S1E15: Who is Lil Buddha?
Listen to full episode :
We have the privilege of speaking with the one and only, Lil Buddha!
A unique episode as we have a special guest on the show with a special guest as our co-host. Legend returns as we co-host the show to ask Lil Buddha the hard hitting questions.
Such as, why do you not filter your water? Who is actually better at tennis? When will you start advertising by shaving company brands into dog's fur? What was his mom's base weight?
The questions that we all wonder!
Honestly, it was a very fun episode, filled with humor, but also deep conversation. We learn about Lil Buddha's incredible journey through the jungles of Thailand, we learn about not "wanting" to make hiking anything more than actually just walking but finding a purpose and responsibility to help spread awareness for AAPI, and we learn about how Lil Buddha began his journey into year after year life on trail.
Not one to tout miles or consider them important, he is now close to 50,000 miles hiked, an incredible feat for the stats, but as we all know the importance is in the moments and life within, not the miles.
Absolutely an amazing show, as we left it mostly unedited so you can feel the joy and laughs shared between 3 hikers as we all share in this wonderfully weird life we have found.
Thank you Lil Buddha and Legend, it was truly a joy!
