Sierra Trading Post Introduces ‘Adventure Edge Radio with Jimmy Buff’

The Sierra Trading Post has launched a new weekly podcast program entitled “Adventure Edge Radio with Jimmy Buff“.  I am a week late on this discovery, as the podcast program started last week, but better late than never. Right?

Jimmy Buff, who hosts the program, will be familiar to some of us.  He is an adventurer and radio DJ who has worked with some of the top radio stations in New York City.  His latest venture, ‘Adventure Edge Radio’ will be featuring a weekly interview with known outdoor sports personalities, as well as covering weekly sports and outdoor news.

I have to admit that this program is pretty good.  It is an audio podcast that can play in the background without disrupting your work-to a degree.  You also have the option of downloading the program straight from the Sierra Trading Post blog.  I found myself venturing off and really trying to listen to what was going on.

The first edition of ‘Adventure Edge Radio’ featured at look at legendary long distance swimmer, Lynne Cox.  Lynne is known throughout the world for her long distance swimming abilities.  She has swam the English Channel, breaking both the mens and womens records for this event.  Lynne is also noted for her Arctic and Antarctic adventure swims.  It is a really good podcast, and if you want a nice introduction to this new series I highly recommend you start from the beginning.  You can find the first episode of Adventure Edge Radio by clicking the link, or you can download it here, for your IPod listening  pleasure.

This week’s podcast, the second in the series, features a few nice pieces.  Jimmy Buff talks with Ben Cheever, novelist and at-large writer for Runner’s World magazine.  He also gives us an inside look at the recent Badwater Ultramarathon, features an update on the search for legendary aviator Steven Fossett, and checks in with Roz Savage, who is currently atempting to row across the Pacific Ocean.  Once again, to listen to the second episode of Adventure Edge Radio, follow the link, or you can download the whole program here.

Sierra Trading Post will be featuring a new edition of Adventure Edge Radio with Jimmy Buff, every Tuesday.  Mark your calendars, or do as I did and subscribe to the Sierra Trading Post’s Blog for the latest updates.  This promises to be an interesting and informing weekly program and I wish both, Jimmy Buff and the Sierra Trading Post sucess on this latest venture.  It is nice to have a new voice in the adventure world.  Stop by and wish them well and support their program.
