Former professional dog walker and AT and PCT thru hiker Claire "Honeybee" Damon sits down with Doc for some studio time to talk trail with Doc. Settle in and buckle up as Honeybee discusses awkward snot rocket moments, trusting at the wrong time, norovirus, good times in trailers, poor boundaries, Six Mil, Wham, McFly, Road Soda, Impulse, dog walking empires, Bobby the Greek, post trail grief, Paris, Stirrup Lake proposals, and the absolutely astounding act of digging preventative catholes. Epic. (This is Part I. Be sure to listen to Part II.)
