Outdoor adventurer and peak bagger Lauren "Zoot" Zeutenhorst joins Doc for some studio time to talk Type II Fun. Settle in and buckle up as Zoot shares her long journey with Superior Mesenteric Artery Syndrome, and how she did not let that stop her from climbing the five active volcanoes in Washington last summer. Along the way, Zoot discusses Jet Boiling, sock filtering, freeze drying, badass friends, biscuits and gravy, crevasse jumping, alpine starts, the Lunch Counter, steel rods, and how she went from tidy to trashy. Epic. (This is Part II. Be sure to listen to Part I.)
