League of Wildness,
I recorded this episode a few weeks ago and for myriad reasons I'm just getting it uploaded now. I wanted to share my experience as well as some reflections regarding the Marshall Fire that destroyed my entire neighborhood on December 30, 2021. It was a very real example of just how quickly life can change. I was at home with my family, doing some casual holiday work and the next thing I know we are evacuating from our home as a wall of fire pushed by 80+mph winds drove it straight through the middle of of town. It was a surreal experience and I'm still processing the event. We are currently displaced from our home due to smoke damage. In addition, our neighborhood is essentially a hazmat zone from all the burned homes. It's not an optimal place for wildness.
On the bright side, the fire has brought the community together like nothing I've seen before. The generosity and selflessness that I've witnessed has been a powerful reminder of how much humans depend on each other. It's also made me extremely empathetic to those that have gone through, as well as those that will go through something like this in the future. It's 100% the case of being in the wrong place at the wrong time - no one did anything wrong and there is no fault. The fire just happened and its consequences must be dealt with.
Thank you to all the members of the League of Wildness who sent words of encouragement as well as care packages. I cannot thank you enough and I'm eternally grateful. It makes me much more confident in the journey ahead having such a wild crew at my back.
Thanks for listening!

Hello to the League of Wildness,
2021 is coming to a close and it's time to start looking into next year. What type of wildness are you going to get into? What will your Misogi be? How will you set the momentum on January 1st?
All things to consider...
Thanks for listening!

Hello to The League of Wildness,
Thanks for tuning into this quicky episode. I've been on a hot streak with doing a morning walk/run/ruck and wanted to talk about cardio vs movement. I've also been getting back into the cold shower routine. Nothing crazy, just 1-minute or so first thing when I wake up - it's invigorating.
I also just had my first pseudo-cancel by Facebook. We created an ad featuring Alex from episode #103. It's a rad video that shares his story and transformation. But apparently, Facebook thinks that the story of a dude working his ass off for over a year and changing his life is not appropriate advertising material...
You can see this video here.

Hey Wild Family,
This is an episode of mixed emotions. David, co-founder of monkii has resigned from the company. I've got nothing but love and respect for him. He had to do what was right for himself and his family. He is deeply missed and I wouldn't be where I am today if it were not for him. Thank you, David.
He has also played an integral role in helping Kim and I transition and keep moving forward. He has shared all his learnings from the past 8 years to set us up for success and continues to help us out when we need his expertise. Kim and I are stoked for the journey ahead and although we miss David wildly - we're excited to lead the next generation of wildness.

Hey Wild People,
Thanks for tuning into the show. I wanted to share my Thanksgiving workout plans to see if anyone wanted to join in the wildness. I also wanted to express my thanks to you all. I literally would not be here if it were not for your support and I'm grateful.
How can we serve you better?
What is missing from monkii.co?
Would you be into a daily monkii sesh workout?
Please, let us know!

Wild Family -
This is by far one of the best episodes we've had in a long time. I'd like to welcome Alex Layton to the show. Alex recently sent me a note on Instagram that I almost didn't believe at first. He lost 200-pounds by training with monkii 360 every day for one year. He literally used monkii 360 for 365 days in a row (and has the photos to prove it). He has made a total transformation and his energy, enthusiasm, and stoke is palpable. Alex is also a quote machine and his story has broad applications beyond weight loss. I appreciate him taking the time to come on the show and a follow-up episode is well in order.
Here we go.

Wild Family,
I'm sorry it's been so long. I lost the consistency and felt like I had to have some major come-back show to get back on track. But like most habits, it's probably better to just start where you left off and try to get better every day. So here we are...
Thanks to everyone who sent encouraging messages - it's good to start the conversation back up.

League of Wildness,
It's been a minute, but it's good to be back on the mic. I wanted to start by addressing the latest Stoic Kickstarter update and give a little more context. Bottom line is that we hear your concerns and frustrations. Please trust and believe in us to deliver the best version of Stoic.
Training Update: It's full-on adventure season here in Colorado. My training has shifted to supplement and complement the outdoor pursuits I'm getting into. I've lowered volume but kept intensity relatively high. I've also started some climbing-specific finger strength training done in a sort of grease-the-groove style. It seems to be working pretty well thus far.
Book club:
Crazy Horse and Custer: The Parallel Lives of Two American Warriors
The Impossible Climb: Alex Honnold, El Capitan, and the Climbing Life

Howdy monkiis,
...and just like that 100 episodes!!! Thank you to all the monkiis who have been along for the journey! I had been a huge fan/consumer of podcasts for years and I fought through some serious resistance to finally launch this show on January 17, 2019, when I published the first episode.
The best part of the show is getting to meet and talk with monkiis from all over the world. I appreciate the comments and emails you guys send my way as well as all the rad ideas you share with me. Thank you.
It's all a journey and I appreciate having you along for the ride. Let's keep getting wilder.

Hey monkiis,
I've been reading an awesome book about Crazy Horse and Custer that I'd highly recommend - shoutout to the monkii book club! The book made me think a bit about seasonality which then me to consider how seasonality fits into training.
What do your training seasons look like?
