Listen to this!

Andy is a quirky guy with loads of non climbing related talk that doesn’t really make sense to me. HOWEVER, this guy knows climbing and what’s more he cares to share his immense amount of experience with the rest of us (not sure why. Maybe he wants us to like him or something rubbish like that). This is an amazing podcast, even if you don’t share Andy’s sense of humour. Listen to it. It might save your life, it will make you a better climber.

Wisdom

Excellent podcast focused on experience. A breath of fresh air in this chasing number, energy drink product placement era. Andy’s mind is like a pinball going left and right, he sure knows how to make a short story long.
Truly interesting character, amazing genuine storytelling.

Excellent

Very good podcast. It’s a breath of fresh air and a needed dose of reality compared to most climbing podcasts.
