I am enjoying the new Kris Hampton podcast which looks at Historic ascents. Currently the 90s with about 10 episodes available.
Kris gives a intro 30 min episode to each climb, then interviews one or more other climbers (latest episode is Ondra on Just So It) to get their view on it, whilst also learning about them as climbers.

Seconded, been enjoying it so far, great to hear interviews with a lot of the big names (and some good people who are a bit more under the radar).
The bonus episode with Mike Call on the American climbing film scene in the 1990s was a good listen too, I enjoyed the more free-style conversation over some of the more scripted episodes.

Been ejjoying too. It's pretty impressive the amount of work it seems he puts in.. It's fairly high quality.

Was that the era of the pusher films that I have somewhere on VHS?
-
Yeah those are the ones!

Thanks, I'll have a listen. There's a reason I still have the VHS tapes without any means whatsoever to play them.

I enjoyed the Just Do It interviews, which are the most conventional in structure. Alan Watts comes across as complete gentlemen. Happily, he confirms the driving past Raven Tor story (how could he not!)

Some people just don't have an eye for a line... :lol:
