Jonathan Brandt | Routesetting
Saturday Dec 30, 2017
Saturday Dec 30, 2017
Routesetting is hard. You know that if you've tried to set your own problems. It's also hard on the body, so it's difficult to keep a high level of fitness while setting full time. Jonathan Brandt has continued to improve as a climber while simultaneously running the setting crew at Climb Nashville, which is opening two new gyms next year. In this episode we discuss comment boxes, World Cup setting, simulators, and more.
Jonathan will be hiring routesetters! Hit him up at jonathan@climbnashville.com if you're interested.
Also, definitely check out the Hotter Than Chicken Bouldering Competition hosted by Climb Nashville every July. If you have both fingers AND a stomach of steel, this might just be your ticket to greatness!

Constance Lightner | Raising Them Right
Saturday Dec 23, 2017
Saturday Dec 23, 2017
Constance Lightner is, in my mind, a perfect representative for climbing parents. At a time when we're seeing a whole generation of young crushers becoming adults, the role of the parent has become more and more important. Connie didn't have a connection to climbing before her son, National Champion Kai Lightner, found the sport, but she's dove in headfirst and become an official mom for many of America's young superstars. She's one of the people that I make a point to see when I know we're in the same city. Every conversation is both entertaining and informative, and I walk away with jewels that I can apply to my own life, climbing, and business.

BOARD MEETINGS | I Wish I Knew Now What I Knew Then
Tuesday Dec 12, 2017
Tuesday Dec 12, 2017
No, that isn't a typo. It would be amazing if we kept all our attributes forever, but the reality is that we lose things, we forget things, and we just stop doing some of the things that made us good to begin with.
In this episode, Nate and I sit down to discuss the Top 3 things that we used to know and practice, and we wish we still adhered to.

Kelsey K. Sather | The Work Behind The Body
Thursday Nov 30, 2017
Thursday Nov 30, 2017
In this episode I sit down for an important conversation with wordsmith Kelsey K. Sather. We discuss her series of blog posts titled "The Work Behind the Body", a series of interviews with female outdoor athletes in Bozeman, Montana. Kelsey delves into the details of Body Image, and that being a topic I don't know much about, I was both excited and nervous to struggle through the conversation.
Thanks to the Bozeman community, and to Spire Climbing for allowing us to record this conversation live at their gym.
