    Interviewing Skyler the Cave-Diving, Plane-Building Engineer While Rappelling

    Skyler isn’t a pro adventurer. He doesn’t have sponsors or followers chasing him.  He’s just an engineer with a full-time job who refuses to live a life that’s too safe, too small, too disconnected. In this episode, we rappel 200 feet into the canyons of Capitol Reef while recording mid-adventure with a group of friends. Skyler opens up about how he got into climbing, flying planes, diving caves, and even building an airplane in his garage.  We also hear a gripping story of a river trip that nearly turned deadly and how doing hard things helps him show up better in everyday life. This is an episode for the everyday adventurer. For anyone asking: “What if I just said yes?”

    The Story Behind the Annual 80-Person Moab Trip and Moab and Beyond Adventure Group

    What started as a spontaneous invite to a Moab trip changed the entire course of my life and eventually grew into an annual tradition for a tight-knit community of adventurers. In this episode of Stoke Talk, I take you inside the 10th annual Moab and Beyond trip, an 80-person camping adventure I do every year.  🎙 In this episode, you'll hear: How a non-adventurous, overbooked kid became an organizer of 190+ tripsWhat really goes into planning (and surviving) a group trip this sizeWhy we chose to make pizza for 80 people in the desertWhat I’ve learned about building community through side-by-side sufferingHow we design big trips to spark small moments despite the chaosWhy connection is the true fruit of adventureThis episode was recorded in three parts:  🎧 On the road to Moab  🔥 Around the fire while slinging pizzas  🌄 Alone in the desert after everyone left Stoke Talk isn’t about pro athletes or influencers. It’s about regular people who make space for something wild despite the 9-5, relationships, and real life. When you unplug, say yes to adventures, and suffer a little with strangers, something real happens. If you’ve ever wanted to start your own group, plan your first trip, or just remember why adventure matters, this one’s for you.

    Alex Climbs El Cap in Yosemite Episode One Intro

    In this episode, I’m hanging out with one of my oldest adventure friends, Alex Temus—aka “Alex Kayak” in my phone, because that’s how we met 8 years ago at a random BYU kayak club night. We recorded this on the road heading to a canyoneering trip (during an eclipse, no less), and covered everything from how Alex got into climbing to what it was like sleeping on the side of El Capitan for 4 days straight. We also talk about: Growing up in an outdoorsy family and getting the “adventure bug”What it really takes to climb the Nose of El CapThat one time Alex fell in Zion and became low-key famous with search & rescueHow having a stoked friend group changes everythingAdvice for anyone looking to get started in climbing or any new adventure Episode is just the intro. So if you are ready to jump into the El Cap climb experience head over to episode 2 and come back for the intro when you are ready!
