Introducing "The Attempt" Podcast | Episode 1: "I'm attempting it. I'm attempting it."

We interrupt your normally scheduled Backpacker Radio content to bring you a sneak peak of a brand new podcast launched by The Trek in partnership with BadCat Media, called, The Attempt.  

 

The Attempt follows Benjamin Drachman during his *attempted* SOBO thru-hike of the PCT in 2019.  The show is produced by Julia Drachman- and no that last name is not a coincidence, Julia is Ben's older sister.  What may shock you about this show is its production value.  And by that, I mean, it has production value.  We're all about trying new things here at The Trek.

 

In other words, if This American Life and Trail Correspondents had a baby, this podcast would be that baby.

 

Instead of further explaining what this show is, let's give you a Costco sample size for you to chew on.  As soon as I shut the hell up, you'll get the first episode of this show.  If you like what you hear, I encourage you to head to the thetrek.co/theattempt to find more episodes (the first three are already out) or simply search for "The Attempt" in your preferred podcast platform.
