On Episode 324 of the Enormocast, I sit down for the second time with German climber Ines Papert. The first time was way back in 2016 when Ines and I climbed together in Indian Creek and found time torecord an interview. At that time, Ines was the single mom of a teenager but still managing the life of a pro climber. As her boy gained more independence in the following decade, Ines’ career flourished as she climbed all over the world focusing on alpine climbing in the greater ranges. This interview finds Ines contemplating aging, her life as a mom, and her motivations as a rock climber and ice climber as alpinism takes a back seat for now.

On Episode 84, I sit down in a clean well-lit place in SLC during The Black Diamond Rock Project with German climber Daniel Jung. Daniel shakes off a nap while talking about his upbringing in Deutschland. He chronicles his humble beginnings and inspirations to his modern day building of a local gym for his fellow kletterpflanzen. Once king of the road in Europe, Daniel now splits his time with his brother Markus operating Jungs Boulderhalle and still climbing and living in the dirt with his friends.
