Thru hike and creator of the Metro on the Move YouTube Channel, Andrew "Metro" Miller sits down with Doc in the studio to talk trail and Type II Fun. Settle in and buckle up as Metro talks about how he found himself on the AT trying to deal with the trauma of losing a friend. Along the way, Metro discusses third degree chafe burns, Boots Off Hostel, privy cheese sticks, hillbillies with guns, bear encounters, crowning, how his brother was made in Hong Kong, his time in a punk rock band, bible smuggling, ET, Luscious, and just exactly what to say to the bear trying to tear through your tent. Epic. (This is Part I. Be sure to listen to Part II.)
