Thanks to the Vampire Professor himself for sitting down and sharing his story and crazy facts about the origins of Vampires. We also talk a lot about climbing (duh) and the PCA Comps!! We had a few technical difficulties while recording this one so you'll have to forgive our clippy-ness in some sections. Had this episode stored in the vault (which is now empty) so here you go!

Our favorite north idahoan Italian step father returns to talk about his checkered past, projecting truly at your limit, and Madrock finger condoms. The good boys even talk about mental health for like three seconds. Glorious podcasting happening here. Prepare to be blown way away back to the silly little place that you came from.

Sam's been gone for a month climbing in Castle Hill, New Zealand. Now he won't shut up about it. Thankfully, traveling Kiwi, Alec McCallum, was around to indulge him a little. Alec has been climbing in the Castle Hill Basin since he was just a wee lad. Now, he's a grown man who buys vans from failed magicians in order to facilitate his need climb rocks. Enjoy! PS - Nate was absent for this one, we missed him dearly.

This week we talk with one of the most genuine and hilarious people that we know. Doug Ianuario is a dedicated athlete, father, and friend. Also his meat is of astronomical proportions. RIP Juice Wrld.

Tristan Chen is a climber and fantastic human from Massachusetts. In this episode, the boys reminisce about the past, talk about Tristan's experience with Leukemia, and chat about why Tristan doesn't think that Keenan Takahashi dresses well. Sam disagrees. THE SUPER VILLAIN HAS ARRIVED. Please excuse our sub-par audio for the first 20 minutes. It's gets better. It's Sam's fault.

OMG Nate has a foot fetish? Absolutely. What's also true is Michaela Kiersch is an all-around great human being and we appreciate her sitting down with us to discuss sending La Rambla, growing up in Chicago, and finding balance in her busy life. The boys are sleepy on this one, Michaela holds the episode together. Praise be!

Sam's stepdad Mike joins the boys in chatting about growing up in Idaho, a recent chipping controversy, and potential that OnlyFans has to send climbing into the stratosphere! Strap in dummies! Also, Nate forgets how to spell George. But it's ok, we still love him. <3

It was an absolute pleasure to sit down with Eric Zschiesche. Eric has been climbing/bouldering for nearly 50 years and is in it for the love of the game! From bouldering in the 1970s, to risky solos on bridges, this one is a real treat.

Just the two boys on this one! Sam and Nate talk about their love of reality tv, followed by Nate chronicling his past struggles of addiction and recovery. As a special treat, Nate talked directly into a plastic cup of boba tea for 30 minutes. Also Andy makes an appearance, whoever that is.

Sam stays up way past his bedtime to chat with Anthony Chertudi. Anthony is known for developing many classic boulder problems around Utah such as Zero (V12), Spiritwalker (V13/14), and Black #1 (V12). But climbing aside, Anthony's harrowing experience with Lyme Disease is the topic of discussion for today. Prepare yourself as shit does indeed get real.

Welcome to The No Rope Show! For the inaugural episode, Nate and Sam sit down with Ronnie Jenkins to discuss the history of southern bouldering, Ronnie's personal climbing history, and his advice for younger climbers. It's a hoot of a time. Nate laughs a lot, Sam talks too much, and Ronnie doesn't know what to do with his hands.
