Ken and Betsey review over five years of Beach Talks as Ken posts the podcast's 400th episode. Three friends check in to celebrate -  Darcy McKenzie, Osahon Obazuaye, and Ken Fong. Betsey, a Chicago resident, shares some of her experience this month spending three delightful weeks in Tuscon - the Arizona Desert. Ken and Betsey then compare notes on the new administration's first two weeks in power. It's been a firehose of headlines, including those controversial cabinet appointments, an avalanche of executive orders, bizarre explanations (for Southern California fires and then those terrible plane crashes), targeted attacks on D.E.I., inflationary tariffs, trade wars, and plans to absorb Canada, Mexico, Panama, Greenland, and now Gaza under America's domain. Elon Musk takes the axe to congressionally mandated programs. Oh - don't forget - it's now “The Gulf of America” and “Mt. McKinley.” Predictions of the imposition of the feared Project 2025 (which the then-candidate for President claimed he knew nothing about) turn out to be way understated. Turns out, it was a detailed script for these first two weeks. The President and his supporters said they would “drain the swamp,” but it looks more like Steve Bannon's colorful prediction - that on Day One, Trump would “flood the zone with sh*t.” Ken and Betsey commit to keep this podcast and their Beach Talks going - we need each other now more than ever.Become a Patron | Ken's Substack PageSupport the show

In today's episode, Liz explains the latest theory about why President Joe Biden didn't pardon himself. Is he going to take the fall for Hunter and the rest of the rotten Bidens? Then, Liz explains why deporting illegal aliens is the Christian thing to do, no matter what leftists say. Liz also reveals the brilliance of President Donald Trump's “shock and awe” campaign and why the GOP's reaction to it shows that he is 100% in control of the Republican Party. And Trump has had a whirlwind of a first week — but do you know why he changed the name from Denali to Mt. McKinley? Why is he so concerned with the Gulf of America? Is he serious about retaking the Panama Canal and buying Greenland? Well, yes, Trump is, and it all has to do with Russia and China.

In this podcast episode with Sean Swarner, you will be inspired to never give up hope. At the age of 13 and 16, Sean was diagnosed with 2 different forms of cancer and was given a prognosis of 14 days to live. He defied all odds, and with his never give-up attitude, became the first cancer survivor to climb the highest elevation on all the 7 summits: Mt Everest, Mt McKinley, Aconcagua, Kilimanjaro, Cartensz Pyramid, Elbrus, and Vinson. He also, trekked the North and South Poles and finished the Hawaii Ironman, all with one functioning lung. He carries a flag on his exhibitions with names of fellow cancer survivors and says they inspire him to keep following his dreams. He is a true humanitarian and a beacon of light and hope. For more information on Sean, go to seanswarner.com, and to add a name to the HOPE flag that will be carried to the summit of Mt. Kilimanjaro, this July, go to kilihope.com.

Nigel Vardy tells us about growing up in the Belper, Derbyshire, his early forays into the hills and his explorations and adventures culminating in his fateful trip to Mt McKinley in 1999 where he suffered severe frostbite and nearly lost his life.  Mike and Nigel go on to discuss his adventures since, re-discovering climbing and mountaineering, writing his 2 books and recently being elected as President of Buxton MRT.Support the Show.

Did I meet an Alaskan reality TV star in the airport on my way to Alaska and did he make our trip incredible? You're goddamn right we did. And did I make him cry? You're goddamn right I did ;) But I swear it wasn't on purpose. It's actually a crazy intense story he tells in this full disclosure convo. When life gives you lemons you just gotta make some freakin lemonade. From a diner in Wasilla AK, on 3 hours sleep, 7 cups coffee, smelling a hott mess, straight from dogsledding, nervous and sweating though my Carhartts...this is our little convo of me and my new favorite Alaskan, Marty Raney.

In 2017, Jeff Davis Peak (California) and Jefferson Davis Peak (Nevada) began the process of shedding their names. In this episode, we journey through the bureaucratic network that names places in the US, and try to get a handle on what it means to name a place.

For many climbers, Mt. McKinley presents the alluring chance to reach the top of our continent. But the dangers involved in doing so are very real and sometimes very sudden.

Episode 2 features an interview with Chhiring Sherpa, a revered climber and guide who has summited Mount Everest 16 times, but also works at Honey Stinger. Our second segment features an in-depth interview with Kim Hess, a Hive Gold athlete who’s very close to becoming only the thirteenth woman to complete the Adventurers Grand Slam—that’s climbing the Seven Summits (the highest peak on each of the seven continents) plus traversing to the North and the South poles. Kim began this quest eight years ago, and she’s had some pretty extreme highs and lows, including a fall and emergency evacuation from Mt McKinley. She talks openly about all of it, as well as the challenges of being a woman in a traditionally male realm.

Gavin Marshall, VK2BAX Born in Nelson New Zealand I re-ignited my interest in the outdoors approx. 15 years ago trekking in the Tararua Ranges north of Wellington, New Zealand. And from that simple beginning I've been pursuing outdoor adventure opportunities when and wherever I can.Several years as a volunteer in the Wellington Search and Rescue organisation, a period as the National SAR Treasurer and also time training a wilderness search dog ensured I maximised my time in the outdoors. In January 2009 I moved to Sydney with my wife and son where I renewed my involvement with the local Search and Rescue organisation. I'm currently a member of the NSW Bush Walkers Rescue Squad and Vertical Rescue team. In 2011 two close friends and I attempted an independent climb of Mt McKinley in Alaska. After a week of holding out in camp 3 for weather on the summit to clear we were forced to descend. I'm not someone to take defeat easily and that descent became the trigger for me to set a personal goal of climbing the 7 summits. To date I've reached the summit of - * Mt Kosciusko, Australia (2,228m) * Mt Kilimanjaro, Africa (6,895m) * Mt Aconcagua, South America (6,982m) * Mt Elbrus, Europe (5,642m) In May 2014 I made a return to Mt McKinley. Once again I was knocked back by the weather. I reached high camp at 17,200 feet before once again being forced to descend. 2014 has been a busy year for me, 10 months off work to travel and continue chasing my 7 summits goal along with a period of volunteer work in Kampala, Uganda. I'm now back in Sydney, using my skills as an Accountant and Project Manager to install ERP business solutions. As fate would have it I have secured a role on a project based in Port Moresby - Papua New Guinea. I'm sure there's an adventure to be had somewhere in the mountains of PNG!

we talked about payback, and stuffAlso, since the Call of Cthulhu game was not recorded I will type out a summary below.see, right below!  The year is 1931, and our heroes were mountain climbers in a race to the summit of Mt McKinley. There were three teams: Blank and Sunsweet, IBeforeE and StrikingYak, and Oatgan and myself. There was prize money involved, because the United States government needed heroes to inspire people during the Great Depression.  The night before climbing, they discovered a local team of three brothers had set out before them and already had a day's head start, not to be outdone by outsiders. There were two main paths up the mountain: the difficult climb and the easier climb. Oatgan and I decided on the more difficult climb while everyone else took the easy path.  Minutes into our climb, we encountered one of the brothers. He was crazed and snowblind, attacking anything that moved, including us. He was taken down with a rifle shot, and we were unfazed - hey, we rolled well. The rest of the climb before we reached the cloud line was mostly uneventful, except for Blank and Sunsweet finding a dead body. It was the second brother, his head being attached by a thread and one arm completely missing. IBeforeE and StrikingYak decided this would be a great opportunity to get ahead of Blank and Sunsweet. The real fun started at the overhang and Wickersham's Wall. We all encountered VERTIGINOUS HORRORS!! Nine foot worms the size of tree trunks that scale mountains with nightmarish speed were now on the hunt. I took one out by digging my axe into it, jumping off the mountain, and letting go of the axe while praying my partner Oatgan had anchored the rope. At Wickersham's Wall the climbers were met with a Vertiginous Horror, and then a second, and then a third... The teams split up in an effort to not get eaten or knocked off the mountain.  As we are all nearing the top, Oatgan and I encounter the beginnings of a storm. I succumb to the elements and collapse, forcing Oatgan to carry my unconscious body to the nearest shelter, which was a nearby cave with a totally-not-suspicious blue light emanating from it. On the other side of the mountain, IBeforeE and StrikingYak find dozens of the Vertiginous Horrors and IBeforeE gets the idea to cause an avalanche and anchor himself to try and clear the way. Somehow, this works and they find their way to a totally-not-suspicious cave.   Inside the cave, shit happens.-Yak kills me with a grenade, while Oatgan sneaks away- Blank and Sunsweet enter the cave last, and discover Niel and Yak covered in my gore- Oatgan, after sneaking back, shoots IBeforeE and blows his head clean off, and reaches the summit first- The last brother is found at the summit, his wrists slit and his body frozen.- I forget why, but Blank stabs Sunsweet in the throat- Yak uses IBeforeE's corpse like a sled and rides down the mountain and makes it to the bottom first, claiming prize money and fame. I did not prepare for this, but fuck it I can roll with it.- Blank and Oatgan partner up because they are the last two people left on the mountain, so they investigate the mysterious blue light inside the cave.  Inside the cave, they find the walls and ceiling absolutely covered with the vertiginous horrors and in the center of the room is an obsidian obelisk above a pool of what looks like motor oil. They decide to dive into the pool, and come out on the other side. In front of them is an alien world populated entirely by the vertiginous horrors. Out of place stars and the planet Earth are in the night sky, and there appears to be no discernible way to get back to the mountain.Hope you enjoyed the read and sorry you couldn't listen. This was definitely the most fun session yet!

Have you ever struggled to take the next step in a task because you felt that you were out of your safety (comfort) zone? Having the personal courage to take action can be very challenging when you fear the unknown. However, sometimes we don't put our next steps into perspective. Nigel Vardy's story can help. Nigel is a mountaineer, motivational speaker and author. One who suffered severe frostbite whilst climbing on Mt McKinley in Alaska, which led to the full amputation of the toes on both of his feet and the majority of his fingers. “My niece says I have feet like a teddy bear,” he laughed. Today, he defies logic and is still climbing even achieving a British first climbing the highest peaks on the world's seven largest islands despite his injuries and a fear for heights. Join us to find out more about Nigel's story and his views on courage and overcoming the fear barrier and the many lessons he has learned during his inspirational career.

The Amateur Traveler talks to Joe Bickley of Alaska Backcountry Consulting about traveling to Alaska, particularly the interior and back country. Alaska is a bug state and Joe lives in the center of it near Fairbanks but at the northern end of the Alaskan road system. Joe gives us some directions on places to go to see Alaska’s vistas and encounter its wildlife. He takes us above the tree line at Denali National Park (aka Mt McKinley) which is not quite half the size of the state of Rhode Island. At that Denali is not even the largest National Park in Alaska. That honor goes to Wrangell-St. Elias. Alaska also has the largest National Forest which is Tongass National Forest. Joe takes us to one of his favorite spots off the Denali “highway”. He also directs us down to the Kenai Peninsula known for great fishing and also to the town of Homer with its artist culture. Learn what some Alaskans call those bells that a tenderfoot might wear to scare off bears.

A "virtually" clear day in the Alaska Range gives us the opportunity to fly completely around Mt. McKinley, taking in the magnificent glaciers, the stunning North Face of the mountain, the breathtaking Ruth Gorge, and the grand snowy peaks of Denali National Park. Lots of climbing history and geology. (Verging on the educational, but hey, can't there be great informational moments?)
