Trail Tales Time. What's going on everybody? My name is Kyle Grady. I am a through hiker. I am a backpacker. I am a huge hiking nerd. And every single week on this podcast, I chat with other hiking nerds about their experiences on the trail. Folks, this episode is, it's amazing. I'm so hype about this episode. Might be one of my favorite ever, because it's very unique.

This week's guest is Lloyd Vogel.

He is the CEO and co-founder of Garage Grown Gear.

Now, many of you, I'm sure, are familiar with Garage Grown Gear.

And one thing I just want to say right off the top here, this is not sponsored.

He's not

paying me to come on here. The reason I wanted to have Lloyd on is because I got the chance to meet

him and we just really hit it off and he was a really cool dude. And Garage Grown Gear is a very

unique business in the hiking gear space. And so I wanted to hear all about how it came to be. And it was so fun,

dude, TrailTales has just been hopping off lately. Quadzilla last week, garage grown gear.

Next week's episode, I won't spoil it, but it's also going to be a banger. And so if you appreciate

all of that, folks, please, please,

number one, subscribe or follow the show on whatever podcast app you use.

And number two, leave a five-star review, dude.
