Andy has great people on his podcast and the conversations are so interesting. I’m new to hiking and want to try a short thru hike. Hearing the stories of what others have overcome to do theirs is so encouraging. Andy and his guest have been so vulnerable about mental health, self love, body...Read full review »

Found you, and your hiking videos through Instagram. Growing up in Ashland a lot of your hikes are in very familiar areas, I love getting to revisit those trail. I think you do a great job bringing this hobby to those who may be at any skill level.

I went down the rabbit hole of all things hiking after watching endless documentaries on Netflix and Amazon Prime. Full disclosure, the li best hike so far is 8 miles but the dream is to thru hike at some point. I sought out this podcast because I want to learn more so I can hike safely and...Read full review »

The episodes are well produced and the guest list is awesome. I often feel more connected to our Creator while I’m out exploring creation. And I’m grateful that this podcast helps me to explore safely.

This has become my go to relaxing after work podcast. Andy is such a sweet, compassionate host and an incredible interviewer. As a woman who solo hikes a lot, I love how he goes out of his way to let female guests discuss hiking alone and how empowering it is. It's been such a difficult year...Read full review »

Andy asks great questions that lead guests to detailed and interesting answers. It’s seems like a lot of research goes into each interview. You can feel the passion for the outdoors in every episode. Very well done podcast! Looking forward to many more seasons!

Andy is a great interviewer and gets some great people on the show. As a 40 year old father of 4 my spouse and I are just starting hiking with our family and this podcast has been amazing for us. Thank you Andy!
ChrissyCovz via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/14/21
Found this podcast just recently- through a fb group, and I’m so happy I did. I’m a beginner biker, in a big body, and I love that Andy is pretty up front about how hiking has impacted his life. The interviews are in depth, completely chill, and just overall great quality. So interesting to hear...Read full review »

I started listening to this podcast in May and I am finally caught up! I am not one to listen to podcasts, but The Hiker Podcast has changed my life and I will continue to listen religiously. I am not a pro hiker, but I too recently discovered a love for the outdoors and listening to a variety...Read full review »

This podcast is very enjoyable. He has amazing guests and the audio quality is the best out of the 30 different podcasts I listen to daily at work.

I stumbled upon this podcast a few months ago. I’ve got to say that I’m a life long hiker/ outdoors person and this is the best most informative hiking podcast I’ve ever listened to! The host ask questions that are actually real, by real I mean things his listeners can actually apply to their own...Read full review »

I’m only 7 podcasts in, but so far I’m really enjoying it.

Thanks Andy for bring an outstanding view of the person inside the hikers. PS: I got some CNOC trekking poles!
Gymburch via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/03/21
The host’s style is calm and relaxing. It’s great to hear less about gear and more about people. I’d like to hear from some guests who are just average Joe’s who get out backpacking on the weekends and are new to the sport. That’s probably the vast majority of the people who listen to this...Read full review »
Lars357 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/08/21
I seriously LOVE listening to The Hiker Podcast! There are a wide range of topics talked about lives on and off trail for hikers. I listen as soon as a new episode is posted only to find myself each day checking to see if there is a new episode! Can’t get enough! Seriously do yourself a favor and...Read full review »

I have heard of podcasts. I am an Apple snob, but have not listened to podcasts yet. I am so tired of listening to the radio when I drive and not always in the mood for music. When I went hiking with my son over the weekend he was listening to a hiking podcast. I was intrigued. I did some...Read full review »

I loved this podcast because the host is very relatable, and since I’m new to the hiking world it is definitely helpful to listen to so many experience hikers on this podcast, it’s definitely worth your while if you share a passion for the outdoors!
suzukifast124 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/14/21
I moved to southern Oregon in June, and new nothing about the trails in the area. After a few months of battling my own problems I found the hiker podcast! Andy, you are such an inspiration and a great speaker! I can’t wait to get out and hike more!

Finally started listening from the beginning and absolutely loving these interviews. Right now I’m listening to the She-Ra episode. I’m so impressed by her thoughts and her outlook on life—It resonates with me. Thank you -@Trailjunction

Absolutely great interview skills Andy! I’m a relatively new hiker myself and was somewhat skeptical of your lack of experience. I have listened to 5 or 6 episodes now and am hooked. Keep up the great work. Wrote the review and then failed to hit send. Just a few days ago listened to the final...Read full review »

I’ve listened to every one of your episodes and I can say I highly recommend The Hiker Podcast! The interviews

An incredible host that goes beyond the generic hiking questions. Also the guests he gets are incredible
Jerome41 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/10/20
Andy is a new hiker but an accomplished audio/podcast guy. High quality and well produced. Some of the content focuses on his hometown of Ashland, Oregon while the rest of it centers on long distance backpacking personalities.
Bark bomb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/19/20
Andy definitely knows his way around the mic and has great hiking/backpacking guests, but please shorten up the “Marc Maron” introductions.
ballzymalzy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/29/20
I have a bit of a love/hate relationship with this podcast. The content is great and I love the enthusiasm for his interviews, topics, gear reviews etc but hate how long it takes to get to the topic. I understand the desire to encourage listeners to give positive reviews etc but some days it’s...Read full review »

Whether you have hiked the Triple Crown or never set foot on a dirt path, you’ve got to listen. The host does an excellent job of keeping it interesting, keeping it real. The conversation and questions are unlike any other outdoor or hiking podcast I’ve heard.
Daddy Llama via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/26/20
Surprisingly high quality audio especially for a new podcast. Good interviews, just please remember that epic thru hikers aren’t the only interesting people out there.
grmackay via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/19/20
Hooked from the first episode. Appreciate you being vulnerable to encourage others that may want to seek out the benefits of hiking and the outdoors.
Jim Donohoe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/18/20
Listened to your first episode while laying in my tent on a chilly summer night in the High Unitas Wilderness and love it, great content. I can’t wait to listen to more... Welcome to the trail brother :)
DeadOnTheFunk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/17/20
This show is pretty dang informative, fun, and very entertaining. I laughed, I cried (after hiking), and will keep coming back for more happy punishment Because it feels good.

It’s been such a delight to come across this podcast - love its humble nature, Andy’s transparency, the angle and its engaging approachability! Inspiring! (From an avid hiker!)
Poetichiker via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/14/20
For those who want to get to know fellow hikers in a way that you would by hiking on trail, this is a great podcast. The in depth discussions, backgrounds and experiences are incredibly genuine.
