playing on stages in front of thousands of people might as well be climbing massive cliff… let’s talk about what it takes to get comfortable with it or anything else for that matter…

Here’s the interview referenced in this episode:
