This is an incredible video with views of the Himalayas probably never seen before in the history of mankind. It is truly like being able to view the scenery from the perspective of a bird. This video caps an already superlative series.

This podcast delves into the finer points of an expedition.It is full of the finer details associated with a Himalayan adventure. Great job Jon , Ben and Major.

I cannot praise these guys enough for documenting the entire expedition down to the finest detail. Addictive because once you start watching an episode, forget about sleeping. I am also incredibly impressed with their videography and photography skills. It can't get more RAW then that. Also, it...Read full review »

When I returned home from trekking Everest Base Camp and living in Nepal for a few months I was feeling home sick for my mountain lifestyle. I started watching this and not only did it transport me back to the life I was missing so much, it let me experience it in a whole new and awesome way. We...Read full review »

I highly recommend this podcast to anyone with dreams of experiencing the journey to Mt. Everest. I've been watching these episodes for several years now. I look forward to each new release. As a kid, I always dreamed of climbing Mt. Everest but never got the chance. This has helped fill that...Read full review »

I started watching from episode 000 about a year ago and I have watched every episode. I hope to someday go on one of the treks but for now, I will have to settle with watching the podcasts. Keep up the great work!

The show is ok. It has some moments that can be interesting, but in most cases, it's not. Video is extremely repetitive and focuses on unimportant and mundane activities. There's no reason that there should be almost 15 minutes of video showing a bunch of people trying to set up a projector, for...Read full review »

Jon, best casts on the web, all I can say is these are a must see right from the start at 000....
Tldim via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/06/11
Most videos won't run. Spoke to tech support which said it's they website that didn't upload it correctly. Oh well I'll find another podcast.

The other reviews have already said it, this is 5 star material all the way and then some. Start at episode 000 and work on up.

Excellent! I feel like I know members of the expedition. Jon also provides a wonderful view of himalayan cultures and of course Everest itself. I am telling all my friends about it. Thanks Jon.

50JumpChump via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/22/10
This podcast is the most addicting podcast I have seen. I would compare this very favorably with other podcast/videos on Everest. I really appreciate how this podcast showed the climbs as they were - the good, the bad, and the ugly. Not being a climber myself, this would probably be as close...Read full review »
Chemophilic via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/21/10
The members of this expedition virtually take you along on their journey. There is no "conquering" attitude here- these guys are respectful, nice, AND fun to 'hang out' with. Your challenge will be to have the patience while waiting for the next podcast to come out. Thanks for all your hard work!...Read full review »

I am completely hooked on this podcast. Be sure to start at episode zero you will get an appreciation on what goes into just getting to Everest. It is eye opening experience of what it is like to be at Everest. John thanks for putting this podcast out.
Runningman23 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/10
My three lovely young daughters got me an iPod Nano for my birthday recently and I came across this podcast while browsing around. I'm totally hooked! I watch as many episodes as I can during my commute to/from work each day. I'm only up to episode 36, but am trying to catch up. My only...Read full review »

I really enjoyed watching the movies. The photographs were great.
Ruthbajblog via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/12/10
Watch this series and you will come away with much more than a beautifully shot landscape. You will soon find out it's the culture and its people is the real reason you go to this region of the world. Jon and others take you on a journey few of us may ever take and like I do, call him a friend...Read full review »

Great footage, done some amatuer climbing in Peru, you show the local culture as it should, with respect to the locals for their support and hospitality. Climbing is as you are showing it, it is the journey not the destination. Keep up the excellent work.
Alexpsu88 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/05/10

I'm not sure I'll ever make it to the Himalaya, but I feel like I've been there after watching "The Rest of Everest." This podcast has a great format and the main characters are captivating and multidemensional humans who seek solutions in the mountains. If you are a learning mountaineer or an...Read full review »

Some great footage for us armchair mountain climbers. Inspiring enough to consider going to the Himalayas to see the mountains and experience the culture first hand.
das68 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/13/10
I met Jon a few years ago and was so taken with his first "Rest of Everest" season that I was motivated to contact Jon. He eventually encouraged me to consider making the trek to Base Camp which I completed in 2007. The latest season traces the trek I made so it is awesome to see video of the...Read full review »

I have always loved mountaineering and the Buddhist culture. I picked a podcast that looked interesting and watched. I was hooked. I quickly realized that I needed to start at the beginning, as this was not a typical cilmb-cast. This has the climbing, but it is SO much more than that - and that...Read full review »

Mt. Everest comes to life in a different fashion here as John Miller's humble descriptions of the people, customs, traumas, and events shed a very different light on those who would conquer the highest peak on earth. Interviews and observations with climbers from around the world are a delight...Read full review »

I'm not a climber and have no interest in ever climbing Everest, even if you paid me, but this is one of the best Podcasts out there. I"m only 30 podcasts in, but Jon and Ben have me hooked. Great job guys, I look forward to more of the same 5 star work in the future.
Dave48642 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/08/09
I originally downloaded these podcasts to fuel my fascination with Mt Everest and give me something to listen to at work. I must say, I am now hopelessly addicted to "The Rest of Everest." This is a really great podcast and I have learned so much! Its more than a mountain, its a way of life!...Read full review »
joneus via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/24/09
The Rest of Everest is the best podcast regarding Everest, trekking, the Himalayas and climbing. Period. Wonderful stuff from the summit of Everest to the smallest details of trekking. Watch them all!
zeitgeist via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/18/09
What else can be said? This podcast is amazing. Too many books and movies limit their presentations to the main event of climbing Mt. Everet, the final 10 days to summit. The experience Jon and Ben have presented allows you to get an intimate look at exactly what it really takes to get there. I...Read full review »

This is a great Podcast. Its more of a travel log for the Everest region. Its a must see for anyone interested in the area or plan to travel too the area.

As I was going throught the podcasts, I somehow got this one. I was fasinated and thrilled to see such a podcast, which depicts the inner scene in a exact manner. I am from Kathmandu, Nepal and to see my place from some other people view, I was kindda skeptical. However, these guys did a...Read full review »

Jon Miller is the Rick Steves of the mountain climbing. Grab your Ipod and escape with Jon, Ben and Josh as they give you an up-close and personal view into climbing the Himalayas. The videos are breathtaking and the comraderie well, it's what life is really about.
TheSpaceman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/13/09
Jon Miller brings a very personal experience to the viewer that is very broad in scope. Maybe too much for some since the episodes are delivered without necessarily having a specific story. However, the stunning visuals, the many very fascinating people along the way, and the director's cut style...Read full review »

I've never climbed a mountain higher than 10,000 ft, but like so many others, I harbor secret dreams of standing atop the summit of Mt. Everest. I will probably never get anywhere near the mountain, but this podcast has gotten me feeling like I'm on the expedition. They cover everything, from the...Read full review »

I found you via Chris Mardquardt and his Tips From The Top Floor podcast. Your podcast takes us through an amazing journey to the top of Everest, but also gets involved the culture of Tibet. I've been addicted to watching this material and have seen something like 35hours in a week, while...Read full review »

Having lived in the US for more than 10 years now this podcast is a reminder of life when i was kid. More than the climbing part which is informative yet not relevant to most of the folks watching the podcast, the social aspect of the podcast is what is more interesting. The difference in...Read full review »

This is a terrifically compelling video podcast! The Himalyas and its people are amazing and Jon and Co. take us along for the adventure. Ultimately, The Rest of Everest is a powerfully inspiring call for people to pursue their own dreams - whatever they may be. Namaste!

I will almost certainly never travel in the way this team did but thanks to this amazing podcast I don't feel so bad about it. The footage is awesome and, crucially, I genuinely like the team. They respect the culture of the places they are travelling through and each other. This is my favourite...Read full review »

This is hands down the most amazing podcast. Even if you have NO interest in mountaineering, you MUST download these videos!
alexbuckner11 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/13/09
This podcast is wonderful, the behind the scenes video is amazing. I love learning about the Tibetan culture and seeing your experiences. It makes me want to climb! I've been watching for a while and have gotten my roommates and my parents into it too! Thanks so much!
sdub99 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/23/09
This Podcast is VERY well filmed, edited, and explained both by climber Ben, producer John, and the rest of the guests. It should be best starting to watch from 000 and go up from there. They explain many things about the culture and climbing Mount Everest. It is not all just about climbing...Read full review »

An amazing documentary that really captures all aspects of climbing Everest, with an outstanding look at culture, mountaineering, everest, and even things many would never ask about (such as where everyone goes to the bathroom, etc.) All of these things are covered in depth.
