E84: Ben Moon - One of Britain's greatest ever climbers talking about his career, getting put into a headlock by Jerry Moffat and Victorian trains

The Careless Talk Climbing Podcast

It was a treat to have living legend Ben Moon on the pod this week. A lot of ground covered in an absolutely whistle-stop tour of Ben's career and replete with a fine selection of totally random tangents and rambles. Bailing from O levels because of too much physics, dossing in a cave, the birth of sport climbing, training and board climbing, how comps paid better in the 80s than they do today. It's a chat that goes all over and it was great fun for us so I hope it makes for a good listen.
