The tables get turned on WTIP Boundary Waters Podcast hosts Matthew Baxley and Joe Friedrichs in episode 20. A fan of the podcast and BWCA enthusiast Chelsea Lloyd stopped through Grand Marias after a summer 2019 paddling trip. Joe and Matthew met Chelsea at the Midwest Mountaineering Expo in Minneapolis in April and struck up a conversation about podcasting and paddling. When Chelsea stopped by WTIP to record an interview on the podcast about her summer trip, she flipped the script and started to interview Joe and Matthew. Low and behold, it was a significant moment in the history of the WTIP Boundary Waters Podcast.

In fact…WTIP is pleased to announced that Chelsea Lloyd is now a host on the Boundary Waters Podcast! Episode 20 is Chelsea’s first interview, and there are many more to come on upcoming episodes.

Also featured in episode 20 is Danny Warnock, a musician and software engineer who loves exploring the BWCA. While canoe camping, Danny prefers to sleep in a hammock. He enjoys it so much, in fact, he started his own company that specializes in backcountry hammock camping. Superior Hammock is the company, and Matthew finds out more about its products and Danny’s paddling experiences.

August is an amazing time in the Boundary Waters. We dive right into the goodness on this episode.
