What could be better than listening to people talking about climbing, except perhaps talking about climbing yourself or maybe actually… climbing? But still – listening to luminaries discussing their values and goals and achievements is pretty interesting – to me. The Enormocast is a US based climbing podcast which ticks a lot of boxes but I was wondering recently whether it was relevant to the majority of Rockhouse-ers. After all, if you haven’t been climbing for decades and if you don’t live in America or at least keep up American climbing news… well, perhaps there is a bit of a disconnect.
In the end, with a few exceptions, I decided not to over-plug Enormcast. Then I listened to this episode. It’s wonderful – such a human perspective on the climbing lifestyle – a real and honest account of one man’s relationship to a mountain and to climbing in general. It’s an hour long but I (personally) regret not a moment of it.
