Description
Today we are joined by neuroscientist and thru-hiker Jordan Chamberlain or "Dr. J" as he's known on trail - who "flip-flopped" the Appalachian Trail in 2023! In this episode, Dr J. describes the insane weather he ran into - including a hurricane, three flash floods, wildfires, record breaking heat, and extreme cold. He also goes into the upsides and downsides of flip-flopping, personal mosquito entourages, hiking for mental health, skunk run-ins, classic cocktails, a special moment while ascending Mt. Washington, and much more.
