  • #147 A Long Way From Nowhere with Chris Ward
    Chris Ward is an interesting cat and I've wanted to have him on the podcast for a long time.  Not only does he host a podcast but he teaches middle school science, runs ultramarathons--and most recently, produced and co-directed the beautifuly crafted ultrarunning documentary, A Long Way From Nowhere.  The film follows the Desert Rats 150 mile stage race and the colorful characters that dare to take on such an event.  This movie is for everyone and it's going to get you right in the feels.  Don't sleep on this one!  Available on March 10th.

  • #144 Just Finish the Line / Keith Hayes and Laura Kaplan

    Keith Hayes and Laura Kaplan just completed the Nolan's 14 line.  They've been obsessed with these 14 peaks all summer long and they put a lot of time and effort into scouting and completing the project.  It took them 85 hours to complete the line which means they were out there (and awake) for the majority of three nights.  They were up against some gnarly weather and the fact that they pushed on was pretty mind blowing to me.  I absolutely loved talking with them, I hope you enjoy this conversations!
