E202: Tristan Chen - Recovery, pottery and the similarities between bouldering and birding

from The Careless Talk Climbing Podcast · host Sam Prior & Aidan Roberts

Long overdue, but we managed to get Tristan on the podcast. We've wanted him to come on for a long time. Tristan is a really strong climber from the south east who also has a witty and dry sense of humour which we really appreciate. Known for his hot takes and funny way of phrasing things he was great fun to have on and we enjoyed the chat immensely. Tristan recovered from Leukaemia a couple of years back and we talk about that at the start of the podcast if that's something that you wouldn't like to listen to then you can skip the first 40 minutes or so. If you're enjoying the podcast and would like to support us: https://www.patreon.com/user?u=70353823 Support the show
