I listen to a lot of podcasts of different shows- often to decompress to be entertained or to try and fall asleep and consistently on Apple to hear these "musical" intros -- so annoying. Anyway, I like hearing about the trails.... I like Gary's books except that I'm vegan, his toe nails, and sometimes I just think misogyny like how Meghan is portrayed-- her trail name how much she talks but ultimately she's a superstar. She is a solid person. He makes a difference and helps I really like her and I love Lemmy from the book. It's funny, but I really like Gary's voice. I like hearing him read his book although not everything in it like his toenail or his sex life but really appreciate the humor.

Just listened to the come back episode and the show is still soo weak, especially with Gary. Stop interrupting Megan with your humor that you think is funny, it’s not and neither are you. I agree with other reviews on here about the structure, sound, etc. Just hand it over to Reptar!

This could be so good. I jumped ahead a year after episode #4 and was similarly unimpressed. Zero structure. Too many characters. Disjunct. No organization. Terrible interviewing skills. Zero storytelling skills. Zero post-processing. Bad sound. Who’s in charge here? This is so bad. What a waste of time.

great topics and guests not to mention the Interviewers themselves!!! Highly recommend

While I won’t go into my own opinions on the movie, I really enjoyed green giants final opinions on what the book symbolizes to him. After telling my parents about my plan to hike in 2020, my dad gave me the book for Christmas and it symbolized his support for my journey. But I still love ripping on the movie 👍👍

This is one of my favorite podcasts and I’ve been tuning in for a little over a year now. They do a great job of talking about being on trail and listening turns my city walks into an adventure while I daydream about my next chance to get on a trail.

I’ve been itching to get out on a trail ever since my first backpacking trip with my scout troop in 2014 but I never seem to have the time. This show has been such an inspiration to make time and I’ve learned so much for my 2023 thru hike that the years can’t come fast enough!

Why not.

It's like hanging around the campfire at the end of a long day of hiking with your trail family. You never know where the conversation will go; you never know who will show up, it's always interesting, funny, and like any good trail talk will probably involve gear, food, or poop.

I really love listening to these guys! Gary & Megan are so “real”! Listening to them is like having them in your living room discussing mostly hiking, backpacking & camping; but other subjects, as well (movies; music; pop culture; etc). I’ll put it this way; I’m heading out on the AT in March of 2020. I’d love to have these guys as my “mentors”! Give them a listen!

I’ve been using this podcast as a way to keep my drive set on long distance hikes while I gather my gear and save money for my first big one coming up within the next year or so. It’s been a good way of passing the time while at work without the eye rolling I do with other similar podcasts.

It's the Mary & Gegan Show! mnom mnom, do do do do doot, mnom mnom. Green Giant (Gary) & Voldermort (Megan) are Appalachian Trail thru hikers turned podcasters who share their stories from the trail as well as a variety of hiking related guests. Definitely recommend checking it out!

Don’t care for the bouncing around of different hikers in one episode and definitely don’t care for a group of friends sitting around, drinking beer, and trying to be funny (yawn) at Trail Days. Thank God for better hiking podcasts. Moving on!

I find the format of this podcast to be quite refreshing! The presentation of the material is new and fresh, with the guest being to center of the show. Really love it!

I fell in love with Green Giant and Voldemort while reading Gary’s first book, Where’s The Next Shelter?. Now I get to listen to their stories and hear more from the trail. I am on the edge of my seat waiting for the next episode. Keep it up! Hoping to meet and maybe hike with you guys one day!

Megan and Gary where such a delight to listen to. They have an awesome chemistry together. I have read both of Gary’s books and he is one of the best story tellers I have ever heard. A must listen for people who love good stories.
