Outdoor Storytelling Will Never Die
About this episode
Today Doug opens the container with writer, photographer, and editor Stephen Casimiro.
Doug starts the show by recounting his earliest experiences with outdoor magazines and how those experiences fueled a career writing about the outdoors. He reflects on the importance of storytelling for those who choose to spend time in nature and how moves like the recent layoffs by Outside magazine diminishes the opportunity for many to discover the magic of the outdoors.
Doug is then joined by Stephen Casimiro, founder and editor of Adventure Journal. Stephen talks about the evolving landscape of storytelling within the outdoor industry, emphasizing the necessity for authentic narratives that resonate with readers on a deeper level.
Doug and Stephen explore the shift from performance-oriented adventures to more contemplative engagements with nature. They also talk about the fight that is at our doorstep when it comes to protecting our public lands.
