Jim Bacarro and Saab Magalona started one of the first local podcasts back in 2018.

Jim and Saab may be the ones doing the talking but they definitely make their listeners feel heard.

These comments were from people from all races, ethnicities, creeds, and nationalities who had felt “othered”. Laura beautifully inter ...

What It's Like To Summit Mt. Everest--Reprise

We're revisiting a popular episode from our archives this week!
It's not easy to get to the top of the world. It takes a lot of training and determination, a willingness to endure pain and suffering--and no small amount of luck. Even the most prepared climber can confront a deadly avalanche or fatal turn in the weather.
Our guest, Jeff Gottfurcht, was the first person ever to summit the tallest mountain in the world--Mt. Everest--with rheumatoid arthritis. Hear his incredible tales of ten years of training (including climbing all of the world's biggest mountains); what a climber eats, sleeps, and wears on Everest (you'll never believe Jeff's diet!); what happened on his summit ascent in a -20 degree windstorm; and what it's like to sit at the highest point on earth.
Jeff also shares the lessons that have shaped his life that he learned while he was "dancing with fate" on Mt. Everest.
