    الحلقة ٢

    Ep 02: The Moneyball Episode

    In an attempt to assess the percentage of elite athletes with ADHD compared to the general population, I wound up in a deep dive of baseball statistics and the murky way they help to show this pattern. Episode two tells the story of how it came to be that today, the Major League Baseball players’ association and the Office of the Commissioner of Baseball publish an annual report, available to the public, that shows the number of professional baseball players taking medication to treat ADHD. But numbers by themselves rarely tell the full story.

  4. Ep 04: Flight, Invisibility or ADHD

    الحلقة ٤

    Ep 04: Flight, Invisibility or ADHD

    Today’s episode explores the narrative that ADHD is a superpower in rock climbing. For some people, the chance to flip the script on their disorder is something they jump at, but for others, it feels like an entirely incomplete way to think about their experience. Seven climbers weigh in on how they think about their brain chemistry in relation to their climbing.

  5. Ep 05: Double-edged Sword

    الحلقة ٥

    Ep 05: Double-edged Sword

    In today's episode, we take the niche theme of this season one step further, diving into the incredibly specific topic of how people with adhd experience and relate to fear in climbing. Even though fear is an important element behind the enjoyment many people with adhd find in climbing, their hyperfocus can become a double-edged sword, leading some climbers with adhd to fixate on thoughts of fear and spiral into all the things that might go wrong.

  6. Ep 06: Community

    الحلقة ٦

    Ep 06: Community

    This episode tackles the second half of the hypothesis I started with this season: what does the climbing community mean to people with adhd and other neurodivergent identities? Do those identities contribute to our misfit identity as climbers, and is that something to pay attention to and protect as climbing overall becomes more mainstream? Zofia Reych, a climbing anthropologist, historian, and writer weighs in on their experience, and we hear from five other climbers with adhd for their thoughts too. Join my Patreon!

  7. Ep 07: Belonging and Accepting your Brain

    الحلقة ٧

    Ep 07: Belonging and Accepting your Brain

    In the season finale of Season 2, a conversation with Jenny Fischer, the CEO of Ocun North America, about how she thinks about her identity as incomplete without an acknowledgment of her adhd but also completely ineffective if she hangs her whole identity on it. As someone who was diagnosed in middle school, Jenny has been sitting with and reflecting on how she relates to her diagnosis for over two decades. This episode turned into something of a meditation on identity, self worth, learning about yourself through climbing, and the fluidity of growing up.  Join my Patreon!

    BONUS: a bikepacking trip report

    Nothing to do with Buddy Check. This is an audio trip report from a bike packing trip I took with a friend to the UK in October. I wanted to tell the story in audio form, and I decided to share it here. Something to tide you over until I release season 3. As with Buddy Check, this story starts with sport (biking here rather than climbing) but also explores much more than that: this time, turning 30, being in friendship while navigating chronic illness, and you know, the meaning of life. Original music by Eric Anders and Kenny Clarkson.
