Ep. 1027: How to Beat Monday - Revisited - Mike Chambers

Paul Robert Wolf Wilson is a professional photographer, Chief Storyteller at Rios to Rivers, LEAD Ambassador for the Northwest River Suppliers, and a budding whitewater kayaker.After his first river trip on the Rio Baker in Patagonia, Paul and his sister started the Maqlaqs Paddle Club in Chiloquin, Oregon to get more tribal youth in his community onto their ancestral rivers in kayaks. He uses his storytelling and recreational platforms to rally public education and support around river stewardship- taking this struggle from local conversations all the way up to the United Nations Convention on Climate Change.If Paul isn’t on the river or at his desk, you can probably find him off trail, struggle-busing with a backpack full of camera gear.https://community.nrs.com/duct-tape/2022/06/04/river-warriors-paul-robert-wolf-wilson/https://www.instagram.com/paulrww/https://www.riostorivers.org/updateshttps://www.hcn.org/articles/north-climate-change-bringing-the-fight-against-dams-to-cop26https://i20sp.com/i20sp-spotlight/2019/2/28/-spotlight-paul-wilsonGot an idea for a guest for the show?

Originally aired - May 18, 2020After running her first marathon in Tokyo after the loss of her father, Liz grew a deep love of running as a form of therapy and exercise. She had a self-proclaimed “addiction” for the high of crossing the finish line after over 26 miles of running, especially in places that were far from her hometown of Atlanta. As she approached her 30th birthday while living in Paris, she decided to join her passion for travel and marathons into an adventure of a lifetime! She committed to run 30 marathons in 30 different countries by the time she turns 30 in June of 2020. Each marathon focused on a different charity and she’s currently raising $100,000 to donate to various causes.

Laird is famous for surfing the biggest waves in the world and is largely considered to be the influence behind a number of surfing innovations. From popularizing stand-up paddle boarding, inventing hydrofoil boarding, and tow-in surfing, Laird is easily a face on the Mount Rushmore of surfing. Surfer Magazine has labeled Laird as, “the sport’s most complete surfer, displaying almost unnerving expertise in a multitude of disciplines, and flat out surfing’s biggest, boldest, bravest, and the best big wave surfer in the world today, bar none.”We sat down and chatted with Laird about what living Without Compromise means to him and how he maintains his innovation and zest for trying new things in the water. Athletic Brewing has also partnered with Laird in creating Superfood Swell, a collaboration beer with Laird’s Superfood, a refreshing tropical IPA. Big waves of mango collide with swells of pineapple and hints of coconut water to deliver a taste-bending brew that transports you to Hawaii’s shores.Athletic Brewing Camper Giveaway!Sign up for the Athletic Brewing camping trailer giveaway here: https://athleticbrewing.com/pages/grand-giveawaySupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/adventure-sports-podcast/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
