BLISTER Podcast

Cody Townsend recently wrote that “the climate movement has failed.” Today, Paul Forward talks with Cody and Alex Lee (Protect Our Winters’ Director of Science & Education) to discuss how and where the outdoor community is making a difference, and how we might do better. And with tomorrow being Election Day, there's no better time to remind everyone to get out and vote!

Next week in Virgin, Utah, Red Bull Rampage will celebrate its 25th anniversary. And today, we talk to Todd Barber, the creator of what is arguably the most spectacular and mind-melting athletic event in the world, about the origins and evolution of the event. Many of us have strong opinions about Rampage, and this conversation provides a lot of important context to inform those opinions.
