Alright, so the plan was that the guy I was interviewing was going to answer my questions via video while on a large climb he was doing over the weekend. Then I got a text saturday afternoon that the question sheet blew away. He still put up one video on Facebook which I will add to here when I'm at home but I will need to do a slightly less cool interview.

So it looks like he remembered a few of the questions and he took some very cool videos answering them. He actually answered some questions that I didn't ask so I'll add them cause they were good.* I also just finished recording the rest of the answers from him and I recorded my second subject (Luke Parrot).

-Did you go to school for what you did in outdoor leadership? media type="youtube" key="foxh4K7mRr4" width="425" height="350"media type="youtube" key="E7VB4tm8M2g" width="425" height="350" So the overall answer was, no. Josh went to school for acting I believe and Luke went for sports management. I liked Luke's advice regarding not locking my self into something too specific via college. Study more broad subjects.

-Where did you start in the outdoor field (no pun intended)? Luke answers this in the his introduction

Both of them started enjoying the outdoors as kids but the most they started getting outside was when they joined the camps.
