Ryan Devlin is an actor who has appeared in such shows as Brothers and Sisters, Cougar Town, and Grey’s Anatomy. Climbers, however, will know him as the host of one of our favorite climbing podcasts, The Struggle Climbing Show. In this episode, we catch up with Ryan after he redpointed his hardest rock climb to date at the Red River Gorge, and hear about what it was like to share that redpoint journey with his audience.

But first, pass the xenon gas and strap in the nitro, it’s time to climb Everest, baby!

Our final bit is a blast from the early aughts, with climber Nick Smith in the Half Jeffersons.

    Pre-spraying and low-points. It seems like there is always new vocabulary to learn. I’m and old guy from the supertaco generation and barely know what climbing is about anymore. When I started it was about conquering my fear of heights. Then climbing when I knew the gear was bad. Then I realized I was going to die and stopped all that shit. Maybe I should have been a sport climber but it never really appealed to me.
