Being someone who spends a lot of time in the outdoors, I don’t really listen to any other podcasts about mountaineering, climbing, skiing etc. as they get a bit monotonous, but Cool Conversations is one not to miss.
It’s miraculous to hear Kenton’s continued enthusiasm after being a guide for so long.
Had the pleasure of meeting him a few months ago when my MR team was fundraising at one of his events. Seems a great guy.
Just been to Kenton’s Everest:The untold Story.
Brilliant in the way he was able to bring together all those epic tales under one roof, so to speak, delivered with passion and humour it was a riveting couple of hours.
I didn’t make base camp, only Tengboche monastery but am inspired to return.
(I’ve now shaken hands of two Everest summiteers Fentons and Doug Scott.)
Wonderful guests and excellent interviews. I have been binge listening whilst shoveling the endless 2023 California snow - you make it easy to keep going - Merci!
I have been following Kenton for a while to feel inspired with all things involving mountains/mindset and adventure. Met him personally a few weeks back at a talk and he was gracious to give me a few minutes of his time. Have a listen be inspired and think about what you could achieve…. Whilst driving on the M4
Love this podcast. Kenton is one of the best at what he does and does great to give an insight into what happens on his expeditions. This is the best podcast I listen to and as soon as the next one is released it’s gets played immediately. Hero
