This week I sit down with a personal hero of mine, Conrad Anker. Conrad is a world-renowned alpinist who has an extensive resume of first ascents all around the world, perhaps most notably his discovery of the body of missing adventure climber George Mallory on Mt. Everest in 1999, or his first ascent of "The Shark's Fin" on Meru peak.

Conrad and I talk about his beginnings in climbing, his path to becoming a professional climber, his experience with Meru and the risks that go in to taking on such a lofty endeavor.

Check out what Conrad is up to at conradanker.com , follow him on instagram @Conrad_anker , and support the brads he represents (The North Face, Smartwool, Voke Tab, Petzl, Bluewater Ropes)

This week I sit down with co-founder/owner of The Loaded Bowl, Tevin Grupe. Loaded Bowl is a healthy, vegan alternative to your favorite comfort food and a welcome addition to Oklahoma City's food choices. Tevin and I talk about the restaurant/food truck's beginnings and the process of starting a vegan restaurant in a state still growing in terms of healthy lifestyle.

I also sit down with my wife, Marrett Hild to read hilarious and random Yelp reviews, because all this talk about restaurant ownership threw me in to a spiral of looking for crazy people who leave reviews for strange reasons.

Check out Loaded Bowl on facebook and look for them on instagram @loadedbowltruck
