By Land Podcast
Welcome to the Podcast!
An interview-based podcast that explores the world of outdoor recreation, including topics such as backpacking, thru-hiking, hunting, mountaineering, nutrition, conservation, personal development, and more.
Most episodes are conversations with people from different walks of life and outdoor backgrounds, giving me the opportunity to learn from their experiences and perspectives. Other episodes are practical field notes on skills, gear, and lessons learned, while some are deeper reflections on ideas, questions, and observations from my own journey.
This podcast is a record of my time in the outdoors, what I'm learning, and what I continue to learn.
I hope each episode leaves you feeling inspired and encouraged to pursue whatever adventure you're dreaming of.

What People Are Saying
Emory is the most humble, level-headed, non-click baity, and underappreciated backpacking voice out there. Extremely interesting and diverse topics of conversation blended with an excellent, well-balanced and respectful delivery.

Really grateful for this podcast. After years of being at a desk, it's given me the kick I needed to get back out on the trails.

About the Show
After returning from the Pacific Crest Trail in September 2017, I wanted to stay connected to the hiking community and continue learning from other hikers and backcountry experts. I was to use “backpacking” as a foundation for other topics including gear, skills, stories, social issues, conservation, and everything in between. If it’s related to backpacking, I would cover it and more.
I taught myself what I needed to know and began reaching out to anyone willing to lend me their time for a conversation. Over 160 episodes later, I’m more passionate than ever and I hope you find these episodes to be a source of inspiration, encouragement, education, and entertainment.
