The Duffel Shuffle podcast is kicking off a 7-episode series, covering all things Seven Summits. Popularized and first completed by Dick Bass, the 7 Summits List comprises the tallest mountain on each of the 7 continents of the world. These include, in order of height, Everest (Asia), Aconcagua (S. America), Denali (N. America), Kilimanjaro (Africa), Mount Elbrus (Europe), and Australia/Oceania (Mount Kosciuszko/Puncak Jaya). Adrian and Sam start with Aconcagua, the tallest mountain outside of the Himalaya, and the tallest peak in South America. Aconcagua, which was first climbed in 1897, sees approximately 3,000-4,000 attempts annually, with a success rate of roughly 30-40%. Considering the altitude, challenging weather, and incredibly short climbing season, Aconcagua is no walk in the park!- Nearing 23,000' or 7,000m in elevation, Aconcagua is an excellent place for climbers to test themselves at an altitude that isn't found anywhere else, outside of the Himalaya. - While the technical challenge on Aconcagua is quite low, each season brings many accidents and near misses due to unprepared climbers and challenging weather and wind. - Equipment choices on Aconcagua can be the difference between success and failure, and many cold-weather items are really only needed on the summit. Follow our podcast on Instagram @duffelshufflepodcast where you can learn more about us and our guests.

Together, Christina "Lusti" Lustenberger and Guillaume "Gee" Pierrel have teamed up for some of the most notable and impressive first descents in recent years. Lusti is an Association of Canadian Mountain Guides (ACMG) Ski Guide and professional skier. A career that started with alpine ski racing took Lusti all the way to the Olympics, but more than five knee surgeries later, a career pivot has taken her to ski some of the most impressive and challenging lines around the world. Gee, a french IFMGA Mountain Guide, got his start on skis through Nordic racing, but a love for the outdoors and the mountains brought him full circle. He too made a career pivot in his 20's, and what started out as ski instruction eventually led him to guide certification. Lusti and Gee join Sam and Adrian to talk about the partnership they've developed and the keys to their success in the mountains:- With their first big mountain experiences on New Zealand's Mt. Cook in October 2024, Lusti and Gee recount their first descent on the mountain. - Following their success in New Zealand, Lusti invited Gee to join her on a more-than-a-decades long project on Canada's Mt. Robson. - With the ultimate partnership developed, and technical skills that complement each other nicely, Lusti and Gee have the ultimate potential to push forward the sport of Ski Mountaineering. Lusti and Gee's latest film, Robson, debuts at the Banff Mountain Film Festival on November 1.

On his debut episode of the California Now Podcast, new host Josh Meyers dives head-first into the weird and wonderful folklore that stretches across this state from the hub of spiritual tourism in Mount Shasta to UFO sightings in the Mojave Desert. First up, Meyers chats with Zach O'Brien, founder of the digital publication Active NorCal. A Lemurian expert, O'Brien explains how Northern California's mystical landscape inspires imagination and legend, noting that “as soon as you get into these different areas of Northern California — be it Mount Shasta, the Redwoods, or Lake Tahoe — there's a palpable feeling, and so much can run wild in your imagination when you see these places.”The conversation then turns to one of the most enduring legends: Bigfoot. O'Brien also touches on Tahoe's “Tessie” and where travelers can explore these myths firsthand. Next, Meyers heads south to the Mojave Desert to chat with Ken Layne, host of the radio show The Desert Oracle. Together, they break down the haunting story of Yucca Man. “Yucca Man is one name for a phenomenon that's been experienced all over the world in wild, desolate places—eight feet tall, colorless, with glowing red eyes and a terrible roar,” Layne explains. Layne also recounts a chilling close encounter of his own on a stretch of desert highway. “I slowed down, stopped, and those lights just sat there behind me — then backed away at impossible speed, eight miles down the grade in seconds.” The region's otherworldly landmarks are also accounted for as Layne plots out some of more surreal spectacles tucked away behind the desert foothills, from the mysterious Giant Rock near Landers to the iconic Integratron in nearby Joshua Tree, a hand-built dome said (by some) to channel alien energy.

In his earlier years, Kevin dedicated his life to the craft of climbing. He lived in a van, chased adventure across the globe, and devoted every ounce of his energy to the pursuit of performance. During that chapter, he climbed up to 5.13b, established several major first ascents, and ticked over fifteen hundred routes. Climbing wasn't just something Kevin did — it was who he was. His identity was built around his achievements, his grades, and his ever-growing tick list… until one day, everything changed. After successfully rope-soloing Freerider on El Cap, a dream that would represent the pinnacle of accomplishment for many, Kevin found himself not elated — but empty. Confused. Frustrated. Wondering what it all meant. That moment became a turning point — a quiet reckoning that forced him to question why he climbed in the first place. It was from that reflection that a new path emerged. Today, Kevin is an AMGA-Certified Rock Guide and co-owner of Vertical Pursuits, a guiding service based out of Lake Tahoe. His focus has shifted from personal performance to mentorship — helping everyday climbers build competence, confidence, and a deeper connection with the craft.In our conversation, we use Kevin's climbing stories as a framework to explore some of climbing's bigger questions. We start with his rope-solo ascent of Freerider — and how that experience reshaped his identity. Then, we dig into a story from his time climbing with Brad Gobright, using it to dissect the psychology of risk management. From there, we travel back into Kevin's dirtbag years  and get to hear several increidble stories.  A bear encounter in the Wind River Range. A remote big-wall first ascent in the wilds of British Columbia. And his time on the iconic Andean peak Alpamayo. We wrap up by exploring Kevin's guiding philosophy — how he sees mentorship as one of the most underutilized tools in modern climbing, and how professional instruction can change the way we learn, grow, and stay alive in the mountains.This conversation is full of honesty, vulnerability, and hard-won wisdom. I walked away from it reflecting on my own relationship with climbing, and I think you might too.Watch The Climbing Majority on Youtube---Thanks to our sponsors!LIVSN DesignsCheckout their Ecotrek Overalls HEREUse Code "TCM15" At Checkout for 15% OFF Your OrderHot Chillys Performance Base LayersCheckout their Clima-Tek Base Layer Systems HEREUse Code "TCM15" At Checkout for 15% OFF Your Order---Get Access to Exclusive Episodes, Unlock Ad-Free Podcast, & MORE!---ResourcesBook Kevin's Guide ServicesKevin's Personal WebsiteKevin's IGKevin's Mountain Project Profile---

Athlete Summit's are a popular event among brands, but there's not much info about them for the average consumer, so we use this opportunity to deep dive and learn more. - With the Autumn season on Everest wrapping up, Sam and Adrian discuss the two special projects that took place this season; Tyler Andrews was unfortunately unsuccessful in two attempts to set the FKT on Everest while Andrzej Bargeil successfully submitted and skied off Everest, without supplemental oxygen, in his third attempt. - Despite a tricky season with short weather window's other fall 8,000ers in the Himalaya, many commercial operators had success on Manaslu, with fewer successful on Cho Oyu due to fewer climbers for political reasons. Upcoming, we'll be launching a 7 episode series to deep-dive into all aspects of each of the seven summits. We'll be following the format of Episode 36 “K2: The Savage Mountain” and unpacking all the important information about the tallest peaks on every continent.

Vista Rise Collective Joins Tahoe TAP to Discuss Rebrand, Advocacy & Community Impact The Tahoe TAP podcast — hosted by longtime locals and media personalities Mike Peron and Rob Galloway — returns with an intriguing new episode featuring Briana Vallejo of Vista Rise Collective, formerly known as Live Violence Free. After kicking off the show with a quick rundown of the latest Lake Tahoe happenings, the hosts welcomed Vallejo to talk about the organization's recent rebrand and ongoing mission to provide support, resources, and prevention programs for survivors of domestic and relational violence. Vallejo's connection to the work runs deep. She first joined the organization in 2016 as an Alpine Advocate while finishing her Bachelor of Social Work at the University of Nevada, Reno — all while holding the title of Miss Lake Tahoe in the Miss America Organization. Just months earlier, she was named 1st Runner-Up to Miss Nevada 2016. After nearly eight years serving the Alpine County satellite office, Vallejo transitioned to the South Lake Tahoe headquarters as Community Relations Coordinator. Today, she is a driving force behind Vista Rise Collective's outreach, education, and partnerships across the region. A survivor herself, Vallejo has used her story to spark change nationwide. Her TEDx Talk, “Preventing Teen Dating Violence from the Inside Out,” propelled her onto stages across the country as a sought-after keynote speaker. Outside of her advocacy work, she resides in Bear Valley with her husband — a local Fire Captain — and their two children, ages 4 and nearly 2. Listeners can tune in to hear more about Vista Rise Collective's expanded vision, upcoming community events, and how locals can get involved in supporting their mission.

EP295 In this episode of the Hard Parking Podcast, host Jhae Pfenning dives into Acura's recent decision to discontinue the ZDX electric SUV after less than two years on the market. He shares his thoughts on its design, GM collaboration, and why EV SUVs like the ZDX and Rivian often struggle to turn profits in a shifting automotive landscape. Then, special guest Dre Mullins joins for "Dre Day Volume 3," recounting their separate epic NSX road trips from Phoenix to Tacoma for NSXPO 2025. From scenic detours through Lake Tahoe, Napa Valley wineries, and Oregon's Redwoods to mishaps like speeding tickets, soaked Jordans, and near-misses with gas shortages, they swap hilarious stories of adventure, traffic woes, and group dynamics in high-performance Acura NSXs. After Dre's exit, Jhae wraps up with solo tales from the NSXPO—including track days at The Ridge, casino nights, and a nail-biting return trip —plus a teaser for next week's chat with Acura's Jonathon Rivers.

(00:02) Beauty of Golf Courses and Handicapping This chapter kicks off with a conversation about the beautiful September weather in Flagstaff and the scenic views golf courses offer, emphasizing the often-overlooked beauty of the sport's locations. We touch on the stunning golf courses across the United States and the Caribbean, including a nod to Lake Tahoe's splendor. Shifting gears, we discuss the challenges of betting on the Ryder Cup, highlighting the unpredictability of golf, especially in emotionally charged international competitions. Comparisons are made to betting on intense sports rivalries like Indiana vs. Purdue basketball or iconic football matchups such as the Iron Bowl, where unexpected outcomes make handicapping difficult. Despite the complexities, we note that NFL football tends to be more predictable.

(17:00) Defining Pitch and Chip Shots This chapter focuses on the complexities of golf terminology and how language can often lead to confusion, particularly when it comes to understanding the difference between pitching and chipping. We explore the nuances of these terms, emphasizing that a pitch is when the ball spends more time in the air than on the ground, typically requiring a higher lofted club like a sand or lob wedge. Conversely, a chip is characterized by a shorter flight and longer roll, often executed with a club like a nine iron. We also discuss how different clubs and motions can produce varied results, highlighting the importance of clear definitions in golf to prevent misunderstandings. Additionally, we touch on the common misconceptions about ball positioning during short shots and the flexibility in using various clubs for similar types of shots, illustrating how personal interpretation of terms like "chip" can impact a player's approach.

(26:15) Clearing Up Golf Language Confusion This chapter explores the nuances and confusion surrounding golf terminology, particularly focusing on the terms "chip" and "pitch." We break down the definitions of these terms based on the shot and the movement, emphasizing that a pitch typically involves a ball that flies farther in the air than it rolls, while a chip has more ground time than air time. We also discuss how these terms can be misleading when players use different clubs, and how jargon often complicates communication for beginners. By comparing golf jargon to a foreign language, we highlight the importance of clear communication in coaching. Our philosophy emphasizes using straightforward language to enhance understanding and improve performance, advocating for a teaching approach that eliminates confusion and makes golf accessible to everyone.

(38:16) Stabilizing Your Short Game Shots This chapter takes a close look at the intricacies of mastering short game shots in golf. We explore the importance of controlling the club and landing the ball accurately by maintaining a stable stance. Understanding how the length of the club and proper positioning can impact your game is emphasized, alongside the significance of achieving stability over focusing solely on swing techniques. We address common misconceptions, like always leaning towards the target, and stress that the primary goal should be getting the club under the ball effectively. The conversation highlights the importance of practicing basic stances rather than just complex shots, and how understanding what you're trying to achieve is crucial before focusing on how to achieve it. With humor and insight, we underscore the need for golfers to concentrate on the fundamentals for improved performance on the course.

We also explore the intricacies of golf, emphasizing the importance of mastering both high and low shots around the greens.

I learned the lake is divided by the california nevada border and we were on the Nevada side. About 20 attendees. We stayed at the retreat center Zephyr Pointe. Really fun event and very well organized for a first time event. I can only imagine how much work was involved. At the retreat Deb (meedah1) taught us how to make Japanese Short Rows. So easy! This is going to be my go to short row technique from now one Socks: Using Red Heart Heart and Sole in colorway Black Jack. Finished first sock and knitting on leg of the second sock. Mountain High: Heidi Kirrmaier. Using my handspun Flowers From My Garden. Cast on before heading to retreat but made a mistake. Suppose to cast on with larger needle, switch to smaller needle for nine rows of garter stitch, and then switch back to larger needle. I knit it all with the larger needle. Then got to the retreat and tried to do short rows. Oh boy, what a mistake. My counts were way off. Came home and unraveled the whole project and started over.  Deer Scarf: Ben and his roommates rescued a concrete deer lawn ornaments. I am making a red scarf for the deer to wear this holiday. Added fringe to beginning edge and knit about 48 inches. Weaving Studio: It's a work in progress.  Kelly's Projects Izzy Bears are finished and dropped off at school!  Weaving in ends on the Lace and Fade Boxy by Joji Locatelli. Using a merino silk handspun along with a skein of Sincere Sheep Vernal (silk/linen). Love the sweater, love the fit. Finished Combing the remaining CVM. I've brought it in for fall spinning. Natural Dyeing Experiments Toyon gave me yellow and orange depending on how long I soaked the leaves.  Dried tan oak leaves from a long ago camping trip and walnut leaves from the backyard gave me light brown so I'm letting it continue to soak this week.  Lambtown Festival Lambtown is October 4-5 (workshops start Oct 2) in Dixon, CA.  Home-A-Long October 1st to December 31st We haven't had a contest for knitters or crocheters in a really long time. It's time to make that right with a Home-a-Long. Make a home decor item in your craft of choice…knitting, crocheting, weaving, or any way “you can think of to play with string.” Some ideas for projects could be pillows, afghans, rugs, towels, teapot or mug cozies, potholders, dishcloths, bags. The sky's the limit!

In August of 1980 a bomb containing 1,000 pounds of dynamite was quietly delivered to Harvey’s, a casino and resort at Lake Tahoe. This kicked off a whirlwind caper that lasted 30 hours and ended up nearly demolishing the 11-story resort.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Marcus and Hunter recount their personal involvement in the recovery efforts during the tragic 4th of July flood in Kerrville, Texas, offering a raw glimpse into the resilience and service that define the TNQ spirit. But this episode is more than a recap. It's a reminder of what life can be when rooted in family, fun, patriotism, and service to others. The Crew” is moving onward to a fabulous line-up of guests for rest of the 2025 season.  Whether you've been with us from the beginning or are tuning in for the first time, welcome to the Team Never Quit Podcast—where stories of courage, resilience, and never quitting take center stage. In this episode you will hear: • There's some age where you just shouldn't do [Roller Coasters] anymore and I'm definitely past that age. (3:06) • What is it about things that cause you pain. “He's got horrible [sickness]” – let's try that. (5:00) • [What is a “never again” experience that you've done and absolutely hated?] “I thought it was scuba diving, but once I got in the water in Hawaii, I actually loved it a lot.” (5:54) • We both just started a workout routine. (7:05) • Marcus and Melanie share highlights of their Hawaii trip, including Pearl Harbor, Diamondhead, Waikiki, and Trident Adventures, where they literally throw your ass out of the helicopter into the ocean. (8:20)  • On Memorial Day we went to the Danny Dietz Memorial Roping in Decatur, Texas. (11:43) • The Luttrell's stop in Las Vegas had many very cool stops. Tom Brady & Jim Gray opened a sports museum in the Fontainebleau Hotel.

Texans: You all are the best people on the planet of Earth.” (26:38) • When the flood came through the mountain, it hit Mystic at the headwater, but the river is 120 miles. It was complete devastation from the beginning to the end. (27:35) • The gamechanger – the ones that changed the dynamic of everything were the excavator drivers. (29:26) • One of the most difficult things was the search. You gotta understand the situation we were in. You're looking for something hoping you don't find. (34:17) If you drive through Houston, you'll see green ribbons on gates and mailboxes and trees. It's for all the lives lost. (39:25) • When you lose your child, that's the hardest burden that can be strapped on you. (39:39) • Axe went to the Naval Academy Baseball and Leadership Camp. (45:02) • We attended the congressional baseball game. If you ever wanted a real opportunity to yell at your congressman, go to the baseball game.
