Customer Reviews
Unlocking the Soul of Ascent
Rock climbing is more art than sport. Niall has committed to long form exploratory interviews with dedicated individuals. He does not capitulate (Sisu! [look it up]) to modern attention spans and conventional pentameter.
These are conversations that are bold, irreverent and honest. Taken as a whole, each interview paints a large scale vibe that Isn’t exactly heard in each word but rather felt through a landscape.
Niall’s genius is hard to pin down. I would say that his podcast casts a net and captures a rareness in modern media.
Recommended podcast
NAILL GRIMES IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED. He will attempt to hoodwink you with his bumbling intros, improvisational nonsense, and bamboozling shifts in tone and content. These are in fact cooly calculated designs to create the most hilarious, engaging, and thoughtful podcast on the free podcast market. These designs have succeeded. Never miss an episode. You will love it. Thank you Naill, you devious genius.
The Taylor Parsons episode is amazing
One of the most humane and moving interviews I’ve ever listened to. Huge thanks to Taylor for sharing her story with such honesty and openness and to Niall for helping her share it with the world.
