In this episode, Josh + Brian tend to some popular topics in their own unique way.

There's a lot to celebrate about Cocodona 250. Many podcasts have already named those things. In our post-race analysis we look at the coverage and think through how it could be better even with the existing budget.

Karl Meltzer joined us last week and dropped a lot of gold. Too much acutally. We needed this episode to follow up on some of his takes and drill down on them including his take Hardrock and UTMB.

Western States - as we start to shape our own narratives of note, wolfie begins to frame what he thinks is most interesting: mademen vs. the rest, haves vs. the have nots.
