By Land Podcast
The By Land Podcast is a personal record of what I’m learning in the outdoors.
Some episodes are practical field notes focused on skills, gear, and lessons learned, while others are deeper reflections that explore my evolving perspectives. And some are conversations with people from different backgrounds to learn from their experiences.
At its core, this podcast is about learning through experience and sharing the process along the way.
Take what’s useful, leave what’s not, and make it your own.
