“I love the national parks and was super excited to get into this podcast. One episode was enough to tell me that this is not a podcast about nature (even though nature is literally in the title). Nature is only the context for the podcasts true agenda. Aside from the oft occurrences of filthy language (which certainly means no podcast listening with small kids), there is a strong ideological agenda being pushed in the podcast. Certainly everyone has the right to differing political views and ideologies, so be honest about it REI, and don’t try to hide this under the guise of nature. For my part, since I don’t espouse the ideologies being pushed through this (not rally about nature) REI podcast, I have lost some respect for REI as my favorite outdoor outfitter. It appears they are more about forcing their worldview on me than doing what they actually exist for which is, I don’t know… outdoor recreation?”
