Wow! Thank you, Maria, for taking us on this journey. What a precious opportunity to go below the surface and discover a whole world. Through careful storytelling and sound design you evoke what the world looks and sounds like from a point of view that I wasn't aware of. I feel refreshed,...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to the Out There podcast for many years now and I love their thoughtful, intentional storytelling. The most recent season about Silence has been particularly meaningful — anybody who connects to nature (even if you aren’t a hiker) will really love this show!

The “My Dad’s Depression” episode is a beautiful story. 🙏🏼

Ugh
An advertisement for border patrol? Really?

The host doesn’t use her normal speaking voice; she takes deep breaths and has a tone of voice that is on the sad spectrum. It’s such a shame, because she’s got a great speaking voice when she’s just having a conversation.

Host Willow Belden has pieced together a stunning and diverse show in Out There. I am an avid outdoors person and I feel like many other outdoorsy podcasts that get stuck in one lane, or manage to seem unconsolidated when they try and touch different areas of outdoor pursuits, sports, stories,...Read full review »

I love the unique perspectives of people’s experiences in the outside world! One of my favorite podcasts.
Jaimie Butterfly via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/23/23
So glad to find this podcast that popped up in my feed. Calming outdoors-life stories about resilience and hopes and capabilities. I’m in a season of transition and uncertainty, and listening to Out There has opened up some fun, new thinking – I’ve already started looking at campers! Well, why...Read full review »

As a woman raised by strong women and raising one of my own, I wish I had found this podcast earlier! Even for me--raised camping, doing time in the Army, working in the field as a scientist--taking to the back country means I must overcome the instinctive first response of fear from my lizard...Read full review »

I love this podcast. I stumbled across it, but it’s become a favorite. It’s almost always a delight —interesting pretty much much consistently and often inspiring. Worth the time. So happy I found it.

As a token white male in the outdoors I too appreciate fresh perspectives in storytelling. I have really enjoyed the broadening stories and points of view from Willow and her contributors. Thank you!
MattFPerry via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/23
I enjoy the original outdoor content with a positive vibe. Inspires me to spend more time out there. Thanks Willow for your heart felt presentation.
Vanpediem via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/27/22
I found the podcast to often denigrate and demean men and as such was incredibly sexist in a very toxic feminist way I’m a feminist and advocate for women But I never belittle or put men down to do so.... this podcast often try’s to play the high ground as “advocates for the underdog” but by...Read full review »

Couldn’t even make it through the ads for the first 10 minutes

I’m not interested in the narration from the host. Just let the subject talk. Also so much unessacary music. I just want the story. NO MORE NARRATION
jdsyvj via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/20/22
A high quality podcast with stories that any walk of life can take note from. Im from the UK and listen to these podcasts while out walking with my spring spaniel Oscar. Keep the great content coming 👍
Le Shad via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/14/22
This podcast always makes me feel calmer and takes the stress out of a busy day. The stories here are engrossing and thought-provoking, making me think about the outdoors in a new way, but they also just feel good to listen to in my down time; while cleaning my apartment, while on the subway,...Read full review »

This podcasts provides interesting listens about intriguing people and big questions. Love to listen during my hikes
Kab1202 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/22
Long form stories about the getting outside, produced in the style of an NPR show. The editing is tight and the stories are interesting. Haven’t skipped an episode yet.
Goekesmi via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/09/22
Love everything about this podcast!!!
trb wharever via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/06/22
Great episode. I have always found trail magic fascinating. I enjoyed hearing from an actual trail angel.
Trendy4u via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/25/22
Willow and her band of reporters are a welcome voice, fresh perspective and entertaining dinnertime companion. Every podcast paints an image of a person, a location, a challenge, an adventure that I can either relate to or, want to know better. You won’t be disappointed in this podcast and you...Read full review »

I’m a avid backpacker. Here are some stories to fire my love of the outdoors. Some are of people doing through-hikes beyond my ability and some are of people just finding themselves in nature. This, I can identify with. Check this podcast out and see if you don’t get motivated to get outside and...Read full review »

The stories are vibrant. The music integrates well. I have been listening for YEARS. You should too.
Linda from PA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/19/22
Such a good podcast! Willows stories and interviews always give me a sense of calmness almost like the feeling I have when Im in the wilderness.
dad of dragons via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/22
I met Willow in a dinner line at the 2022 Tour de Wyoming. In answering the usual chit-chat questions, she said she produced a podcast out of Laramie, Wyoming. Out of curiosity, I had to listen to an episode. I must say it exceeded my expectations in all ways. Why? Let’s face it, any wannabe...Read full review »

I love Out There. Now that I work from home, I get my morning exercise taking my dog for long walks by the river or through trails and streets with mature trees. In the mornings, I take the time to catch up on news, international events and opinions. But I “save” Out there for special times…...Read full review »

This is a really well put together podcast. I’ve been listening to it for a couple of years now. Some of the stories are arresting! And many truly inspiring. So much time must go into curating these stories. I love the outdoors so it’s definitely one for me.

High value, intelligent and long-running pod. Best of its kind. Thank you!
Prsopect Farms via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/13/22
I was really looking forward to the episode with Alex Honnold’s mom. Unfortunately the part where you continued to press her about how most elite climbers die seemed very unnecessary. She continued to tell you she was aware of the risks.
flyingstar_2002 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/13/21
Love some of these episodes! The host is very thoughtful, but I wish she sounded more upbeat (I think of Eeyore sometimes when she sounds ho-hum), and avoided the deep gasps for emphasis. Just sayin’ :-)
CCG! via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/12/21
This episode is incredibly compelling and thought provoking. The incorporation of personal details made it all the more evocative. It had me misty-eyed by the end ☺️
LeenyRose via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/18/21
So many of these episodes seem self-important and very, very earnest. Proselytic and righteous that tends toward the ridiculous. Drama. This kind of storytelling would have me planning a pre-dawn escape to the trail and a hasty pace to gain separation. True, some folks will revel in this social...Read full review »

Congrats on the success of your podcast. From one podcast host to another. I was pulled in by your Nice Guys Finish First episode. That’s the name my book, Nice Guys Finish First, hope to have you tune into my podcast too The Nice Guys on Business.
DJ Doug Sandler via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/19/21
Well told stories that get us outside, make us think, and make us happier. Out There is my much needed respite from work and stress. Keep up the great work Willow!
MegPross via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/21
I really like how Willow creates a conversation out of her interviews, weaving music and commentary so it is not just ask a question & give an answer. It’s storytelling at its best!
Patrice La Vigne via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/17/21
Loving these stories!!! New favorite podcast
zachclimber15207 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/21
I love stories about adventures in the outdoors and I love stories about personal growth and transformation. This is a fusion of both!
NotTheManDan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/13/21
For the most part, it has been enjoyable listening to “Out There” regarding stories of adventure and nature. Although the episode “Passing” initially attempted to incorporate some semblance of nature, this episode ends up being more social blather—something I seek to leave behind when I search...Read full review »

This podcast does a fantastic job of sharing and telling truly moving, captivating, and relevant stories about people and their inspiring outdoor experiences.

As an aspiring backpacker and Black person of color who lives along and has informally day-hiked along the AT, I sincerely appreciate this episode. I really connect (even more these days) with media that are not afraid to talk about color and how it affects one’s life, decisions, ability, and...Read full review »
