Train by day, Joe Rogan podcast by night, all day.
Alex Honnold, greetings.
Hello.
Very nice to meet you in person and very nice to have you here on the show.
I'm super psyched that you decided to come and join us because I watched one of your videos.
I've seen several of them online.
For folks who don't know, Alex is what you call a free solo climber.
Is that how you would describe it?
Yeah, you could say that.
And he essentially climbs gigantic scary mountains with no aid.
You don't have ropes.
You just climb it with your hands and your feet.
Yeah, I mean, occasionally.
Occasionally.
Yeah.
Well, you...
Normally I climb with ropes.
