“Between Two Pines,” a refreshing addition to the running podcast landscape, brought to you by UltraSignup, debuts today, Oct. 19. Do you enjoy being on a long run and making the dumbest jokes with your BFF? Well, you’re invited on a long run with Andy Pearson, ultrarunner and VP of Creative at Liquid Death and Dominic Grossman, professional runner by night and aerospace engineer by day. Also, a monthly guest will join to make everyone squirm in their socks.
This podcast is created for those who find traditional ultrarunning podcasts a tad too serious. “Between Two Pines” aims to bring humor, wit, and a dose of absurdity to the world of long-distance running.
In the inaugural episode, listeners are invited on a hilariously unconventional journey to explore the quirkiest corners of ultrarunning. In the “Fartalk” segment, the hosts lend their expertise to a caller desperately seeking advice on maintaining balance (literally!). Then they dive into a satirical grilling session (interview) with Jamil Coury of “Arid Viper Running.” The segment playfully pokes fun at race company Aravaipa Running along the way. Plus, topics include the enigmatic Cocodona 250, wild conspiracy theories, and much more.
“Between Two Pines” is billed as “A running podcast for people who think running podcasts are stupid,” The podcast promises a unique blend of comedy, camaraderie, and running banter that listeners won’t find anywhere else. Episode 2 is set to drop on Thursday, Oct. 26, before the show slides into a monthly release schedule. Listeners can expect monthly episodes brimming with laughter and unexpected insights into the world of ultrarunning.
