NINETY
Discover the extraordinary wartime story of the climbers and skiers behind America's only mountain troops. Not only did the 10th Mountain Division's insertion into World War II help end the war in Europe; post-war, its veterans founded and developed ski areas across America, started companies like NOLS and Nike and launched the fields of avalanche science and wilderness rescue. Ninety-Pound Rucksack examines the stories that made the unit famous as well as those history has forgotten. Host Christian Beckwith, founding editor of Alpinist Magazine and former editor of the American Alpine Journal, combines original research, immersive storytelling and firsthand mountain experience to explore not only the conventional wisdom about the 10th, but the transformative power of the mountains to forge a collective identity among the mountain troops—and to ignite a passion for the outdoors that reshaped American society in the process.
COMBAT STORY
Combat Story is a podcast built on honest conversations with the men and women who lived it. These are not scripted interviews or highlight reels. They are real accounts from veterans across generations, including infantry, special operations, pilots, JTACs, and more, sharing what it was like to operate in high-stakes environments where decisions carried real consequences. Each conversation explores the path in, the moments that shaped them in combat, and how they carried those experiences forward into life after service. The goal isn’t just to create content but to provide context, so the stories, decisions, and the people behind them are understood, preserved, and passed on. Thank you for walking beside us!

TRIPPING ON LEGENDS
Let's take a trip. Small town, USA. This is where the pulse of the paranormal resides. There are thousands of stories and experiences out there. Some have been told, and retold hundreds of times, and some are kept hidden, known only by the people that live there; this is where we come in. We're exploring the untold, and breaking down the overly familiar. Journeying through the one stoplight towns and discovering local urban legends, myths, lore, and paranormal episodes. Researching the backgrounds and developing the voices unheard. Our goal is not to capture evidence, but rather to capture the moment and bring our listeners along for the ride.
