About this episode
On this episode of We Can't Do It Alone, N?n sits down with nature nerd, rock climber, and National Parks Service ranger Alex Wild to explore the ups and downs of Alex's firing and then rehiring by way of ridiculous Elon Musk's ridiculous DOGE cuts, how the empathetic and impassioned response from the public influenced his return to the park service, the stuff in life we take for granted because of our lack of awareness of its impact on us, and the inherent meaning and poetry of wilderness.
