So who was really behind the creation of BLISTER, how did the whole thing get started, and was it actually due to a misunderstanding over a couple of beers on the weekend of Independence Day, 2010? Today, Jonathan Ellsworth and Michael Clarke discuss all of the above, as well as giant tortoises, some keys to long-lasting friendships, and more.

Misplaced Guilt? Misplaced Pride? A Different Conversation about Climate Issues
What should we do to most significantly and quickly improve the current climate situation? Should we all be pooping in buckets?
At Blister Summit 2024, I had a conversation with Amie Engerbretson (Atomic); Dr. Len Necefer (Founder, NativesOutdoors & the Sonoran Avalanche Center); and Jake Black (Sr. Director of Programs, Protect Our Winters) to address this and a whole lot more.

Customer Reviews
Love the content
Been listening for a while now, started as one of the 100 listening to news with Cody but keep listening to all the podcasts! Doing a great job.

100 followers can’t be wrong!
Topical, interesting, in-depth and never dull. Easily my favourite podcast - especially when Cody T weighs in to review the news. Keep up the great work.
Cody You Have Global Listeners
Cody and Jonathan Some of your “100” listeners of Reviewing The News are global so I have appreciated it when it doesn’t include American Football 😀 Anyway, I’m all seriousness I really enjoy the podcast. I can’t remember if I discovered the 50 Project or Blister first but putting them together is great.
When it comes to coffee I would love to hear some discussion on espresso as well.
Cheers from Canberra Australia
