This is the best podcast for information on NPs! Some others are informational but bland, Ash & John are actually pleasurable to listen to. Love it!

We are planning a trip to the Tetons, so I thought I would listen to those specific episodes. They were so good that I found myself listening to others too and am loving it!

Our family loves this podcast. Ash and John are so much fun to listen to. They have a wealth of knowledge and explore both the popular and the out of the way parks. It doesn’t matter if we are preparing to go to a park or are listening to an episode after a visit (to make sure we checked of all...Read full review »

Ever since we listened to the episode on Mesa Verde fun facts on our way to the park, I’ve been hooked! I listen to this on long runs, and often find myself smiling goofily because Ash and John are hilarious and sweet. We’re using their itinerary to plan our trip to Arches and Canyonlands in the...Read full review »

1st trip to the Tetons is 2 days away and this was the perfect podcast to stumble across to get an overview of the park and hikes and must see things. I’ve of course already done lots of research so everything discussed was familiar but great to hear about it from another source and get some...Read full review »

This podcast, and Ash’s you tube channel (Dirt in my Shoes) have taught me SO much about the national parks and have made trip planning fun and easy! Make sure to check out her webpage too because there is so much detailed information. Just recently bought an itinerary from Ash and, even though...Read full review »

I loved this interaction and facts. My fave flower is also the arrow root. Those yellow blooms are gorgeous in front of the magestic Tetons. I too am from SLC. Born there but grew up in Utah, Texas and Colorado. Landed in Wyoming 3 yrs ago as grandparents and campers. Been going to Tetons...Read full review »

I recently visited Everglades and Dry Tortugas after listening to your episodes about them! Your tips were great and allowed me to try some things around the parks that I hadn’t before, like Robert is Here. Super thankful that I listened to you guys and considered some new experiences before...Read full review »

I found Dirt In My Shoes on YouTube originally when planning my trip to the southwest. I found this podcast, and I’ve been enjoying them on my walks to help me get in the right mental space for the trip.

I look forward to this podcast every week! I absolutely love the quirky movie references John does. The playful banter between John and Ash is fantastic.

AudreyLRobertson via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/16/24
Ash and John are so full of knowledge and they play off each other so well. John will go on random nerd tangents and Ash will let you know the best time to see what he’s talking about and she’ll let you know what you can probably skip. It’s great. The fun facts episodes are often my favorites...Read full review »

It’s my new favorite national park podcast. Ash and John crush it! Fun and helpful tips.
Fish770tim via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/04/24
I found this podcast last summer when looking for episodes about Grand Teton and because of the two Teton episodes we did things we wouldn’t have known to do (paddle board hike and then also this nacho tower food as two examples). We live near a National park and I even love those episodes...Read full review »

I wouldn’t consider myself a podcast girlie, but I’m hooked to this one. They give so much good information and it’s as if you’re talking to a friend. Highly recommend
amwashh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/24
I’ve never rated a podcast but this one deserves every accolade! The hosts are so easy going, fun, and make me want to be in nature more. I learn so much about places I’ve never been. I love how they laugh with each other! Thank you both for your work on making this podcast!
HeMakesAllThingsBeautiful via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/09/24
My new favorite podcast, I can’t get enough! Ash and John are funny, entertaining, and obviously know their stuff! Can’t wait to follow their itineraries & advice as I start checking off the National Parks with my family!
karilouise_ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/07/24
Ash and John’s easy, conversational style make this podcast enjoyable. They give me new ideas of places to visit and help me remember places I’ve been. Thanks for being authentic and sharing your passion for the parks with us!

We’re planning to take our young family on a national park roadtrip next year and both my husband and I have been listening to the episodes of where we want to go and it’s already been so helpful in narrowing down what to do and what is realistic with small children!

I absolutely can not get enough of listening to the Ash and John talk about National Parks! From fun facts to how to explore the parks, they are so much fun.
Nukem28 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/24/24
Unfortunately the cringey host couple lacks the awareness to see that their personal anecdotes are not as interesting or funny as they seem to think. They don’t come across as park aficionados, but more so elementary level park goers. I know it’s harsh but not everyone needs a podcast.
NP Guide via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/12/24
I listen to a lot of podcasts. This is the one that leaves me feeling most happy, like I’m at a roadside diner, sitting across from Ash & John as they tell me about parks. Useful ideas, interesting background info, and fun stories, even though I haven’t read or watched the Rings.
CFgeo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/24
Love this podcast for all the information provided, tips, fun facts, etc. I’m always excited for a new episode to drop!

I started listening when I bought my Motorhome. This podcast has been more helpful than I ever anticipated. So glad I found this. I have a trip planned to Joshua Tree. I didn’t even now there was such a park. I traveled to Mount Rainier. Because I listened to the podcast, I found a place to stay...Read full review »

I have followed Ash on her blog for several years, so it is so nice to hear her and her hubby talk about my favorite subject: the National Parks! Very informative with a side of silly.
Sonnyleah via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/24
I started listening to the podcast from the first episode and have enjoyed every minute of it. Ash and John are very entertaining and provide a tremendous amount of helpful information about the national parks. I look forward to the release of a new episode every week.
DeandotF via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/24/24
I have listened since the first week! I was already a fan of the Dirt in My Shoes blog and have used it many times when traveling. Ash and John add a little extra joy to my week because I'm always thinking about travel- National Park Travel in particular. Great job and keep it up!Read full review »

My family and I love listening to this podcast when we’re on road trips - especially when we’re headed to the parks that they talk about! Don’t forget to have a notebook handy to write down all the spots they mention!
mander1383 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/02/24
Meandering thoughts with no structure. But they need an editor. Lots of meaningless conversation about their lives. Skip this one.

The two are so great at covering every aspect you need to know about our National Parks. I’ve been enjoying this podcast for about 9 months, digging into archives when I caught up to all released episodes. John gives you such cool facts and background while Ash is a wealth of information on...Read full review »

I just started listening to podcasts a few months back. Found this one and I was hooked from the get go. I went Yellowstone this past fall and got their itinerary. Without the itinerary and the podcast I would have been overwhelmed about the size of the park.

My husband and I have become obsessed with this podcast. We started visiting the National Parks in 2020 and have listened to many different podcasts.
