Coming soon: Race To The Top Of The World A narrative podcast about what happens when the influencer economy, adventure tourism and climate change collide in the high Himalayas.

I'm working on a new podcast project and I'm launching a Kickstarter next week to fund it. I hope you'll consider supporting it. And by "consider" I mean open up your wallet and give me all the cash that you were going to use to buy one carton of eggs. Thanks!

Help an indie producer out… give a few bucks… or at least share the post. I did.

Hey friends! I'm trying something new β€” I'm doing a Kickstarter to fund my new narrative podcast. I'd love your support. It's a rough time for all of us, but donating to my new show could be cheaper than a carton of eggs or a gallon of gas. Any support would be so appreciated! Thank you!

I'm baffled by how I ended up getting to handle for @quincemountain.bsky.social this weekend, ride behind him at the cermonial start and meet some #Uglydogs in real life but holy smokes what a privilege it was! Thank you so much and I hope your race is everything you want it to be Quince!

#UglyDogs here is Q being interviewed. He had a lot of interviews yesterday. He is one of the most amazingly gracious and patient people. He takes time to talk and really give his full attention. #MusherSky #Iditarod

A gray husky with a white stripe on her forehead stands next to a truck on a short dropline, wearing booties and looking calm but extremely excited. She's a little grizzled and gray but couldn't be more alert and tuned in. She's radiating purpose and joy.
