An Interview Series with 19 Creative Climbers

Hey guys, I've posted a lot of interviews up here over the years, from my own writing and from the ClimbTalk radio show.

This one hits especially close to home. I've spent the last month or so getting in touch with climbers that make their living in the creative realms. Some you know. Matt Samet, the author of "Death Grip," talks about his creative evolution and his struggles with anxiety, depression and benzo addiction that he so lucidly chronicled in his book. Brendan Leonard from Semi-Rad is here. Jason Kehl talks about darkness and art. Chris Kalous, the daddy of the Enormocast, talks about his relationship with his podcast. Jonathan Siegrist talks about global travel as a form of art. We also have some people you might not be so familiar with, like writer and artist Peter Beal, owner of Three Peak Films George Bruce Wilson, writer Hillary Oliver, outdoor apparel business owner Marty Brodsky and fine artist Marisa Aragon Ware. There are many more you certainly know of and definitely have never heard of here, all chatting about art and climbing.

I gave all 19 of these folks five questions apiece, mainly focusing on how they juggle the climbing lifestyle with making it as artists, writers, filmmakers, etc. I hope you enjoy!
