Great Adventure Outdoor Podcasts: Highlights and Insights From Veteran Hosts at Year’s End
Welcome to a special year-end edition of the Outdoor Adventure Series! In this reflective episode, host Howard Fox is joined by fellow outdoor enthusiasts, entrepreneurs, and podcasters Emanuel Rose and Rick Saez—all proud members of the Outdoor Writers Association of America.
Together, the trio dives deep into the highs and surprises of their 2023 podcasting journeys, swapping stories about new show launches (including Emanuel Rose’s prolific year of recording over 200 episodes across three podcasts), the power of relationships in the outdoor and podcasting worlds, and smart strategies to book—and vet—the perfect guests. Rick Saez discusses rebranding and evolving his show to capture even more exciting stories from the outdoor and adventure travel community, while Howard Fox unveils his plans to further explore the connections between nature, well-being, and outdoor destinations in future episodes.
This episode is packed with behind-the-scenes insights into the podcasting life: from the magic of effective guest outreach (with help from AI tools) to the lessons learned from the occasional misstep. You’ll also hear the hosts’ advice for aspiring podcasters, their candid thoughts on whether the podcasting space is truly saturated, and their dreams of hosting “Podcamp” live from the great outdoors.
Whether you’re a longtime listener, a fellow podcaster, or someone passionate about outdoor adventures and authentic conversations, this episode is an inspiring look back at a year full of growth—and an exciting preview of what’s to come. So pour yourself a coffee, settle in, and join Howard, Rick, and Emanuel for a warm, insightful, and often humorous roundtable to ring in the new year.
