The Sounds of Spring: The Best Climber Podcasts
The Dirtbag Diaries
The Dirtbag Diaries is mostly made up of "Shorts", listener-submitted, and narrated, stories about unique adventures related to an outdoor lifestyle. If you like to live vicariously though others, this is the podcast for you. Be prepared for stories that range from extremely inspiring to heart wrenching.
"A Successful Life"
Aimee Brown gets a dream job as a writer at National Geographic, (spoiler alert!) and then quits, because Washington D.C. doesn't compare to their mountain-lifestyle friendly home in the Pacific Northwest
"Three Eighths to Eternity"
Christian Beamish embarks on a solo sailing/surfing trip in a homemade boat down the length of Baja
"Datos Insuficientes"
A paddling trip through the Abysmo section of the Apurimac river, with no real information about the class V water that lies ahead.
The Enormocast
The premise of this podcast is simple. The host, Chris Kalous, sits down with other climbers (some famous, some not so famous), and spends about an hour interviewing them and just chatting about climbing. While it's obviously aimed at climbers, anybody that likes outdoor adventure interviews will enjoy this one.
Craig Demartino, amputee climber
Brendan Leonard, and his dirtbag climber lifestyle
Alex Honnold, who needs no real introduction
Addendum, added 26/04/13:
