One of my favorite podcasts! But...
I love how each episode begins with great music, is short, is structured in such so that it is easy to follow, and ends with an inspiring quote. Each episode teaches me at least one new thing as a beginner hiker who would like to try backpacking. I especially love the easy DIY hacks and recipes. The hosts are a joy to listen to and seem to be the sorts of people I would love to be friends with! My one critique is that I would like show to go beyond a US and European centric focus in its suggestions and quotations. I am aware that this may require hosts to do a bit more research so as to avoid sharing misinformation or unintentionally making blanket statements about a culture and landscape. However, From one of the episodes I gathered that listeners come from all over the world

After finding this podcast, I binge-listened to every episode (3 hour round-trip commute). I now look forward to each new Tuesday episode. Cute, delightful couple / backpacking monsters equal just the right mix for me.

First 40 is one of my favorite podcasts. I love every aspect of the show. It brings calm to my otherwise stressful commute. As the show grows, I hope they bring on and interview guests. Thanks, Legglers!
