S2 Ep5 - Get to know your sisters of the sidecountry

Oops! We realized we didn't give a thorough enough introduction as to why we love the outdoors enough to start a podcast! Episode 5 is about Dan and Cass, what started their love for the outdoors to begin with, what inspired them to start a podcast about the big outside, and what they hope all of you might get out of this as listeners. Thanks for being here and listening along, we are shocked to have listeners that don't personally know us--this is for you cats!

S2 Ep4 - Johnny Appleseed

Hold onto your tin hats ladies and gents, it's Johnny Appleseed! Given that it's fall, ya know, apple szn, we felt like reviewing the history of Johnny Appleseed. Has the name Johnny Appleseed been living in your head rent free for the majority of your life but you have no idea why? We are here to tell you why! This outdoorsman was locked in as a part of American culture long ago, and while I'm not sure if they still teach about his life in school, those of us that are listening age certainly learned about him in elementary school.

S2 Ep3 - It's Leaf Peepin' szn, y'all!

Leaf Peepin' is the time in CO (and in many other states in the U.S & Canada) where people flock form near and far to experience the change of seasons through the changing of the leaves. The Aspens in Colorado shift their green, shimmering, coin-like leaves into a vibrant yellow-gold, and it lasts for such a short time you'll be tempted to call out of work and head for the mountains to see them! It's basically your modern day gold rush, that lasts for just a month! Sure the traffic is awful on the weekends, but the views can't be beat. If you want to know more than your friends about Aspens for your hikes, or just want to know where to go to get the best views, then join us for episode 3! *Content Warning: Please be advised that this episode contains mentions of acts of domestic violence and its fatal consequences.
