Podcast appearances and mentions of Yvon Chouinard

Parmi les questions qui m'obsèdent, il y a celle du rôle et des missions de l'entreprise. Quand j'étais en école de commerce, on nous enseignait que l'entreprise avait pour seule mission la maximisation des profits pour l'actionnaire. C'était il y a quelques années (décades...), mais je ne crois pas que le fonds de l'enseignement ait beaucoup changé. Dans les entreprises que je fréquente, on parle de responsabilité... mais, quand l'heure des choix arrivent, la maximisation de la rentabilité prime bien souvent sur toute autre considération. Peut-on rêver d'un autre rôle pour l'entreprise ? Peut-elle (doit-elle) soutenir la nature, le vivant et les liens sociaux ? Doit-elle faire sa part et participer à préserver un monde vivable et fraternel ?Dans ce nouvel épisode de Demain N'attend Pas, je reçois ISABELLE SUSINI, dirigeante de 1% for the Planet France, le mouvement qui infuse depuis trois décennies un autre récit de l'entreprise.Isabelle a choisi très tôt de bâtir sa carrière sur la conviction que l'entreprise peut servir la société autant que ses actionnaires. Elle démarre sa carrière dans des grandes entreprises agroalimentaires et décide rapidement de lui donner une inflexion pour avoir un impact positif sur le monde. Elle rejoint alors des entreprises engagées, Yves Rocher d'abord, puis, le modèle en la matière, Patagonia. Patagonia, l'exemple qui inspireAu fil de notre échange, Isabelle revient sur ce qui a rendu Patagonia si singulier... notamment ce choix, jugé “fou” par beaucoup : reverser chaque année 1% du chiffre d'affaires (pas des bénéfices !) pour soutenir des associations de terrain. Une décision simple, coûteuse, ... et éminemment féconde.Yvon Chouinard, le fondateur de Patagonia, a voulu faire de ce choix un mouvement ouvert à toutes les entreprises. Il l'a appelé 1% for the Planet et déployé dans de nombreux pays. Ou en est le mouvement aujourd'hui ?900 entreprises ont rejoint 1% for the Planet France et reversent 14 millions d'euros chaque année à des associations de protection de l'environnement. Isabelle incarne ce capitalisme responsable, où le mécénat ne vient plus “après coup”,mais devient une part intégrante de la stratégie. Elle nous parle de la façon dont cet engagement modifie toute la culture d'entreprise et le rapport au travail des salariés.Ce que j'aimerais que vous reteniez de cet épisode :Donner plus de sens à sa vie professionnelle, c'est souvent capitaliser sur le chemin professionel qu'on a déjà accompli. Le mouvement 1% for the Planet n'est pas un simple don à une association. Il vient questionner le rôle de l'entreprise, interroger le partage de la valeur, et travailler la question du sens au travail. S'émerveiller, c'est la première marche vers la mise en mouvement (et elle est à notre portée à tous !)

Hay una regla en las inversiones que dice que cuanto más aburrido el negocio, mayor su rentabilidad. La gente busca las cotizadas más sexys para invertir allí su dinero pero las empresas de toda la vida siguen ofreciendo buenas oportunidades. Son negocios ocultos, en los que nadie se fija, pero que resultan esenciales para el correcto funcionamiento de todo. Ascensores, extintores, transporte de mercancías. Esas pymes no siempre tienen un acceso eficiente al capital y es por eso Gerard García fundó Deale, con la misión de conectar los buenos negocios con el dinero de los inversores. Son todos ellos negocios que quieren mantenerse operativos, en un contexto en el que muchos fundadores no tienen un relevo generacional claro. El K177 con Raul Gil trató sobre negocios honestos. Los de Gerard además de honestos son aburridos. Quizá aburridos no es la palabra, pero invertir allí no suena tan excitante como decir que eres accionista de Tesla o Nvidia. Lo importante, en cualquier caso, es que sean rentables.Kapital es posible gracias a sus colaboradores:⁠⁠El Proyecto K⁠⁠. Despide a tu asesor financiero.⁠La propuesta de El Proyecto K es que puedes llevarte tú mismo tu propia cartera. No es difícil, si te cuentan antes cómo hacerlo. Tu dinero estará protegido de la inflación siempre que sigas una estrategia. Pablo y yo damos las explicaciones y ofrecemos el acompañamiento, pero eres tú quien al final del día tiene que mandar la orden de compra. Esta es la gran barrera. La teoría es para todos fácil de entender, es la ejecución lo que genera los problemas. Los peligros raramente surgen en el correcto diseño de la cartera, sino en la decisión de mantener las posiciones a lo largo del tiempo. El taller, por encima de lo técnico, quiere profundizar en la mentalidad de los buenos inversores. Trabajamos la parte psicológica de las finanzas para hacer el viaje más llevadero. Porque de nada sirve que ganes al mercado si te vas a la cama sufriendo por tu dinero.

Plastic has infiltrated every facet of our lives. It is essentially inescapable. And while plastic is now a normalized material that we interact with every day, the health impacts are becoming harder and harder to ignore. The Plastic Detox, a new documentary now available on Netflix, examines how much plastic is impacting our health and whether it is possible to detox our bodies from continued exposure. It combines the science behind these health concerns with real human experiences for a compelling story about human resilience and the solutions to a few of the problems plastic has plagued us with. In episode 218 of the Outdoor Minimalist podcast, I had the pleasure of sitting down with one of the film's producers and directors, Josh Murphy, to discuss what went into making the film and how stories like these can help us better understand the plastic pollution crisis while inspiring us to take action in our own lives. Josh Murphy is an Emmy Award–winning filmmaker, director, producer, and writer whose work focuses on character-driven stories at the intersection of humanity and the environment. His films often explore climate, conservation, and human resilience through compelling storytelling.His credits include producing the Tribeca-winning film Here Alone, co-producing The Push, contributing to Alex Gibney's documentary The Inventor, and directing the acclaimed documentary Artifishal, commissioned by Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard. Most recently, he won an Emmy for the Netflix series You Are What You Eat: A Twins Experiment and co-directed and produced the Netflix documentary The Plastic Detox. Before entering filmmaking, he trained as a natural resource scientist and fisheries biologist, inspired early on by Jacques Cousteau's blend of exploration, storytelling, and environmental advocacy.Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/outdoor.minimalist.book/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.theoutdoorminimalist.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@theoutdoorminimalistBuy Me a Coffee: ⁠⁠⁠https://buymeacoffee.com/outdoorminimalist⁠⁠⁠Listener Survey: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://forms.gle/jd8UCN2LL3AQst976⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠------------------Josh "Bones" MurphyIMDB: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3096202/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/josh-bones-murphy-92313113/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joshbonesmurphy/The Plastic Detox: https://www.netflix.com/title/82074244

The Amazon is the world's biggest tropical rainforest, spanning across nine countries in South America. It is a major source of biodiversity and plant life, containing around one tenth of the world's known species and over a billion acres of dense forest. But for decades now, this vital resource has been under threat. Nearly 20 percent of the Amazon forest has been lost or degraded. This is largely due to deforestation, where people cut down trees and clear land for other, oftentimes more profitable purposes. A significant aspect of reducing deforestation is making it financially viable to keep the forest. But how?   In our season finale of the Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women, we focus on efforts to make supply chains more sustainable: from the source to the end product. We start in the Amazon, where we look at ways to profit from the rainforest without destroying it. And we end up in the boardroom to hear from the president of the outdoor apparel brand Patagonia. First, we hear from Maria Jose “Chochi” Iturralde, executive director of the nonprofit Fundacion Pachaysana. She helped launch Fundacion Pachaysana, based in Ecuador, to provide financial incentives for local people in the Amazon to preserve their forest and their land, such as through regenerative agriculture. This is part of a new economic model called “the bioeconomy,” which uses renewable biological resources, processes, and innovations to produce food, materials, and energy. Then, we hear from leaders at Natura, a global beauty company that sources many of their products from the Amazon rainforest. We speak with Charmian Love, global ambassador at Natura, and Fernanda Rezende Facchini, Natura's senior sustainability and procurement leader in Latin America, about their bioeconomy work in the Amazon. Finally, host Zainab Salbi sits down with Jenna Johnson, President of Patagonia. The California-based outdoor apparel brand was founded in 1973 by Yvon Chouinard, a rock climber and adventurer who cares deeply about the environment. Patagonia's mission has always been to “save our home planet.” Their current president Jenna Johnson shares how fulfilling that mission means meticulously scrutinizing every step of their supply chain. The Hidden Economics of Remarkable Women is a podcast from Foreign Policy, supported this season by Daughters for Earth. Guests interviewed: Jenna Johnson, President of Patagonia Maria Jose “Chochi” Iturralde, Executive Director of Fundacion Pachaysana Charmian Love, Global Ambassador at Natura Fernanda Rezende Facchini, Senior Sustainability and Procurement Specialist at Natura in Latin America Recommended reading: Foreign Policy Analytics: Protecting Biodiversity and Driving Development Through Women's Leadership Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Noel Andrews discuss:Prioritizing others to drive long-term successDelegation as a lever for higher-value workHiring and managing support effectivelyShifting from doing to thinking as a leader Key Takeaways:Sustainable business growth comes from helping team members, clients, and referral partners achieve their goals first. Celebrate client milestones, develop your team, and make introductions without expecting immediate returns. Focusing outward builds trust, loyalty, and lasting relationships that compound over time.Lawyers often get stuck handling admin, marketing, and operations alongside legal tasks. Listing tasks to delegate frees you to focus on work only you can do and grow the firm strategically. Delegation transforms busywork into leverage and career impact.Start with clarity: define tasks first, then map them to a role, location, and level of support. Remote talent in regions like Eastern Europe or South Africa can provide high-quality work at a lower cost. Clear KPIs, meaningful projects, and trust are more effective than micromanaging hours.Resist the urge to control every detail; hire capable assistants to own outcomes. Delegating at a high level frees time for strategic thinking and future planning. Leaders must balance action with observation to maximize impact and firm growth. "Every single time I've ever done the next stage for me, or the next step in really investing in supporting my team, particularly in their personal lives, the results are just huge." —  Noel Andrews"Profit is what happens when you get everything else right." — Yvon Chouinard, Founder of Patagonia Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again. Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

Il n'avait rien.Juste une planche de surf, une corde d'escalade… et aucune envie de faire du business.Yvon Chouinard voulait grimper, pas diriger.Et pourtant, il a fondé Patagonia, l'une des marques les plus puissantes et respectées du monde.Comment un marginal est devenu un milliardaire… sans jamais chercher à le devenir ? Pourquoi a-t-il tout lâché à la fin ? Qui est cet homme qui a osé affronter Donald Trump et qui a changé les règles du business ?

Patagonia is worth billions. But founder Yvon Chouinard never wanted the title of billionaire. From his days as a dirtbag climber to his reluctant role as CEO, Chouinard built one of the world's most influential outdoor brands — then shocked the business world by giving it all away. Author David Gelles whose biography of Chouinard "Dirtbag Billionaire" is out now, joins The Excerpt to talk about Chouinard's unconventional life, his fight to align business with values, and what his legacy means for capitalism today.

This month marks ten full years of my bimonthly book-recommendations project—a decade of weird little paragraphs about the books that grab my scattered attention. Whether you've been here since the beginning or signed up five minutes ago, thank you. I'm still baffled anyone reads these things, but I'm grateful all the same. To mark the occasion, I recorded a late-night solo episode from The Shed, diving deeper into each of my September & October picks: why I chose them, what stayed with me, and the sometimes-unexpected lessons I gleaned from each of them. Or you could just describe it as a guy sitting in his garden shed talking to himself. Your choice. You can read all of the recommendations here, or, if you're clamoring to receive more emails, you can sign up for the list here.

Recently, Rob dedicated a fall weekend to traveling to the Catskills to fish and conduct an in-person interview with Nick Lyons. Nick's works in writing and publishing have played a crucial role in shaping Rob's lifelong passion for fishing. When Rob launched this podcast in 2010, he was significantly inspired by the writings of both Nick Lyons and John Geirach. Rob has emulated Lyons' authenticity alongside Geirach's "trout bum" way of life as he seeks to educate others about fly fishing and share captivating tales. This moment provides Rob with the opportunity to connect with Nick in his sunroom in Woodstock, NY, exchanging stories about his fishing experiences, from his very first catch to his last catch and those he shared the water with along the way. Nick recants tales involving notable figures like Ed Van Put, Lefty Kreh, Mark Sosin, Tom Rosenbauer, Sparse Grey Hackle, Charles Ritz, Lee Wulff, Art Flick, Vince Marinaro, William Humphrey, Craig Matthews, Yvon Chouinard, Tom McGuane, and Al Troth. Some of these anecdotes have yet to be shared publicly. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode, we explore the unconventional story of Yvon Chouinard, the “dirtbag” climber who became the founder of Patagonia and ultimately gave away his billion-dollar company to protect its mission. In conversation with David Gelles—New York Times journalist and author of Dirtbag Billionaire—we dig into the paradoxes of success, the power of awareness, and the ongoing tension between principle and profit. We discuss how Chouinard's love for the outdoors led him to create climbing gear out of necessity, and how his refusal to ignore the negative impact of his products shaped Patagonia's legacy of environmental stewardship and values-driven leadership.We reflect on how meaningful work often reveals itself not through grand visions, but through paying attention to the patterns and tensions within our everyday actions. The episode challenges leaders and creatives to reconsider what it means to act with integrity and to recognize the marks—both good and bad—we leave through our work. Chouinard's story offers a blueprint for leading with conviction, making hard calls in service of a greater purpose, and understanding that values build momentum over time.Five Key Learnings from the Episode:Calling is Revealed, Not Found: Purpose often unfolds through the work we're already doing, showing itself in the problems we care about and the frustrations we can't ignore.Principle Over Profit: True leadership is measured not by stated values, but by the sacrifices made when those values clash with financial incentives—as shown when Patagonia prioritized environmental impact over sales.Awareness Precedes Change: Staying attentive to the second- and third-order effects of our decisions is essential for creating lasting positive impact and avoiding unintended harm.Success Requires Restraint: Responsible growth means not chasing expansion at all costs, but deliberately throttling progress to ensure alignment with core mission and sustainable practices.Legacy is Built Through Consistent Integrity: Values-driven decisions compound over time, creating an enduring legacy that outlasts individual achievements or wealth.Get full interviews and bonus content for free!

When Patagonia founder Yvon Chouinard first got into business, all he wanted to do was make better equipment for himself and his fellow “dirtbags.” Over 50 years, he built Patagonia into a global outdoor retailer with a sustainable mission and ensured that the company's profits will go toward protecting the environment for years to come. In his latest book, “Dirtbag Billionaire. How Yvon Chouinard Built Patagonia, Made A Fortune, and Gave it All Away,” New York Times reporter David Gelles chronicles how Chouinard set new industry standards for sustainable production and charitable giving. Kara talks with Gelles about how Chouinard's version of conscious capitalism compares with that of tech billionaires, what to make of shifting US corporate environmental and social responsibility, and how artificial intelligence could affect the climate in the future.

Vincent helped develop The Footprint Chronicles, the company's interactive website that outlines the social and environmental impact of its products, The Common Threads Partnership, an initiative launched by Patagonia in collaboration with eBay, aiming to reduce environmental impact by promoting sustainable consumption habits; and Patagonia Books, the publishing branch of Patagonia, that produces high‑quality books aligned with the brand's mission of environmental stewardship, adventure, and activism.

Vincent is also a visiting fellow at the Yale School of Management, and also a poet whose work has appeared in Best American Poetry, a prominent annual anthology that showcases a curated selection of contemporary American poems.In this episode, Vincent reveals:- What changes when people are able to bring their deepest values to work- The minimum responsibility businesses must uphold in today's times- What shifts when we see responsibility as a right, not a burden

Burnout recovery isn't about doing less — it's about becoming whole. In this episode, discover why slowing down doesn't mean falling behind, and how repetition—not intensity—rewires your identity for peace that lasts.If you've been wondering why life feels slow when you've done “everything right,” this episode of The Recalibration is your reminder that becoming takes time.High-capacity humans often link momentum to meaning — but neuroscience tells a different story. Through the process of myelination, your brain strengthens through repetition, not intensity. Transformation that lasts is built through faithful practice, not frantic progress.In this episode, Julie Holly unpacks how Identity-Level Recalibration (ILR) helps you shift from adrenaline-driven achievement to anchored peace. You'll explore what happens when your nervous system learns that stillness isn't punishment — it's permission.Drawing from the story of Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, Julie illustrates how restraint and patience created a legacy of integrity. Chouinard's slow decisions built an ecosystem of impact, not just a brand — reminding us that speed builds empires, but patience builds foundations.You'll also learn how the faithful repetition of new identity patterns creates both neurological and spiritual stability — a kind of “soul myelination” that keeps you steady when the world speeds up.This isn't another productivity hack or mindset shift. It's The Recalibration — the root-level realignment that makes every other tool work again.Micro Recalibration: Ask yourself: “What area of my life needs faithful repetition more than fresh intensity?” Then write this truth where you'll see it daily:“I'm not behind — I'm being built through repetition.”Because becoming isn't fast — it's faithful.If this episode gave you language you've been missing, please rate and review the show so more high-capacity humans can find it.

Yvon Chouinard needs no introduction. The founder of Patagonia, pioneer of clean climbing, co-founder of 1% for the Planet, and lifelong advocate for simplicity and wildness, he's one of the world's most influential environmental leaders. Now in his mid-80s, Yvon continues to live, work, and fish by the same principles that have guided him since his dirtbag climbing days: live simply, take responsibility for your impact, and keep finding meaning through deep, direct engagement with nature. His newest book, “Pheasant Tail Simplicity: Recipes and Techniques for Successful Fly Fishing,” distills those philosophies into one of his lifelong passions—fly fishing. Co-authored with his longtime fishing buddies Craig Mathews and Mauro Mazzo, Pheasant Tail Simplicity begins as a guide to tying and fishing with only pheasant-tail flies, and becomes a case study in creativity, restraint, and how simplifying our pursuits can reconnect us to what really matters. You don't have to be a hardcore angler to glean important lessons from the book—its insights can be applied to almost any part of life. In this conversation, Yvon and I start out talking about fly fishing, of course—but we quickly veer into broader terrain: how constraints can become a path to freedom, how business can be a demonstration of ethics, and how pessimism can serve as a productive form of realism. He shares a ton of amazing stories—learning to fish with a tenkara master in Italy, teaching Crow Reservation children to fly fish, founding 1% for the Planet, why rebellious personalities make the best entrepreneurs, his love of regenerative agriculture, and why he still believes that action—no matter how small—is the cure for depression. It's a wide-ranging, funny, and wise discussion with someone who's spent a lifetime proving that the process is far more important than the outcome. During our conversation, you'll hear us reference several of Patagonia's pioneers—Kris Tompkins, Rick Ridgeway, and Vincent Stanley—all of whom I've interviewed here on Mountain & Prairie. If you'd like to listen to those episodes or check out their books, there are links in the episode notes. A huge thank-you to Patagonia, Patagonia Books, Patagonia Fly Fishing, and of course Yvon for the opportunity to have this conversation. Like many of you listeners, I've been deeply influenced by Yvon's work and worldview, so it was a dream come true to sit down with him for a long, relaxed conversation. Be sure to check out “Pheasant Tail Simplicity” and the many other excellent titles from Patagonia Books.

Legendary rock climber Yvon Chouinard - an outdoorsman who was so uninterested in material possessions he would sleep in the dirt - made billions as the founder of clothing apparel company Patagonia. 

In this episode of the podcast, we sit down with AAC Librarian Natalie Siciliano to chat about a fascinating part of the American Alpine Club's history: the days when you used to have to apply to be a member of the Club. The application membership system lasted for nearly 90 years–which means we have extensive records in our archives that feature the climbing resumes and recommendation letters from thousands of climbing's most fascinating characters. In this episode, we dive into the how and why of this application system, why it got dismantled, and what membership at the Club looks like now. Plus, we take a look at some highlights from the applications of legends like Lynn Hill, Yvon Chouinard, Ichiro Yoshizawa, and more.

Patagonia is worth billions. But founder Yvon Chouinard never wanted the title of billionaire. From his days as a dirtbag climber to his reluctant role as CEO, Chouinard built one of the world's most influential outdoor brands — then shocked the business world by giving it all away. Author David Gelles whose biography of Chouinard "Dirtbag Billionaire" is out now, joins The Excerpt to talk about Chouinard's unconventional life, his fight to align business with values, and what his legacy means for capitalism today.Have feedback on the show?

Patagonia has always been different. While so many companies lose their way when profits come before people, the planet, or even their own products, Patagonia continues to stay true to its values.In today's episode of The Eric Ries Show, I speak with journalist David Gelles, author of Dirtbag Billionaire, his new book about founder Yvon Chouinard. We explore how Chouinard built Patagonia with an ethos of quality and conservation, how he resisted the corrupting pull of profit-at-all-costs, and why he ultimately gave the company away to protect its mission.We talk about what Patagonia's story reveals about the possibility of building ethical companies that not only survive but thrive. And we make the case for putting strong protections in place from the very beginning, so that a company's purpose can endure long after its founder is gone.—Where to find David Gelles:• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidgelles/• X: https://x.com/dgelles• Substack: https://davidgelles.substack.com/• Website: https://davidgelles.com/—Where to find Eric:• Newsletter:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ericries.carrd.co/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • Podcast:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://ericriesshow.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • YouTube:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.youtube.com/@theericriesshow⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ —In This Episode We Cover:(00:00) Intro(02:30) Why Patagonia remains so little understood despite its visibility(05:47) How Yvon Chouinard resisted the corrupting influence of wealth(07:48) How Yvon's rural upbringing shaped his enduring ethos(11:51) The pivotal moments that revealed a market for Yvon's high-quality gear(16:17) Yvon's partnership with Tom Frost and the expansion from climbing gear into apparel(18:06) How a local river fight sparked Yvon's lifelong activism(21:32) Why Patagonia was able to resist the corporate pressures that erode values(27:46) David on what corruption meant to Yvon and his uncompromising philosophy(30:03) LTSE and alternative structures that protect values(33:48) A short history of shareholder primacy and general incorporation(36:03) Yvon's aversion to conventional business culture(37:44) Doug Tompkins's contrasting path from luxury to large-scale conservation(40:33) Yvon's behind-the-scenes funding of Tompkins Conservation(42:19) Patagonia's values of quality and conservation and the movements it spurred(51:11) Tony's Chocolonely's ethical approach to chocolate and influence on supply chains(52:34) How Yvon structured succession to protect Patagonia's values(1:02:33) Examples of foundation-owned companies: Grundfos and Zeiss (1:03:47) A case for building protective structures from day one(1:06:06) Why mission-aligned, ethical companies don't get as much press(1:10:04) The long-term value of taking the harder road(1:16:25) What financial reporting teaches us about prioritizing ethics(1:22:03) Why every company must define its own purpose (1:24:59) Final reflections on why companies can be run with values and integrity—You can find episode references at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.ericriesshow.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠—Production and marketing by ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Pen Name⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Eric may be an investor in the companies discussed.

What if the best way to win in business is to do the exact opposite of what everyone else is doing? While most CEOs chase growth at all costs, Yvon Chouinard, the founder of Patagonia, chose a different path. Starting out as a rock climber and adventurer, when he pivoted to business, he built products to last, created a company culture where surfing sometimes mattered more than spreadsheets, and even risked profits to protect the planet. Then, in a move almost unheard of in corporate America, he gave the entire company away. In his new book ⁠Dirtbag Billionaire: How Yvon Chouinard Built Patagonia, Made a Fortune, and Gave It All Away,⁠ New York Times journalist David Gelles tells the story of how a reluctant businessman reshaped capitalism—and shows us what it looks like to build a company that puts people and the planet first.

For high-capacity leaders and achievers, this episode redefines recovery and reveals why clarity—not collapse—is the truer path forward.You're not depleted.

Dave breaks down the real state of steelhead conservation, the overlooked opportunities in warmwater fly fishing, and why swinging flies is more than a method—it's a mindset. He shares the story of helping launch Patagonia's Fly Fish social presence, his conversations with Yvon Chouinard, and why guiding should include deeper dialogue—yes, even about politics. You'll also hear about his global travel program, from sea-run cutthroat in Seattle to tarpon in rivers and bonefish in the Bahamas. Plus, Dave explains why your first fly fishing trip shouldn't always be for trout, how Patagonia is rethinking wader design, and how listening—really listening—might just save the sport.

Kate Williams is CEO of 1% for the Planet, a global organization that holds businesses accountable to donate 1% of their annual sales to environmental causes. In 2002, Yvon Chouinard, founder of Patagonia, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies, created 1% for the Planet and started a global movement. Today, the network of 4,800+ business members have given more than $700 million in certified donations to vetted environmental organizations. Simply put, businesses commit, give and get certified. It's low lift for them and high impact for the environmental partners. In this conversation, Kate and I explored the psychology of giving, egregious examples of greenwashing, and how we can change philanthropy norms among the super-rich in the years ahead.

And, between his Vitamin Ski Chalet and playing music in the bars of Chamonix, Gary will always be the center of attention somewhere and the world is better for it.

This episode is for the gear nerds out there. The climbing world loves to reminisce on some of climbing's great inventions of the past, but what's happening in gear innovation right now? We put together some brief interviews with innovators past and present, to dive into tinkering in the climbing world, then and now. We'll start with an excerpt from Yvon Chouinard's "Legacy Series" interview to hear him reflect on revolutionizing the ice axe. Next, we'll take a massive leap forward into present-day sport climbing tactics, and chat with Will McNeill, of HangDog Climbing, whose ultralight clip-up device is becoming all the rage in the world of sport projecting. Next, we'll chat with Brent Barghahn, of Avant Climbing Innovations, about squeaking out the last bit of efficiency for rope soloing systems and hard trad climbing. Then, we'll take a step back in time again, and chat with Jack Tackle about the late John Middendorf's legacy in innovating the A5 portaledge, to set us up for our last conversation, a discussion with Nathan Kukathas of Grade 7 Equipment. Nathan is known for inventing the G7 Pod, which many say has been one of the biggest innovations for alpine climbing in years. Through it all, we'll talk about inspiration, what it takes to innovate in the climbing gear space, what could be next for climbing gear, and lots and lots about textiles, 3-D printing, and climbing harder.

How you climb a mountain is more important than reaching the top.– Yvon Chouinard

Show Notes:  https://wetflyswing.com/707  Presented by: Pescador on the Fly, FishHound Expeditions, Four Wheel Campers Sponsors: https://wetflyswing.com/sponsors  In this episode, we are thrilled to have Mitch and Aldo, the dynamic duo behind the renowned So Fly Fishing podcast, one of Canada's top fly fishing shows. Join us as Mitch and Aldo take us on a journey through Southern Ontario's stunning waters and beyond. They'll share captivating stories from their podcast, offering insights into their favorite trips and the incredible guests they've hosted. Whether you're planning your next big adventure or simply dreaming of the perfect fly fishing escape, Mitch and Aldo are here to provide inspiration and expert advice. Episode Chapters with Mitch Duesling and Aldo Pescatore-Tardioli on the So Fly Fishing Podcast 1:28 - I had the pleasure to guest on their podcast in April last year about starting and sustaining a fly fishing podcast. 3:44 - We started our chat by getting into their creative journey in the podcasting space. Mitch reflects on the origins of their project, which began as an idea in 2015 and launched its first episode in January 2016. Mitch notes the rise of the creator culture, observing that even young family members aspire to be creators now. Aldo recalls joining the podcast as a guest on an episode and later becoming a co-host. The team experienced a shift in their production schedule during the Covid lockdown, initially increasing their output to one episode per week due to having more free time. Eventually, they settled into a rhythm of releasing two episodes per month, which they find to be a balanced and sustainable approach. 6:52 - We talk about fishing in Ontario. Mitch and Aldo discuss how Ontario offers a wide range of fishing opportunities due to its large size and diverse ecosystems, from Southern Ontario to the far north. They note that while they have traveled globally, Ontario remains a prime fishing destination for them. Aldo mentions the multi-species fishing opportunities, including smallmouth bass, pike, and musky, particularly in Ottawa. He also remarks on the less populated areas of the province, which offer remote fishing experiences. 9:51 - Aldo shares that time when a listener's invitation led them to Texas for redfishing, highlighting the exciting and memorable experiences that result from this kind of trips. Both Mitch and Aldo emphasize the importance of being open to opportunities and seizing them when they arise. 13:29 - Mitch discusses the shift from audio-only content to video podcasts on YouTube. He notes that more people are engaging with their content on YouTube, likely due to the visual component that video offers. Despite this shift, creating video content presents challenges, such as ensuring guests have the necessary technology to participate visually. 16:00 - We discuss the excitement of having well-known guests on the show, particularly those outside the fly fishing community. They recount a near-success in booking actor Liam Neeson, who declined their invitation but showed interest initially. They dream of featuring other famous personalities, focusing solely on their fishing experiences rather than their celebrity status. 18:39 - I mention our episodes with Yvon Chouinard and Henry Winkler. 19:13 - The hosts discuss their experiences with receiving negative comments or "hate mail" after podcast episodes. Mitch and Aldo acknowledge that early on, they received criticism for swearing too much, which they have since reduced. 21:19 - Aldo and Mitch reveal how they plan and produce their episodes. They rely on a network of sponsors, fly shops, guides, and local connections to secure guests, aiming to maintain a balance between international content and local stories from Ontario. 24:25 - We ask them about their plans for this year. One of the highlights is a trip to Belize in February, where they'll be exploring Ambergris Caye and San Pedro with a mix of DIY adventures and guided tours. Another major milestone for the team is the upcoming 200th episode of their podcast, which they are thrilled about. 26:28 - They share about an annual event called the Southern Ontario Trout Opener Social in April. It serves as a fundraiser aiming to support local river conservation efforts. The event features a cocktail party setup with around 150 attendees, including tying competitions where participants can win a day with a guide. The event has been running for four years and was designed to attract both fishing enthusiasts and non-fishers. 30:25 - Our conversation discusses potential guests and episodes for this year. Aldo expresses a strong interest in having Andy Mill on the show. He admires Andy's work and has been an avid listener of the Mill House podcast, which captures the allure of saltwater fishing. 35:33 - We dig into Aldo's first time travelling to Belize. Mitch also shares his favorite fishing trip so far which was in a river in Northern Ontario because of the available fish species and wild life there. 45:14 - Aldo raises a concern about the potential apprehension of having earlier episodes of their podcast accessible to listeners, particularly if they might not reflect the current quality or style. 46:34 - They share their favorite podcasts. Mitch highlights "Design Matters" with Debbie Millman as his favorite podcast. He praised Debbie's interviewing style, noting her ability to keep conversations engaging and forward-moving. Aldo recommends "Pivot" with Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway. He explains that the podcast explores the intersection of business, technology, and everyday life. Aldo appreciates the hosts' approach, as they avoid talking down to listeners. 49:22 - Mitch shares the inspiration behind starting a podcast, highlighting his love for radio and conversation. His interest sparked from listening to "The Ricky Gervais Show," which he considers one of the best podcasts due to its humor and engaging content. 51:40 - We ask for the story about the title of their podcast, So Fly. 52:48 - We share a story about our family's recent trip to Anchorage, Alaska with the team of Fishhound Expeditions. We travelled in our amazing pop up camper from Four Wheel Campers. 56:17 - We ask some random questions like their go-to YouTube channel and podcast platform.

In 1989, after years of scaling some of the most challenging peaks in the world, Peter Metcalf took on a daunting new risk: resuscitating a bankrupt climbing-equipment company, and putting himself into deep debt to do so. From the defunct assets of Chouinard Equipment, Peter launched Black Diamond Equipment, and capitalized on the growing popularity of sport climbing to grow it into one of the most recognizable outdoor brands in the world. By the way, Yvon Chouinard, the founder of Chouinard Equipment, went on to build his next company, Patagonia, into an iconic outdoor apparel brand.
