Connections, trail care and chafing: boy stuff with The Real Hiking Viking and Lt Cookoo Bird (BPR #343)

On today’s episode of Backpacker Radio presented by The Trek, presented by Topo Athletic… today’s episode is pure chaos.

If you’ve listened to any of our Hiking Viking episodes, you already know what I’m talking about.

After four episodes of «Girl Stuff,» Chaunce thought it was only fair to balance the scales with what we’re officially calling the Guy Stuff episode, a panel-style conversation that goes off the rails almost immediately, featuring Jabba and Lt. Cookoo Bird.

We cover everything from trail grooming strategy (aka pubic management), to whether you prefer to have breasts or a vagina for 24 hours, to making Backpacker Radio condoms as trail swag, Chaunce has a beard, and Jabba bites his toes.

If you’re looking for refined hiking tips…this is not the place. This is a circus. Enjoy the trip.
